The nurses of Silent Hill get their groove on

I’m warning you right now that this video is butt old. We’re talking 2007 here, but we’ve never seen or posted about it, and maybe some of you have never seen it, too. That would make it totally new to plenty of people out there. I mean, the views on YouTube are only 398,150, so there’s plenty of people for who it could be brand spanking new. What is it, you ask, after I’ve uselessly attempted to not get “OLD!...

The Team Fortress 2 propaganda contest winners are here

Valve, or a fresh batch of eager interns for Valve, has sifted through upwards of 11,000 entries for theTeam Fortress 2propaganda contest. The top threehave been listedin plain sight for our eyes to gush over, with the promise being that the studio will dish out more prizes to other rad submissions that didn’t quite make the cut. While I can see why “Give ’em the boot” took the top prize, I’m extremely bitter as a devoted Demoman and am obligated to say that the second place entry, “That blue devil,” is my personal favorite of the bunch....

This new Red Orchestra 2 trailer amuses me so

Tripwire Interactive has released a new trailer forThe Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad, and I find it quite amusing. It’s really more fair to call this a commercial with the way it’s presented, but damned if it’s not goofy and amusing. Something about trying to sell this game’s realism in the dorkiest way possible works for me. It seems a lot of you guys were disappointed to see the gamepushed back 2 weeks, but let’s hope that extra time givesRed Orchestra 2a little bit of extra kick....

This video almost proves Blur is a sequel to Ghostbusters

Now I don’t know how indicative these trailers are of what Bizarre Creations’Bluractually looks like with a controller in your hand, but they remind me of the now-we’re-going-really-fast-bro moments inThe Fast and the Furiouscombined with the paranormal fun ofGhostbusters. You may think those cars are engulfed in electricity or even flames, but you’d be wrong. I’m telling you, it’s the ghosts. Plus,GhostbustersNES had realisticdriving simulationin it. This basically is the sequel, guys....

Driver: San Franciscokeeps getting pushed back. It was first pushed back to a spring 2011 launch, but a new release schedule from Ubisoft for Europe says that we’ll see it this September.

Use big mechs to blow s**t up in new Armored Core For Answer on PS3, 360

I’m not a big fan of the series, but as far as I’ve been able to tell, theArmored Coreseries has always been about using big mechs to blow things up. The above screenshot for Ubisoft’s just-announcedArmored Core For Answerfor the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 seems to confirm my suspicions. The From Software developed title with the curious name will be introducing gigantic boss battles for the first time in the series, allowing players to pilot their mechs into gigantic battle stations to destroy them from the inside out....

Valve is going to get better at PS3, promise

I think calling theOrange Box‘s transition to the Playstation 3 an epic failure might be an understatement. One of the must own games on the Xbox 360 became a critical disappointment on the PS3 when the port sucked balls harder than a guy who can suck golf balls through a garden hose. Part of this was probably because they shoved the porting duties to EA, but another part of it is because Valve doesn’t seem too good at working on the PS3....

Valve: Xbox 360 community ‘head and shoulders above PS3’

On the same day that Randy Pitchford says that Valve arechildish fanboys that bash the PS3, here comes Valve’s Chet Faliszek … kind of bashing the PS3. The game writer has stated that Xbox Live’s community is “head and shoulders” above the PlayStation Network, citing it as a reason whyLeft 4 Dead 2isn’t going anywhere near a PS3. “Right now forLeft 4 Dead 2we’re looking at PC and 360 because the community aspects really fit the game — it’s all about playing with your friends,”explains Chet....

Virtual land dispute gets a little too real; it’s like I can touch you!

Second Life, the digital Narnia where the men are men and the women are, more than not likely, also men, continues to blur the line between the virtual and the whatever-the-opposite-of-virtual-is with therecent newsthat one of their all-too-common land disputes has boiled over into the courts of Pennsylvania. Awhile back, Marc Bragg,Second Lifeinhabitant and lawyer, exploited a bug in Linden Labs’ URL system to acquire huge tracts of land. Since (Second Lifedeveloper) Linden Labs believed he had cheated to gain the real estate in the first place, they waved their magic wands and reclaimed the virtual assets....
