Come Give Resident Evil 5 A Shot It's not every day that a game company asks you to give more than just your money for a game. Even though it may seem like you have to, at least to get some of the crazy special editions or bundles for the game. Resident Evil 5 not being an exception. At least if you want to get the cool collector's edition with all the goodies. But in this case, you won't be giving your blood for the game, but for just the fact of donating. All under the fun guise of being for the game. Read More...

CAPCOM® ANNOUNCES LOST PLANET® 2 As I mentioned back when they did their Sneak Attack, I would keep you up to date on the Lost Planet 2 information.

All with a fancy press release and 15 new screen shots of the game. I thought it was going to be much later in the day for this, but I'll take the pleasant surprise. Read More...

It was almost two months ago that Capcom announced exclusive Xbox 360 and PlayStaion 3 console bundles exclusive to Japan. It seems as though half that good news is coming to North America as Capcom and Microsoft are celebrating the much anticipated debut of the Resident Evil series on the Xbox 360 with the release of a red, limited edition bundle. As with the stand-alone game, the console bundle will arrive on store shelves on Friday, March 13. The pack will feature a copy of Resident Evil 5, red Xbox 360 Elite with 120 GB Hard Drive, matching limited edition red wireless controller, a black Xbox 360 headset, and exclusive premium Resident Evil 5 theme downloaded over Xbox Live.

New Screens For Star Trek Online There has been some more screen shots released into the wild for our consumption for Cryptic's new game Star Trek Online. Nothing really all that ground breaking except for the fact that there are a few more shots that are not of the space scenes of the game. Something that has been kind of rare from the past shots that have snuck out into the wild. I am still kind of curious on exactly how this game will actually look during play. These shots, much like the ones in the past, look a lot like concept shots, but then you can also see how they could be shots from the game. Read More...

Lost Planet 2 Announced Yes, in my opinion it was a sneak attack by Resident Evil 5 producer Jun Takeuchi. Don't believe me, then check out the small blurb sent out from Capcom in their most recent press release about Street Fighter IV selling 2 million + copies. That and it was kind of on the sly released onto XBox Live. Secondly, a hot tip: fire up your Xbox to get a sneak preview of a brand new Capcom title. In an industry-first, we've announced a new game through the Xbox LIVE service, complete with an introductory video from the producer and director. Read More...

Like most fangirls, Cosplay is a typical part of my geek life. Being a Valve fanatic, I gather every year at A-KON to cosplay with my fellow valve fangirls and fanboys for a weekend of fun, frags and photos. Last year I encountered many Chell cosplayers, but none of which had a gun from the game as realistic and inspiring as this. Emily, as I assume that's her name, struck big when her boyfriend commissioned her a Portal Gun for her Chell costume. Like many other's have already stated - Marry this boy!!! Read More...

A while back, I posted about a Gears of War 2 patch coming later this month. Now it turns out that coming along with the patch are seven new achievements. No official release date has been said, but should go live once the patch is released. All seven equal up to 175 points, mostly focused on the flashback and combustible maps. Go here to see more about it. Read More...

Dark Templar Vote So it looks like Blizzard wants to know what the players of their Star Craft Franchise want as a character in their new IP, Star Craft II. It seems that they want the actual community to choose their favorite since the game is for them and it should be tailored toward them. Not a bad idea from my stand point. But as of right now you can go onto the below link and vote which character you want to have in the new game, when it finally comes out. Your choices are: Lenassa Tribe:This unit carries a single warp blade, and a cloth shroud covers its face. Read More...

Bioshock can 'do a Star Wars', says 2K boss So one thing I hate to see in a franchise, be it a Movie, TV, or Video Game one, is when they make such a huge hit with the first one that they turn around and churn out loads of crap to try and make a quick buck while the franchise is still in the height of popularity. I won't disagree that it isn't a bad way to make money. People will shell out for a sequel thinking it will be as good as the first. Read More...
