CNN, Ted Turner's foray into the acrimonious world of televised dog-wagging, launched its first foray into gaming recently with the release of Presidential Pong, a Flash title destined to be exactly as entertaining as the original Pong; that is, not at all.
While this newly politicized update of the classic adds special abilities for the […]

The blog Error Macro has been, for a fair few months now, one of the neater daily-summarized game link blogs around. But unfortunately, the author has decided to give his intensive RSS-ing a rest, as he explains in Part 1 of his ‘Guide To Video Game News Sites’, his parting present to his readers.

Destructoid’s games of the week for 06/10/07: HR nightmare edition!
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
To whom it may concern,

Oh Mega64, you've done it again. You have filled me with delight and pleasured my crotch region with your wonderful and deranged videos. Their latest skits were for Call of Jaurez and if these videos don't make you want to buy the game, then there is something wrong with you. That, or you probably […]

Brothers in Arms DS trailer, or, Holy God, that’s running on a handheld?
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
You guys remember when the ill-fated Resident Evil Game Boy Color port was announced, and the trailers and screenshots made us all crap our pants? I'm getting a similar pants-crappin' feeling watching this Brothers in Arms DS trailer, due out in August from Ubi Soft. Not every day that you see 3D games on Nintendo's […]

Seems a shame that the fighting game competition community doesn’t get much coverage outside its niche - and the Evo East regional qualifiers just happened, so Empire Arcadia was there with an in-depth report on the event that’s worth checking out to get an idea of the scene nowadays.
As they note: “Fighting game enthusiasts […]

After ten years, Capcom's CPS3 arcade system board has finally been decrypted.

Look I drink…
And I have been through the ringer lately. Over what you might ask. Well, that would be something that I personally can't discuss. But… and this is a big one. I can in fact bring you news that any company has made public.
