Wolfenstein Trailer: Short Attention Span Theater
Here’s your "Occult" trailer for the upcoming Wolfenstein next-gen re-do/sequel. Too bad it doesn’t linger on any shot for longer than 15 frames, I’d really like to process the visuals and maybe understand its gameplay. Anyway, the long-awaited sequel (since, like, 2004) is due for a July release on PC, 360 and PS3, adding mutant…

NCAA Football 10 Gets a Release Date — but Not for Wii
The latest edition of NCAA Football will release July 14 on four consoles, but none of them are named Wii. The “All-Play” version has been sacked as EA Sports focuses on improving the full-featured title. In comments to Gamespot, EA Sports confirmed the omission of the Wii from the launch announcement was not a mistake.…

Weekend Coupons: Slim Savings
We seem to have hit a lull this week. Gamestop has gone ga-ga with Pokémon shit because the DS platinum version is releasing March 22. Play-Asia is having a huge sale, though.

UncategorizedVin Diesel Salutes British Host’s Level 80 Wife
Vin Diesel’s been on a full-court publicity press of late, but say this about the man – he’s not a phony when it comes to games. Diesel appeared on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, an entertainment/interview program (fine, programme, happy?) on BBC One. The tables get turned rather quickly when Ross asks Diesel about his…

EA’s Still a Little Pissy that “Guided Experience” Hasn’t Caught On
Eurogamer asks a lot of impertinent questions of Dead Space: Extraction’s executive producer. Like “Is this still gonna be cool for a rail shooter?” And “are you gonna babyfy anything because it’s on the Wii?” That’s not directly what was said to EA’s Steve Papoutsis, but he seems to take its meaning as such.

Wait a Minute, What the Hell Happens April 9?
Is it the Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack release date? Bungie’s latest update ends with “PS: 04/09/09.” Last week, notes sharp-eyed reader Crono51, the studio hinted the release date was coming “Soon™. Maybe next week.” When people throw cryptic crap at me and gratuitously trademark adverbs, I just start taking it all at face value…

Kotaku Originals: Midas Touch
Give yourselves a big hand and take a victory lap. Our determined grassroots campaign – that, or Paramount seeing some no-brainer DLC to hype Transformers 2 – succeeded in getting “The Touch” on Guitar Hero. Never mind this dickclown who had the regions of his brain responsible for smiling and irony lobotomized. The point is…

Fake Seven of Nine Interview Teases Borg In Star Trek Online
In an attempt at realism (or as a way to bring up skintight-bodysuit-wearing Jeri Ryan) Star Trek Online has posted an “interview” with Seven of Nine that hints at a Borg threat in the game. The fictitious encounter between the interviewer and Seven of Nine covers plot points about the ex-Borgette leaving Starfleet to work…
