There has been a lot of Saints Row news over the past week or so, which is weird, since most of the world had forgotten Saints Row existed. But it does, and it’s back in full force. Not only with a third game in the series, but a secondary title called Saints Row: Drive By, which is coming to Xbox Live Arcade and the Nintendo 3DS.

Tweet When ModNation Racers first came out, I got a chance to play it at my local GameStop. If there was one thing I learned about that game in my fifteen-odd minutes of playing it, it’s that it offers a loooooot of customization options, whether we’re talking about racing tracks or racing characters. That said, [...]

Ripten takes a look at Telltale’s latest point-and-click mystery series. Telltale says the game is influenced by the Professor Layton series- but is it as good?

On one hand, I could tell you about this interactive Twilight: Eclipse game based on the movie, and explain that it’s actually a really neat use of YouTube’s interactive annotations feature. On the other hand, I could turn a blind eye to it, scoff and say “Twilight is for dumb eleven year old girls.” Dilemma!

It looks like Kinect will launch this fall with a 57-degree horizontal field of view, a maximum 640 x 480 camera resolution (webcam quality, essentially) at 30 frames per second, and here’s the kicker- support for six people, but two active players at a time at most.

As one of their most popular series since the Wii launched, Ubisoft be crazy not to release a new Rabbids game this fall, around the time that kids will start to compile their wish lists for Santa.

Sometimes holding things in your hand can be really difficult- and Japanese accessory manufacturer Hori knows that problem all too well.

Nickelodeon Fit is a new Wii-exclusive series of games aimed to get kids off of the couch and exercising, but having fun while doing it. The plan to do so is with Balance-Board supported games featuring characters from Nickelodeon cartoons like Dora The Explorer, Kai-Lan, and The Backyardigans. (I guess those are all shows.)

It’s actually been a while since we’ve heard parents complain about video game violence and kids, and I’m shocked, really. Come on, parents- don’t you know your kids are playing Grand Theft Auto, then going out and smoking cocaine off of hookers …

Earlier this month, an Activision survey leaked that detailed two things: the new GoldenEye 007 game, which was confirmed by Nintendo at their E3 press conference, and two shots of GoldenEye-related peripherals, one of a golden-clad classic controller, and another of a Wiimote-nunchuk shell in the shape of Goldeneye’s infamous Klobb. When Nintendo confirmed GoldenEye 007 for Wii, they didn’t confirm the controller- but it looks like GameStop might have gone ahead and confirmed it for them…

I never got into the whole strategy game craze, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how much people love the genre. If you’re one of the aforementioned people, you’ll probably be jealous to hear that South Korean World of Warcraft gamers are being rewarded with free copies of Starcraft II.
