E3 2010: Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions Trailer Spikes my Interest

by Nick Henderson · June 8th, 2010 · 12 Comments

Let the E3 trailers begin… I am horribly split when it comes to the new Spider-Man game from Beenox… It looks like it could really be the worst thing to happen to Spider-man games since…. well… Web of Shadows. Here we have a relatively unknown and unproven (at least among “hardcore” gamers) developer handling a [...]

Mortal Kombat movie or viral campaign?

by Joseph Christ · June 8th, 2010 · 18 Comments

A short (7 minute) live action Mortal Kombat movie was released today. No one really seems to know exactly what this is for, but latinoreview.com is stating that it is most probably a demo reel used to sell a project to big publishers. This could mean that this is not footage from the actual movie [...]

Deus Ex 3 in Full CG Glory

by Brad Simons · June 4th, 2010 · 17 Comments

There was a time when Squaresoft made CG (at least that’s what we called it back then) that was years ahead of anyone else who even attempted it. They also made really great games back then too. And while the “great games” part is highly debatable these days, this trailer proves their CG team still [...]

Original Pitch Document for Bioshock Released

by Joseph Christ · May 21st, 2010 · 7 Comments

Personally, I find this awesome.  Today irrational games has released what they submitted as the original pitch for Bioshock, including the original back story (a man going to a remote island controlled by cultists to rescue a damsel in distress) and game design choices (bio-modification allowed the player to take on qualities of different forms of sea life). What [...]

Duty Calls: Black Ops

by Carlos · May 19th, 2010 · 13 Comments

The trailer for the new Call of Duty game by Treyarch was put up just last night. Check it. What do you guys think? I don’t know why, and I don’t mean to offend anyone but to me it looks like Modern Warfare 2: The Blooper Reel. It looks like there will be quite a [...]

Bulletstorm Trailer

Bathe thine self in the ludicrous scandalocity that is this leaden tempest.  Watch it in HD. You see that shit? At the end of the video it looks like he SHOT A MONKEY at that one dude! It’s actually a chain but, goddamn it, it looked like a monkey to me. I blame my enthusiasm [...]

Assassin’s Creed is Going Through Some Changes

by Nick Henderson · May 11th, 2010 · 10 Comments

Say what you will about video game release cycles but there is something comforting about knowing that you won’t have to wait years for another game in your favorite franchise. Games like Call of Duty are quickly adopting a sports game business model and shelling out new titles every year. By devoting multiple studios to [...]

New Marketing Trend!

by Nick Henderson · May 10th, 2010 · 13 Comments

Marketing is a complex process.  Marketers must use expertise and their own personal life experiences to make assumptions as to what would sell in the marketplace.  Video Game marketing is no exception and with the constant growth of the used game market and the impact that critical reception has on buying behavior, marketers are constantly [...]

UK’s Gordon Brown resigns to play Demon’s Souls

by Alan · May 10th, 2010 · 11 Comments

Thats my theory anyway.  Gordon Brown obviously saw the new European Release trailer and realized that he will never be able to govern properly AND get his Demon’s Souls playtime in.  Good on him for being honest to himself and the country he represents.  If only more leaders took those types of honest steps. For [...]

You got some War in my Wii

by Joseph Christ · May 6th, 2010 · 6 Comments

A bunch of new screens have been released today for WiiWare title Pearl Harbor Trilogy: 1941 Red Sun Rising.  Honestly it looks just O.K. and its really going to come down to price on this one.  Price and control, but the latter is always the crap shoot for a lot of Wii titles. The most interesting [...]

New Medal of Honor Trailer Sets the Tone

by Joseph Christ · May 6th, 2010 · 17 Comments

Below the fold you will find the newest trailer for Medal of Honor (2010).  The tone this trailer sets for this game is perfect, and if they can keep it up in the main game we are not only going to see a truly visceral experience but an emotional one as well. The emotional experience [...]
