Shank has a lot of people interested…
Whether it’s the Penny Arcade-esque imagery, the Streets of Rage gameplay or the metric shit-ton of violence, it just can’t seem to hit our desktops/consoles quick enough. The fact it has been picked up by EA Partners is even better.
There’s a trailer after the cut from the GDC. It [...]

The teaser trailer for War for Cybertron didn’t give a lot away… The bullshot rendered movie showed everyone where they were intending to go but didn’t drop much in the way of gameplay.
As a result, reservations were cast and everyone moved on, leaving everyone firmly divided into either the ‘wait and see’ or ‘it’ll be [...]

Like Infinity Ward & (possibly) Valve, some people at BioWare obviously want to make movies… Big booming grand epics with loads of gravitas.

It’s only January (not even 10% of the way through the year) and we may already have a prime Game of the Year [...]

It’s official – Venice-based Blur Studios do some good shit. They even made the only decent bit of the hateful Transformers movie tie-in game.
They have since done a cinematic* trailer for Mass Effect 2 and it looks very nice in its obscenely highly detailed character model-ness.
Find it after the cut…

I liked Arkham Asylum… so much a little wee nearly came out when the news came in – Batman is back.
No doubt Arkham Asylum 2 is going to be a placeholder name, although seeing as the Asylum has seemingly managed to move brick-by-brick to the middle of the city, it’s a surprisingly accurate description.
It’s probably [...]

Before I start, I completely understand that this might turn out too be a pile of turgid shit.
Transformers is one of those licenses that seem a sure-fire easy way to make the best game in the world ever, yet often falls flat on its face in execution. Actually, following the unchecked brilliance of Arkham Asylum, [...]

Bob Came In Pieces looks to be an effortlessly charming about an alien who crashes on a planet (as they all do). Said alien then has to rebuild his ship and escape (as they all do). Said escape attempt must take the form of numerous physics puzzles (seeing a pattern here).
Due shortly from Swedish developers [...]

Brink, the strange single/multiplayer FPS hybrid from Enemy Territory guys, Splash Damage has been delayed till late next year. Presumably they think the next Call of Duty is fair game for a scrap (it is, after all, probably by Treyarch).
As a compromise, we get a video showing the clever movement system.
The Truth? Looks no more [...]

She was one of the better characters in the original game, even though she was often stuck in the background (also, no media attention was given too her because she wasn’t a psychotic toad or sex option).
Essentially a child forced into a dangerous quest by her culture, Tali offered a sheltered yet insightful view of [...]
