Zasalamel! Say it out loud. I don’t care if you’re in your cubicle or reading this from your local Starbucks, I want you to shout "Zasalamel." Isn’t that fun? See, you shouldn’t listen to me more often.
Having kind of slept through Soulcalibur III, I had nearly forgot about this guy. But now that Namco Bandai […]

"Settle" might be a little weaksauce because Prototype looks hot! These pictures […]

You may remember our earlier post regarding DoDonPachi: Dai-ou-jou and Ketsui X, two of Cave’s greatest shooters, and how they were headed for Xbox 360 on disc format. That’s lovely, and well worthy of yard sales, but it turns out the reason behind that move isn’t something to get quite so excited about.
According to the […]

Boner alert! Hudson to release a new Alien Crush for WiiWare
