Bioshock 2 Aspect Ratio Woes

Bioshock 2 Aspect Ratio Woes

Many of you may remember that when the first Bioshock came out, that the game was awesome, but there was a serious problem with the PC version…regarding an el-cheapo method that 2K made wide-screen on the PC.

Wil Wheaton: Keynote of PAX East

Wil Wheaton: Keynote of PAX East

I kid Wil Wheaton, he seems like a nice enough guy, but I don’t understand what he’s done to deserve the adulation that he gets from the geek communities. Regardless, he’s keynote speaking at PAX East this year. Kinda glad that I’m not attending this one. I wonder who will speak at the REAL PAX […]

Barry Burton in Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition

Rebecca Chambers too, and I can already hear the internet swelling with titillation. I can’t wait to get the DLC for myself just so I can recreate one of the best mp3s that I randomly came across during the Napster years. It’s going to be so awesome to hear the same stale Jill-sandwich line over […]

Ghost Recon: Future Soldier – Teaser Trailer

Ok so, I was bitching about not being able to find any pictures of this game in action and Crom answered my prayers…we now have a teaser trailer for the game and it’s pretty awesome, especially the active camouflage near the end.

Deus Ex 3 Coming?

Deus Ex 3 Coming?

Doing a bit of digging around on the interwebs today, I found an interesting morsel of gaming goodness. It seems our good buddies at Square Enix are wastin no time getting old Eidos properties up and running again, but this time we might get an even higher quality sequel to Deus Ex, not saying that […]

Morning Cup o’ Music

Oh man, this video is the pinnacle of the 1980s kids movie music video. Not only is it the only track from The Goonies that I can easily remember…but there is an amazing amount of pro wrestlers from that era too. I mean, The Iron Sheik, Captain Lou Albano, Mean Gene Okerlund, Rowdy Roddy Piper, […]

Introducing Ghost Recon: Future Soldier

Ubisoft has announced their big news (that they’ve been hinting about for a couple of days) today and I’m sure that most people will greet it with exasperated MEHs. I for one, am thrilled.

Dead Space: Extraction Jumping From the Wii?

Dead Space: Extraction Jumping From the Wii?

Today, Visceral Games has released Dante’s Inferno. What’s next for them? A few days ago, we wrote an article about them not wanting to do sequels to Inferno (though we know that Purgatorio and Paradiso will eventually come into being), and that they wanted to focus on Dead Space II as their next project. That […]

Spore on Consoles?

Spore on Consoles?

Ok so what makes the people at EA think that anyone who has a console could even be remotely interested in picking up an eighteen month old game…let alone one that doesn’t seem to be that user friendly without a mouse. That’s exactly what they’re doing, and that’s not all.

Morning Cup o’ Music

Today’s MCoM is brought to you courtesy of my childhood. I can remember going to see the Transformers: The Movie back when I was just a lad of six, I cried during the death of Optimus, cheered during the death of Starscream and laughed during the “Dare to be Stupid Scene”, it was magical. Little […]

I Disagree with Molyneux

I Disagree with Molyneux

The creator of the Fable series and the guy who pretty much runs the Microsoft Xbox scene in Europe has come out saying that Natal will be akin to the computer mouse when it comes to innovation in games and how we interact with our computers. I happen to disagree with him.

Repo Men – Red Band Trailer

Repo Men – Red Band Trailer

Hmmm…Jude Law and Forrest Whittaker both playing heartless murdering bastards? Wait a second is that Liev Schreiber? Ok, that’s it…I’m sold. Now to wait the next 40 days until it hits the cinema. Oh, its a pretty NSFW trailer, so you’ve been warned and all that jazz.
