This is all a bit silly, going around in circles over something as simple as a subtitle, but there’s a record that’s got to be set straight: Bioshock 2 is still “Sea of Dreams”. You can forget those reports from last week that explicitly stated “You won’t be seeing ‘Sea of Dreams’ moving forward, just…
Details on BioWare’s Mass Effect 2 are scarce. We know there will be blood, robots wearing people clothes and…that’s it. Lucky we’ve got Amazon’s preorder page for the game to add a little colour. The site contains a brief plot description, which reads: The second chapter in the Mass Effect trilogy takes you to the…
Zombie Studios, the development team behind the newly-announced Blacklight, have lifted the lid on the game, revealing the first screenshot for the futuristic shooter. And here it is. It’s dark, there’s a man with a gun in it, and from the looks of that streetscape, it’s a real screenshot, not some fanciful “target render”. Your…
Note: this isn’t a retail product. There’s no Nintendo seal on the box. So no running off and telling Fox News, OK! Instead, this handy guide to all things carnal comes via the homebrew community. SutraDS, as it’s called, was whipped up by Cid2Mizard and submitted as part of a DS flash cart’s annual coding…
You’ve devoured, then processed the lists detailing the top-selling games and consoles for February. But do you want to know the best-selling games by platform? Or the games that didn’t quite make the top 10? Wired have published a series of charts provided by the NPD Group, which show the games that finished 11-20 on…
After a run of over five years, Battlestar Galactica finished over the weekend, and there’s a hole in my heart. Probably one in yours, too. One that needs filling. I mean, you’ve got to fill it with something. It’s not like the show will magically continue next week. It’s over. Well, aside from an epilogue…
Yeah. More custom sneakers. Don’t like ’em? Then you’re not looking at the damn picture, because these are Monkey Island Chuck Taylors. On one side, the blind lookout. On the other? One of the game’s classic swordfights. And this? A handy reference chart containing all the game’s swordfighting quips, just in case you catch somebody…
That Silent Hill classification the other day wasn’t for a Wii-make. It was for a PS1-make! Konami’s classic was re-released on the PAL PlayStation Store yesterday, so this week, PAL users, no complaining. Particularly since you’ll also find the much-delayed SOCOM Confrontation on there as well, along with a ton of PSP games ready for…
As Sony no doubt intended, my PS3 is the heart of my living room. I watch DVDs on it, Blu-Rays on it, stream movies from my PC on it. But I do so under duress. Why? Not because of the machine itself. It’s a magnificent media player. But because, thanks to the machines exclusive use…
We’ve picked up on the fact many of you aren’t feelin’ the DSi. But you know what? Lots of other people are, because according to GameStop, pre-orders for the handheld are off the charts. According to GameStop senior vice president Bob McKenzie, DSi pre-orders are double the size of the original DS: We’ve seen some…
Pardon the French, but there’s no other way to describe the PC launch of Square Enix’s The Last Remnant. It’s a mess. The game was released in Europe yesterday. So thousands of Europeans bought it, took it home, went to play it and…could not. See, the game is authenticated and activated via Valve’s Steam service.…
To: Crecente From: Luke Re: Scheduling for GDC… Still Yes. Amazing, isn’t it? : I turned 29 yesterday. No cake, no action figures, no booze. Slightly worrying, that. Anyway, while I contemplate a year spent staring 30 in the face, here’s what you missed: Get Godlike Control Of Super Mario Bros. With Your Mouse BioShock…
Been a while since we posted Starcraft II screens. And frankly, it’s been a while because they were all starting to look the same. The break has, however, done wonders for our attention span. With our vigour for all things Starcraft II restored by today’s Battle.net announcement, let’s take a look at these three screens,…
Not sure why you’d really need this, what with the game’s title doing most of the selling (or turning away) on its own, but whatever. There’s a demo for Guitar Hero: Metallica on Xbox Live. It clocks in at around 1GB and, sadly, is (at this stage, at least) for Gold subscribers only.
If you’ve never been, you can probably still imagine: Japan is one polite country. A level of politeness like that isn’t just “there”, it’s earned, and it’s earned through hard work and diligent instruction. This is Kuukiyomi. It’s a DSiWare game (so you download it to your DSi), and will be out this Spring in…
And here we were thinking for a game series to get some action figures it had to be about men, blood and bloody men. No! Because DC Direct are bringing us Ratchet & Clank figures. At the moment, we’ve got a single picture to go off, which reveals that there’ll be at least three figures…
This console generation, the PlayStation 3 is in dead last place. The Xbox 360 has sold more, the Nintendo Wii has sold a lot more. Does this worry Sony? Surprisingly, no, it does not. See, according to Sony Computer Entertainment America’s Senior VP of Marketing, Peter Dille, Sony aren’t focusing on market share. They’re focusing…
We’re fairly sure that Lost Planet 2, despite its press release’s decidedly pro-360 slant, will not be exclusive to the Xbox 360. Capcom’s Jun Takeuchi today only further reinforces that belief. When asked by GameDaily whether the game would be exclusive to the 360, Takeuchi’s response was simply “We are currently investigating other platforms.” Not…
Blizzard have today unveiled the all-new, all-singing, all-dancing upgrade of their online gaming service Battle.net, with improvements that promise to make your life as a Blizzard junkie that much easier. The single biggest change is that anything and everything to do with Blizzard can now be linked via a single username and password. Online gaming,…
For all their promise, the 360’s avatars look a little…drab. This isn’t 1998, Microsoft, nor the set of Frasier. Thankfully, Capcom are on the case, and with Crecente in mind will be releasing pirate costumes. Sure, there’s a marketing tie-in to wade through first. After all, Capcom have copies of Age of Booty to promote…
