Fallout New Vegas – Announced & Trailer

Fallout New Vegas – Announced & Trailer

Well whores it’s official, the game has been given a release window, a trailer, and a collective “fap” from all of us on staff here at MWN. The trailer shows Vegas as the glittering jewel of the desert that we all know it to be, meaning that they might not have been hit as hard […]

Just Cause 2 – Freedom Trailer

Just Cause 2 – Freedom Trailer

I know there weren’t a whole ton of people impressed with the first Just Cause, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The sequel though, looks to set the first one on fire in a wheelchair down a busy street in San Francisco…it looks just so sexy. Square Enix and Eidos look like they have a pretty […]

Morning Cup o’ Music

Damn, after today’s post…there’s only one more day that I can use for the theme this week of Flight of the Conchords. There’s just so many great tracks to try and pick from. I had no problems settling on today’s track though, the song “Bowie” that Jemaine and Bret are performing above is such great […]

Sony to Charge for PSN?

Sony to Charge for PSN?

Ok, people, please remain calm. There is no need to get panties in wads. Sony hasn’t actually come out and said that they’ll be charging $X.XX for subscriptions, but keep in mind that not only has there been proof from a Sony conference (see above), but two of their corporate officers have said as much.

Coheed & Cambria’s Year of the Black Rainbow

My mind is blown…and I only got to hear a few seconds from the new album that will close out the entire concept album saga of The Amory Wars. They ended the story with No World For Tomorrow a little while back, but now they’re going to reveal all in Year of the Black Rainbow.

Kick-Ass: Red Band Trailer

Kick-Ass: Red Band Trailer

I’m so damned excited for this movie to come out, you have no idea. I can’t wait to see all the conservatives here in the United States get their panties in a wad when they hear the mouth on Hit Girl…or the fact that she’s murdering people left and right. Wait, they’ll be alright with […]

Square’s Nier – Dated

Square’s Nier – Dated

If you’re a fan of action RPGs, and let’s face it, who isn’t these days? You should feel a bit more chipper knowing that Nier (aka Nier Gestalt in Japan) has been given release dates for the non-moonspeak countries. Gamers in the US and Europe can expect the game to arrive worldwide on the 27th […]

Whorin The Games – February 3rd Edition

Whorin The Games – February 3rd Edition

This week, there’s not really much of anything that I see as an absolute “must-have” for any one of my gaming systems…though I am leaning towards picking up one game in particular…but you’ll have click that little button right there to see what that might be.

Armored Core 5 – Trailer

Being the only whore here at MWN to own just about every giant mech game put out in the last 15 years or so, including all of the Armored Core and Gundam games. Yes, all of them. Even the impossibly hard Project Phantasma and the ultra shitty Crossfire for the PS3…I like to think of […]

BioShock 2 Launch Trailer

I think I might have just changed my mind about this game. I’m moving the meter from “apathetic” to “wait and see”. Man, that’s some pretty CG!

Jonathan Knight is a Buffoon

Jonathan Knight is a Buffoon

Ok, let me come at you with a proposition. Say you’re the executive for a game developer and you have a hotly anticipated title coming out soon. By hotly anticipated game, we’re talking one that will easily sell millions of units for the distributor who has bought your IP. This isn’t just speculation, the game […]

New Screens for NBA Jam on the Wii

New Screens for NBA Jam on the Wii

Wow, I had no idea this was even being considered…much less getting a complete remake and headed to the Wii only! It’s official though EA is in-fact making a new NBA JAM that will be Wii only! The game is still based on 2D gameplay (that’s a good thing kids) and from the pictures, it […]

Morning Cup o’ Music

I don’t think they’ve ever put this one on an album, but by far, this was my favorite moment of season 1 of Flight of the Conchords. In an effort to cheer Bret up from his depression, Jemaine writes him a song that calls his sexuality into question…well not for him really because in his […]

Dante’s Inferno – Super Bowl Ad

Screw watching the SuperBowl and the commercials in-between, we gamers demand instant gratification! You can now watch the ad for Dante’s Inferno right now. I still think this game is a must have for any gamer out there. We had a hands-on at PAX this year and the game plays like God of War on […]

Hey 360 Owners, Enjoy Your 3-Disc FFXIII

Hey 360 Owners, Enjoy Your 3-Disc FFXIII

I, for one, will be enjoying the one-disc only version of Final Fantasy XIII on my PS3. Call me a fanboy, but nothing drags you out of a game more than having to swap discs. The great news is that it isn’t going to be the massive 27-DVD volumes like many people made photoshops of. […]
