Well, here’s one game not peeing its pants at the first sight of the words “Modern Warfare 2.” Activision (which probably explains it) announced today that Blur will be out in November. November 2009. The racer – Bizarre’s first since leaving the Project Gotham series behind – hasn’t exactly captured the public’s hearts and minds…
I’ve got a soft spot for Keith David. A big one. It’s got nothing to do with his video game work, and everything to do with They Live and The Thing. So it’s good to hear he’ll be in Modern Warfare 2! I look forward to him playing a gruff Sergeant, barking orders at me…
Just in case you’re feeling the need to put on a thick NY Italian accent today and say off-the-cuff things about other people’s mothers and punching faces, here’s some Mafia II screens for inspiration.
Having already updated the Games on Demand lineup once this week, with Saints Row, Microsoft have announced the addition of two more games to the 360’s digital delivery service. Both are racing titles, namely EA’s Need for Speed ProStreet and Criterion’s Burnout Revenge. Both will be available next Tuesday, August 25. In addition to those…
Borderlands is on show at Gamescom. And tonight, it’s on show at Kotaku, with a ton of real, in-game screenshots.
With Gamescom raging across the Atlantic, you’d think the US PlayStation Store update would be full of demos and trailers from the show. But no! Instead, Americans, you get Bloody Roar. The kitsch fighter becomes one of only a handful of PS1 games released on the US store, and is joined this week by PSN…
Crytek feel that it’s time to start teasing Crysis 2. But not with cutscenes, or gameplay. No, they figured you’d enjoy some commercials for the game’s new Nanosuit instead.
This is…different. Square Enix have issued a statement claiming that “certain unknown parties” based in Canada have been sending counterfeit cheques to random homes across the United States. Cheques that say “Square Enix” on them. It’s not a new practice, we know; this kind of scam has been running for decades. But using Square Enix’s…
The Beatles: Rock Band may well be a treat for Beatles fans, but if you’re not a Beatles fan? You’ll be happy to know that Harmonix will next year be back to games with a little more variety. Asked by MCV whether Harmonix and MTV Games would in 2010 be releasing Rock Band 3 or…
Lionhead aren’t up to showing any real footage from Fable III. Shame. What they are up to showing is some behind the scenes stuff. Like how they plan out thrilling…sitting sequences.
SOTA toys will in December be releasing two Cammy figures. Not one. Two. One in her original costume, one in her more “formal” uniform. They’ll be sold for $90 each if you want to buy them individually. And if you do, hey, that’s cool. We’re not judging. But as you can see, you might want…
Konami have this week shown off an extended version of the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow trailer we first saw at E3. What’s so extended? Some in-game footage, that’s what’s extended.
This game’s been doing the rounds for a few days now, but I figured, what better way to break up all the Gamescom news than with something like…this. “I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!!1” is its real, actual name, it’s only $1 from the XBL Indie Games section, and really, I’d pay $1 just for…
Attendees at Blizzcon this weekend will be given a little treat for their troubles. A schwag bag. And in that schwag bag will be this little guy. It’s a delightful little Jim Raynor in full combat armour, with its “OMG limited edition value” increased by the giant “Blizz Con” logo on his shoulder plate. Those…
As seen on Joystiq.
The premise of LEGO Universe, an MMO set in the… LEGO universe has always sounded appealing. But never looked appealing, because until now, we haven’t had a chance to see what it’ll look like from the consumer end of things. These screens show not just a taste of the diversity you can expect from the…
Ubisoft announced today that, later this year, PC gamers will get a chance to dip their toes into a R.U.S.E. beta, which will offer successful applicants “an extended preview of the multiplayer experience.” To enter (it’s called a “VIP” beta, so not everyone will get in), you have to head over to the game’s website…
What would a major gaming show be without new screenshots from a major game by a major developer? Nothing, that’s what. Nothing.
Valve announced yesterday that five classic Interplay titles have been released on Steam. Well, six if you count the fact one of them is a bundle offer. Most people will head straight for Fallout. Or Fallout 2. Or Fallout Tactics. Or even the Fallout Collection, bundling all three. That’s cool, Fallout’s all the rage right…
Sega’s Aliens vs Predator is at Gamescom. Know what it reminds me of? You know when bloom lighting first came on the scene, and some games went a little overboard with it? It reminds me of that.
