Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Those "five star ratings" that the official Kane & Lynch Web site used to try and trick visitors have been removed. The attention that GameBump, NeoGAF, Destructoid and other sites gave this dirty tactic obviously had an effect on Eidos taking graphics down.
Taking a look at GameBump again, they reveal a few more interesting details. […]

In a recent chat with Next-Gen, Capcom’s Chris Kramer was mum on specifics, but is very clear on one thing: We’re going to see Street Fighter IV this week.
"You’ll found out Thursday," he says of the project, which was announced in trailer form last October.

That new Dashboard Update that Microsoft released today, that’s supposed to be the epitome of all things awesome in the world? Yeeeeaaaaah, they made a bit of a booboo.

If you had the option to purchase a laptop that could dispense a burst of flavor straight into your face, which flavor would you want the most? Does the gnarly taste of World of Warcraft sound appetizing? Dell and Blizzard hope so, for they’ve teamed up to bring us the sweet-looking (but equally expensive) XPS […]

[As originally posted on Japanator]
There’s no one here at Destructoid or sister site Japanator that has posted more "Motekke! Serafuku" (the opening song from anime Lucky Star) web videos than I have. Most would say that this is nothing to be proud of, and normally I’d agree, but I would like to point out that […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
We wouldn’t expect the Senior VP of Microsoft Interactive Entertainment to say any less.
"Of course, I’m biased given the role that I’m in but if I really think about it using my consumer instincts and the experience that I’ve had, this is the best blend of performance, price, online and games - by far," says […]

We’re portrayed as violent-minded, introverted, disturbed malefactors and a lot of the perception is, to be fair, quite justified. The release of the Halo 3 homophobia video proved to highlight a very real problem on Xbox Live, that of classless, brainless […]
