A gruesome report coming to us from Canada tells the tale of two teenage boys (16 and 18) who raped and murdered an 18-year-old girl after she apparently ignored their textual advances.

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.

Prior to E3 this year, we saw teases of a game from Square-Enix, as a trailer showed up outside of the Staples Center. At the time, we only knew that the game involved a company called Nerkas Solutions Inc. We were all pretty confused …

For those of you that played and completed Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty, you probably remember the sly message after the credits, saying “The Quest Continues Fall 2009.” Insomniac Games made good on their promise, announcing Ratchet and Clank: A Crack In Time, the last of the PS3 trilogy, at GDC this past week.

Tonight was the Spike TV VGAs, and though the show pretty much tanked as usual, I have to say that some of the footage shown during the show piqued my interest a lot. If you didn’t see the trailers that were shown during the VGAs, you can catch every one of them after the jump, [...]

It utilizes the Wii Fit’s gyration/motion-sensing technology to make you feel like you’re actually [...]

Rockstar may break with their tradition of three trailers before the release of a Grand Theft Auto game that began during the GT3 era. This is either to symbolise the fourth entrance in the series, or to fill the gash that has opened since it was delayed.

As we previously reported, Xbox Live has not been having a good time, what with all the disconnects and general wonkiness. All this was meant to be fixed by the end of the weekend.
