When Splinter Cell: Conviction was first announced a few years back, Sam Fisher was different. He had a moppish haircut. People made fun of it. Now? Now the long locks are gone. The snippet of footage leaked from Ubisoft’s press site over the weekend shows Sam with a haircut that’s a little more…age-appropriate. I liked…

E3 is back. Back as a big show. And nothing says big like this Assassin’s Creed 2 poster, which is by far the “biggest in show”.
Can you feel it? E3 is almost upon us. I can certainly feel it, as I just touched down in LA after a surprisingly brisk trip across the Pacific. Just in time for free booze.
To whet your appetite for all things Ratchet & Clank ahead of E3 next week, Sony released this trailer for R&C Future that shows nothing but gameplay. Just our kind of trailer!
This is Alienware’s new m17x gaming laptop. To give you an idea of what’s going to be inside it, you should know that it weighs 12 pounds, and costs an absolute minimum $1800. We say “absolute minimum” because there are hardware options for the thing that may prove too tempting to pass up on. Like,…
Mass Effect is coming to the iPhone, in the form of an “animated 2D graphic novel-style” app. The story will bridge the events between Mass Effect 1 & 2. Here’s some screenshots.
What do you do when you’re Hideki Kamiya, you helped invent Devil May Cry, and now can’t make Devil May Cry games anymore? You make something that looks, well, better.
With E3 almost upon us, EA have reminded us of what I like to think is the spiritual successor to the Project Gotham series, Need for Speed: Shift. Still freaks me out that I’m interested in a Need for Speed game. Then again, it freaks me out even more that EA had the good sense…
Japanese 2D fighter BlazBlue – the spiritual successor to Guilty Gear – isn’t the most likely subject for an American fashion brand collabo, sure, but a fashion brand collabo is what the game is getting. These shirts are by Triumvir, who are continuing their run of game-related lines following last year’s Street Fighter II run.…
Not a lot of great stuff on offer this week on the PAL PlayStation Store, though the addition of those 2000AD LittleBigPlanet characters should bring some smiles over the weekend. Aside from those, though, it’s slim pickings. There’s a couple of new games (Cellfactor: Psychokinetic Wars & Inferno Pool), the new Saints Row 2 DLC…
Universal have put the planned BioShock movie on hold, citing difficulties with the film’s ever-expanding budget. But don’t you dare tell dreamboat actor Wentworth Miller that! He seems to think the movie is still all stations go, posting on his Twitter account “Prison Break may be ending, but I’ve got things in the works. Hint…one…
You now know that, in the right hands, the DS can draw some amazing pictures of fast cars. But did you also know that, in the right hands, it can do naked ladies as well? This clip highlights the other half of February’s Kiwi exhibition 99DS (which featured the fast cars), with this component, done…
When City of Heroes developers Cryptic were bought by Atari last year, it was said they’d be working on a single, secret game due in 2011. Now it turns out they’re working on several games. Atari’s yearly fiscal report has revealed that Cryptic “is working on the development of a series of new games based…
Last year, in a major coup for the fledgling company, Atari managed to hire former Sony Worldwide Studios boss Phil Harrison to serve as President. Now? Now he’s no longer President. According to a statement made by Atari as part of the company’s fiscal year report: Because of a shift of business operations to the…
Having first teased the game a few months ago, id’s John Carmack has provided a slew of details on the company’s upcoming iPhone port of their classic PC shooter Doom. Carmack goes into exhaustive detaill on how the game has been nipped and tucked to both work and look good on the handheld, but the…
Here’s the first trailer for DJ Hero. Until now, I’ve tried to keep an open mind about the whole thing. But after seeing this? Hrm.
Need pictures to go with the words explaining how DJ Hero will actually work? These screenshots should do, showing it works…well, a lot like Guitar Hero, really. Which is what you’d expect. As for DJ Shadow, who features in all these screens…well, I’ve seen Shadow live a few times over the past decade, and never,…
4mm Games – the new studio formed by the two of the guys who founded Rockstar – have announced their debut game. And it’s called Def Jam Rapstar, a hip-hop karaoke game. As is par for the course with these stupid pre-E3 announcements, there’s not much else being announced aside from the game itself. No…
Wait, isn’t E3 next week? And isn’t this game kind of a big deal for Sony? Ah, whatever. It’s not the first game to blow cover this week, and it probably won’t be the last.
