Murmurs Of Duke Nukem Forever At PAX 2010
Duke Nukem Forever is dead right? Wrong. The game appears to be alive and kicking under new developer Gearbox Software. It was initially rumoured that Borderlands developer Gearbox was working on Duke Nukem Forever but the developer has now not only confirmed the rumour but also claims that the game is finished and ready to [...]

Sony Conquers PSJailbreak…In Australia
Yes, Sony has drawn first blood in its battle against PSJailbreak. An Australian court has permanently banned retailers from selling the Jailbreak device after a temporary injunction expired earlier this week. Australian retailers OzModChips, ModSupplier, and Quantronics have all removed the product from shelves but this wasn’t enough for the international electronics giant, Sony has [...]
Portal Bookends Are Real And Cool
Bookends or game-ends, depending on what you use them for, are generally pretty useful but they’re hardly ever cool. These Portal ones are though.
Bloody Good Time Has Flamethrower Toting Showgirls
Bloody Good Time is a game as bizarre as the title may imply. Developed by Outerlight (The Ship) and published by Ubisoft, this game has been made using Valve’s Source Engine (TF2) and is probably the craziest FPS I’ve ever seen. Like TF2, it’s a full-on multiplayer shooter but with some insane twists. It features [...]
LA Noire Gets A Release Date, Is It Any Closer To Releasing?
Those of you who are unfamiliar with Rockstar’s 1940′s noire era detective game can’t be blamed since there has been virtually no news in the game’s 5 year development. A little history, the game was originally a PS3 exclusive but later became multiplatform and developer Team Bondi has had trouble getting the game going since [...]
Arkahm City Is 5x Bigger Than Arkham Asylum
Rocksteady has revealed that the environment in Batman: Arkham City is around 4-5 times bigger than in Arkham Asylum which makes it around the same size as a city in Assassins Creed II. In a massive 14 page feature in this month’s OPM, Rocksteady boss Sefton Hill revealed some little but crucial details about the [...]
Left 4 Dead Was Supposed To Be A “Flying Fairy” RPG!
Valve’s zombie slaying co-op FPS is awesome and is literally one of the best the Xbox 360 has to offer but if Left 4 Dead didn’t turn out the way it eventually did, what if it was originally supposed to be an entirely different sort of game altogether? Some very interesting details surfaced in a [...]
What Does Activision Think About Medal Of Honor?
Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops will be releasing around the same time as rival EA’s Medal of Honor so it would be logical to assume that each publisher would consider the other’s game to be a competitor and threat. Ea has already said as much but Activision seems to be a bit cockier about [...]
Black Ops Kill Streak Rewards To Light Your Fire
Yesterday, Treyarch gave the media the chance to experience CoD: Black Ops’ multiplayer first-hand. As always, killstreak rewards are a big part of the competitive multiplayer component and while some may be familiar, there are several very interesting and new ones. Here’s the full list: 3 Kills – Spy Plane 3 Kills – RC-XD (RC [...]
Master Chief In Halo Kitty!
Take a creative mind such as that of designer Joseph Senior, throw in some pop culture icons with a dash of Hello Kitty, shake well and this is what you get, some of the coolest figurines I’ve ever seen. Let’s hope this becomes a full-on line of figurines. For those of you who are wondering, [...]
Treyarch Killed The Black Ops Zombies
It was recently hinted at in a retailer’s listing for Call of Duty: Black Ops Hardened Edition that the highly popular zombie mode from CoD: World at War would be making a return in Treyarch’s latest addition to the Call of Duty series. Sadly however, Treyarch effectively shot down any hopes of the Zombie mode [...]
LittleBigPlanet 2 Is The New LEGO
As a little kid, I loved LEGO. There was so much that you could do with it and the only thing holding you back was your own imagination. It really did open our minds and expand our imaginations. Hell, I still have a toy-box full of the stuff just for the nostalgia of it and [...]
Games In My Pants… (True Story)
What’s sadder than a bunch of grown men caught stealing from a toy store? A bunch of grown men caught stealing from a toy store with the goods stuffed down their pants. Four men have been arrested after a game-stealing conquest along the East Cost of the US. Rodney McCreary, Gilberto Matos, Derrella Winfrey and [...]
PSJailbreak Gets Beaten At Its Own Game
The PSJailbreak is the current front-runner and pioneer in hacking the PS3 but it may just have some competition. Enter PSGroove, a free open-source alternative. Firstly, the name sounds far less dodgy but wait there’s more. PSGroove may not allow for the playing of pirated games (although you can backup games on your HDD) but [...]
3D Blu-Ray Update Hits PS3 In October
Sony has confirmed that come October, the Ps3 will receive a firmware update rendering it capable of 3D Blu-ray movie playback. This is a whole month later than the original date for the firmware update but you won’t miss much in that time because there really isn’t anything on Blu-ray in 3D yet and come [...]
Are You God Enough To Fill These Shoes?
Behold, the God of War sneakers. Like those that came before it, it is based on the Nike Air Force 1 but unlike the others, cannot be worn by any mere mortal. These sneakers feature a full Kratos/God of War design along the side with chain laces ending in tiny Blades of Olympus. The footwear [...]
Shattered Dimensions Gets Deadpool, But Is Stuck With Nolan North Too
Those of you who have watched X-Men Origins: Wolverine will have a decent idea of who Deadpool is and what he is capable of. For those who don’t, listen up. Deadpool, also known as Wade Wilson, is a mercenary and essentially supposed to be the perfect soldier with the healing abilities of Wolverine, crazy strength [...]
Portal 2 Multiplayer Is A Lie
One of the big new additions to Portal 2 was supposed to be a new multiplayer component that would take puzzle-solving to the next level but has now been removed from the game because it instead swapped puzzle-solving out for utter ”chaos”. It was intended to feature both competitive and co-op multiplayer but according to [...]
The Reason For Why The PS3 Controller Sucks The Way It Does
Believe it or not, a lot of time actually went into designing the PS3 controller that we’re all familiar with today. We’ve had largely the same controller for PlayStation consoles since the release of the very first one nearly way back in the late 90′s and that’s fine, we’re pretty used to it by now. [...]
