EA DROPS CHARGES... 2008-04-10 00:13:00 On Bad Company's weapons that is. After receiving hell from gamers everywhere, EA decided to let players have those weapons for free. So, now instead of paying for all 10 weapons, players will have to work their way to get it by ranking up in the game. The first five will be available to both regular and gold editions of the game, however to keep an insentive on Gold Edition, the other five will be available to them right away, the regular release will have to get to the final rank of the game to obtain those weapons.For those who have no idea what this article is about, read my previous article about Bad Company: Bad, Bad Company .

Race Driver: Grid Preview 2008-04-09 20:20:00 Grid is the new racer from the makers of last year's acclaimed title DiRT, Codemasters. The game from what I've read and heard from all the sources, looks beautiful. It will feature full damage models on all 50 playable licenced cars which have detailed interior cameras, that players can look around in with the right analog stick. There will be licenced European circuits and races real locales in North America and Japan, for some drift action. Also, the game keeps on giving with 12-player multiplayer mode.The driving mechanics of the game relies neither on Arcade or Simulator type of gameplay, but rather an approach that both feels fun and means business....just like a Solid Snake's mullet. Which may lead to some serious crashes...but thats a great thing because some parts of the tracks ca Read more:Driver

BURGLAR GOT BEAT TRYING TO STEAL PS3 2008-04-09 19:33:00 CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA. On Monday, a burglar made a huge mistake when he broke into Deirdre Rodriguez's home, who by the way is an ex-boxing champion. So, apperently this dude broke in while she and her son were sleeping, but on his way over the fence Rodriguez wakes up to see him tryingto jump over with their PS3, PSP and bunch of games. Then she runs out tells him she will beat the s#!t out of him if she catches him and the grabs an ice scraper speeding after the guy.Who at thistime jumped over the fence...she leaps over, he gets scared and drops the loot....she catches and hits him with the scraper in the head, then drag him back, makes him pick up the stuff and take them home to wait for the cops. Well, that's one guy missing out on GT: Prologue

Lair Update 2008-04-13 17:14:00 It has been about six months since the release of, back then highly anticipated, now not so hot game which was mostly due to sloppy sixaxis controls. On April 17, those who actually held onto the game probably because they were too ashamed to get it out of their house...afraid someone might notice, will have something to smile about. Because it seems, word travels not to fast to Factor 5 but when it does they take care of it. And they have, by adding analog controls for the dragon flight. Also, with the available download from PSN, players will be getting two new dragons, in addition there will be DualShock 3 support. So....Yay!!

CoD 4: Is paying for Value Pack Fair For Veterans? 2008-04-14 15:57:00 On April 3rd, Infinity Ward released both CoD 4: Game of the Year Edition and the Variety Pack on Xbox 360. The Variety Pack includes 4 new maps to play online against thousands of players. And those who have been playing the CoD 4, since its November, 2007 release like me, are sure to be pleased to the news. But, it wouldn’t be like me, if I didn’t question this one thing that has been bugging me. How come those who purchase the GOTY Edition get to have the Variety Pack for free, whereas those who have worn out their controllers like I have over the past months are required to pay $10 (800 credits on Xbox 360) to enjoy the map pack. I am really sorry to have paid the same amount money months ago, as those who bought the new GOTY, and funded the making of Variety Pack.As a gamer of yea Read more:Value

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit 2008-04-16 18:11:00 Dragon Ball Z is set to spawn yet another fighting game...and it is looking better than ever on PlayStation 3 and xbox 360. Here are some details;First of all, the game takes place between the beginning of the series to the end of Cell Saga...I guess nobody likes Buu. Character selection is said to be rather large although details on that are still unclear.Cinematics are done in in-game rendering which makes for seamless transitions in between.No longer can we put the enemies through rocks and other stuff, as the focus is placed more on pure fighting.Balance is the key...with additional pieces to your character players will be able to enhance their fighting styles.Online gameplay is also available. What makes this game great is; region free gameplay.Audio: Both Original American and Japane Read more:Dragon

Harmonix Recycles...LoL! 2008-04-15 17:23:00 It is no mystery that Harmonix's Rock Band has a lengthy sheet of additional or one might call "bonus" songs available for Ps3 and 360. But,they have been telling people that Wii too would have "Bonus" tracks coming for it, and they never mentioned the names of these "bonus" tracks, which lead people to believe they would be songs available only or first on Wii. Well, folks at Joystiq have revealed the list those tracks in question. Take a look;"Dirty Little Secret" - The All American Rejects"Don't Look Back in Anger" - Oasis"Roam" - The B-52's"Rockaway Beach" - The Ramones"Roxanne" - The Police...Look familiar? Well, it should because those are some of the titles already available on PlayStation Store or Xbox Live as DLCs........................"Rock On, Dudes"............................
Wii Fit Got Priced! 2008-04-15 17:00:00 Although those who have been anxiously been waiting for its release already know, that GameStop has already released the price point of Wii
Fit, Nintendo made it official today; that the game/home gym will sell for $89.99...which is actually $10 less then GS originally posted. Go to GameStop for more details.Also, those of us who are not so happy with getting only the board and the game for $89.99, Nintendo has a suprise for you....but only if you live around Manhattan Island. The Nintendo World Store will give a free shirt to the first 1000 customers to pay $5 pre-order fee, this Friday(4/18) through Sunday(4/20).

Anime based video games. 2008-04-16 20:03:00 Now, that's a phrase Atari loves to hear, Games based on Anime
Series. They have been excellent at it, getting better every title. And year after year cashing in, on the millions of fans that love to get in the shoes of their heros and villians, and year after year they get better. Whether its the graphics, controls, story or the fun factor, they got better...and this year we will be seeing more than one title based on the series we love. One of them by Atari, Dragon Ball Z; a series they will never let go of... and we will see another Naruto game, published by Namco Bandai, which I have to say; "They Both Look Awesome". But my hat's off to Naruto, it feels like watching the Tv show on HDTV, rather than looking at a video
game.You be the judge; Both pictures are in-game engine rendered.
