Too. Much. Crap. Probably should bin these toys, but won’t. I kinda like Happy Meal toys! They’re so…happy. Our First Look At Batman: Arkham City In Motion Is A Stunner 2009’s Batman: Arkham Asylum set a new bar for super hero video games, a game unexpectedly great. Based on what we’ve seen of the sequel…

You might have boobs. You might have moobs. And if you do, you probably have bras. So why not cover them in Pokéballs from Pokémon? For those brassiere-wearing folks who love Pocket Monsters, here is a quick tutorial from Selina, the maker of the original Pokébra. We’ve seen the Pokébra before, but we just didn’t…
Let’s be honest. There are two types of fan films: crappy looking ones and great looking ones. Freeman’s Days? It looks great Based on Valve’s Half-Life games and from a host of Russian Half-Life players, Freeman’s Days follows the games’ silent physicist in his adventures in Half-Life 2. Unlike most Half-Life fan creations, the question…
We’re still a few hours away from the official launch of the Nintendo 3DS in Japan, but as is the way of the world, the handheld has already been unofficially launched in Hong Kong. An example: CNN tech writer Ravi Hiranand picked one up yesterday in a store in Hong Kong, and has been enjoying…
MotorStorm: Apocalypse is an upcoming racing game that features buildings falling down all around you. In the wake of a devastating earthquake in the city of Christchurch, that’s apparently resulted in the game no longer being released in New Zealand.

Last year, an antagonistic man learned a very valuable lesson: don’t talk shit to girls on Xbox Live. Today, he’s learning…nothing. They’re just trolling him now. Warning: this is totally not suitable for work Click to view
Remember when game machines used to have street dates? China doesn’t. Hong Kong-based game publication GameWave snagged a Nintendo 3DS a day before it will go on sale in Japan. No word whether the portable was given to GameWave by Nintendo or not. Reports indicate that the portable, which was apparently skimmed from shipments from…
Treehouse Brand Stores make official clothing for many of Electronic Arts’ biggest franchises. Like Mass Effect, for which it will soon be releasing this It’s a hoodie that does as good a job a hoodie can do of looking like Mass Effect’s trademark N7 armour, complete with shiny bits and, best of all, a hood…

Tomorrow morning Japan time, Nintendo is launching the successor to the Nintendo DS, the Nintendo 3DS. Getting a Nintendo DS on launch day back in 2004 was not a problem. The 3DS could prove more difficult. Crud. Back in 2004, Nintendo was coming off the disastrous GameCube. Rumors swirled that the company was going to…
It’s a shame this isn’t an official trailer for fighting game Marvel vs Capcom 3. It certainly does a great job of selling the thing. This animated spectacular was put together by Newgrounds user JohnnyUtah, and cuts out matters of canon and characters and gets right to the heart of the game: the number of…
The “demoscene” is a place where video games and music videos meet. It exists on the periphery of both mediums, but that doesn’t make it any less pretty to look at (and listen to). Unlike the “demos” you’re generally used to — samples of commercial video games — the demoscene is a place where videos…
Project Gotham developers Bizarre Creations may be no more, but several key employees of the studio have formed a new company: Lucid Games

Nintendo is recommending players take breaks every fifteen minutes while playing the 3DS in 3D. Who plays video games for fifteen minutes? Nintendo is not alone. The fifteen minute break interval is also what the Korean government is recommending while viewing 3D. Capcom realizes that most players don’t play in chunks of 15 minutes. At…
Real hair or fake hair, it doesn’t matter. Akihabara salon Fuwat will totally cut them both. Located five minutes from Akihabara Station and opening last fall, the salon has a sandwich board out front, like many salons. But the game-inspired drawings, like the cat from Monster Hunter, provide a hint at the otaku-friendly service offered…
Ubisoft is shooting for “sexy” with its upcoming Wii party (?) game We Dare. But this fan-made trailer isn’t sexy at all It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you take the footage from a trailer featuring women in slinky business outfits and dudes with their shorts off and lay over the audio from…a zombie…
