In May 2010, EA’s Skate franchise makes a return for a third go round. You’ll rarely see a skater boarding on his own. He/She will always have a group of buddies around. EA has noticed this & as such, the focus for Skate 3 will focus on building up the Ultimate Skate Crew. Players will...

I must admit, I’m interested. Wait, I think I’m getting ahead of myself here. This last weekend in Seattle at the annual Penny Arcade Expo, I ran into Drew Hahn, the Need For Speed: Shift Community Manager for EA. I had the pleasure of chatting it up with him at E3 & grew to like him...

So, yesterday I told you about the newest DLC pack for Mass Effect. We not only had a title & a price, but a little bit of what it will consist of & the fact that it was currently available in Sweden. Almost immediately after I posted that, I had to update it with a statement from the Mass Effect...

It was rumored a long time ago that a new DLC pack would be incoming. Then, in late June, the Bioware Twitter account tweeted than a new Mass Effect DLC announcement would be coming later in the week. Fans from around the world waited on baited breath for an announcement that never came. Then, the Mass...

The PC version of Battlefield 1943 has been delayed…again. I understand, as the PC has many more variables to content with than the consoles do. But, I’m sure the PC-only players may not be so forgiving having to wait until December now. My advice? Go steal your brother’s 360 or PS3...

For many years (as long as I can remember in fact), non-gamers have touted video games as an addictive entertainment medium that made players overweight. I don’t know if it was because I was a gamer, or because I’m not a lemming & actually use my intelligence, but I never agreed with...

Brutal Legend is one of those games that I dismissed when it was first announced. Even with Tim Schafer’s involvement, I still wasn’t ‘wowed’. But, as the development moved along & more & more of thee game assets became available, my mindset began to shift. After getting...

“Yooooo Joe!!” How many of you remember that? I remember running around the neighborhood with my buddies, each of us screaming that phrase as we hunted down the evil Cobra Commander. We would always fight over who got to be Snake Eyes & Duke, & of course we always made neighborhood...

Spore Hero is the upcoming Wii version of the PC hit Spore. But, it isn’t just a straight port. This one is an all new adventure that pits the player in a quest to save the planet. It’s considerably more action oriented than it’s more sim-like PC cousin. But, it’s still a Spore...

Wow, GameTrailers was on a roll last night! First the Halo Legends debut & now this. With the game not launching until 2010 at the earliest, details are scarce. What we do know is that Kane is back & that this one will wrap up the Tiberium saga. I personally can’t wait as I’m a big...

Here we sit, 12 years after the release of the first Harry Potter novel, (Harry Potter & The Philosopher’s Stone) & the popularity of the franchise seems to be just as strong as ever. In addition to the books, various (& sometimes dubious) merchandise still flies off the shelves ensuring...

As gamers, where would we be without the stories & settings to come out of World War II? It’s a time period that’s been beat to death & resurrected only to be beat to death once again so many times that many gamers refuse to play anything that has the Axis or Allied powers in it....

Busy day for me, so this is real late getting out. Sorry to everyone who was looking for it earlier… EA announced the for the first time the franchise’s history, EA Sports FIFA Manager 10 will now have an online mode that will support both LAN & online Multiplay… Bookmark It Hide...

With G.I.Joe: Rise of Cobra releasing in just a few short weeks, I’m surprised at the lack of PS3 screenshots. Apparently EA was reading my mind as they have released 4 new ones today. At first, I kept thinking this was going to be another cup full of movie tie-in dreck. But after seeing it in...

360Junkies is giving away a bunch of Xbox Live Arcade code for the games in the Hasbro Family Game Night set. This is an easy one to enter too!
