Or, he does in this new figure from Hong Kong artisans Hot Toys, the third in their Resident Evil 5 series that so far also features our heroes Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar. Where Chris and Sheva’s figures were typified by the attention to detail on their accessories and weapons, Wesker’s figure is more noticeable…

This isn’t some marketing survey or whatever. It’s an emotional investment in you. Yes, we’re interested in knowing you, Kotaku…
So iPhone games have, to date, been largely disappointing. Let’s forget iPhone games for a minute, then, at look at an iPhone synth that lets you create your own 8-bit soundtracks. This is 8bitone, by Japanese devs Yudo, and it lets you arrange your own chiptune soundtracks on the fly. It’s not a professional solution,…

Lev Chapelsky of the Hollywood firm Blindlight tried just that. “Celebrity acquisition applies not just to celebrity actors but to sports figures, politicians — we’ve made offers to Bill Clinton…
Designer Thomas “Akutou” Pereira likes him some video game ladies. And some vector art. Combine the two and, yes, you see where this is going. While there’s plenty of great stuff on Pereira’s website – we’re suckers for anything and everything Kurt Russell – it’s the Jill, Gum and Sheva pics that are easiest on…
Team Fortress 2 update time! The folks at Valve are clearing the air about any confusion about gaining items. That’s awfully nice of them. The Spy Vs. Sniper update brought randomization to item unlocks, dropping Achievement based milestones. This was supposed to address the spate of specific classes populating servers every time a new update…
This month, five years ago, the very first edition of SingStar was released upon an unsuspecting world. Now, after five years of (mainly European) success, Sony celebrates. I remember, in my previous life, working at EB Games the day the game first arrived in an unassuming crate from Sony. And thinking, “Man, this is stupid.…

So what is the most epic moment you ever had in your gaming history? For me it was with Shinobi(ps2)when i finish the game without dying once
To: Owen From: Crecente I’ve been having a lot of fun messing around with Personal Trainer: Walking for the DS this week. None of the playing has really involved gameplay, but that’s OK. The game lets you track your dog’s walking habits too, so today I tracked down Tristan’s puppy, LittleFoot, and slapped one of…
After a week’s worth of largely entertaining Team Fortress 2 “Spy Vs. Sniper” updates, Valve has officially released new content for two of the game’s classes. But things aren’t exactly going as planned. As with most TF2 class updates, general whining ensues about how everything is ruined, how the developers have phoned the update in,…

The Wii is getting its first “haunted house simulator” this Fall with the North American release of Ju-On: The Grudge, based upon the Japanese horror film Ju-On, XSEED Games announced today. The game was announced for release in Japan just a few weeks ago, but plans to localize it for a pre-Halloween release in the…
They’re not exactly squeezing Little Big Planet into DS game Scribblenauts, but the potential for some interesting building, creating and sharing is there. When I asked earlier this week about any multiplayer options in this fall’s will-render-whatever-you-write game Scribblenauts, I got a surprise response. The game won’t have any standard multiplayer, but it will allow…
The latest batch of nasty, devilish things to join the Diablo III bestiary are the “Fallen Ones,” a quintet of horned demons that feature some returning foes, with nary a hint of rainbow amongst them. Diablo II fans may recognize some of these terrors, including the rank and file Imp and Shaman, but the Hound,…
EA’s Boom Blox Bash Party is out and people are already making levels for download featuring famous stuff to wreck. Crystalline II – A level made by EA’s Boom Blox team. A gold medal if it can be toppled with three slingshot shots. World Domination – This is a competitive level also made by EA’s…
This week’s Japanese hardware contest wasn’t a proud one, with total hardware unit sales just barely cracking the 100,000 mark. Not good. But it was a winning week for the Nintendo DSi and Wii. Those two consoles won out against their PlayStation competition, holding on to first and third spots in the Media Create weekly…
To go along with the new trailer, EA and DICE also released this morning some new screens for the upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
My fellow Americans and I will be enjoying the pleasures of a three-day weekend, thanks to the arrival of Memorial Day. In shallow remembrance of our fallen servicemen, I’ll be playing Rock Band Unplugged. Probably not the most fitting tribute, I’ll concede, but I hope to make up for it by patriotically consuming large volumes…
