Tweet Could’ve fooled me. I saw this trailer for Crank 2 and about five seconds into it, I thought to myself “This has to be a joke. This has to be a Black20 trailer or something.” But no… This really is the trailer for a really horrible sequel to an incredibly horrible movie. Watch now [...]

Tweet The Escapist reports that Street Fighter IV, Capcom’s latest addition to the legendary franchise, will feature an extensive (and I mean extensive) “Trial mode”. Essentially a tutorial, this game mode aims to create tournament level players out of novices. Seth Killian, Capcom’s senior community manager, notes that “It begins with normal moves, then it [...]

Tweet Hot out of Free Radical’s open wound, Kotaku have found a goldmine of Star Wars Battlefront 3 footage, a game which the former company was working on. It looks, well, like the other Battlefront games. That’s no complaint; there’s no harm at all in sticking to a winning formula. Let’s hope the new developers [...]

Tweet Steam news has details of a huge Left 4 Dead PC patch, available now to all Steam users. The patch has a lot of bug fixes, as well as gameplay tweaks and changes. The Hunter gets “Increased Minimum damage” for a pounce, solving the frustration that a short-range pounce is almost worthless. Hopefully it [...]

Tweet Like most things in life, the more something is hyped, the higher your expectations. Killzone 2 is currently the subject of so much hyperbole that it’s starting to damage what people will think of the game. Killzone 2, as you may have heard, is the best thing in the world since sliced bread. The [...]

Tweet Open world first-person shooters would strike fear into even the most robust developer, and to a certain extent the task has trumped Ubisoft, holding their game back from being the classic it might have been. Although it has its draw backs, Far Cry 2’s freedom results in a unique, engaging experience that other first-person [...]

Tweet Eminem seems to be getting in on Soulja Boy’s music and videogaming status in this clip. In the video (probably NSFW audio), he makes damn sure that all of you Left 4 Dead players out there know what to do in a certain situation. In fact, he seems very passionate about the subject indeed, [...]

Tweet Destructoid and PS3 Fanboy, combine! Together, they report that the English demo for Capcom’s zombie shooter Resident Evil 5 will be out on January 26 for Xbox 360 owners, and the week of February 5th for PS3 owners. Set your calendars; I certainly recommend you try it.

Tweet PSU have posted up an intriguing rumour concerning Rockstar’s blockbuster GTA franchise. The site claims that the latest issue of Game Informer features news that a new full retail game, in a similar style to ‘GTA: San Andreas’ and the like (new game, but not full sequel), will release by the end of 2009. [...]

Tweet Street Fighter IV is getting closer and closer to release, and is becoming more desirable at a similar rate. It’s videos like this one that are doing a lot of the work. While perhaps some are a little underwhelming, many of the game’s ultra moves live up to their name in spectacle alone. The [...]

Tweet I have never played any of the Yakuza series, but from what I gather they sound a lot like the GTA games, which makes sense.  They both deal with mobs, violence, and sex.  New screens and info about Yakuza 3 let us move into the somewhat seedy and dangerous world of the hostess bar.

Tweet After playing Assassin’s Creed last year and playing Prince of Persia: Sands of Time a few years back, I was pretty stoked about playing the latest installment of the Prince of Persia series. Sadly, I was stoked only until I actually played the game because it wasn’t as good as I thought it would [...]

Tweet [youtube width="510" height="402"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dokx-vzBcmA&eurl=http://www.kombo.com/index.php&feature=player_embedded[/youtube] Got a little somethin’, somethin’ for you Final Fantasy fanatics out there. Here’s a short video of Final Fantasy XIII producer Yoshinori Kitase talking about the upcoming game and showing off some clips. Too bad it’s all in Japanese and I don’t have a clue what he’s saying, but the footage [...]

Tweet Shacknews reports that Fallout 3′s first downloadable content pack will be available on 27 January. Operation: Anchorage (the name of the pack) will allow players to liberate Anchorage from China, and you can play in the snow it will take about 4-5 hours to complete. The pack costs 800 MS points on 360 and [...]

Tweet I nearly featured the word “shockingly” in the title of this post. Nearly. Just count yourself lucky that I didn’t. Anyway, watch this video. I’d known about inFamous, the latest from the Sly Cooper team, for a while before watching this, but I wasn’t half as excited for the game back then. What the [...]
