Sun, 20 Jul 2008 10:51:11 MDT

WTF is going on at EA Sports? First came the manifold glitches and problems in NCAA 09, now we're seeing accounts of corrupt profiles forcing Xbox 360 racers to ditch their gamesaves and start all over. After reaching a certain level

Owen Good clipped Gridrunner+++ for XBLA Screens

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 10:27:55 MDT

Old-old-old school developer (and hooved animal enthusiast) Jeff Minter put some screenies up on his Live Journal of Gridrunner+++, the Xbox Live Arcade port of Gridrunner ++. It looks like an acid trip. There's a sheep in the upper right

UPDATED: Planet Xbox 360 just pointed us to their screenshot, and it's convincing. (Above). Ever want to roundhouse punch EA Sports honcho/former Xbox chief Peter Moore in the jaw? Astoundingly, word is you can do just that in Face Breaker, coming

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 09:51:51 MDT

While we're waiting for the real Spy updates and unlockables (and not fakes which momentarily fooled even Valve) OMFGNinja.com has gone and created an amazingly deep three-part advanced tutorial on how to play the Spy. It is mesmerizing, and showcases

Owen Good clipped HL2 Combine Elite Pic Looks like Cosplay, Is Not

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 09:41:47 MDT

This picture (full resolution after the jump) is not a cosplayer getting up to face the day as a Combine Elite soldier from Half-Life 2. It's actually a render of one into a shot of someone's bedroom. It's crazily reminiscent

Swear, I don't have a sentry gun fetish. Although it would be cool to meet a girl who did (I don't judge). Last week we churned up a video of a guy who developed a paintball sentry, and now reader

Owen Good clipped The No-Shows of E3

British Gaming Blog takes a look at the highly anticipated games that weren't demoed at E3, and the titles would form an impressive show unto themselves. If only. All Points Bulletin. Tekken 6. Indiana Jones and, I mean really Ubisoft,

Sun, 20 Jul 2008 06:47:32 MDT

Yesterday we posted pictures of guys who got their hands on Soulcalibur IV, 10 days before its release date of July 29. Today, we have video. I guess you can just walk into any store and ask them to break

Up to now, the only occurrences of a platinum blonde wig and a PSP in the same frame could be found in someone's cosplay Photobucket album. Sony probably saw that and, in the interest of portraying the real people who

@CelticMutt: That is the most brilliant comment I've read in months. Lego Blazing Saddles? I would buy any Gold/Platinum/Commemorative edition of that. My God, just for the Lego "dialogue" alone. Slim Pickens riding up at the beginning; Alex Karras punching out the horse; Hedley and Lily. Oh my God. "Somebody's got to go back and get a shitload of dimes!!!"

OK, and after this, I promise no more bashing on Nintendo's press conference. But I used to work in internal PR for a very large software company (that may or may not have produced products that rhyme with Shmorton

Owen Good clipped NCAA Football 09 Has a Shitload of Problems

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 11:14:02 MDT

Message boards and forums are livid at EA and NCAA Football 09, whose problems apparently go well beyond EA Locker corrupting the roster files. AOL Fanhouse went through the boards and made a full accounting, and it's grim.

Owen Good clipped MGS Technical Advisor Busted for Shipping Weapons Parts

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 10:54:58 MDT

Damn, does this count as simulating a "war economy" too? Gamepolitics picked up an item out of Tacoma, Wash. that a former technical advisor on the original Metal Gear Solid faces a federal charge of attempted parts smuggling. The parts

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 10:32:59 MDT

Penny Arcade nails it in three panels. Then F@NBOY$ goes and re-nails it in seven. Well, they re-nail Nintendo's cringe-inducing presser, anyway. Both full size strips are on the jump. Sorry to do that, but at front-page width you can't make

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 09:55:45 MDT

Wasn't there to see it, don't know, as this is the E3 Gameplay Trailer for Lego Batman, but it has no sound. Not sure if that's a bug or intentional. But it begins with Lego Riddler sitting on a toilet,

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 09:27:14 MDT

Reader Sourside21 found four Photobucket images of Soulcalibur IV breaking the street date by about 10 days. Well, maybe. It looks like these guys are playing it in the back of a store, so maybe they're employees (or friends) playing

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 21:33:12 MDT

This is absolutely parody. It could be unintentional self-parody. Or it could be someone masquerading as a PS3 fanboy to parody that particular constituency. But it's parody. A guy who gives the announcement of Final Fantasy XIII for the 360
