Surprise, Surprise!!


A recent survey has shown that only 2% of brits actually want 3DTV. WOW! It's like people actually don't want to have to wear glasses when they watch their TV. People rejoice! Common sense won today's battle; but beware as it is far from winning the 3D war.

Two Steps From Hell & One Closer to Halloween...

With Halloween only a mere 2 months away, I though right about now should be the time where I start deciding what to wear when I go out to terrorise the neighborhood. Well, with my favorite game of the year Mass Effect sprang to mind and then I saw these pictures and realised it must be fate! Now I only have to find my squad. Might start at Omega...

Call of Duty: BO* multiplayer Teaser



New Call of Duty: Modern Black Ops footage has been released showing it's revolutionary multiplayer mode. I'm sure many people will go out this autumn (fall, for our friends across the pond) and purchase this game purely based on the words 'Call of Duty' on the box. But I doubt many have seen the footage and so they will not of thought "hang on, this looks a bit like that Modern Warfare 2". Yes yes, Treyarch will say "Look! There's a crossbow and an explosive R/C car!" but please Activision, stop just copying game, after game, after game. Get one studio to make the game and make them focus on quality, not time and quality. Do what EA is doing with multiplayer and make it virtually unplayable without a one off payment. Oh, and throw some holy water over Kotick. Thanks

Also, just noticed the little video at the end, this makes me even more sad since everyone will think CoD introduced this feature! GRRRR GETTING ANGRY NOW!!!

Google Street Zombie: Destroying the Zombie Horde in Your Neighborhood


With all the newspapers in the world absolutely furious at the prospect of people being able to see the outside of your house on the internet, Google needed to find more practical application for it's Street View system than assisting route finding and navigation. Therefore, they have partnered with Virgin Trains (A bit of a weird combination I know) to introduce Don't Go Zombie! It is a flash game where you have to fight zombies with a ticket gun(?) and the background can be anywhere found using Google Street View. Cool idea for a game, but an even better idea for planning what to do in a zombie attack!!! You may mock now, but when you are all staggering about trying to eat people I will be sitting happily in my fortress playing Halo Reach and watching the Friends box set on a loop.

BRAAAAAAAINS here

Batman: Arkham City



Although not it seems (at the moment anyway) that the sequel to last year's Batman: Arkham Asylum is not a free roaming adventure of Gotham City, it doesn't stop me from getting uber excited for beating Catwoman and Two Face in the face(s)!

Halo: Retro Evolved



With the prequel to Halo: CE coming out next month, someone felt we needed a sort of hardware prequel; like a reverse remake if you catch my drift. A bit like what's happening with Goldeneye on the Wii. Yes there is no vehicles or music apart from the menu, but it is an awesome little time-waster and is well worth playing! Link(it's actually Master Chief) here: Halo 2600

THE PIRATES LIFES IS TEH LIFES 4 ME, LOLOLOL AND A BOTTEL OF WIN

Rule 1: Never talk about PC Gamerz



Who says video games are pointless!?? As you can see in the video above, these chubby chaps didn't put up the best of fights but it shows not to mess with us 'gamerz'!! Looks like those hours on UFC sort of payed off.
