I knew there must have been a reason for the robot ice cream cones to glow. This is about 30 minutes of my son and I playing Gladiator Arena in Sports Champions with the Playstation Move in a very sped up video.
To: Crecente From: Bashcraft RE: Sweet Sleep I downloaded iTunes 10 today — Jason Chen passed it along! That was nice of him! I haven’t really used it that much yet, but it seems slick.

It’s a little late for Assassin’s Creed II, we know, but just in time for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood come these Ezio figures by NECA. There’ll be two variants available: your standard white Ezio, along with a black version, which I’d be tempted by since those were my in-game threads of choice. NECA have fast become…
Japanese erotic games tend to have, well, interesting promotional efforts. 18-years-old-and-up PC title Kud Wafter is no exception. Boob chocolate, anyone? Priced at ¥682 (US$8), the box comes with 8 (you do the math!) chocolates. This is slated to go on sale in October, but the chocolate is already currently sold out. Chocolate boobs and…
It’s a safe bet that Call of Duty: Black Ops will become the de facto multiplayer shooter of the fall, deservedly so for the intelligent, exciting online features that developer Treyarch is adding to the series—most notably, gambling.
