  • Fable 2 – Co-op

    Peter Molyneux announced two new features for Fable 2 this week at the GDC. This first and most radical is co-op play. At any time you can jump into a friends single player game, play for awhile, and leave, keeping all the items and experience you get. I love co-op play and games, and that…

  • Ninja Gaiden II – Recording Feature

    Tomonobu Itagaki announced at Microsoft’s GDC keynote that Ninja Gaiden II has a confirmed North American release date of June 3. Also announced was a cool new feature. You can record all your radical ninja moves and upload them on Xbox Live for others to view, sort of like watching Halo 3 replays. But with…

  • Gears of War 2 Announced

    You knew it was coming sooner or later, Gears of War was just too radical. The trailer really doesn’t show that much game play, but what are you going to do? There is already some box art for the game, one for the limited edition and one for the regular edition. No details about what…

  • Microsoft Responds to 16% Failure Rate

    This week SquareTrade, a warranty firm, released a report indicating that the Xbox 360 has a 16.4 percent failure rate. This number was based on a sample group of 1,000 warranties. Microsoft has responded to IGN about they report and says they are unfamiliar with this “SquareTrade” company and have not seen the report… “Microsoft…

  • Grand Theft Auto IV Wanted Posters In Brooklyn?

    I feel like I know where this is…but I guess that could be anywhere in Brooklyn, really. I haven’t seen any yet, but when I do I’m taking it for myself. I wonder if anyone who doesn’t know about Grand Theft Auto IV will really get these ads, and if they wouldn’t, what’s the point…

  • Grand Theft Auto IV Release Date Announced

    Press releases are funny things. Like, I’m sitting here trying to think what I should add to this post to make it the least bit interesting…and I can’t think of anything. What more can I say? Rockstar Games announced that the release date is April 29, 2008 (PS3 and Xbox 360). That’s it, that’s the…

  • I Can’t Get Into Mass Effect

    Right before Mass Effect came out I started getting really excited about the game. I had watched all the trailers I could find, read everything that was out there, and it seemed like this was going to be a great game play experience. The Tuesday it came out I picked up the game and couldn’t…

  • New Halo 3 Maps Available Today

    Three new maps are available for purchase today (the map Standoff is shown in the video above). The pack costs 800 points…I’m not really sure if I’m ready to drop money on three maps…I’ll have to speak to Gmoney, I’m sure he has them already some how. Anyway, here’s the details: Standoff’s symmetrical valley, with…

  • Devil May Cry 4 Demo Early 2008

    Capcom has official announced a playable demo for the upcoming Devil May Cry 4. The demo is set to be released early 2008 through both the Playstation Store and Xbox Live. Instead of just one single level, the demo will feature a number of different environments that will highlight many of the games play mechanics.…

  • Warhammer: Battle March Cinematic Trailer

    I’ve been interested in Warhammer 40K for awhile now, but never really got into plain old Warhammer. I don’t know why, it just hadn’t done it for me…until now. This trailer really looks nice, I wonder what the actually game play graphics will be like. I honestly knew nothing about the game, so I did…

  • New Lost Odyssey Trailer

    Lost Odyssey looks really good, I’m excited to see how it turns out…February 2008 can’t come soon enough. I don’t know what’s being said in the trailer, but from the sound I can only assume something touching is happening.

  • Microsoft Updates Xbox 360 Backwards Compatibility

    Today Microsoft updated the Xbox 360, adding…83 new Xbox games to it’s backwards compatibility list. I hope I counted that right. They still didn’t add Beyond Good and Evil, so I guess I’m never going to be able to play that game. Hey, at least we got NHL 2005, I’m sure tons of people have…
