Today in Tokyo, Square Enix showed off a craftsman-made Final Fantasy XIV outfit that was used in a new ad for the game. As seen on Game Watch Impress
Japan’s (literally) biggest girl group, AKB48, is getting its own PlayStation Portable bundle that comes with a whole bunch of sticker kisses for PSP smoochy smoochy. Love like this isn’t cheap. Priced at ¥36,729 (US$441), the bundle includes a special PSP (the PSP-3000AKB), 48 “kiss mark” PSP battery covers, a copy of the PSP title…
The next time someone says the Modern Warfare or Halo series have sold a ton, point them towards a fat little plumber with a red hat. Having made his first appearance as Jumpman (in Donkey Kong) nearly thirty years ago, Mario has since appeared in over 200 games. When you’re in 200 games – and…
Tellart have built a version of Frogger that you don’t play with a controller in front of a TV. You play with your feet, on the street, as it should be played. Of course, for safety reasons it should probably be played on the footpath, not somewhere with cars, but hey, this is still awesome.…
Liked CG-animated flick Resident Evil: Degeneration? You’re in luck. Capcom and Sony are joining forces once again to make Capcom and Sony are making a sequel to Degeneration called “Resident Evil: Damnation”. Resident Evil character Leon S. Kennedy, who appeared in the prequel, will once again return in Damnation. After a limited Japanese theatrical release,…
Sure, two Boba Fett tattoos on one arm may be “a bit much”. But when one is a 16-bit rendition of New Zealand’s finest bounty hunter, that’s OK in our books. This gentleman was spotted at last month’s Star Wars Celebration in Orlando, and while the inspiration is surely Lucasart’s excellent “Super” series of games…
Yours for approximately US$4.50. As seen on Technabob
There are large action figures from Final Fantasy XIII, now see those of a smaller, cheaper and less posable variety. In December Square Enix will be releasing a series of small PVC figures based on the latest role-playing game in the Final Fantasy series. They’re small, and you can’t move them (well, you might be…

With the game out soon (November!), it’s nice to finally see a proper trailer devoted to its singleplayer campaign. This collection of in-engine footage not only shows you the real game, it also shows you Ezio’s extended suite of moves for the singleplayer component of the title, something that’s been largely (though not entirely) overlooked…
Resident Evil: Afterlife has had the biggest opening of any of the RE films. Know what that means? They’re going to do another one. Oh, yes. They are. Milla Jovovich, star of Resident Evil: Afterlife, told New York Magazine, “This new Resident Evil is the first one to ever open at No. 1 worldwide. It’s…
That’s not meant as a slight against the game’s playerbase. You shouldn’t trust anyone involved with the handling of large amounts of cash, whether they play massively-multiplayer online games or not. A player by the name of “Bad Bobby” has shafted the space combat and trading game out of credits worth around USD$45,000 after pulling…
Battle damage in PSP game The 3rd Birthday is fan service jeans damage. But the game doesn’t just turn the denim threads of protagonist Aya ragged. It obliterates them. To get Aya’s outfit next to nothing, players can, for example, detonate five grenades on themselves. You’d think that detonating five explosions on oneself would do…
Gore Verbinski, director of Pirates of the Caribbean, was signed up to do a BioShock movie. It turned out to be too expensive, and now there’s a new director. Shame. The expensive one sounded awesome. Quint from AICN took a tour of Verbinski’s GORE studios last week, and asked around about the fate of the…

Ah, this might be what Apple was talking about when it claimed it was the “number one portable game player”. While the comment made recently by Steve Jobs raised eyebrows – mostly because he never backed it up with figures – research from NewZoo shows that while Apple’s iDevices (iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad) are the…
Acquire’s Gladiator Begins for the PSP is perhaps best known for its underboob-heavy, gladiator cosplaying mascot girl, one who engages in Japanese office publicity stunts hijinks that violate most corporate dress codes. America, how do you respond? Stateside publisher Aksys Games offers tit for tat to drum up interest in the North American release of…
Valve’s Steam service quietly added a novel new feature over the weekend; the ability to add funds to a “Steam Wallet“, giving you an online account balance just like you get with Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network. The minimum amount you can add is $5, with further increments available at $10, $25, $50 and…
The fighting game nuts at Eventhubs had men on the ground during a recent location test for the Japanese arcade release of Super Street Fighter IV, where attendees say that, yes, Yang and Yun have been added to the roster.
