It’s been nearly three months since a new character has been announced for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. After weeks and weeks of (mostly) boring filler, today’s DOJO update reveals Captain Olimar from Pikmin as a playable character in Brawl.

Yoiks, all kinds of new GameSetLinks goodness here, including designer David Sirlin waxing lyrical about Every Extend Extra Extreme, as well as Brenda Brathwaite discussing how Facebook games propagate and spread virally.
Actually, these things are radically different, but oddly, they both resonate with me in alternate ways - since they’re about alternate social and […]

LucasArts was kind enough to invite me out to their private suite to see the latest build of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Unfortunately, they weren’t kind enough to give me some hands on time, but the game looks amazing, so I’ll let that slide this time.

England hates BioShock, loves FIFA: 2007’s UK sales chart is blasphemy
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
The UK overall sales chart of 2007 has been released, and it shows a few interesting notes, a few obvious points and at least one absolute instance of complete and utter fail.

The game in question is, of course, Space Station Silicon Valley. Developed by DMA Design (now known […]
