Late last month we got our first look at the Halo: Reach Deliver Hope live action flick, packed with a minute or so of explosions and flying Spartans. Today we get a look at the extended mix. In this new cut of the Deliver Hope video we get two-and-a-half minutes of future warfare, but still…
To: Crecente From: Bashcraft RE: The Quiet Between the Storms I bought dental floss today. I love dental floss. Flossing isn’s so big in Japan. A dentist here once told me that the dental IQ of Japanese people is somewhat lower than Americans. I have noticed that it has gotten better over the years, however.…
What makes this promotional video isn’t the Sports Champions gameplay. Rather, it’s the sheer number of outfits worn in it. I lost count. No, really, I did. The manga freeze-frames are a nice touch, too. Sports Champion is an upcoming game PlayStation Move launch time. Check out our review
Japan’s Yamagata Prefecture is Japan’s biggest cherry producer. So naming a new learning institution “Sakuranbo Shougakkou” (“Cherry Elementary School”) after the area’s produce would make sense. That is, until you check the internet. There is a doujin adult game brand by the same name. Put the school’s name さくらんぼ小学校 in Google, and there are links…
It’s a shame Lee Camara isn’t making any more of these replica Team Fortress 2 weapons, because I would not just buy one, I would buy 18, and enough coloured jumpsuits to go around. As an artist, all were made on commission for various cosplayers and Team Fortress 2 fans. Such a tease, that we…

A man named Matt has built a coffee table. It is designed to look like the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is awesome. Here is how it compares size-wise to an actual NES. The coffee table is bigger! This is more than an enormous Nintendo Entertainment System. It is an enormous NES with a fully functionally,…
If you thought the recent Street Fighter movie was bad, spare a thought for the King of Fighters movie, which is even worse Not that this is a bad thing. It looks so bad that it’s worth a watch, if friends and booze were involved. Just…leave your feelings for King of Fighters – and Maggie…
These days, it’s standard for video games to get downloadable content after they are released. Final Fantasy XIII is not your standard game. Final Fantasy XIII has not gotten any downloadable content — to the chagrin of players. DLC gives a title a longer life and sometimes provides a more robust gaming experience. Downloadable content…
Classy coffee tables are classy, but also boring. What they need is exactly what this one has: a cleverly-disguised set of professional arcade cabinet components. The Arcane table, from Surface Tensions, looks at first glance to be a glass-topped coffee table. But there’s a slide-out drawer in the side, which houses a very fetching controller…
Final Fantasy XIII, which was previously an PS3 exclusive in Japan, is coming to the country’s Xbox 360 console. Square Enix boss Yoichi Wada has been catching all kinds of hell from Japanese gamers for the decision. Square Enix and the game’s staffers had been saying definitively for years that Final Fantasy XIII was only…
Some of those at PAX over the weekend got to see a new gameplay clip of Infamous 2. Since that likely wasn’t you, here it is! I’m not the biggest fan of Infamous – in particular the “rubbery” feel of Cole – but I do appreciate promotional clips in 2010 comprised entirely of gameplay footage.
In 2005, Nintendo published Nintendo DS game “Brain Age” in Japan, a title that claimed it could train players’ brains. In 2010, Microsoft’s Kinect is getting its own brain game. Called “New Brain Training: Answer With Your Body”, the game has players do things liks swat balloons in order and play Pac-Man with their hands.…
Microsoft has tonight officially revealed a new Xbox 360 hardware bundle, almost a month to the day it was inadvertently leaked via some packaging shots The bundle includes a 250GB Xbox 360 S console, the Kinect motion-control camera and a copy of Kinect Adventures. You get all that for $399 (or £300 if you’re in…
It seems that Keita Takahashi, the man known for Katamari Damacy, has left Namco Bandai. Takahashi’s departure was confirmed by website Play.tm. In recent years, Takahashi has seemed increasingly disinterested in gaming. In an August interview with the Official PlayStation Magazine, the game designer said, “At E3 I saw people putting on speeches but I…
There were some who scoffed at Dead Rising: Case Zero, amused at what they considered to be a paid demo. After hundreds of thousands of sales over the past week, though, who’s laughing now? Capcom’s Dead Rising 2 prequel, which in the US cost an approachable $5, was deemed by plenty to be worth the…
Hideo Kojima, creator of Metal Gear Solid, has a verified Twitter account. He uses it to post pictures of his lunch. Boring, dull stuff. But today, he spiced things up by posting a picture of a girl in her underwear. Kojima writes that it is raining, and he is having lunch in Tokyo Midtown. To…
The majority of this clip for The Old Republic shows everything that is wrong with both Star Wars’ expanded universe and the drudgery of MMOs. Until, that is, the last ten seconds. Then it reminds us of everything that was once good about Star Wars video games.
There’s been criticism that Microsoft’s Kinect suffers from lag. But what about Sony’s rival PlayStation Move? How laggy is it? In a FAQ section on the PlayStation Blog, Sony come close to actually putting a number on the thing, stating “The PlayStation Move has similar sensing latency as the DUALSHOCK 3 controller – for many…
Back in 2008, Japanese game company Square Enix revealed that role-playing game Final Fantasy XIII was coming to the Xbox 360 — everywhere except Japan. That has changed. The game was originally thought to be a PS3 exclusive. Last winter, it was released as a PlayStation 3 exclusive. In August 2008, Microsoft Taiwan’s Grace Chou…
