Have $7,000 laying around?THEN DO I HAVE A DEAL FOR YOU! Yes, this is a real eBay auction. Yes, there is really 1500 cards covering the car. Yes, the guys that worked on the car were probably drunk off of their asses and have way to much time on their hands. No, it’s not worth the $7,000 they’re asking for. Its good use for the cards, but if I was walking by it and saw a Charizard card, I’d have to jack it (I CAN BLOW UP HELICOPTERS WITH A CHARIZARD CARD)!...
Tecmo Koei has finally launched a buggering flickload of downloadable content forDynasty Warriors 7. Annoyingly, only one bit of content — the long-awaited Japanese voice option — is free. Fortunately, the variouscostume and weapon packsare pretty cheap. Here’s the full load of content that you can pick up if you’re feeling spendy: For obvious reasons, the DLC isn’t on PlayStation Network yet. Koei says it will be available as soon as the PlayStation Store returns....
The Nintendo DS “desert island” titleLost in Bluemight be rescued by the Wii.Siliconerapoints out thatGameflyhas added a Wii version of this title to their listings, and given that the last few Gamefly listings have panned out, we’re going to bet on this one, too. The varied minigames are a good fit for the Wii, so a port seems like a natural. Gamefly gives no other details than a release date of August 30th....
Looking to save some cash while ramping up for next week’sMass Effect 2release? If you haven’t explored beyond yourMass Effectdisc, here’s your chance. The add-ons “Bring Down the Sky” and “Pinnacle Station” are available for 240 MS Points a piece this week only. That’s a savings of 160 MS Points a piece; in my mind, translates to one Rock Band song (or $2.00). Also on sale is Electronic Arts’Battleshipfor Xbox LIVE Arcade; that’ll run you 400 MS Points....
Max starts off the talk with a bit of basic overview ofStar Wars: The Old Republicwith James Ohlen. Everything considered,The Old Republicis apparently bigger than every past BioWare game put together. That ismassive. James even goes on to say that there is more voice over inThe Old Republicthan every game that’s come out this year combined. Okay, now that’s just overkill. But anyway, Max got some info on Hut Ball, your own starship, space battles, the huge library of vehicles in the game and tons of other info you won’t want to miss....
This year is just ridiculous. There have been so many huge titles released in 2011 already and there are still many more on the way. I have a hard time trying to keep track of all them so you’ll forgive me if I haven’t really given much thought to the games of 2012. That was until last week, when I got to seeMax Payne 3in action. As a fan of the series, I can easily say that fans have nothing to worry about when it comes to the next chapter in Max’s troubled life....
It seems like every couple of weeks we get some news chuncklet that fuels theHalo 3anticipation fire. Well today, that news item is the pricing for the Standard, Limited, and Legendary editions of the game: Limited Edition — $69.99 Standard Edition — $59.99 If you happen to be one of the cheap bastards that buy the Standard Edition, prepare to be the laughing stock of 13-year-olds everywhere.
When I saw this announcement, I had to do a double-take. It never occurred to me that a PSP Minis title would ever see the light of day on an Xbox platform. And why should it? But, sure enough, you can getMonsters (probably) Stole My Princess!on Xbox Live Indie Games right now for 240 MS Points. This is my favorite of the PSP Minis. It has a great sense of humor and addictive gameplay....
HA!Asura’s Wrathnever fails to amaze me. Everything that Capcom shows is more crazy than the last. This new trailer from gamescom is just silly with epic. It features the longest swordever. Asura goes from relaxing in a hot bath (well, not really relaxing) to fighting on the moon. And while I’d like to root for the hero, he is getting his ass kicked. And in keeping with the style of the game, the trailer ends on a cliffhanger....
To date, most of the stuff to come out of Atlus for upcoming PS3 and Xbox 360 gameCatherinehas been horny and weird. Don’t get me wrong — I love that. But this new trailer, released in Japan today, is serious and creepy. It’s like they’re saying, yes, we’re horny, but we’re this stuff too. They want to let you know that you’re getting the full f*cked up experience for your 7,329 yen....
Fronsh gaming siteJeux-Franceis waving around some new videos featuringmoregameplay footage fromThe Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, the Nintendo DS game whose empty case has beentauntingyou from the upcoming releases shelf at your local retailer for the past six months or more. Showing off some more boating, puzzle solving and boomeranging, (shut up, it’s a word,) each little nugget is reminiscent of bothWind Wakerand traditional 2-DZeldagames likeA Link to the Past.You can also check out the videos on the game’sofficial web site, though that would completely negate my having gone through the trouble of putting them here for you....
