Naughty Bear’s Alien Parody

Naughty Bear’s Alien Parody
Naughty Bear is probably the coolest game you’ve never heard of. The team at Artificial Mind & Movement have put together a game that takes the cutesy childhood teddy bear & makes it go completely bad. Look for it to release soon (read: Q2 2010) for the Xbox 360 & the Playstation 3. For now, here’s the latest trailer for it, doing a parody of the movie Alien… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Xbox 360 LIVE Usage: Week Of 2/22

Xbox 360 LIVE Usage: Week Of 2/22
Straight from the mouth (or fingers as the case may be) of Major Nelson, here’s the latest LIVE usage details. Nothing on the full retail list elicits any sort of surprise reaction from me, but I am happy to see how effective the Deal of the Week is in pushing Arcade titles. Duke Nukem 3D is just the latest in a long line of XBLA games that haven’t really been looked at in a while, yet now all of a sudden is the number one title. As long as gamers keep up the support, this program will continue to exist, bringing us a bit more value for our points… Bookmark It Hide...

Tecmo Bowl To Evolve With ‘Throwback’

Tecmo Bowl To Evolve With ‘Throwback’
If you check out my list of games that I’ve played, you’ll be hard pressed to find any sports titles on there. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy most sports & their gaming counterparts, although I may not be as much of a fan as your average male. It’s just been a combination of a lot of really good games in other genres & my total irritation at the thought that, in order to stay current, I would have to buy a new title each year. It’s even more of an issue this generation when online connectivity & downloadable content is the standard. Why make me pay $60 a...

Just Cause Tests It’s Parachute This Week

Just Cause Tests It’s Parachute This Week
The sequel for the 2006 revolution-instigating, parachute-wielding Just Cause will have a demo released this week. If you remember, the original game took place in the fictional Caribbean island called San Esperito & followed the exploits of Rico Rodriguez, a CIA black-ops agent tasked with starting a revolution to have dictator Salvador Mendoza overthrown. For Just Cause 2, the premise will stay fairly the same, seeing Rico travel to Southeast Asia to the island of Panau to overthrow the dictator Baby Panay & also have a face off with his former boss, Tom Sheldon. The whole game is said...

W!Games Is A ‘Greed’y ‘Corp’oration

W!Games Is A ‘Greed’y ‘Corp’oration
Alright, I was probably reaching way down in the bottom of the cheese bag for that title. But seriously, W!Games has been hyping Greed Corp for some time now so seeing it finally launch (& there-by giving me a chance to play it) is something I wanted to bring to your attention. The Xbox LIVE Arcade & Playstation Network title is a turn-based strategy game based on the Mistbound universe. The single player features 4 factions, 24 maps, & over 10 hours of gameplay while the multiplayer will pit you against up to 3 other people (for a total of 4) in local, online, or bot-controlled action...

Zero Punctuation: Dante’s Inferno
I don’t know if I should be surprised or happy. I was not privy to a review copy of Dante’s Inferno, but after some time with the demo, I had some ideas of what it would be once I finally had the funds to grab a copy for a proper review. Yahtzee’s impressions of the retail game are almost identical to my impressions of the demo. Although, “hairy buns” would be the one exception… Bookmark It Hide Sites

The demo for MLB 2K10 is now available on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace. Queue it up here… Looks like Batman: Arkham Asylum pleased publisher Warner Bros quite a bit, as news broke the day before yesterday that they just became a majority stake holder in developer Rocksteady. I wonder if this has anything to do with SquareEnix getting phased out of the sequel?… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Trailer: General Knoxx

Trailer: General Knoxx
The Secret Armory of General Knoxx is the 3rd piece of DLC for Gearbox’s hit RPS, Borderlands. The biggest of the 3 updates, it’ll add new loot, vehicles, & enemies to the already full-bodied title. But the best part is the level cap increase, allowing players to go beyond the current cap of 50. My Borderlands review will go live in a few days & I should have a review covering all 3 DLC packs next week. You can queue up General Knoxx for your Xbox 360 here. Playstation 3 players will have access to it later this week as apart of the normal Playstation Store update (PC players...

Rapture City Counsel Approves Expansion
2K Games announced new expansion plans for BioShock 2 today. As will all high profile releases these days, Rapture’s return to our consoles will have “extensive downloadable content” according to the latest press release from 2K.

It will add 5 new masks, a 3rd upgrade for each weapon, 20 new trials, two new playable characters (Louie McGraff and Oscar Calraca) & the level cap will be raised to 50. The Sinclair Solutions Test Pack is expected to hit both platforms next month for 400 MP or $5. Addition plans for...
