For those who haven’t seen the latest issue of Game Informer, in which the DJ Hero controller was finally revealed in all its glory, here’s a shot of Morgan Webb Amanda McKay cradling one. Uncomfortably. Because we’d already seen half the thing previously – and because, based on the latest issue of GI, we described…
NKOK will be releasing later in the year a series of three remote-controlled vehicles based on those found in Bungie’s Halo 3. One is a Mongoose, one is a Warthog, and the last…a Hornet. Yes, the nimble little UNSC flier is the most expensive of the three (at $39), and also seemingly the most popular,…
Purple sneakers? Hah. Nothankyou. Oh! Unless they’re custom purple Cons covered in Grim Fandango artwork. Now that, that we can consider. Reader Tonks – who also made those Noby Noby and Phoenix Wright kicks – sends us his latest work, showing that his love, like ours, is as strong as ever for Tim Schafer’s wonderful…
Xbox Australia have just revealed this new Xbox 360 hardware bundle, which will include an Xbox 360 Pro along with a copy of both Gears of War and Gears of War 2. It’ll go on sale down under on June 4, and will retail for AUD$449 (USD$350). There’s no word on whether this will be…
Speaking at the Reuters Global Technology Summit in Tokyo last week, Capcom CFO Kazuhiko Abe has revealed that Resident Evil 5 has sold just shy of 5 million copies worldwide since launch. Abe says that 4.4 million copies were sold worldwide in March, the month of the game’s release, while a further 500,000+ (Abe says…
The nay-sayers were wrong. Noby Noby Boy‘s Noby Noby GIRL has over the weekend defied all the odds and, stretching her supple frame across the cosmos, touched down on Mars. With player numbers dropping only a month ago, it seemed as though this feat would never be accomplished. And really, it shouldn’t have been. Not…
The first of Capcom’s motherload of PS1 re-releases for the PlayStation Network arrives later this week, with the debut of Resident Evil: Director’s Cut. It’ll be part of the PlayStation Store‘s regular weekly update on Thursday, May 28, and will cost $10. Resident Evil: Director’s Cut, an extended version of the original, was first released…
Along with that snazzy new trailer, Infinity Ward also released some new screenshots for Modern Warfare 2. Sadly, only one of them features a skidoo.
Or, he does in this new figure from Hong Kong artisans Hot Toys, the third in their Resident Evil 5 series that so far also features our heroes Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar. Where Chris and Sheva’s figures were typified by the attention to detail on their accessories and weapons, Wesker’s figure is more noticeable…
So iPhone games have, to date, been largely disappointing. Let’s forget iPhone games for a minute, then, at look at an iPhone synth that lets you create your own 8-bit soundtracks. This is 8bitone, by Japanese devs Yudo, and it lets you arrange your own chiptune soundtracks on the fly. It’s not a professional solution,…
Designer Thomas “Akutou” Pereira likes him some video game ladies. And some vector art. Combine the two and, yes, you see where this is going. While there’s plenty of great stuff on Pereira’s website – we’re suckers for anything and everything Kurt Russell – it’s the Jill, Gum and Sheva pics that are easiest on…
This month, five years ago, the very first edition of SingStar was released upon an unsuspecting world. Now, after five years of (mainly European) success, Sony celebrates. I remember, in my previous life, working at EB Games the day the game first arrived in an unassuming crate from Sony. And thinking, “Man, this is stupid.…
To go along with the new trailer, EA and DICE also released this morning some new screens for the upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
While it would take a magician to repair the game’s myriad AI glitches, STALKER’s graphics are more easily improved. And boy, can they be improved. This is the “STALKER Complete 2009” mod (released last month), which does an admirable job of making the game look like it was, well, made in 2009. New textures, new…
Well, according to Dylan Hayes, it would probably look a lot like this. Can’t help but think of those Degenatron commercials from Vice City…
You’ve seen the gameplay footage, now see the screenshots of the gameplay footage. And they’re worth a look, giving you a better idea of the “They Live” interface than a grainy web video can manage.
It’s been a bad week for PR stunts, yes. So it’s heartening to see that when Heavy Rain comes out with gameplay footage, it actually comes out with a decent amount of gameplay footage. What you make of it all is another matter. It…looks a lot like Indigo Prophecy to me. Indigo Prophecy meets They…
At the Reuters Global Technology Summit in Tokyo, Capcom’s Chief Financial Officer Kazuhiko Abe has revealed that the company will, in 2009, be getting into iPhone games in a big way. He says there are plans to release “more than 10 titles” for the device over the remainder of this fiscal year (March 31, 2010).…
Yup. It’s another drip-fed PR stunt, but hey, it’s a few brief seconds of Modern Warfare 2 footage we’re talking about here. Some people are cool with that. Even if it is cynically bolted onto the existing trailer. NOTE: Embed code doesn’t seem to be working, so in the meantime, you can watch the trailer…
For a long time, Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata has maintained a stance that the Nintendo DS and Apple’s iPhone aren’t competing. A stance he seems to have let slide for a day. Speaking after Nintendo’s recent fiscal year report briefing, Iwata sounds like the constant comparisons between the two devices have got to him, as…
