Mass Effect 2’s Mordin sings Gilbert and Sullivan
Mordin is one of my favourite characters from Mass Effect 2. He’s funny and therefore worth keeping alive. If you get to know Mordin well enough he makes mention that he’s even sung. Continue that chain of chat and he’ll give you a quick song. A highlight of the game. Mordin’s song is inspired by […]
Stormtroopers and Monty Python come to PlayStation Home
The European servers of PlayStation are in for a geeky treat. First up PlayStation will be rolling out their new deal with LucasArts and letting Stormtroopers into Home. There are three new costumes: The Stormtrooper for PlayStation Home The Clone Trooper for PlayStation Home The Imperial Officer for PlayStation Home I reckon the Clone Trooper […]

Monster Hunter Tri (MH3) hits European Wii’s on April 23rd. It’s the first time the franchise has made it to the popular household console.

GDC has created some more teasers. Kotaku has some screenshots (sampled below). We were also told that British comedy hero John Cleese will play […]
Sadie O’Down, Insignificant Other, versus Kratos, God of War 3
I don’t always think Sony gets it right with their TV advertising. This ad for God of War 3, however, is fantastic. Actually; it might not be Sony behind this one – could be the developers Santa Monica Studio – but my hunch is that it’s Sony. Why is the ad any good? Because it’s […]
Not happy with how Final Fantasy XIII is being advertised in the UK? Blame OMD
Square Enix UK have engaged in a bit of agency shuffling prior to the promotion of Final Fantasy XIII this year. The account is worth 6 figures – that’s a lot of money to the agency involved. Square Enix had been with MJ Media but Eidos, which Square Enix bought last year, had been using […]

Sony have bought Media Molecule. Media Molecule are the dev house behind PlayStation’s run away online success LittleBigPlanet. You only need to look at how heavily LittleBigPlanet features – still – in PlayStation’s advertising to see how important a game this is for them. Over at the PlayStation EU blog we get the official lowdown […]
