Here in the UK high street retailer and internet come-back-kid has managed to grab the exclusive for Heavy Rain Special Edition. The Special Edition pack includes a XMB theme, a copy of the complete Heavy Rain soundtrack and the access to The Taxidermist from the Heavy Rain Chronicles. Special Editions are becoming big news in […]
Jumping loop bug in Final Fantasy XIII
There are so many mixed signals about Final Fantasy XIII. My head’s starting to spin. First off the game got glowing reviews – perfect, near perfect. Then game players start to grumble. Turns out that the game, although large and long, is awfully linear. You get lots of cut scenes and lots to look at […]
Buy a PS3 and trash everything else
A pretty funky ad from Venezuela for the PlayStation 3 here. It gets your attention by trashing a lot of expensive looking stuff. Lots of broken glass. There’s a giant slingshot – in fact I think the ad is called “slingshot”. Oh, and there’s a PS3 too!
LittleBigPlanet does Pirates of the Caribbean
It isn’t just that this might be one of the cutest expansions of LittleBigPlanet yet that The Pirates of the Caribbean pack deserves a post. Although it’s certainly very cute; especially our Sack Boy Davy Jones. As it happens this expansion includes a new building material – water! My first thought was “cool!” and then […]
Ar Tonelico 3 trailer complete with funky music
It takes a while for this Ar Tonelico 3 trailer to get going – although it’s well worth the wait when it does – however the impressive music kicks in straight away so make sure you’ve speakers on. In many ways I get Final Fantasy vibes from this game but I’d accept its pretty hard […]
Dragon Ball: Raging Blast looks surprisingly good
Don’t hate me for saying this… but the forthcoming Dragon Ball: Raging Blast looks surprisingly good. Wait! Let me defend that comment. What this trailer shows is a beat ’em up that makes use of a wide battle area; a city, a plane, etc. The combatants fly around, smash into things and cover far more […]
Bayonetta looks cool
We’re going to have to wait until 2010 until Bayonetta‘s out (unless you’re in Japan) but it looks cooler and cooler with each teaser. The cosplay wonders were good, the screenshots better and now we can sample the ad campaign in Japan. The mighty Kotaku are rumouring that Japanese fan mag Famitsu will award Bayonetta […]
Fighting the Metal Queen in Brutal Legend
Brutal Legend is going onto my Christmas wishlist. I’m just not sure whether I want the PS3 or the Xbox 360 version. I guess, if there is a tie, then the Xbox 360 wins due to Xbox Live and a better gamer point system. Do you agree? Anyway; here’s a great video tutorial from Geoff […]

UK Game retail giant, Game, has scored a major exclusive. They’ll be the only retailer with access to the collector’s edition of the RPG Dragon Age: Origins. The deal covers the PC edition, the PS3 and the Xbox 360 editions too. The collector’s edition will include extra content – Bergens Honour, Grimoire of the Frozen […]
Star Ocean (4): The Last Hope coming to the PS3
Star Ocean had been an Xbox exclusive in Japan but Square Enix has now agreed to do a dual language release of the RPG for PlayStation. If Microsoft didn’t know from day one that this was going to happen then I can only imagine they’ll be raging at Square Enix. The Xbox has been making […]
