Quick! Name that game. If you said anything with the words Resident and Evil in it, you’re wrong, but don’t be hard on yourself for confusing Gameloft’s upcoming iPhone game Zombie Infection with Capcom’s long-lived “not a zombie” game. The third-person shooter co-stars and man and woman working for a secret government agency assigned to…
Gameloft’s upcoming release of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Conviction looks to bring over the feel and style of the Splinter Cell reboot to the iPhone in a four to five hour experience. And in many ways, it seems to succeed. My time spent playing the game on the iPhone yesterday gave me a chance to…

Ready? Fight! Because Street Fighter IV is coming to Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch. As Kotaku posted previously, the game is played like most iPhone titles, press “buttons” in the corner of the screen. The virtual button and joystick do take up a great deal of on-screen real estate. It is worth noting that the…

It’s easy to post pictures of your current gaming rig, your oodles of games, to brag about achievements and trophies, but none of that means a thing. True gamers have roots and I want to see them. What do I mean? Take for instance this picture, circa 1987, of my bedroom. Note the distinct lack…

I think the video says it all. Now, how can I get this guy to follow me around at GDC? [Thanks AcidAngel]
