From An Actual Bond Villain Henchman Being in the job of henching for someone who will be taking over the globe soon via our orbital space stations (No I'm not kidding), I felt it only right to check out The Agency. Partly to see how this new MMO for the PS3 and PC will handle. Partly to see what SOE is going to be training people to do so we can be prepared for it. Also partly because I just had to turn around after getting hands on with DC Universe Online. I'm a gamer and we're lazy. Read More...

Batman: Arkham Asylum One game that seemed to be at every one of the big companies booths, sans Nintendo, was Batman Arkham Asylum. It even had it's own booth show casing it as well as an area in the Warner Brothers booth, with leather restraint chair for those who got to bonkers while checking out this game. You might be laughing, but we had to restrain Church at one point. Well he kind of just hopped into it for some reason, but this is not the point of this article. Read More...

Standing outside of the famous Abbey Road, I thought about all the artists that have passed through into stardom. The doors opened to a vintage theater seating, a stage and curtain and giant LCD monitors. The curtains drew revealing Studio 2 made famous by the Beatles. The instruments were cardboard cutouts and we were still in the Los Angeles Convention Center, but as Harmonix began to demonstrate their newest Rock Band offering, it was difficult to not be swept up in the melodies and harmonies of a band as influential as The Beatles. Releasing on September 9th, the disc will have 45 tracks with plenty of DLC to follow, beginning with "All You Need is Love" (time-released exclusive) on Xbox 360 and the entire album, Abbey Road. All proceeds from purchases of All You Need is Love will benefit Doctors without Borders. Read More...

The Last Guy gets Trophies and more Hopefully it hasn't been too long for you to have forgotten about that cool little game on the PSN where you run around saving people from a "zombie" apocalypse in [insert big real city here]. If it has, then I say it is time for you to dust off the good ol' downloaded game and give it another looksie today. Also to keep it on the mind for at least the next month or so after taking another looksie. If you haven't even tried it, then play the demo and then most likely shell out the $10 for the full version. Read More...

New-ish Facts About SOE's The Agency Do you remember a while back, like last year when The Agency was suppose to come out to market? All there was for the game was a short video clip showing off some of the antics and very little game play for Sony's new MMO. Then things just kind of went dead as far as anything new coming out about the game. Well other than the fact that it kept getting pushed back and no solid release window in sight. I'm guessing that all rings a bell now. Read More...

This will apparently give access to a few things that will hit the internet hours after it is placed in there. Read More...

The Coffee Corner:The Coffee Corner is a weekly review of the last week in gaming, chock full of opinions, sexual innuendos, and hot ladies... well maybe not, but still, it's pretty cool. It's not meant to give an ultra in-depth look at the news, but rather a glance and a quick quip.This past week saw two fairly large releases: X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the video game, and the movie. While neither were recieved by amazing reception from critics, both managed to sell fairly well. While video games based off movies haven't been regarded as the best games (Read: Jumper, Tale of Despereaux, Any Brash Game, etc). Read More...
