[ Update: Breaking the site has concluded momentarily, thanks everyone for the encouragement, poetry, and thoughts on the future. In addition to the fresh coat of paint we will be adding some more interactivity as well — but I alone am incapable of building Sparta over a few tacos this evening. Look for more shoe […]

As I mentioned briefly in our PlayStation 3 giveaway, Destructoid has some pretty big news about our jolly unison of sapsuckers coming in four days. Mark your calendars: on the 18th I command you to swing by and see what the hell I’m needlessly hyping about here. In the meantime, I thought a little design […]

Ah yes, worth cross-posting that the new issue of our rather educational magazine is out - and in fact, if you’re a subscriber or were at Austin GDC, you will have probably picked up a copy already. Here goes:
“The September 2007 issue of Game Developer magazine, the sister print publication to Gamasutra.com, and the […]

Cat’s in Pajamas: Harry Chapin just got Quad Damage
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
The above video comes courtesy of the stoner deitys at Super Deluxe. It’s easy to write them off based on their website — or star Dana Snyder’s work on Aqua Teen Hunger Force – as exploiting the easily amused youth of America whose attention spans have been so stunted by modern media as to actually […]

Midway ‘07 Holiday Event: Ultimate Mortal Kombat DS
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
If Street Fighter is Monopoly, and Virtua Fighter is chess, then I think it’s safe to say the Mortal Kombat series is the Tic-Tac-Toe. As popular (and controversial) as the series has been, there’s no argument that Midway’s fighter has been one of the least respected of the fighting game franchises.
Sure, when Mortal Kombat went […]

Spotlight: PixelJunk Racers, Q-Games, And PixelJunk Sequels
Category: PlayStation 3 | Leave a Comment
So, you may have spotted that Q-Games’ indie title PixelJunk Racers, which appears to be something along the lines of slot-car racing for the 21st century (woo!), debuts on the PlayStation Network today. But something you may not have spotted (and I just did, thanks to Brandon Boyer!) is that there are teaser images for […]

Newlaunches has the details on a crazy-huge Nintendo DS mod called the Jumbotron DS, which is […]

WSVG has been fragged, effective immediately: Millions homeless, stunned.
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Game|Life has word (corroborated seconds ago by the WSVG home page) of the end of an era in gaming: the shuttering of the World Series of Video Games. We’ve brought you news on the WSVG’s ventures before, from their dealings with major television entities to … actually that’s it. I just went through our entire […]

Uwe Boll snaps up film license for unreleased game: Facepalm ensues
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Love him or hate him, one can’t deny Uwe Boll’s determination to make movies in the face of life itself telling him he can’t. As if to further prove his dominion over the forces of common sense, Lord Boll has now decided to make movies of games that don’t even exist yet. Legend: Hand of […]

Combine one part HAL 9000 problem (disobedience!) and one part Xbox 360 problem (Red Ring of Death!) and you’ll get the most cleverest shirt ever made!
If you’re not careful, your 360 may jettison you out an air-lock. The red ring of death is just the first sign that something has gone terribly wrong and not […]
