Dead Rising 2 has a multiplayer mode that’s more Running Man than Walking Dead. Here, courtesy of Gamereactor, is a little footage showing how it all works. Dead Rising 2 gameplay [Gamereactor]
DirectX11 hits alongside Windows 7 later this month, and with it will usher in a new generation of pretty, oh so pretty PC games. Yet the first game to support DirectX11 won’t be a shooter. Instead, it’s Battleforge, EA’s card-trading strategy game. Not the most obvious choice, we know, but then, you gotta start somewhere.…
Play Arts, the action figure branch of Square Enix, are making some Bayonetta figures. A quick comparison between the size of the head and the size of the hips shows they’re definitely on the right track. These were on display at the Tokyo Game Show last week, though both a price and release date are…
Sony today released a bunch of new Gran Turismo 5 screens. They’re all from replay mode of course, so don’t expect things to look like this in-game, but still…they are lovely, aren’t they?
The calendar says “2009”. The Xbox 360 launched in 2005. That means we’re four years into the “next generation” of video gaming. If so, then where the hell are our “next generation” games? It’s something that’s been gnawing at me for a while now, but as we approach Christmas 2009 – the fifth holiday season…

While Guitar Hero is a license to print money, DJ Hero is less of a sure bet. For all we know, it may stink up the joint! That’s not bothering Activision, though, as they’re already looking for more developers. More developers, and more artists. According to GI.biz, “at least one independent UK games developer” is…
Those that made their way through to the “end” of Knights of the Old Republic 2 will be aware that the game they just “finished” wasn’t anything of the sort. Tight timeframes ended up in a rushed development cycle, in turn resulting in a game that had huge chunks missing from the final, playable product.…
Just when you think Tetris has been done to death, a bunch of skateboarders turn up in the middle of the night with neon lights strapped to their heads and roll down a street. [via Neatorama]
Errol and Pifie have written a walkthrough to help you beat the grand-daddy of text adventure games, Zork. You won’t find it on Gamefaqs, however, because it’s written as a rockin’ three-minute song. It’s called Walkthrough, and was penned as part of the 50/90 songwriting challenge, where entrants must write 50 songs in 90 days.…
The Star Wars: Darth Vader Wii Sensor Bar. For those with $50 lying around the house and a need to make it look like the Dark Lord of the Sith is ecnased in the carbonite of your entertainment unit. Looks awful. Though, with that GIANT LIGHTSABER, we’re sure a few will be scooped up by…
The Final Fantasy XIII Trailer from TGS sure was epic, no? Pity for us English-speakers it was all in Japanese. Not so this trailer, which has been thoughtfully subtitled for your viewing pleasure. If only Square Enix’s localisation teams worked this fast…
According to “a trusted source” speaking with Joystiq, the production company run by former Disney boss Michael Eisner is looking at putting together a Mechwarrior movie. Which is a terrible idea. Not because I hate Mechwarrior; far from it, I adore Battletech. It’s just, giant robot fighting on the big screen has already been perfected…
The odd compatibility hiccup aside, when you buy a Rock Band guitar or a Guitar Hero drum kit, you expect it’ll work on multiple games. Not so for the upcoming DJ Hero‘s peripheral. “DJ Hero is DJ Hero”, FreeStyleGames’s Jamie Jackson told Destructoid. “If someone needed to use our controller, then they would basically have…
No let-up for sales of Aion this week, which if it keeps this up may well rank as one of the biggest surprise hits of the year on the PC. The MMO took the top two spots on both the Steam and Direct2Drive charts, leaving other big releases like Fallen Earth, Resident Evil 5 and…
Sony have a chequered past when it comes to advertising their consoles. Some ads have been memorable, others, highly controversial. And while they’re now just mostly memorable in the US and Europe, in Chile, they’re…using Nazis. These two award-winning print ads, put together by Chilean agency BBDO, depict a Regular Joe – presumably someone who…
No more complaining about a teaser trailer: here are two clips showing more Super Street Fighter IV gameplay than you or a large stereotypical Native American Indian could possibly handle.
So, Super Street Fighter IV is real, and it’s not quite what we were expecting. Neither is this trailer, which features zero new characters and zero gameplay footage.
Because if you do, you’ll be paying too much. Instead of the promised 560MSP price point, the Left 4 Dead expansion has hit the Xbox Live Marketplace at 800MSP. You might want to wait until it’s fixed. And fixed it will be, Microsoft’s Larry Hryb confirming that the price is indeed a mistake, and not…
Oh dear. I really feel sorry for the person at EA marketing who thought highlighting this woman was a good idea.
