Well, it’s official. THQ sent out a press release earlier today stating that they will be bringing Saints Row to the Sony PlayStation 3. One knock that people have had against the PS3 is that they didn’t include all that many “must have” titles as part of their launch library, with Resistance: Fall of Man [...]
I played Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee for the Nintendo GameCube when it first came out and I thought it was going to be like that classic King of Monsters arcade fighting game. It was, sort of, but the novelty wore off really quickly and you couldn’t pay me to control that overgrown lizard again. [...]
Turns out that video games and video game-related videos just aren’t lucrative and/or attractive enough for the folks at GameTap, because according to Joystiq, the online video game service has expanded into the music download industry by offering its customers a selection of head-bobbing tracks from Fall Out Boy and The Hold Steady. I thought [...]
Gamebrink got their hands on the GPS attachment for the Sony PSP, and in a nutshell, they were not particularly impressed, giving the accessory a score of just 40/100. That’s pretty abysmal considering that the “Sony PSP GPS has a lot of potential.” At this time, most of the functionality is only good in Japan [...]
Apparently it’s “hardly a secret”, but it’s news to me. Apparently the video game industry is not immune to the concept of outsourcing. Some of our favourite all-time games were not developed and produced by who we thought. Instead, some company called “Tose” is responsible for several classics (some of which are pictured above, if [...]
It’s one thing to establish a huge video game franchise that has everyone lusting after your sequels well before you even knew you were working on a follow-up. It’s another thing altogether to maintain that sort of buzz after offering 3, 4, or 6 iterations of the series. Games Radar compiled what they believe to [...]
When the Nintendo Wii launched back in November, we were originally told that all of the Channels would be functional and ready to go. That didn’t exactly pan out as Ninty and crew had to apparently iron out some kinks. The Forecast Channel was sent out to WiiConnect24-enabled consoles in December, with the trial version [...]
Awesome! A technology named after this website (or maybe it was the other way around). Let’s take a virtual trip back to the 1980s when Nintendo was ho-humming about the creation of a new video game machine. This was before the days of a PlayStation or an Xbox, before we had Wii-motes and Grand Theft [...]
What did the Nintendo DS teach us? I’d have to say that the lesson learned was that video games aren’t just for “gamers.” Look at titles like Brain Age that brought in the “mature” population, Nintendogs that brought in girl gamers, and Elite Beat Agents that brought in players with rhythm. There are some fantastic [...]
The PlayStation 3 is said to push the graphical limit, offering us some fantastic looking titles in full 1080p high definition. I have to admit that MotorStorm looks pretty damn sweet, you know, like how Excite Truck for the Wii should have looked. But you know what, graphics don’t make the game. Sure, it’s great [...]
