Sony’s super-enjoyable Fat Princess was originally slated to be released in June. That’s this month! Now, sadly, it turns out it won’t be out this month. Instead, it will now be out “at some point this summer”. So sometime in July or August, then. Shame, but if it gives them extra time to make it…
Splinter Cell: Conviction was one of the best games we saw at E3. No, wait, it was the best game we saw at E3. Which is good news for 360 and PC owners! Not so good news for PS3 owners. And that’s because the game isn’t slated to appear on the PS3. Just the 360…
Blizzard have released the third of their “Battle Reports“, in-depth videos showing off some of the finer features of upcoming RTS powerhouse Starcraft II.
Bear in mind there’s a degree of saber-rattling to this, but still; Activision boss Bobby Kotick has warned Sony that his company – the world’s largest third-party publisher – may cease support for the PS3 and PSP. Speaking with The Times, Kotick said “I’m getting concerned about Sony; the PlayStation 3 is losing a bit…
It may have been a slow week on the North American PlayStation Store, but it’s even slower in Europe, as with no Metal Gear Solid on the menu we’re left with a MotorStorm Livery Pack. Yup. Livery. That’s the highlight! Because aside from that, there’s Rock Band & Guitar Hero DLC, some trailers, and an…
Dawn of War II just got a fairly sizeable multiplayer update. Know what that means? Means it’s time for an even bigger multiplayer update. Relic announced today the “There is Only War” update, which sometime “this summer” is going to introduce some new multiplayer features to the game, including eight new multiplayer maps, a spectator…
You’ve seen Logitech’s $200 guitar for the PS2 & PS3. It is not kidding around. Now see the 360 version, which courtesy of a hot orange paint scheme, is kidding around. It transforms the guitar from “menacing metal axe” to “hair metal plaything”, though really, the changes are only skin-deep. It’s the same professionally-built guitar…
Call of Duty 4 sold, well, millions. So its direct sequel – Modern Warfare 2 – shouldn’t be too hard of a sell. Or, it wouldn’t be if the game was published by anyone else. But since it’s published by Activision, well… …like the headline says, you’re going to get sick of the sound of…
Here’s the finished version of that ridiculously expensive Diablo III statue we showed you a little while ago. It’s now available for preorder, with an expected release date of Q4 2009. Just look at how angry he is! Angry that he costs $300. Angry that he, like everything else in the game, is now in…
Empire: Total War is, regardless of its inherent excellence, in serious need of regular updates. And on Monday, it’s getting one, which will bring both a range of fixes as well as some “new” units. As we’ve covered, the “new” units are really just one new unit (Russian grenadiers) along with a range of individualised…
Forza 3 will cost you $60. But the Forza 3 Limited Edition will cost you $80. What’s jacking the price up by $20 get you? It doesn’t look like it gets you much at all. Those parting with the extra cash will receive: – a 2GB USB drive and a keychain, both “specially branded” (ie…
As is often the case with the PAL market (see Ico & Resident Evil 4), European and Australian customers will be getting a cleaner, fresher rendition of Wii Sports Resort when it launches next month. While the US version looks…well, drab, the PAL art is literally a breathe of fresh air, doing a much better…
With E3’s hype train having come, paused then rattled off into the sunset, gamers are free to weigh up the holiday season’s (and beyond!) planned releases, and make plans themselves. Like which of the games they’re going to actually buy. Market research firm Nielsen ran a poll between June 7-14, and asked a bunch of…
Lemmy. Lemmy Kilmister. Lead singer, bass player and founder of Motörhead. The man is a living legend. But did you ever wonder, amongst the admiration for songs with names like “Killed By Death”, whether the man plays video games? Short answer is yes. Yes he does. Here’s Tim Schafer, telling GI.biz what it was like…
PC gamers may want to have some extra cash on-hand in a few month’s time, because both AMD and Nvidia are expected to release the “next generation” of graphics chips later this year. A report over on VentureBeat says that the debut of this “next gen” tech will be so important to both companies that…
When Vista was released, few developers really wanted to take advantage of it. Most customers preferred XP, so most developers did, too. But could Windows 7 be different? Stardock, the publishers behind Sins of a Solar Empire and Demigod, seem to think so. CEO Brad Wardell has told Gamasutra “it would be good if everybody…
Treasure’s Alien Soldier is an absolute classic. It was also, for some reason, never released in its original form (ie on the Genesis) in the US. Until now! Bratwurst, from the Sega-16 forums, has made his own copy. With a box, box art, a manual (in authentic, faded black & white) and, most amazing of…
In Japan, there’s already one Macross game for the PSP. And it’s pretty good! Soon, there will be two Macross games, with the announcement of Macross Ultimate Frontier. It’s much the same as Ace Frontier, only with a few new additions like a better warning system for incoming missiles, as well as a new wingman…
While we’d like to see more pop culture and less national icons in our Sackboys, we can make an exception when we’re greeted with a Druid. Yes, to help celebrate summer solstice, the time when the ancient ones felt the sun’s power was at its greatest, Media Molecule will be releasing this little guy, doing…
The Saboteur is set in France. During the Second World War. You’re fighting Nazis. During the Second World War. But developers Pandemic would like you to know, this isn’t a game about the Second World War! Pandemic’s Thomas French says “…we don’t even really think of our game as a WWII game, it’s the backdrop…
