Mike Fahey — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 11:20:00 EST

Millions of people will be lining up around midnight on Wednesday evening for the launch of World of Warcraft's latest expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, but the lining up promises to be much more entertaining at the Best Buy at 44th Street and 5th Avenue in New York, New York. That's Blizzard's chosen store for East Coast Wrath-tivities, with co-founders CEO Mike Morhaime and executive VP of product development Frank Pearce on hand to sign copies of the game. They'll even have former Kotaku guest editor Geoff Keighley on hand to act as the master of ceremonies for the event, with interviews, trivia, and prizes to be had by all. More »

Spike TV Kicks Off Madden 09 Tonight

Mike Fahey — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:20:00 EDT

I honestly cannot think of a better channel to host a special countdown to the launch of EA's Madden NFL 09 than good old Spike TV. This is the audience the channel was born to capture. They'll have Geoff Keighley broadcasting live from the Rosebowl, a performance by Good Charlotte, and a special presentation of the movie Rudy. Of course hardcore East Coast Madden fans will have already left to fill their bellies with beer before waiting in line to get the game at midnight, but perhaps they'll leave their TVs on at home to help a station out.

Guess Who's On GameTrailers TV Tonight?...

Michael McWhertor — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 20:20:27 EST

Guess Who's On GameTrailers TV Tonight? Just me, Michael McWhertor, unfortunately. If you're up late on a Friday and want to watch a sweater-off between me and GT TV host Geoff Keighley, one in which we occasionally wax about the big games of 2008, tune into Spike TV at 1 AM. Oh, it's so worth staying up for, especially if my statements about Xbox 360 furries haven't been left on the cutting room floor. Bold predictions and regrettable assumptions, plus fodder for mocking my opinions and fashion choices, will make for a great way to kill some AM hours. Don't miss it! Or do! Whatever! More »

First Look At Tiberium On GT TV

Michael McWhertor — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 17:20:00 EST

First person shooters may be a dime a dozen, but Tiberium, the subject of recent Game Informer and GT TV exclusives has something we're nerding out over—a transforming gun. It doesn't magically transition into a twenty foot-tall robot a la Decepticon leader Megatron, but it does make for some geeky chills amongst an otherwise "me too" shooter set in the Command & Conquer universe. Maybe we're just jaded, as the air drops and squad tactics actually sound super neat-o, and it may just be the rather dreary look and feel that's a bit of a turn off. More »

If you're short on energy and trucker speed, the show will be available soon on Xbox Live and Gametrailers.com. More »

Game Head Ends, GameTrailers TV Begins

Mike Fahey — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 13:20:00 EST

After two and a half years as the best thing to watch if you were home sick on a Friday night without anything better to do, Spike TV's Game Head is ending its run, but fear not for former Kotaku Geoff Keighley. He returns to the network triumphantly in January as the host of GameTrailers TV, and he's bringing along a posse with him. GameTrailers.com's Daniel Kayser and Amanda MacKay will be joining Geoff on the new show, which will feature event coverage, news, and of course, world premier video game trailers.

"I think of it as Game Head on steroids because we'll have more resources and coverage," Keighley says. "It broadens the events we can cover around the country and the world."

Visitors to the GameTrailers website will be able to upload questions before the shows that might be included in the show itself, giving the whole thing a sort of ghetto interactivity that really makes me miss G4TV.com. GameTrailers TV premiers January 25th in that awesome 1am time slot. More »
