It’s hard to believe, but after over a decade’s wait Starcraft II is finally upon us. It’s something Blizzard is only too happy to remind us of with this cinematic commercial for the game. While most – maybe even all – of this clip is comprised of footage from previous trailers, it’s still a sight…
Earlier today, Microsoft apparently slipped up and showed Metal Gear Rising’s box art on the Xbox Live Marketplace. It’s gone now, but the internet, she never forgets. If this is indeed what happened, it’s…yeah, it’s a game cover! One that may change, since the game is nowhere near release! Metal Gear fans will be thrilled,…
Forget the A-Team you know and love. This movie is nothing like it. And it’s all the better for it. That’s not a slight against the original! I loved it as a kid, and still love it to this day. But the A-Team TV series was a thing built of the 1980s, for the 1980s.…
Shooters dominate the modern video game landscape, as evidenced by the sheer number of them being shown off at this year’s E3. Here are console and PC shooters we think are going to be the biggest ones on show. They may be fresh in our minds, they may have been first unveiled at last year’s…
Please print off and distribute to Hollywood film executives. As seen on UGO
There have been Bayonetta figures before. This Bayonetta figure, though, is not Bayonetta. It’s Jeanne. Not as iconic, perhaps, but she’s definitely more feathery I hate the hip joints on these Square Enxi figures. Makes them look like a discontinued line of GI Joe figures from 1986. Still, she is highly posable, and there’s some…
Slapstick indie “fighting” game Sumotori Dreams has a little brother, Sumotori Soccer, which with football fever gripping the world at the moment is definitely worth a look. It’s the same deal as Sumotori Dreams: two ragdoll models, which are almost impossible to control, stagger around an arena like they’ve just knocked back a bottle of…
There were doubts whether Simon Peter’s mysterious Centaurian could live up to its debut trailer. Having now played the game, those doubts have been hacked to pieces by a giant purple dildo. Centaurian plays a bit like Canabalt. If Canabalt was a gay Viking whose two favourite things in the world were Pitfall and Iron…
The public relations war we sometimes call E3 has begun a few days early, it seems, with Microsoft’s Aaron Greenberg taking to Twitter to fire a shot across Sony’s bow in the leadup to the big trade show. I’m sure it was intended to rally the Xbox 360 fanboys to the flag for the next…
Not everyone loved the inclusion of a free version of Pac-Man on Google’s home page. In fact, one old lady was so incensed she felt the need to call Google tech support. I know old people can be frail, and a little slow with technology at times, but this is a bit much. The guy…
Is the bottom about to fall out of Nintendo’s software market? Namco Bandai certainly thinks so, saying the market for games on both the Wii and DS has “collapsed”. “It’s a tough market,” Namco Bandai’s Olivier Comte told MCV. “We had a lot of product, and the average quality of a game on DS and…
Rock Band 3 will, as expected, let you do something you’ve never been able to do in a Rock Band (or Guitar Hero) game before: play the keyboard. Yes, the fifth wheel of the rock world makes its long-overdue debut in Harmonix’s Rock Band 3, a report on USA Today showcasing not only the new…
Did you know Kevin Tancharoen, the man behind yesterday’s amazing Mortal Kombat short, shot it in just two days? And that much of the work was done for free? You do now. Tancharoen say down for an interview with Collider earlier today, and spoke about how the short film was made, and what he hopes…
A second video trumpeting the “PS4” also drops a half second hint that we may be seeing Modern Warfare 2 in 3D in the near future. Like the first one, this viral ad takes place in a lab, with a consumer/gamer acting the guinea pig while presumably evil Sony scientists test out 3D gaming on…
It’s raining here at the moment, so I’d like to start your day with some cheery music and sunshine, courtesy of Southend’s adorable puzzler Ilomilo Nothing’s changed since we last saw the game. It still looks chirpy, still looks gorgeous, and its space-bending puzzles look like a neat take on a formula laid down by…
Wonder why James Rhodes looks different between the first Iron Man movie and the second? Allow Pokemon to explain. As seen on Fork Party (click through for full version).
Achievement Point Trivia is an iPhone app that’s as self-explanatory as it gets. For $0.99, you can download the application and test your knowledge of arcane, useless Xbox 360 trivia. Sure, everyone knows about Dead Rising’s “Zombie Genocider”, or Crackdown’s orb fetish, but APT should put you under the hammer in its three game modes…
Hey, Scott Pilgrim fans: head over to Game Informer for the first in-game shots of the upcoming adaptation of a movie adapted from a comic book.
EA Sports is a little late showing off this year’s FIFA football title. Must have been World Cup fever keeping them busy. This gallery shows…well, not much! Old kits are on display, and the static images don’t really give you much of an idea on any tweaks or improvements made to the gameplay. Those promised…
I’m not sure who would grant a medical license to such an inattentive Sim, but then, there are millions of Sims tragics out there who would do anything for their series of choice. Even endanger the lives of small children. The ultimate blame for this tragedy, though, must surely be placed in the hands of…
