MWN Reviews – The Beatles: Rock Band
If you’d told someone 40 years ago that one day there would be machines where you could play along to virtual versions of The Beatles with plastic instruments, they probably would have asked you what you were smoking and if they could have some of it. Hell, if you’d said a year ago that there […]
Rumour From Ground Control: Sgt.Johnson For Halo 3: ODST Is An Unlock Key
You’d think that in this day and age, you wouldn’t be able to get away with having unlock keys as downloadable content, but alas, it still happens and it looks like Halo 3: ODST is the latest example of this bullshit behaviour. If you didn’t already know, pre-ordering Halo 3: ODST gets you Sgt.Johnson for […]
Recommendations For Dead Musicians in Guitar Hero 6
Activision showed us with Guitar Hero World Tour that it’s perfectly fine to put a dead musician into a videogame for seemingly no reason. Then with The Beatles: Rock Band, we got a reanimated George Harrison and John Lennon, although with that game being about the band they both once belonged to, it made sense. However, Guitar […]
PAX 2009 First Impressions: Dante’s Inferno
I had the chance to get in some quality time with EA’s upcoming hack-and-slash title Dante’s Inferno, very loosely based on the first part of Dante Alighieri’s epic poem Divine Comedy. Like the poem, the game is a journey through the Nine Circles of Hell: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath, Heresy, Violence, Fraud, and Treason. […]
Toys R Us Posts Trade-In Values, We Laugh
We mostly raged actually but laughing makes for a better headline.
MWN Reviews – Batman: Arkham Asylum
Batman has had better luck than most when it’s come to video games. While Batman has also had his fair share of bat-crap, games like Batman on NES and Batman Returns on SNES/Mega Drive have saved him from the suffering that has faced other comic book heroes such as Superman for an extreme example. That […]
First GTA IV: The Ballad Of Gay Tony Trailer
Some people were happy with GTA IV where as others had issues with it compared to the previous games. However the game remains strong and today we get our first look at the second expansion for the game, The Ballad Of Gay Tony. The Lost and the Damned packed a lot of stuff in but […]
Demo Daze: WET
I remember that when WET first announced, it was a pretty big game. I don’t remember why but I remember there was a lot of hype for the game. Well 2 years later and a publisher change have passed since WET was announced and it looks set to fly under the radar when it’s released […]
MWN Reviews: I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES IN IT!!!!1
Xbox 360 Indie Games are still in their infancy right now and while there a few diamonds in the rough, most of the games are, quite frankly, garbage. But then, like I said, there are diamonds in the rough and one of the latest examples would be I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES IN IT!!!!1, […]
First COD4 PSP Screens Out…Or So You’d Think
At first glance, this would probably look like a PS1/N64 game to you. Okay maybe that’s a bit too harsh but you certainly wouldn’t think these were screens for a Wii game. Wii graphics jokes aside, we all know that the system is capable of more than this. Super Mario Galaxy is an example of […]
MWN Discusses: PS3 Slim
Well since it got announced at Gamescom yesterday, I thought it would make for a pretty good MWN Discusses topic. Hit the jump for the sexy discussion.
Why Sonic 2 Isn’t “A bit shit”
Every week, I listen to NGCast, which is our affiliate site Negative Gamer’s podcast.Recently, Editor-In-Chief Wardrox brought up how he had been playing Sonic The Hedgehog 2 properly for the first time and how he thought it was a “bit shit”. This comment was met by anger by the rest of the panel of the […]
Dungeon Fighter Online To Be Demoed At PAX
So you haven’t heard of Dungeon Fighter Online? I don’t blame you. DFO has been out in Korea, Japan, and China for a few years now, and is just making it’s way to our side of the Pacific later this year. You may be asking yourself why you should care about another Korean MMO, which […]
Vote for the next Genesis (MEGA DRIVE!) game on XBLA
While some of the selection of Genesis Mega Drive games on XBLA aren’t worth it (due to being on the collection) there are some that are, such as Gunstar Heroes. Now SEGA are letting you choose what game will be going on XBLA via this poll. This is part of SEGA’s celebration of the Genesis’s […]
Why Do I Keep Coming Back To Music Band Games?
It’s less than 4 weeks until The Beatles: Rock Band is released and needless to say, I’m pretty excited. I fell in love with the game ever since I saw the opening cinematic at the beginning of Microsoft’s E3 conference earlier this year and I’ve gotten more and more hyped as more information has trickled […]
