Got Psyched?: Wolfenstein Trailer

Wolfenstein has already been ‘rebooted’ once, in the form of the successful and quite good (providing you ignore the boss battles) Return to Castle Wolfenstein, but now Raven are back with the follow-up, cunningly named just ‘Wolfenstein’ (so that newbies to the great-great-great-grandfather of Halo won’t be scared of it because it doesn’t have Master […]

Rapture Anti-discrimination Laws: BioShock 2 all-formats release + details

Fear not PS3 owners – you won’t be treated like deferred citizens (I hesitate to use the term second class, since you got a bunch of add-ons) this time round, as the return to Rapture will be handled simultaneously on all formats come Q4 2009, although I’m not sure if that’s fiscal or real year. […]

Will Beta be less buggy?: Alpha Protocol Trailer

I’m hoping the title is a misnomer, given Obsidian’s past form (which honestly gives Troika a run for their money!), you can’t blame me for being apprehensive. Regardless, Alpha Protocol is looking good – Bourne really rejigged the spy genre (hence why they copied the style for the Craig-powered Bond films) and this looks too […]

Burnout × Red Faction ÷ NFS: Most Wanted?: Split/Second debut

Kudos to RPS for this one. Disney have stepped into the arcade racer fight with Split/Second, a racing game that differentiates itself from the crowd by offering various methods of defeating your opponents by bringing the world down on them, literally.

Woss does it again: Fable III unofficially official… unofficially!

In what could be considered a characteristically common move, Johnathan Ross has once again said something he probably shouldn’t have.  The loud-mouthed chatshow host (and avid gamer) has frequently let slip potentially litigious banter through several Web 2.0 outlets. Whilst participating in a bit of post-BAFTA Twittering, the chatterbox star let slip something he ‘probably’ […]

F.E.A.R. 2 DLC – insert ‘afraid of DLC’ joke here

Pretty much as it says on the tin here…  WBIE have announced DLC for F.E.A.R. 2 on all platforms (well, all it was released on…  because giving Wii owners F.E.A.R. 2 DLC would be stupid, wouldn’t it). Not really much to go on re: content or price, but it will be available in April and […]
