God Of War Figure Goes Tiny, Lets Itself Go
Toy company NECA have already released some God of War figures, yeah, but those are mean, and they’re pointy. We like this one better, because it’s cute, and cuddly. It’s a custom Mighty Muggs figure by Likhang Pinoy Customs, and goes well beyond what you’d expect from such an endeavour, with an assortment of hand-crafted…

This Guy Makes A Mean Kratos Statue
By day, Herbert Lowis works as an artist at Propaganda Games, the team currently working on the new Pirates of the Caribbean game. But by night? He’s capable of stuff like this. Seriously, this is a sculpture made by a single man. Not a $300, commissioned piece of adult collectible finery. It’s just…something some guy…

God Of War Novel Is 283 Pages Of “GGGGGRRRRR!!!!”
For all its violence and bombast, God of War is built around a mythology that’s thousands of years old. So the fact somebody is making a novel out of it may not be as ridiculous as you first thought. Then again, since it’s based entirely around the events of the first game in the series,…

The Clips of E3: Day Three & Four
Day three of E3’s clip round up has a lot more gameplay and a lot less hardware to drool over; but you can still get another look at the PSP Go in action. Day four, meanwhile, was slim pickings — although that Fat Princess trailer really had me laughing. The Super Mario Galaxy 2 trailer…
