Vietnam flashbacks, maybe? “Sylvester” is suspected of robbing a Check n’ Go in Bloomington....

Lots of dancing in the Episodes From Liberty City trailer

Here it is, the much anticipated first moving look at the final downloadable episode forGrand Theft Auto IV(yes Rockstar says this is the last one),The Ballad of Gay Tony. There’s a lot of disco dancing in this one and… is that cage fighting? We can’t be certain, but someone is definitely fighting in a cage. At least inside of a fenced off area. We can’t argue with this. The trailer can be found after the jump....

Speaking withBloomberg Television, EA Sports president Peter Moore revealed the move. “We have to makeMaddenmore accessible,” he said. “You’ll see us on Facebook going forward.” No other details were given aboutMaddenon Facebook or its model, but we’re guessing this is just part of a larger plan of EA’s to put their products on the super popular platform in a baby-friendly format....

Middle America finally gets you: WoW dating, CBS style

The footage in that box up there comes from a CBS sitcom calledHow I Met Your Mother. Other than starring an older, less Hippocratic Neil Patrick Harris, it has recently become notable for revealing that Middle America finally understands gamer culture. I hear many of you out there cocking your heads to the side, and making that “baroo” sound, the one that really only comes off as adorable when dogs do it (regardless of how often you readCute Overload), so let me explain....

Mistwalker confirms Blue Dragon DS and a shiny new title

I couldn’t be more thankful for Mistwalker’s existence right now. As a long-time JRPG fan, these last few years with my once beloved Square-Enix have been like watching a much-loved family dog slowly die while a relationship goes sour and a shiny red balloon deflates, – Sorry, I won my own body-weight in metaphors at a raffle last night and I need to offload them – and I’ve thus found my love of the genre turn into a slightly mouldy gray apathy....

A while back Dale North, Destructoid editor and kung fu action star,informed us allthat the idea ofStreet Fighter IVfinding its way onto the Wii was not such a far fetched one at all. His evidence was a quote from the game’s producer and quotes are some of the best evidence around so here are a few more on the subject — and remember, Capcom is set to release nine titles for the Wii by April 2010 and some of them are really big and haven’t been revealed yet....
