One of PlayStation Home‘s biggest drawbacks to date has been that it’s so…disconnected from the rest of the console. Making it an impractical thing. Home v1.3 is looking to change that. As we liveblogged, sometime this “fall”, Home will be upgraded to v1.3, and with that upgrade a host of changes will be made to…
If only we could actually visit an island that sold itself to the world by letting you attach a truck to a helicopter, take off then use the truck as a wrecking ball to blow up a gas station. Below, the clip. And below that: a bonus! The game’s box art.
Part of what’s got me so interested in Brink is the game’s visuals. A pinch of Crackdown, a dash of Mirror’s Edge, whisk for 30 seconds and hey presto, you’ve got Brink’s paradise island metropolis gone wrong.
It was always going to be a struggle squeezing everything from the PS3 version of LBP into the PSP version. Something had to give. Turns out that something is multiplayer. “The one thing we’ve lost is multiplayer,” Sony’s Mark Green told Eurogamer. “You’ve got full physics systems, you got full create mode, you’ve got all…
This starts off as a developer diary. Don’t let that bother you. For starters, the clip is full of in-game action. And secondly…their Scandinavian accents are just so soothing.
There were the faintest of rumblings about this a couple of months ago, but now that GRIN are officially out of business, it can come to light that they’d been working on…a Final Fantasy game. Professional resume snoop superannuation has uncovered some concept art and CV listings for a game code-named “Fortress”, which we’re all…
Like other racing games, Gran Turismo is often criticised for offering up screenshots that are…well, not what you’ll see in the game. Which is why we like these screens so much. They’re exactly what you’ll see in the game.
We don’t love the “new” Transformers. Not one bit. They’re too…impersonal to care about, and too spiky to cuddle. Nothankyou. Seems Activision are aware of this, as there’s more G1 characters coming to their Transformers movie game. Like who? Like Megatron. Joining the Decepticon leader in Revenge of the Fallen’s upcoming DLC pack are old-school…
Publisher Take-Two (and its little siblings 2K and Rockstar) have a big presence at Gamescom this year. Want to see how big? Here’s a tour of their booth.
We may still have a little trouble describing the game, but trust us, Brink is shaping up nicely. As is the game’s Gamescom booth!
Those Dutch retailers knew what they were talking about. During Sony’s Gamescom press conference yesterday, it was announced that Europe will finally be getting some pre-paid PSN cards of their own. They’ll be available next month, and come in two flavours: €20 & €50 for Euro-using types, £20 and £50 for Britons and $30 &…
That was fast! Having released Empire: Total War earlier this year, Creative Assembly have announced that the next game in the series will be out in 2010. Don’t expect anything too different from Empire, however, as Napolean: Total War will pick up right where the last game left off, following the campaigns of the little…
What the hell is wrong with you, Volition? You think providing cheap, substantial DLC that expands meaningfully upon the core game is good for us? Well, it’s not! We want to be nickel-and-dimed! We want to pay $5 for a new suit for Alex, or $10 for a new hammer and eXtreme paintjob for Martian…
So many games at EA’s booth. Driving games, army games, people games, sports games…so many, many games. How many? See for yourself.
Want some Fable III screens? Sorry, there are no Fable III screens. So we’ll all just settle for the next best thing, and that’s these two pieces of artwork.
In 2006 the PS3 was large, and mighty, and able to stand on its own two feet. In 2009, though, it has aged, and it has shrunk, to the point where it needs some help just to stay upright. These pics weren’t sent around to Western press yesterday, but they were made available to Japanese…
This won’t have any real effect on you, the consumer, but it’s still interesting to note that with yesterday’s launch of the PS3 Slim, Sony were doing more than redesigning a plastic shell. They were rebranding the entire console. One of the countless press releases we received from Sony yesterday gave implicit instructions that we…
Let’s see, what have we got here…DJ Hero, Modern Warfare 2, DJ Hero, Guitar Hero 5, Mike McWhertor…yup, this looks a lot like Activision’s Gamescom booth.
In addition to announcing Fable III, Lionhead boss Peter Molyneux has also revealed that Fable II is to be re-released as an episodic, pay-per-episode title. It’ll launch on September 29, with the game broken up into five chapters. The first chapter will be free, and when you get to the end of it, you’ll be…
It’s time for Microsoft’s Gamescom press conference! Let’s all pull up a chair, grab a cup of tea and see what’s happening, yes?
