Killzone 2 Caused Guerrilla Games “Growing Pains”
Monday, June 7th, 2010

It was just a little over 5 years ago when Sony not only revealed their brand-spanking new system to rule them all, but also jumped the gun a bit when they proudly displayed what it was capable of. While there’s no doubt in our minds the CELL and its 8 SPE’s are technically competent in [...]

PlayStation Move Wants in on the Summer Fun
Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

From the PS3 Slim and its portable sibling to the more recent Little Big Planet 2 fiasco, it’s pretty apparent Sony has a history of not being able to keep a secret. You would think those past blunders would prompt who ever’s in charge to make some swift changes, however it seems it’s business as [...]

Jaffe’s Non-Twisted Metal Game to be an E3 No Show
Monday, May 24th, 2010

It’s been a lengthy road to certainty regarding David Jaffe’s new game. For longer than we care to calculate on a Sunday night, Jaffe has periodically teased us with esoteric blog posts referencing the project his boys at Eat Sleep Play have been slaving away on. That said, while we may not know what it [...]

Tourne DVR Set to Recieve Update, US Still Left Behind
Friday, May 21st, 2010

Our friends and their PS3’s currently residing in Japan (we do have friends in Japan, right?) were recently treated to DVR functionality back in March of this year via the Torne add-on. We assume it’s worked out pretty well for them, but just to make sure their getting the most out of their watch-anytime, commercial-dodging [...]

Dead Nation Delays Apocalypse, Resistance Still Futile
Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Developer of Super StarDust HD fame, Housemarque, has been pretty tight lipped lately with regards to their latest contribution to the PSN family, Dead Nation. The title, which features a top down approach to zombie killing a la Zombie Apocalypse, was penciled in for a Spring 2010 release, however it seems there’s been a slight [...]

Your SOCOM 4 Squad Falls in for Inspection
Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Being a Navy SEAL is tough. If you’re not conducting a special op in hostile territory, you’re rescuing a hostage or performing some kind of super secret reconnaissance operation. Oh yeah, and you have to do it all without getting shot. That’s where you’re team comes in. They’re the ones watching your back while you’re [...]

IntesnaFIRE Mod Enables Rapid Fire, Crazy K/D Ratio
Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

It’s an event that happens all too often. You’re caught in an intense battle, exchanging shots with your arch nemesis – at least for this round – and you’re defeated not because your skills pale in comparison, no, but because your damn gun won’t fire fast enough. Yeah, that’s it. Well, kids, the geniuses over [...]

The Dead to Walk Again in Black Ops? Maybe.
Monday, May 17th, 2010

The year was 2008, and while Rick was busy rolling, Crocs where flying off shelves, millions of people began using the Wii to get fit, and Spaghetti Cat was popping up all over the web. We’re pretty sure a historical presidential election took place somewhere in there too. In any case, the year marked Treyarch’s [...]

New Call of Duty Domains Are Out of This World
Friday, May 14th, 2010

Despite losing a majority of the talent behind its cash cow and subsequently being sued, if you seriously thought Activision was going to sit back and not milk the Call of Duty franchise dry, well, you have our sympathy. Recently, several new web domains registered by the publishing behemoth and donning the Call of Duty [...]

The pitch here is that the gamers ultimately get to control how their favorite games evolve through the fine art of polling. Hit the jump [...]

PlayStation Move Priced North of the Border
Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Sony’s PlayStation Move was met with much praise back in March when it was officially detailed to the world. Promising real time precision tracking in 3D space and a magnitude of support for both casual and hardcore titles, a reception of anything less was a highly unlikely scenario. Still, being uber excited about an upcoming [...]
