Today we get another look at the titular hero re-assuring fans across the world that Max Payne lives on and that the game is still coming. Soon. Maybe. I’m not sure if the dude with the hair is Max but if it is ... Read More!

Quick Thoughts: Top Spin 4 Demo
Tried the Topspin 4 demo with Move. Again it’s just swinging, and not about position. You move with the nav controller in your left hand and swing with the Move controller in your right. It didn’t adjust for body position, but that’s just the game. It’s not like say table tennis in Sports Champion. At the end moving your character with an analog stick while feverishly ... Read More!
Quick Thoughts: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 Demo
Tried the Tiger Woods demo with Move, not as intuitive as I thought. In fact it was just like pretend motion, needs to be heavily refined. It’s a simulation of golf swinging and that’s it. I couldn’t control my back swing accurately at all, it’d motion way too far in relation to the character on-screen and myself. So 30% power in say real life ended up being like 50% ... Read More!
Quick Thoughts: Contra Hard Corps Uprising
I tried that new contra game on PSN, it’s super hard. You gotta level up and stuff. I found myself playing it for an hour or so. I actually bought all the DLC characters too, it’s solid contra. Weapon rate is a little slow though, only complaint so far and it’s fucking hard. Just going to be one of those trial and error, memorizing levels games. 3 lives, 3 continues, ... Read More!
Trailer: The Conduit 2
I played a lot of the first Conduit on initial release as many people, including myself, saw it as the FPS of choice on Nintendo’s console that unapologetically borrowed and was influenced by some of the bigger name games on rival consoles. I’ve been keeping up with the sequel to the lone bastion of FPS gaming on the Wii and it looks like the new game will do a bit of ... Read More!
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime Dev Diary
I’m a huge Ghostbusters fan and usually geek out at the mere thought of the theme song, proton packs, or just enough bright lights “crossing streams” before my eyes so I always enjoy when someone shares my enthusiasm for the franchise.

The first trailer for the sequel to the critically acclaimed Batman Arkham Asylum has made its way online and shows off Batman, Catwoman, and Mr. Harvey “Two-Face” Dent himself in what appears to be some of the dirties, wettest, grittiest locations I’ve ever seen in a videogame in my life that undoubtedly pushes the Unreal Engine in directions I’d never imagined for a ...
