In case you didn’t already own Plants vs. Zombies on another platform (and if so, why the hell not?) or at least, on enough platforms (three and counting!) you’ll be pleased to know that PopCap will be dropping Plants vs. Zombies on Xbox Live next month, on September 8th.

Legends & Killers DLC will hit PSN for $9.99 and Xbox Live for 800 Microsoft space bucks next week, bringing a new projectile weapon, the Tomahawk, nine new map locations, and eight characters from Red Dead Revolver.

Those of you waiting for news on the newest entry to the God of War franchise will have to wait no longer, as Sony is announcing today that Ghost of Sparta, the sequel to 2008′s incredible Chains of Olympus, will hit the PSP on November 2nd, right in time for you to put it on your Christmas wishlists.

Despite the heavy focus a lot of gamers tend to put on graphics in this day and age, I will always stand by the idea that games can be fun and enjoyable without having flashy, realistic, “next-gen” graphics. Way of the Pixel member & pixel artist Junkboy can probably back me up on this too, as he has created over twenty pixelated video game “demake” pieces that support such an idea.

In a move that surprises absolutely nobody, Marvel and Sega are planning to release a Thor video game to coincide with the release of the film in Summer of 2011. While I have no information on the game besides the trailer to go on, if Iron Man & other comic-to-movie video games are any indication, this game won’t be so great.

If you played the past few DiRT games, chances are that you enjoy the series. I’ve loved the past two games, and while Colin McRae’s sudden death in 2007 certainly put a hamper on things, the second game was a lovely tribute to the rally driver. That said, I’m beyond excited to see this first image from DiRT 3, courtesy of Codemasters’s Comm. Director, Richard Eddy.

Tweet For all of the grief I give Activision for beating and murdering the once-special Guitar Hero franchise, DJ Hero was tons of fun. I’ve got a weird love for mashups, even if the two songs on their own are terrible, so DJ Hero’s mashups were right up my alley- but that doesn’t mean I’m [...]

My favorite series on the DS, without a doubt, is Professor Layton. I’m a sucker for clever puzzles and an even more clever story, so Layton & Luke’s adventures are right up my alley, but I don’t know if I can wait ‘ til September 20th to continue the series. Oh hey, it looks like I might not have to!

Techcrunch has a pretty strong reputation of reporting rumors that end up being true, especially when they’re related to tech & software companies. So when they tell us that Google has reportedly invested between $100 million and $200 million …

When I pre-ordered Scribblenauts for the DS last year, the game came with an awesome bonus; a rooster hat similar to the one Max wears in-game. I love that hat- I still wear it periodically, even. When I go in to GameStop next week to preorder Sonic Colors, the Sonic wig they gave me will surely go nicely with my hat.

Sony’s newest foray into motion controlled gaming is the Playstation Move. In order to use the Playstation Move, you must have a Playstation Eye and at least a Wand controller, though some games require a nunchuck as well. These peripherals cost a grand total of $130 minimum for one person. That said, Sony wants you to know that this pricing is done so they can profit from it. Duuuuuuh.

If you’re looking forward to playing Mafia II as much as we are, maybe you’re gonna buy the PC version. Maybe you just can’t live without shooting up gangsters in a sandbox city in 3D, eh? Well, if that’s your goal, then you’re going to need a PC that fits the following requirements.

Tweet It’s been about 10 years since we’ve seen an original MediEvil game, even though we got a PSP remake in 2005 and a PSN port in 2007. Sony’s popular platformer hasn’t been through many revisions or updates lately, despite the fact that I know many people who would love to jump into Sir Dan’s [...]

If you don’t recognize the name “Irrational Games”, you’ll probably recognize the name they went by before April this year- 2K Boston. Reverting back to their previous name, the Bioshock creators took up the name “Irrational Games” once more before announcing that they’re working on a new, original game. And now they want you to employ your psychic powers to guess what it is!

Despite the fact that I jump whenever someone says “boo”, I’m really looking forward to Dead Space 2. Visceral’s third-person space shooter is looking like a great sequel to one of 2008′s most popular games, and for a shooter, it has a rather gripping story behind it. Visceral and EA are looking to extend this story with the downloadable prequel Dead Space Ignition.
