Sony’s latest PS Vita commercial is set in a junior high classroom and features “an exchange student with a mysterious name”. The exchange student’s name is Permetalpower Velersmiku (ペルメタルパワ ベラーミク).

This is Hotline Miami. It looks like the most gruesome 1980s action movies come to life, only instead of coming to life wearing bandanas and grenade belts, it’s wearing hot pink and a pulsing soundtrack. It’s also sporting one hell of a logo. Hotline Miami is the work of indie dev Jonatan Söderström, aka Cactus,…

Have I gushed about ArmA III lately? OK, fine, have I done it today? No? Then let’s continue. Here’s another of the super-realistic military sim’s E3 videos, which are new for most of us since practically none of us saw the game at E3. Remember, this is a sandbox game. Those hills in the distance…

They’ve never really stopped trickinling out since the genre’s heyday in the 1990s, but it’s been a while since people could get truly excited about a space-based “4X” (explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate) strategy game on the PC. So it’s cool seeing people get excited about Endless Space. The game, out now on Steam, promises…
Last we heard, Devil’s Third – the latest game from Ninja Gaiden mastermind and badass Tomonobu Itagaki – was on hold as publishers THQ looked to offload it. Well, now they’ve offloaded it, giving all rights back to the developers, Itagaki’s Valhalla Studios. “THQ confirms that the company will not be publishing Devil’s Third,” a…
A few days after the emails first went out, Ubisoft has responded to its accidental leak of around 500 fans’ email addresses with…another email. While a “sorry” might have been appreciated, all users received was a short message that read: Dear User, Ubisoft takes privacy matters seriously. Recently we discovered some users’ email addresses were…
That’s not to degrade the rest of the game, which is due out this fall. It looks just fine. It’s just a testament to how glorious Metroplex is. I mean, transforming into a fighter jet or a truck is cool, I guess, but transforming into a city? That’s how you get stuff done. This isn’t…
The best thing about zombie mod DayZ is that, because there’s not much to do in the thing aside from kill/avoid zombies, people are left to their own devices. Some like to roam solo. Some like to team up and stay alive. Others like to gang up and kidnap other players. Aussie writer Adam Ruch…
It’s not only that Pro Controller that reminds Microsoft of its Xbox 360. The graphics do, too. “I think their Pro Controller makes a lot of sense with the platform they’ve built,” Microsoft’s Phil Spencer told website Games Industry. “They are building a platform that is effectively a 360 when you think of graphical capability.”…
Long live the Nintendo DS! One of the, let’s be honest, best gaming platforms ever is getting a new game: a Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters for the DS. Since Nintendo DS games can run on the 3DS and since most little Japanese kids have a DS, it’s pretty smart of Namco Bandai to put this out…
Another day of Nintendo honcho blowing the gasket off of things. This time, it’s Nintendo’s online service, the Nintendo Network. It’s supposed to be free, but that doesn’t mean it will be free forever. Forever is a long time. At a recent investors meeting, Iwata said, “We cannot promise that Nintendo will always provide you…
I know this dance. I’ve been here before, I’ve seen this play out. I know how it’s all going to end, and for that, I hate this game a little. See, I’ve read The Walking Dead—I know what this world is like. I know that you can’t win, that safety is an illusion, that nothing…
Sure, Stephen has shown us reasons to be thankful today for fireworks, but thankful is boring. I’d prefer to just spend the holiday putting the games down and watching dudes hurt themselves by doing stupid things with them. And it’s not even a holiday in Australia. That’s how much I prefer it. Enjoy your day…
