Hands-on: Destructoid, Joystiq join forces for Rock Band’s ‘World Tour’ mode
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | 
Leave a Comment
Let me say this right now: Rock Band is an absolutely massive game experience. Deceptively simple on its surface (Harmonix’s Guitar Hero game mechanics mixed with some drums and a dash of Karaoke Revolution), there are more layers of depth to Harmonix’s new "platform" than Gene Simmons has removed panties. Sure, all of the expected […]

PlayStation Netowork Update: ultra late edition
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
The only thing we know for sure about PlayStation Network updates is that they happen on Thursday, but Sony has never been consistent in the times that they release the content. It may just be me, but it seems really late today. I was expecting something really cool for the wait.
Was it worth all the […]

Tired of only being able to play "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" in the stressful boss battle against Lou? I don’t blame you — the dude is a huge prick after all. Everything is going to be just fine though, as a new song pack is now available for Guitar Hero III (Xbox 360 […]

The first two Call of Duty games were widely praised as the next step in the first-person shooter genre. They had bombastic action sequences, gripping storylines and enough Nazi-bashing to make George Patton squeal like a young girl. Even today they stand out as the finest examples of the ultra-over-saturated World War II FPS subgenre, […]

Toronto Spawns Artsy Games Incubator
Category: | Leave a Comment
Jim Munroe is a nice chap who runs the No Media Kings organization up in Toronto - you might have heard of him in relation to games because of his ‘Freeware Rebellion’ mini-doc, or his satirical GTA machinima ‘My Trip To Liberty City’.
In any case, he just sent out his latest newsletter, and nestled […]

Meeting in the Square-Enix Boardroom, 1 pm
Japanese guy in suit: So, we need to launch some new product for the holidays. We don’t have any major titles launching so we need a way to rake in money.
Japanese guy with spiky hair: We could make some new Cloud figures.
Japanese guy with earring: There’s only so many […]

Rumor: House of the Dead 2 & 3 coming to the Wii
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
GameFly let slip that House of the Dead 2 & 3 will be coming out for the Wii at the end of March next year. Although Sega hasn’t even announced that they are working on the game, GameFly has rarely ever been wrong.
House of the Dead 2 & 3 would be a perfect fit for […]

There’s something about the Conan franchise that brings a smile to my face without fail. The sheer testosterone-fueled, immature male fantasy aspect of it all is certainly worth a chuckle. Conan is not a sophisticated man, but then, males generally aren’t. He drinks, he fights, he shags, and that’s about it. Somewhere along the line, […]
