Leave a Comment
Some new test footage of Jetpack Brontosaurus has been released. In this first video, it shows off how the Brontosaurus can fly around and land on the simple test level. From the new information, it looks like the game will be set in some sort of dream world. The colors change randomly and you can […]

Straight up, I always thought that Meta Knight was one of the dumbest looking videogame characters ever created. It’s like they tried to make a gray golf ball look bad ass by slapping some ill-fitting armor on it. At least the the pink blob known as Kirby is kind of cute, even though he kind […]

[Think the reaction to Adam Maxwell’s game writing article was over? Not so - Kelly Wand, the writer on the Dirty Harry game discussed in the original opinion piece, has penned an editorial explaining Harry’s (mis)conception and why game writers matter.]

YTMND Thursday: There will be blood … and dance!
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Hopefully you all get at least one good laugh from one of these YTMNDs. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s becoming harder to find good ones. Some weeks are good (like last week), and some weeks are just a pain in the ass to find some laugh out loud worthy links.
My favorite of this […]

Atlus explains why their games are a real bitch to find
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Ask anyone who missed an Atlus title’s launch and attempted to pick it up later how hard finding their games can be. The only thing worse than being the gamer who tries to find the recommended Atlus title "too late" is being the "responsible" game buyer that let a good one slip through the cracks. […]

Nifty UMD-shaped PSP device stores four memory sticks
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Face it: there are plenty of gamers out there that will never find themselves sticking a UMD into their PlayStation Portable. It doesn’t matter if they’re A/V fiends, legal beagle downloaders or homebrewers; if there’s no UMD in the PSP slot, it’s basically wasted space.
Why be wasteful? Team Xecuter isn’t. That’s why they’re announcing their […]

Developers and publishers warm up to the PSP, shipments up 85%
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
After the PSP’s launch in 2005, gamers became increasingly down in the mouth about Sony’s first portable attempt. There was a serious lack of quality titles, and some worried that it would become a "port machine." Times have definitely changed. Two years later, we’re seeing top notch original releases, and sales are up from last […]

Turns out the April issue of UK Xbox magazine has been sporting an "Available now" graphic with their info on the game, and […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Here’s a bit of history for you folks: John Madden has had his name on EA-developed football games since the Reagan era. The first was John Madden Football, which came out for the C64 and Apple II on June 1, 1988 (it was also later released for the Genesis). The most recent was Madden NFL […]

Best Buy holds Wii for Women event this Sunday
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
While the small percentage of female gamers out there are constantly bombarded with undermining crap, there are some female-specific things about gaming that seem more or less free of gender judgement. Or maybe Best Buy just wants chicks gaming in their stores to attract men’s attention. Either way, they are sponsoring an event in their […]
