| | Anything you can do we can do better | Gavin Mannion - July 30th, 2008 | So yesterday I posted that the first ever community created game (Pong) was now available on the PS3. Well Microsoft has hit back in a big way. While the PS3 version was a dodgy 2D black and white version the Microsoft one is a 3D sphere with multi-touch functionality. Okay that’s really not very fair since the PS3 one was a huge breakthrough in community gaming done by a bunch of guys in their garage. While the Microsoft one was created by a crack team of geniuses with ... [»] |

Take Two has announced that it has now received some more suitors. Seeking Alpha’s Stephen Frankola thinks one of these new suitors it Microsoft and goes on to explain why.. you can click through the link for the full information but it boils down to ... [»] |

| Gametrailers Best of E3 | Gavin Mannion - July 29th, 2008 | Finally I tracked down the GameTrailers best of show video for E3 this year. Unfortunately for discussion purposes they chose a cross platform game as their best of show but at least the PS3 and 360 both had good showings. So now according to most of the major websites we don’t have a clear winner from E3 this year. But one thing that has become apparent is that Killzone 2 isn’t going to be the killer title they promised it would be. ... [»] |

| Dead Rising – 360 vs Wii | Gavin Mannion - July 29th, 2008 | So you have often seen the comparisons between the PS3 and 360 screenshots and often we cannot really tell the difference. You have also heard about the Wii not having as much power as the other two but what exactly is the difference? Well the top screenshot is from the 360 version while the one below is from ... [»] |

| MK vs DC: New details and features | Nick de Bruyne - July 29th, 2008 | I used to be a huge Mortal Kombat fan but I eventually lost interest in the series somewhere around the time it became 3D. This latest video however, is looking really good and also answers a few questions, specifically ones like "why does teh_superman not pwn evaary1 with his leet skillz?".
When I first heard of this whole game/comic crossover idea, I thought "Oh my, have the really become that desperate". After ... [»] |

| Fat Princess upsetting the feminists | Gavin Mannion - July 29th, 2008 | You knew it was going to happen but I am a bit suprised at how quick it happened. Apparently the fat feminists out there are not so happy with the originally titled Fat Princess. According to them it is degrading to women and compounds the stereotypes of fat people. They even go on to ask why the developers didn’t ... [»] |

| MGS 4 Already a budget title? | Gavin Mannion - July 29th, 2008 | Now I know MGS4 was never expected to be a mass market success but hitting the bargain bins a mere month and a half after release is another thing entirely. Kotaku is reporting that Sofmap is now selling MGS4 for 3980 Yen or US$37… or just under R300 My personal opinion ... [»] |

| Need for Speed: Undercover – First Trailer | Nick de Bruyne - July 28th, 2008 | Look what we have here! It seems that the first Need for Speed: Undercover has been leaked and Kotaku claims that it is 100% legitimate.Conceptually, the game is actually looking really promising. I like the fact that it seems as if EA have moved to FMV sequences with real actors as if it was a movie so it actually looks as though the game is going to have a campaign that revolves around a proper storyline this time around.As far as I can tell, it looks as though the game might ...
