According to The Korea Times, a company called KT is teaming up with the techies at Sony to create a system by which the PlayStation 3 could serve as a set top box through which Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) broadcasts could be delivered to the home. Here’s a relevant quote:
KT, Korea’s dominant telecom operator, and […]

The DOJO week started off with Zero Suit Samus showing off her special moves. You can paralyze your opponents, fire at people’s feet and use her Plasma Whip to whip people, grab enemies, and hang from an edge. I got a little giddy when I listened to Tuesday’s update. It’s the WarioWare stage music called […]

Courtesy of Famitsu.com, we bring you the above clip: footage direct from Nintendo’s recent conference where they dropped all those huge announcements you’ve been hearing so much about.

Gamers of the world, today marks a dark, sad day. Through a press release issued today, publishing juggernaut Electronic Arts has announced that it has purchased both BioWare Corp. and Pandemic Studios.

Wanted to mention this at GSW because I’m pretty sure there are some homebrew or independent handheld game developers here - whether it be DS, PSP, cellphone, or other hardware. Therefore, this judge announcement and deadline reminder is v.worthwhile:

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
This recent NeoGAF thread contained the below screens — though no word on where they came from — from Nintendo’s upcoming Link’s Crossbow Training. The title looks prettier than it did the last time we showed off its media, but they have yet to show us something that indicates it will be anything other than […]

Professor Layton delayed in the States as Nintendo ruins Christmas
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Along with the (unsurprising) delay of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Game|Life also has word that the English version of the DS’ Professor Layton and the Curious Village has also been bumped back to February 4, 2008. This news doesn’t have the same soul-crushing, childhood-raping, Yule-stealing, Jim-Carrey-made-a-horrible-Grinch type impact that the earlier news regarding Brawl did, […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
A press release hit my inbox earlier today in which EVE Online devs CCP Games announced the release of their latest patch for the human-condition-masked-as-a-space-opera title. As we had previously mentioned, this is the release in which EVE gets the graphical facelift after four years of looking like a Heinlein day dream. The release also […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
After everyone and their dog reported on the news that Electronic Arts purchased BioWare and Pandemic earlier today, GameDaily.biz apparently went directly to the source to see what the development houses had to say for themselves. They conducted an interview with Pandemic’s Josh Resnick and Greg Borrud and BioWare’s Dr.’s Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk, […]
