Madden‘s Coveted “100” Rating Put Up to a Vote in Five Categories
The 100. A rarity that symbolizes perfection and nearly automatic success in sports video games, the difference between it and a 99 rating in a single attribute is in fact cosmetic. But the difference between a 100 and a 92—or an 88—is rather substantial. Fans of Madden NFL 12 have the chance to make a…

UncategorizedThere Are Two Hedgehogs and Four Tails in This Sonic Generations Trailer
There’s only two Tails, but each Tails has two tails, making it four tails. See, I used the capitalization of the headline as misdirection! Just watch the video. Old and new versions of Miles “Tails” Prowler (or M.P.H. to his friends) join Sonic and Sonic in the Gamescom trailer for Sega’s generation-hopping hedgehog adventure later…

Now Anonymous Has Hacked The Secret World — Nevermind, False Alarm
Sorry, I see a guy in a modern-day setting wearing a white face mask and jump to conclusions. Still, the conspiracy-laden Earth of The Secret World seems like a great place for Anonymous to hang out, doesn’t it?

I’m Falling in Love With WildStar, and I Don’t Care Who Knows It
It’s not the stunning CGI movie quality trailer for NCsoft and Carbine’s WildStar that has my heart beating so hard. Nor is it these forty-four screenshots, covering the races, combat, and environments of this gorgeous space born adventure. It’s not even the bunny girls (though they certainly help). So what is it? It’s the concept…

Modern Warfare 3 Gets Dedicated Servers on PC (That’s a Great Thing for Competitive Play)
You heard that right: Modern Warfare 3 will support dedicated servers on the PC, just like your daddy’s multiplayer shooters did.
