Bungie has released a video called Carnage Carnival which features some of the team discussing the beta release of the game. A number of things are clear. First off; this is your typical “we’re very proud of our product” presentation. Bungie has every reason to be very proud of Halo and Halo Reach looks to […]

Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood
Ubisoft have been fairly upfront that a key tactic for this year is to get Assassin’s Creed 3 ready, stocked and sold as quickly as possible. Thanks to some careful domain watching we can now guess with a strong degree of confidence that the game will be called Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. How come? Ubisoft have […]
What’s in the Halo Reach Legendary Pack?
Game.co.uk are now accepting pre-orders for the Halo Reach Legendary Pack. This gives us a chance to see what’s inside it. It’s also worth noting that there are three versions of the game; standard, limited and legendary. The pre-order at Game.co.uk for the Legendary Pack costs nearly £100 and (due to weight) doesn’t ship outside […]
Xbox 360 is 5 times more likely to break than the PS3 (42 more likely than the Wii)
No Fuss Reviews has the results of over 500,000 responces to a gaming poll that suggests that the Xbox is far more likely to break than the Wii and the PlayStation 3. There is a catch, though. The survey is de-duplicated but it takes no account of marketshare. If more Xbox users responded to the […]
First gameplay footage of Pokemon Black and White
The 5th instalment of the Pokemon series is on its way. As you might expect it’ll be published first in Japan, probably this Autumn, and for the Nintendo DS. The TV show Pokemon Sunday showed a sneak peek of some of the game footage. We can see a cityscape but also that the camera sort […]

A roundup of Crysis 2 trailers
Here’s a game that looks as if it’ll make your PC weep – but that it’ll be worth every tear. More info is available at inCrysis but for the gorgeous eye candy simply lap up the following videos. The song in this Crysis ad is “New York, New York” by Polly Scattergood. Yeah; it’s a […]
Everyone’s doing it: Modern Warefare 2 ad falls flat
I have a conflict of interest. I don’t work in TV advertising. I work in digital marketing. The company that is responsible for the latest Call of Duty ad decided some old bloke sitting on a rotting chair telling me all the ways people “are doing it” would inspire me to buy the Modern Warefare […]
Japanese gamers squabble over Xenoblade quality
Xenoblade is the next game in the Xenosaga. Monolith Soft have taken their time over this game and so it comes as little surprise that RPG fans are paying the teaser trailer so much attention. The first thing to keep in mind that this RPG is for the Wii. The second thing to keep in […]
Promotional Alan Wake video
I’m curious about Alan Wake because it reminds me of an old game called Nox. Nox was a simple fantasy RPG. Alan Wake isn’t. What was superb about Nox was its use of light. Light came from glowing crystals. Magic power came from the same crystals. If you wanted to replenish your magic power you […]
