Your usual late-night recapper Hamza is out “socializing and sh*t” with the GDC crowd. As such, I was forced to read between the lines of his one-line email — basically, what he’s trying to tell me is that I can do whatever I want for The Daily Hotness. Naturally, our live stream event withDeadly Premonition‘s own Swery 65 has put the game, and things related to the game, on my mind....

As Chad said in his preview ofMachinarium, it’s probably the best game you most likely have never heard of. This game was the savior of E For All for Chad and I (detailed E For All recap coming soon). The game is beautiful, fun, and I just can’t wait for this to come out next year.

[As originally posted onJapanator— come check out our redesign!] Out of all the properties to create an MMORPG from, the beloved Japanese 30-year-old Sanrio character Hello Kitty would probably be at the bottom of the list — I just can’t wrap my head around that. Of course, that didn’t stop Sanrio from going all the way withHello Kitty Online. When I saw that I had a Sanrio press release in my inbox earlier today, I just assumed it was something silly likeanother HK diamond ringor a$2,000 necklace, and so I passed over it....

I did not have good luck with this video. The camera tripod screw-hole got smashed in an incident, I had to record this morning after failing yesterday to do a different rant in ten takes, and to top it all off, the microphone socket broke … but let’s not jump to conclusions and say that was because I keep throwing my mic violently at the end of every video. That’s not the worst of it, though....

The majority of this episode consists of Jim telling stories, most of which you had to have been there for. Still, if you want to learn how Jim offended a fan, got stalked at the airport, and almost set his apartment on fire, this is the podcast for you. Elsewhere, Atheistium gets addicted to an MMO and Wardrox justifies his love ofTransport Tycoon Deluxe. Also, theScrewAttack Gaming Conventionis reflected on and Connor briefly appears to ask for a drink....

After a Holiday hiatus, Destructoid’s narrow-minded and not-all-that-good fifth wheel podcast, The Podcastle, has returned in a blaze of apathy! All the fun of the fair is promised, except with a lot less fun and it’s not very fair. Wardrox, Atheistium and I will be on hand to do the usual bit of shouting and screaming and swearing because it makes us feel grown up. Good times are here at last....

Is there anyone here who finds that light gun rail shooter games can hold their attention for more than a half an hour? This one’s for you. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed thatTime Crisis 4will be indeed coming to the PlayStation 3. The game will offer at least two modes, continuing in theTime Crisistradition of offering hours of varied and action-packed gameplay. “AC” mode appears to be a direct port of the title that was released in the arcades last year and “Mission Mode,” in which players take control of William Rush, a captain in the U....

There is no denying that Steam has an iron grip on the PC digital distribution market with an estimated 70% share. Valve’s platform has been an immense success, but some have expressed concern over a game developer owning something like Steam.
