Dark Void Screenshots and Trailer

So who likes retro game remakes? ME ME ME! I like a little side of nostalgia, especially during the holidays when all I want to do is hug people and eat cookies. It’s certainly a “feel good” time… unless my uncle decides to light the Christmas tree on fire again.
Dark Void is a DSi remake [...]

Infinite Space Might Actually Be Cool

When you hear Infinite Space – think a Final Fantasyish game. (It is a role-playing game that features turn based fighting.) Oh and – it’s a space opera. Nifty.
Infinite Space was introduced originally in 2008 by the developer Platinum (think Okami, Bayonetta and MadWorld).  The Tokyo Game Show in 2008 featured this game and there [...]

Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Co Op Trailer

Splinter Cell Conviction not only has Sam Fisher acting like a rogue agent after his Third Echelon life, but it also has some wicked co op mode included.  The game is going to feature a prologue that is  five hours(?!) that will star two brand new heroes. Like I always say, double teaming is always [...]

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands Going Back to Roots

The Prince of Persia games have gone through some transformations since the original story’s conception. I loved the Sands of Time Prince and I thought that the Warrior Within Prince was badass and kind of hot. Rival Swords was fun and finally brought a good game to the Wii console ( I was kind of [...]

Nintendo DS Gets Spore?

First of all, this is not Spore. It’s “Spore Creatures.” But even at that – what the crapola? This was obviously made for 5 year olds or those of us who drool on themselves. It’s cute… but it is past the level I am willing to drop to buy a game. 
Now Spore is brilliant (seeing [...]

The Geeks Unleashed

As much as I admire the fervor in which geeks rally and get excited for games, I don’t think I particularly like the idea of dressing up for a costume party in honor of the Force Unleashed game being released. But if I dressed up as a Star Wars character it would be Boba Fett, [...]

Harry Potter Delayed Until Summer 2009

Yes it will be available on every console known to mankind, but Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will not be release until summer of 2009. Now that stupid s.o.b’s game will cost the gamemaking company $120 million in revenue during this fiscal year.
That’s a lot of cash to be missing on account of digital [...]

A Brand New DS Cometh

The most popular handheld to grace greasy fingers is the Nintendo DS and the DS Lite. Aside from the DS Lite (and its plethora of colors) the gaming world hasn’t seen a new DS for years. The time, it seems, has finally dawned upon us. 
Although the above image is a user rendering of what we [...]

September Isn’t Just for Leaves

When you think of September you may think of amber leaves falling to the ground or a high school homecoming dress strewn across a motel room bed… but now it means so much more than that!
A buttload of awesome games are hitting the shelves in the ninth month of 2008. Will Wright’s first original non-Sims [...]

A New Colored DS Lite is in Town

The Nintendo DS Lite can be found in a variety of colors. You can play up Crisis Core in polar white, onyx, coral pink, and metallic rose. If you’re feeling a little two-faced you can play with a two-tone crimson/onyx or cobalt/black DS.
Now, with Nintendo rolling out DS Lites in more colors than I have [...]
