News Sony Start To Market Killzone 2 But Get It All Horribly Wrong
It's well documented that we don't think Sony can market anymore
In the early days of Playstation you couldn't move without seeing the brand everywhere. Snowboarding events, skateboarding events, football matches. These days you rarely see a Sony game advertised anywhere. Imagine our delight when we heard that Killzone 2 was getting to get a little...
News Assassin's Creed To Be Clutched Within Your Bloody Palms By March 2010
Remember Assassin's Creed?
The massively hyped kill-em-up fronted by marketing tool producer Jade Raymond -- yeah we do too. It was an amazing technical achievement but kinda dull in gameplay. Well, according to Ubisoft we'll see the latest iteration by March 2010. Which is awesome or "blah" depending on your stance. According to Ubisoft we'll...

A patch for LittleBigPlanet today made the game infinitely better
It improves the search options of the user created levels which previously weren't up to much. In the past you would login to LittleBigPlanet only to see the same levels over and over. Not anymore. Now you can search by "Busiest", "Most Hearted" and "Highest...
Rumour God Of War 3 Online Co-Op? 1080p, 60fps? "Eclipses Uncharted and Gears Of War 2"?
Anonymous blogger VGTilt thinks he knows a lot about God Of War 3
In fact he thinks he knows a lot more than "a lot" for he appears to know everything. Fullstop. Of course this might just be a 14-year old blogger's wet dream. He's certainly getting some hits regardless. He (hey it might be a She) writes: I was recently sent a pretty...

November2008
I've been sceptical about the new Prince Of Persia game because the original aside I've never touched the series
I've never even played Ubisoft's sister title Assassin's Creed which was meant to be all awesome because Jade Raymond worked on it or something. Anyway, apparently the new Prince Of Persia game is meant to be really good or...

Gears Of War 2 IGN - 9
5</a> Giant Bomb - 5/5 Eurogamer - 9/10 GameTrailers - 9.5/10 Gamespot - 9.0/10</ul>What these reviews taught me: Gears Of War 2 is basically the perfect sequel - improving on every aspect that already made the original game so good. Resistance 2
October2008
There's no denying the comparisons between Mirror's Edge and 1984
It's just a futuristic version. Let's face it - Orwell's vision didn't quite come true but if we look further into the future we can see the same ideals just in a different world. Orwell's vision is carried forward in Mirror's Edge where the government confines and censors information...
Today Capgod announced that they are aiming for a February release of Street Fighter IV in the US (and probably Europe)
This means a number of amazing things: We will be playing Street Fighter IV on our PC, XBOX 360 or PS3 around this time in 4 months. Capgod (ok I'm going to stop with that now) will be releasing one awesome game for each of the...
Resistance 2's USP is that there are gigantic enemies
Do you think this advertisement currently residing in Los Angeles gets that point across? It's like Cloverfield all over again!
News LittleBigPlanet "No Later Than Week Of November 3rd"?
Why are Sony being so piggishly vague with the European re-thought launch of LittleBigPlanet? Following the breaking news of a delay Sony pretty much confirmed North America would get the game a week later than planned
"That's not too bad," we all decided, "No doubt it will hit European territories a week later too?"...
Apparently: We Muslims consider the mixing of music and words from our Holy Quran deeply offending
We hope you would remove that track from the game immediately via an online update, and make sure that all future shipments of the game disk do not contain it.</blockquote> So Sony have pulled the game (which has already shipped to most US...
News Bioshock 2: Sea Of Dreams First Ever Teaser Trailer Revealed When You Complete Bioshock On PS3
Bioshock PS3 is actually not out until tomorrow (scoring an impressive 10/10 on Eurogamer, not a hint of those graphical deficiencies) but some shops like to sell games before their street date
That means this particular YouTuber (TnShun) has already bought the game, completed it and unlocked this teaser trailer depicting a grown up Little Sister on...
While it hasn't been confirmed, merely in the form of a rumoured ESRB rating on the lovely ESRB ratings website, this is the best "better-than-rumour" rumour I've heard in a while
Mainly because, dude, it's Marvel vs. Capcom. MARVEL versus CAPCOM. Like Capcom being the same company that actually kick more tail than Nintendo and SEGA at the moment...
News Epicly Epic Cinematic Trailer For Resident Evil 5 Drops Out Of Tokyo Games Show!
I love this trailer
Not only does it show some famous Chris Redfield ass-kicking and tentatively prove that his partner Sheva will have a God-awful English accent - but it also has finally shows the re-emergence of Albert Wesker. Oh and the music at the end of the trailer is nothing short of sensational. Resident Evil 4 is like, my fourth favourite...

First Impressions SOCOM: Confrontation BETA on Playstation 3 Thoughts & Opinion
I got into the SOCOM: Confrontation BETA today and I keep reminding myself that I have to take the game exactly for what it is, a beta
It's kinda hard though when the game in question is such a shambles that this particular blogger found it nigh-on impossible to even get in a game. We're talking 2 hours hopping screens and menus gave a return of one...

News Sony Playstation 3 E3 2008 Conference Thoughts & Opinions
Definitely the best show of the lot regardless of what anyone else thinks
If you think that the Final Fantasy announcement trumps that God Of War III trailer your eyes are deceiving you. If you think Gears Of War 2's online mode looked good then surely MAG's 256 player online mode trumps that. Not that I'm rendering Microsoft's show as...
