Going Crazy Over Points At Nintendo
by Brian Bentley [ Thursday, 9th of April 2009 - 01:08 AM ]
This week Nintendo released the DSi and its accompanying application download service, the DSi Shop.  Akin to the Wii Shop Channel, consumers will be able to purchase and download software directly to their DSi systems with the price of the software ranging from free to 800+ DSi Points (800 points is roughly $8).  The first round of “DSi Ware” includes an opera-powered web browser (free) and 5 games with WarioWare: Stacked! (500 DSi Points) as the noticeable standout of the bunch. Read More…
 
Play How You Want To Play
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 8th of April 2009 - 10:22 PM ]
More Details On The Secret World Wow that didn't take long for Funcom at all. Just yesterday I brought you a debut trailer for this new MMO stating that there wasn't much else stated about this game outside of the teaser trailer. That and a website that just pretty much showed off said video, and a couple of grayed out images, and a weird countdown in a weird font. But that changes just a bit today. Just released are those images in a color and clearer shot as well as a small overview/fact sheet for the game. Read More…

Talk About Phoning In A Kill
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 8th of April 2009 - 06:15 PM ]
KONAMI ANNOUNCES SILENT SCOPE COMING SOON TO APPLE APP STORE Just one more step towards trailing all humans how to efficiently kill with a sniper scope. Or at least to kill using an interface that could control a sniper scope. Yea, think like in the movie The Jackal. Aim and kill with just the touch of your finger to the iPhone screen. Ok, maybe not that dramatic, but you get the idea, I hope. But in all seriousness, Konami today announced that they are working on a full on version of Silent Scope for the iPhone. Read More…
 
Unplugging The Amplitude
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 8th of April 2009 - 05:15 PM ]
Rock Band Unplugged Does anyone else remember a little game Harmonix made oh so long ago called Amplitude? Where you flew a space craft around on different tracks and shot down "notes" to keep the beat, vocals, etc. going on a song playing in the background. You could upgrade and change your avatars and ships based on your scores. Also had some kick ass music that has yet to be fully seen on any of Harmonix's current projects. Ring a bell? Read More…

Dark Days Are Coming
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 7th of April 2009 - 08:34 PM ]
The Secret World Trailer Some of you may have forgotten all about this game. Hell it was announced a little under 2 years ago. Thrown to the side to make way for other Funcom products, at least as it comes to the marketing stand point of things. Like I said, heard nothing about this MMO for some time. Well that is until just recently. A teaser video has been sprouting up for this game. Read More…
 
Fists Of Iron
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 6th of April 2009 - 06:07 PM ]
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 For some reason Marvel would rather slowly tease us all with a slow release of playable characters for the next ultimate alliance game. Very slowly it would seem. Almost one a month from the count that I have seen. At least outside of the original outburst of characters that were assumed to carry over from the first game. But with around 24 playable characters, going at one a month won't be anywhere on time for their Autumn release schedule. Unless they plan to hammer us at E3 with a bunch of the others. Read More…
 
French Please?
by Binh Nguyen [ Saturday, 4th of April 2009 - 10:43 AM ]
    So how would you like to play a game that speaks only French? Imagine seeing “Qu’est-ce que tu fais ici, vous stupid idiot!” (What the hell are you doing here you stupid idiot, and you thought reading this you wouldn’t learn anything) Well in Quebec you can. You heard that right, according to the Toronto Star, as of April 1st (and no this is not April fool joke…) Quebec passed a law to prohibit sales of new English-only video in Quebec if a French version is available. Because of this law retailers and gamers will have to wait for new releases to come to Quebec due to developers having to spend extra time to make the games French only. “I’m afraid it’s going to cost me my business” said Ronnie Rondeau, co-owner of Game Buzz around Montreal, “If it really was going to make a difference, I’d be for it, but only a small number of people want to play in French.

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 2nd of April 2009 - 09:21 PM ]
Will Saw be Konami's second great horror franchise? (Plus, first screenshots) This title has been on and off just as much as Ross Perot was in the 1992 ellection. In fact there have been a total of three articles on this site talking about where it is in the process and who has been working on it. Well for you fans of the films and maybe fans of the game, I have some good news for you. Not to mention screens shots to add as well. Konami has picked up the rights to this publish this game, which is actually being designed and developed by Zombie Studios. Read More…

Bragging OnLive With Clips
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 31st of March 2009 - 05:47 PM ]
Overview Of OnLive If you have been paying attention to anything that has come out of this year's GDC, or at least following the Total Meltdown Podcast, you most likely heard some bit on the new service called OnLive that is being worked on. Some say it is the future of digital downloading, and others are skeptical about this new system that has been proposed. Which of course is why I went out to ask a few things from the people behind this service to get a few answers and information to give out. For those of you who have no clue what OnLive is, here is a an overview of it and in simpler terms for everyone. Read More…
 
Start Terrorizing The Streets
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 31st of March 2009 - 03:38 PM ]
Many Views Of inFAMOUS While not as preachy as the top ten that was passed around online yesterday, there are a load of new views and videos that just popped up for the PS3's inFAMOUS. Of course all just to get you looking closer to the game as it is releasing in the next few months. Which means that in the near future we can most likely see a nice PR battle between the inFAMOUS and [Prototype] camps to try and get your money over the other. But I digress yet again. Below there are a plethora of images and video showing quite a bit of what we can all expect to see and experience in the game. Read More…

PWN Everyone & Everything
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 30th of March 2009 - 10:37 PM ]
Top 10 Reasons To Get [Prototype] If for some reason you didn't want to even give Radical Entertainment's game Prototype a good college try, no clue why one wouldn't really, then here is a list of the top ten reasons for you to consider. Or at least look at and think, holy hells why did I even not think to give it a play through. But in any instance, it may well change you mind or get you a little more excited for this game come this June. Oh, some of the reasons by the way, Projectile Dysfunction, Brutal Devastator Attacks, Jacking Military Vehicles, and Consume and Become Anyone. Read More…
