Prototype went quiet after a few well-publicised slips and poorly received demos. Obviously, not content to release a half-arsed effort, Radical have beavered away to improve the game significantly and the demo vids after the cut certainly show a more refined game. Hopefully, as it approaches release, we’ll see something a bit more structured than […]

Meta-publisher SEGA have released their early-2009 release schedule, including choice morsels such as definitive March release dates for Madworld & Empire: Total War (but we knew that anyway), over-confident Q1 releases for Alpha Protocol & the feared-dead Aliens: Colonial Marines and possibly-2009-but-we’re-not-really-sure releases for Xbox/PS3 DMC-esque Bayonetta. Source – Videogamer.com The full list lives after […]
Because we’re having a slow news time, what with there being a typical post-christmas lull, a global recession and nothing but a load of announcements & promises in the form of press releases (coupled with the fact we forgot to do it in 2008), here’s the CNS Best of 2008
Gameplayer.com.au has an interview with Rick White of Volition, producer on their third-person (nee first-person) shooter set on the dust red and geo-moddable landscapes of Mars. An interesting point of note is Volition’s claim to be ramping the Xbox 360 hardware (which is clearly the lead platform, as usual these days) to its very limits […]

Zavvi console sale – update
Destructoid is reporting that Virgin Megastores Zavvi is now pumping out Xbox 360 Arcade SKUs in its retail outlets for a Sainsbury’s equalling £99. The more attractive/feature-complete Premium SKUs are going for £149 & l33t Elites for a snip under £200 too. The rival PS3 is also coasting at £269.99, which means it’s still cheaper […]
Vin Diesel is the celebrity video gamer! Not content to speak about them all the time and name drop ‘playing on PlayStation’ in every film he’s in, but he even owns his own damn games studio that has managed to stay afloat for 6 years whilst only being actively involved in ONE GAME! Take that […]
The first trailer offering a glimpse of footage of the episodic video-game Watchmen: The End is Nigh has been released. Hit the jump for viewing & analysis…
Those Spike VGAs just keep on giving! Terminator Salvation is (essentially) the fourth Terminator film, but it holds the awkward distinction of being a pseudo-reboot too… boot! The focus seems to have shifted squarely from the steely-eyed evil-robot-goes-good to the squishy humans of the piece and their survival of the enevitable Judgement Day & the […]
Determined to prove they’re as inconsistent as ever, the Australian OFLC has decided to reclassify the recently banned sequel to Monolith’s shooter as MA 15+, allowing its sale at retail (probably to minors). Games on Net carries the article following breaking the story of the games ban-titude a month ago. This change of heart probably […]
As the title suggests, Kikizo have interviewed Terminal Reality (unsurprisingly) about their Ghostbusters game that was recently saved from the chasm of oblivion by (of all people) Atari. They touch upon (amongst other things) the multi-player mode, the boss fights, the original premise of the game being an official ‘Ghostbusters 3’ and anticipation about being […]
