We get our fair share of ‘interesting’ people calling in to the Gamasutra/Game Developer offices, mainly because we have our phone numbers listed in public. And the latest of these would be the inventor who’s started GameKeyboard.com, and is looking to license his patented (or patent pending, not quite sure) use of directional keys […]

Red Bull, the stop-gap solution for all of those wannabe tweakers out there, has decided it wants to dip an unsteady wing into the fertile waters of Lake VideoGameDevelopment. According to Wired's nubile, younger sister Game|Life, El Rojo Toro has teamed with Freestyle Games, a development group most recently hailed for the gripping, sordid tale […]

EA thinks Friends Codes are stupid, not using ‘em for Madden ‘08 on Wii
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Whether we'd take a Bullet Bill for Mario or just as soon kick Luigi in the nuts, if there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that the Friend Codes system that Nintendo has in place for the Wii and DS is stupid. It's also dumb, it smells funny, and is consistently picked last […]

Today when Sony Online Entertainment officially announced The Agency, an espionage themed MMO for the PC and PlayStation 3, I was stunned.
Not by the concept — it's about time more MMOs start shedding the wizard and troll formula of old. I was also not stunned by the game's visuals — it looks polished and competent […]

Look I drink…
And if anyone can make me laugh at Guitar Hero, it has to be the guys at mailordercomedy. I could write more, but it would be pointless. Like the time I tried to marry a piece of Bluberry pie. Wait. That was Family Guy wasn't it. Regardless… just watch the video, it ROCKS!

Little slow on the uptake, here, but GameSniped is a fairly new site that does a great job of rounding up all the obscure, weird, and otherwise neat eBay video game rarities - lots of prototype hardware, software and merchandising - with new items listed daily.
The current highlight for oddness seems to be Sony […]

You know how it works. With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised video game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones. This week's theme is pretty simple, but I threw in a trick puzzle to hopefully make […]

For some reason, I am seemingly alone in feeling that the Wii version of Resident Evil 4 is inferior to the original Gamecube version. It looks about the same despite "true widescreen support", it adds no additional content whatsoever beyond what was available in the PS2 version, but most importantly, the Wiimote greatly impairs […]

NeoGAF spotted this Wii game that a French developer is working on. After seeing little of Sadness over the past year, I wouldn't bet that this game gets released any time soon, if ever, but these screenshots have me hoping. The best way I can sum up this game's visuals is Guillermo […]
