I realise visiting Sydney Harbour may not be feasible for most of you, but on the off chance it is, you should swing by Cockatoo Island and check out the real, working Halo Warthog that’ll be sitting there this weekend. It’s the same Warthog that featured in Neil Blomkamp’s ill-fated Halo short film, and was…

How’s that coming along? “The thing with this is that they (Disney…

Ah, Huxley. You mythical beast of the orient. Long whispered of, rarely seen, never played. That is, until now! There’s been a closed beta for the Korean MMO/FPS hybrid running on Fileplanet for a little while now, but that’s not of interest to you. You probably weren’t part of it. You can, however, be a…
Won’t somebody think of the cosplayers?! This past weekend, lots of people did at the World Cosplay Championship in Nagoya.

Dubbed “Get It Together,” it’s a instrumental pop tune by British band The Go! Team, but it has become linked with the game, just as George…
Modern Warfare 2’s collector’s edition is ridiculous. It’s Activision testing how stupid you and your wallets are. But it’s not alone in the over-the-top military shooter collector’s edition stakes!
