Details on Left 4 Dead DLC content revealed, mostly

According to Jouwgames, the new Left 4 Dead DLC will have versus mode available for the campaigns Dead Air and Death Toll.My Dutch is really rusty, so wait for an English site to confirm this (Ed: didn't we just do that?). We should expect some extras with the DLC, but in true Valve fashion those aren't being revealed just yet. Perhaps they will add ... [»]

Resident Evil Console Comparison Blow Out

Someone over at The-Horror.com has gone above and beyond the call of duty and has posted a hugely in depth comparison between the demo’s of Resident Evil on the 360 and PS3. With tons of screenshots, cut scenes and discussions around the differences it is possibly the best comparison I have found between a single game yet. Pity ... [»]

Wired’s Top 10 Most Disappointing Games is disappointing in itself, and wrong

 - December 30th, 2008
On the 12th of December, Wired posted their top 10 most disappointing games list. This list included Age of Conan, Spore (which deserves every bit of hate thrown at it) and Prince of Persia. Some of the titles listed are understandably disappointing, like Age of Conan which from what I have heard had a lot of problems for a 'WoW-killer'.Also, some games people just didn't quite get like Mirror's Edge (look out for that full review in the New Year) which has it's polarising mechanics, like the combat. Prince of Persia is another wonderful example of people missing the ... [»]

Details on Left 4 Dead DLC forthcoming

 - December 30th, 2008
Chet Faliszek, writer at Valve, told Kotaku on their podcast (via 1UP) that details on the Left 4 Dead DLC should be coming soon. However, as we all know from previous Valve 'coming soons' (Half Life 2, I'm looking at you) this could still take awhile. However, according to 1UP, the speculation currently running wild expects the PC and Xbox360 DLC to hit simultaneously. Very much unlike the situation with Team ... [»]

Killzone 2 cover revealed, underwhelming.

 - December 30th, 2008
The Playstation Blog has just revealed the box art of the highly anticipated Killzone 2 for Playstation 3. Judging for the torrent of comments saying how great it is, I assume people really like it.I think its really, well, dull. I thought it could have been more adventurous or interesting than simply slapping a picture of a Helghast soldier on the front. And it looks too similar to the Helghast soldier slapped on the front of Killzone 1.Come on Sony, this is supposed to be the game to get next year for PS3. The cover art falls into the generic aggression category of art, which is such a pity.Source: Playstation BlogI personally think the box art is fine, nothing special ... [»]

Gametrailers GOTY Awards – Best Graphics

I haven’t watched any of the other Gametrailers awards video’s yet but I had to post up this one as I completely disagree with their answer. I agree with their nominations for best graphics being Metal Gear Solid 4, Gears of War 2, Prince of Persia, Far Cry 2 and LittleBigPlanet but I just can’t agree with the winner. Not to ruin the surprise to much but I was really rooting for Prince of Persia to win as their art style was by ... [»]
