BFBC2 is lookin sweeter and sweeter, Moder Warfare has serious competition here. Check out the Multi player game modes in the latest Dev Diary- Squad Deathmatch. Looks like allot of die'n goin on... whats new eh?!

Just Cause 2 Island in Chaos - Hmmm...

Not too Sure about Just Cause 2, it does look fun but it also seems to be having an identity crisis. It is littered with bits of Mercenaries 2 - Uncharted - GTA - with a stereo typical James Bond style plot... but perhaps these are good things?! Don't think much of the little fat fella in the white suit either way, mini me meets boss Hog! Time will tell... 'Viva Revolution'!

Battlefield BC 2 - Panama Canal Gameplay

BFBC2 is looking more and more frickin amazing! Check out this little trailer that gives you a Tanks eye perspective... and notice the warthog/ATV jobbies, weee hooo,its dukes of hazard time again!

Crackdown 2 World Premiere Trailer

Well here it is - the new Crackdown 2 premiere trailer which also debuted at the Spike Video Game Awards '09. Can't make up our collective mind whether the graphics are stylish, graphic novel-esque... or crap and dated. Anyway, enjoy. Click here for the full size HD version.

Star Wars - The Force Unleashed 2 - Baddy - Goody... who knows?!

Also released at the VGA's was this trailer for Star Wars TFU2! Personally I loved the first game despite the controversy about the DLC (see our rant) so I'm delighted to see it return. Theres no such thing as too much Star Wars... or beer!

VGA Awards - The Geeks have spoken!!

Well the VGA's were on this weekend and what a hell of a party it was! Samuel Jackson, Kid Rock and a bunch of other big names graced the stage. Just shows how big gaming is these days! Some big announcements and previews, and then of course there are the actual winners. You can see all this on Spike TV in the meantime here are the highlights in case you missed it... Buzz word here today is BIG!!!

Mass Effect 2 - Meet the Talent Featurette

Well, its unlikely that Mass Effect will suck space turds but if it does at least it will have some of the best voices to sooth it... great line up of well known Hollywood actors doing the vocals and more than a hint of Battlestar Galactica talent. I recon its gonna shine like the stars that are in the game... and not like a space turd...

Welcome to Halo: Reach

The new Halo: Reach World Premiere trailer closed the show at this year's Spike TV Video Game Awards, but don't worry if you missed it. Watch it here. Welcome to Reach

Dead Space 2 - Features Update.

Well, we have a few bits to add to the news below... Multiplayer is confirmed for a start, although there are no details on what exactly will be involved... co-op perhaps? Also, as suspected the campaign takes place on the a planet surface of of a Saturn Moon within the space station called 'Sprwal'. This is said to be massive, way bigger than the original Dead Space and has many different 'themed' areas. You shall be Isaac Clarke again and can now float in zero G during game play. Isaac also decides to break his silence and has talking parts in the game... All sounds alien-arific... We'll let ya know more as we get it.

Previously reported:
Blood, guts and gizzards, Dead Space had it all! Its fair to say that Dead Space 2 will have all of the same and more. From the newest released image (below) of DP2 its a fair guess that you will be kicking gooey dead ass on the planet surface this time. Theres also talk of Multiplayer... hmmm.
Well keep you posted on the updates for this when we get em. In the meantime, if you haven't checked out the Dead Space animated series, do it now cos I recon its vital background for the game to come...

Bioshock Trailer - Siren Alley

Whose the Daddy? You are ya plank! This eerie little trailer reminds you of what pleasures a Dig Daddy has, little girls, big sisters and a city of floating bloated meat sacks... You might need therapy after playing this game and a restraining order to keep ya away from children... its all very twisted but looks good!

PS3 Motion Controll called 'GEM'?

This is only rumour at the moment but apparently a little leak about Sony's answer to 'Project Natal' has a name... its 'Gem'. Apparently EA head honcho John Riccitiello said at a conference in New York: "In the coming year, both Sony and Microsoft have announced new controllers. Motion sensor controls, Natal and Gem, these are likely to bring new consumers into the marketplace" Hmmm... sounds fairly real to me... but Sony are taking the fifth on the subject "No official name for the PlayStation motion controller has been announced" - We recon this is 'Not Bullshit!'
Is it a Gem? We shall have to wait and see and hopefully the actual controller will not just be cheap costume jewelery! Fingers crossed eh!

Dead Space 2 - Isaac visits the surface?

Blood, guts and gizzards, Dead Space had it all! Its fair to say that Dead Space 2 will have all of the same and more. From the newest released image (below) of DP2 its a fair guess that you will be kicking gooey dead ass on the planet surface this time. Theres also talk of Multiplayer... hmmm.
Well keep you posted on the updates for this when we get em. In the meantime, if you haven't checked out the Dead Space animated series, do it now cos I recon its vital background for the game to come...

Modern Warfare 2 - Javelin Glitch... What is it?

Infinity ward and Microsoft have been having massive shit attacks over a little glitch in MW2 multiplayer... even to the point of suspending players on the xbox! So what is this little bug... well it allows you to blow allot of shit up when you die and take other players with you! Sweet you say, but if your on the receiving end of this its just a pain in the ass and leads to an empty map... not to worry, a fix is soon on its way. It would be irresponsible of anyone that showed how this little Javelin glitch is used, so without further a do, here it is... Glitch responsibly!

VGA Awards - Get voting geeks!

The annual Video Game Awards are to be held Live on December 12th (2009) at 8pm eastern U.S. time, you can do the math yourself to figure out what time this is for your country... It will be aired on Spike TV and you may also vote here. So get to it, have your say, time is running out!

Moder Warfare... Star Wars style!

Check out this cool mod 'Galactic Warfare' from a bunch of German modders - BLACKMONKEYS.DE. Its pretty cool and not a Jedi in sight...
It's there for the taking... get it!

Dante's Inferno - Heresy Dev Diary - Hot stuff!

Welcome to the sixth circle, Heresy! Burn in Hell heathens!!! This is what you impure people have to look forward to... you were warned by the baby Jesus! I'l see ya all there and greet you with a moheto, great drink in the heat! Don't forget to pack the sun screen and the Bermuda short...

Christmas Tree Gaming Decorations!!!

What could be better than an xbox, PS3 or Wii sitting under your tree at Christmas? One hangin on the tree perhaps? That's right, you can now get gaming related decorations for the big green foliage that sits in your best room wrapped in lights... Aliens would think us mad! Anyway you can get these wonders over at WONDERLAND, there is a nice variety to choose from including Mario Mushrooms and Zelda crystals... Id like a Lara croft in a sants helper suit or perhaps that Bayonetta chick... ooo arr!

Darksiders - Hell of a Trailer!

Seems like the tropical heat of Hell and Hades is a popular place to be this year. Dante's Inferno and God of War are now being followed by Darksiders. I do love the concept but I don't think this looks all that great, definitely not to the standard of Dante's or God of War. That said, we shall withhold the guillotine till we actually get a go of it. Now, go to Hell... again!

Red Dead Redemption - Release date and trailer!

Red Dead Redemption is looking rather good, real Clint Eastwood stuff! It looks set to be released on the 27th of April 2010, so get your chewing tobacco and trigger finger ready, pilgrim.

Mass Effect 2 Adept Class Vid... Use the force... Sheppard?!

Mass Effect 2 is one of the next big titles to land on our heads after Christmas and this is one of the new classes you can use... nope, not Santa Clause... its the 'Adept' class. Looks a bit like 'The Force' to me... but that's kinda cool so we shall allow it.

Aliens V's Predator - Multiplayer game test.

Mmmm tasty humans, the newest in a long line of AvP games is about to burst open and stick itself to your face and possibly rip out your spine. There looks like hints of L4D in this and even a game type that will make you feel like a solider out of the original predator movie... I bags to be Arnie!

Dragon Age - Dirty Sex!! - No Comment!

No Comment...

BBC iPlayer for Xbox 360 delayed indefinitely

Plans to launch the BBC iPlayer on Xbox 360 have stalled, according to a report by The Telegraph.

The dispute is centred around BBC's iPlayer, a service that allows people in the UK to watch BBC programs from their computer, PS3 or Wii. There were also plans to include the iPlayer on the Xbox 360, but because Microsoft insisted on restricting access to the player to paying, Gold subscribers, the BBC are withholding it.

"Microsoft only wants to offer its users access to platforms it can charge for as this is the model it is pursuing," a source close to the BBC said.

"This does not fit with the BBC's model and Microsoft will not budge at the moment. It is really frustrating for those involved on the BBC side who want to make sure iPlayer is rolled out on as many popular entertainment platforms as possible," said the source.

Microsoft declined to comment on the report.

Transformers Avatar gear on Xbox Live

If you want to be a Transgender... er I mean Transformer then you can dress up your little dolly avatar as Bumble Bee, Optimus Prime or Megatron... all for a price though, 240 msp per head.See what I did there... Head... get it... urg!

Chick destroys boyfriends xbox!!! Ahhh!!!

Holy Shit!! This is disturbing, I recon a restraining order is needed!

Happy ThanksGiving!! And a jolly Black Friday!!

To all our American pals, (and as a native New Yorker living in Ireland), we here at Reaper Gaming wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!!! It is a time of year to be kind and giving to your fellow human... Screw that, its about turkey and free time, woo-hoo!! Enjoy the games and booze over the holidays and try not to get badly hurt this Black Friday as you trample all over your fellow man for the best deals available, good times! To the rest of the world... its business as usual, unfortunately. Gobble-Gobble!

New Star Wars game to be announced...

Can you feel it in the force? Get out your glow sticks, there is a new tasty Star Wars game coming... Is it the lost 'Battlefront 3'? or perhaps a sequel to 'The force unleashed'? The trailer below would indicate that it will be set after 'Return of the Jedi' which would be kinda cool! The game will be announced at this years VGA's on December 12th and can be seen at Spike TV. The biggest question is though- Will we get to blast Ewoks?? Here's hoping!

L4D2 Glitch - Funny!

Well boys and girls, there is quite simply 'fook all' going on at the moment in the game world, and what is going on is too boring to report. I guess everybody is too busy wading through all the big releases over the last month... I know I am! Anyway, here's a lil glitch in L4D2, its quite funny actually, like dancing on ice crossed with a floating retard. Enjoy!

Merc Inc trailer - GTA version of Mercenaries

Pandemic may gone but its titles live on - Mercenaries Inc looks to be a multiplayer enviorment somewhere 3rd worldly, could be fun! It has kept itself well hidden... till now! Enjoy.

Star Wars Piss take!

The lads over at G4 have put together this nice little bit of Star Wars humour, it wont make you laugh your ewoks off but it is worth look. May the chuckels be with you!

You cant be Serious... Sam.

Its coming and its coming in HD!! Sam's goona rock our world... again... just not on the PS3 which is a shame. The web site is also worth a gander, funny little lads those Croats.

Ultra-Realistic Modern Warfare Game Features Awaiting Orders, Repairing Trucks

ONN gives us a sneak peak at some of the new features and gameplay elements we can expect in Modern Warfare 3.

;)



Ultra-Realistic Modern Warfare Game Features Awaiting Orders, Repairing Trucks

Left 4 Dead 2 - Midnight Riders - Metal Death!!!

Well, today's the day! Left 4 Dead 2 is out and I have my copy just waiting to overheat my Xbox. The game now has its own Metal Band 'Midnight Riders' which you will get a hint of in the 'Dark Carnival' campaign, keep those eyes peeled. The rumours are that they may be a bigger part of L4D2 in the form of future DLC... that would be very cool! I can just see it now, smashing Zombies with a microphone and throwing Hi-hats for decapitations... They even have their own web site, check it out here. You can also hear them here... yes! I said hear them, as in music! Zombies and Metal... does it get any better?

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Multiplayer Trailer

Lots of meaty death for ya here, BF Bad Company 2 is shaping up nicely from the looks of it but will it be good enough to tempt Modern Warfare 2 players away from their killing sprees? I don't think so... but still looking forward to BFBC2. Its war overload!!

Dante's Inferno - New Cinematic Trailer

Lots of Dante's Inferno stuff lately, Hell is fashionable I guess! Anyway click on the image to see the latest trailer for the game (or here), its a Cinematic sequence giving you the vibe for the story... Rar!!!

Pandemic Studios - Gone to pixel heaven!

Awww... If you loved the 'Mercenaries' and 'Star Wars Battlefront' games then this is going to disappoint you, Pandemic Studios are on their way out. EA have confirmed that they are laying off 200 people from the Pandemic LA studio as it is set for closure. EA are cleaning house lately and some of its other studios have suffered layoffs and it seems that they are trying to consolidate their studios. Pandemic Australia already suffered the chop with the Batman Title 'Dark Knight' being put on ice but EA seem confident that the upcoming 'Saboteur' and 'C&C 4 Tiberian Twilight' will still go ahead... expect delays though I recon!! Ah well, RIP Pandemic, you shall be missed.

Left 4 Dead - Oldschool style!

This is quite frightening actually... mainly because I remember playing games just like this back in da day. Just makes me glad that things have improved, that said they were very exciting games at the time! I feel like grandpa Simpson 'In my day we only had 3 colours and square pixels and a ten mile walk to school', Arg, I am old...

Facebook on Consoles - Stalkers Dream.

We all know that the XBox 360 gets Facebook and several other goodies today but did you know that the PS3 is also jumping on the stalker bandwagon? Silly me, I thought Games were the priority... guess not! Here's a walk through of the PS3 Facebook setup...

Assassins Creed 2 - Lineage Movie - Full Series

The whole collection of Assassins Creed Lineage is now available and well worth a watch before the game comes out next Friday (20th November). Check it out...

Dante's Inferno - Animated Epic

Just like Halo, Dante's Inferno is branching into the Animated world. It should compliment the game nicely and I predict it to become a success, maybe more so than the Halo animated offerings... ?! Either way I like the cut of Dante's Jib!

Xbox 360 Facebook - Twitter Update - Days Away

That's right, if your a social network junkie then this is for you, its coming to us on Tuesday November the 17th and is said to be a different experience to what PC users are used to... does that mean it will be even crapper? Anyway, happy stalking!

XBOX 360 Avatars - Assassins Creed 2

If ya wanna dress to kill check out the now Assassins Creed 2 clothing for you avatar and even a nice little DiVinci glider to play with... but as usual, it will cost ya, Doh!

Dante's Inferno - Game Demo coming soon!!!

I personally cant wait for this; next month (December 09) the whole first level of Dante's Inferno is coming as a demo to XBL and PSN. The full game isn't due till February 9th in the USA and February 12th in Europe but I imagine the demo will be enough to keep us blood lusting gamers happy till release. Thank you God, thank you Visceral games, thank you Satan... er, I mean EA.

Like your PS3 coverd in Gold?

The ultimate bling for any console is to dip it in gold... not gold paint... real Gold! Some may call it tacky, stylish or a sign of immense wealth... I call it fools Gold! But if this would match that plated Blackberry, iBook, or even that gangsta tooth then this is for you. All you need now is a leopard skin coat, pink hat and a couple of hookers to play your games with!! Computer Choppers will provide the gold plated customisation, the rest is up to you...

Xbox Live 1 v 100 - Return of the Nerdy!!

Are you suffering from gameshow'itus? Miss all those cuddly avatars dancing? Well pine no more, 1 v 100 is back on November 19th. Get ready to win some points with all new trivia to answer!! Its more fun than eating your own hand!!

Assassins Creed 2 - Developer Diary 6

Want to see an assassins crib? Come on in and see where the magic happens, just don't turn your back or you might get a knife in it! We also see some menu layout and general design issues being addressed... how exciting! Just give me a sword and I'll kill bad people! Not long to wait now... just ten days to release! 20/11/09

Dante's Inferno - The Sixth Circle - Heresy Dev Diary

Were on the Highway to Hell big time with this latest Dev Diary for Dante's Inferno. Heresy is the fire and brimstone banquet where every dirty soul gets BBQ'd alive... or unalive. I like mine well done please Beelzebub, with a side of salad! Also shown are the moral choices that will have to be made... I recon this game is going to cause quite a bit of controversy with the blue rinse brigade, already they are screaming 'Baby killer'. Cant wait... muhahahaha!

Mass Effect 2 - Nice Combat gameplay footage.

It is amazing that with all the great games around at the moment there is little news to follow them, guess its a 'cat got the cream' situation, everybody's too busy playing... Anyway, here is some Mass Effect 2 combat footage and the return of a familiar face - Garrus. Enjoy!

Halo Reach - Leaked Stills?

Little is know about Halo Reach at the moment but here are some leaked screens that may or may not be part of what to expect, its all just rumour at present. Also indicated is that this game is using a new engine and the screens do have a different look to them compared to Halo 3. Personally I think it just might be legit...which would mean it is a fps after all. Check out this site for more info and images.

God of War 3 - Gameplay footage!!!

Hope your not squeamish... this game play footage of God of War 3 has more squelch and snaps in it than a bowl of blood coated rice crispies. Have to say, I'm really looking forward to kicking some Deity ass!

Great Site for Gamers - Ctrl+Alt+Del - Great Gamer Comics

Like this little skit below?? Then see a rake more here at Ctrl+Alt+Del
Seriously, its a must for any gamer with a sense of humour!!! Lots of other goodies there too. Respect to Timmy!

Assassins Creed 2 - Developer Diary - Ezio is a popular Dude!

Ezio meets all the lovely criminals and family skeletons that will help him extract bloody revenge on his enemies in this 'Factions' feature. Looking forward to playing it!! Put your life on hold for this!

Call of Duty - Modern Warefare 2 - TV Advert - MP News - XBL Avatar

Lots of Modern warfare goodies today, the Infinity ward hype machine is in overdrive and to sucker you into parting with more cash they are selling cool duds for you avatar on XBL (above)... cant say I agree with charging for these little items, why cant they just put them into the game as unlockabels instead?

Also it is being reported that the Xbox and PS3 multi player cap of 18 players (9v9) per game is now to be imposed on PC players who were expecting 32 player slots like in the previous COD games... This may have something to do with Infinity ward dropping the dedicated servers and adopting the console system to host matches... sucks for the poor PC gamers as it takes away one of the key reasons to play it on your computer, don't be surprised if PC sales are down because of this while pirate copy's go up, tut tut Infinity Ward! You shouldn't punish your hard core players!

Anyway, check out the TV spot for MW2 ta get those blood lusting urges ready (below)...

The Sims - The Horror!!!

Great piss take on the Sims from the lads at college humour...

Scratch DJ - Please stop with the Hip Hop games!!

Ok, I know trends come and go but at the moment the game trend seems to be all about the decks and DJ's... Let me get off the fence straight away... I hate them all! It all looks rubbish to me and full of 'yo yo', 'pretty fly for a white guy' grammatically challenged jail bait but there are people out there that find this kind of thing fun so here is what looks like DJ Hero's main competitor for now... Scratch DJ. What next, Harp player, Pianist tapper or maybe some Yodelling? Arg... enjoy!

Star Wars - TFU - Hoth Game play - Vader mark 2!

Although I totally disapprove of the greedy way Lucasarts have gone about releasing this 'Hoth' level exclusively in a new Sith addition and not as DLC I am still looking forward to getting down with my bad ass Jedi self and whooping Luke's ass... eventually. In the meantime check out some game play footage from the Ice cream planet of Hoth.

Prince of Persia - Movie Trailer

Prince of Persia is one of the older platform'ers to have survived the decades and indeed thrive in the last few years... now Hollywood have got their hands on it and it looks like the cash cow is about to explode! Maybe it will be good but I'm not holding my breath, looks like allot of eye candy and not much depth, hopefully I'm wrong... and why do they all have English accents its 'Prince of Persia', not Prince Harry! Just waiting for someone to say 'Would you like a cup of tea', Jeese!

Microsoft Confirms LIVE Console Ban Wave to IGN

Apparently, the ban wave has been going on over the past week. So far reports coming in are from the US & Canada. No doubt the rest of the world will soon follow.

From IGN:
"We have taken action against a small percentage of consoles that have been modified to play pirated game discs," a Microsoft spokesperson told IGN. "In line with our commitment to combat piracy and support safer and more secure gameplay for the more than 20 million members of our Xbox LIVE community, we are suspending these modded consoles from Xbox LIVE."

MS Forcefully Removes Private Chat from Upcoming Titles

From examiner.com:

"Do you like to use the party chat option on your Xbox 360? Well, if you do, you may soon find yourself being forced out of using that option. Microsoft appears to be offering developers the option to negate the private chat option the Xbox 360 offers. Currently, players have the option of forming a private chat with players, but that will soon change.


Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will force players to decide whether or not they’ll play the game and join the game chat, or choose to stay in a private chat and not play in the multiplayer game. With titles like Gears of War, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: World at War, and many other online based multiplayer titles, the private chat feature became a way of telling other players of enemy locations after being killed.


Such a feature shouldn’t detract from the overall online experience much, but there will surely be some gamers who won’t like the type of feature being implemented. With some gamers only using the private chat to talk to friends while playing different games, this will likely pose a problem for them."

This news has been far from welcomed in the community, e.g.:
Yes! I can't wait to go back a step and once again have to listen to racists, squeaky voiced 11 year olds who shouldn't even own a rated M title, homophobes, angst ridden Mcdonalds employee teenagers, people too cheap or stupid to fix their echo filled headsets, people listening to music as max volume in the background, the guy with 3 kills and 14 deaths yelling tips for everyone, the guy with 12 kills and no deaths who spent the past 12 minutes crouched in a corner waiting for someone to walk by talking about how he "PWNED" everyone, the guy with the mic WAY too close to his mouth who no one can understand, etc...

Just Cause 2 - 5 min trailer - Blow stuff up!

Cant say I was a big fan of the first Just Cause, but this one is slowly grabbing my attention...

Bold EA and some dirty Dragon Age tactics!

Oh oooo!!! Looks like those dirty tactics are back! You might remember back when Batman Arkham asylum was coming that Edios was said to have made a deal with reviewers so that they could release a review before the embargo... if the game was given a 9/10 or equivalent score! Well apparently the dude (RAM Raider) that broke open that evil little egg has claimed the same over 'EA' and 'Dragon Age: Origins'. Tut tut, whether the game is good or bad this kind of tactic is just... wrong! Full story here: RAM Raider

Great Site for Gamers - Rooster Teeth.

Have you ever heard of 'Rooster Teeth' ? Red v's Blue ? Achievement Hunter? If not get your ass over there and check out the abundant amount of cool stuff on offer, the comics are a particular favourite of mine! Newbies, check out the archives for all the goodies from their past its well worth it!!! Here's a taster of some R v B, so if ya like it then click here for more:Rooster Teeth
Enjoy!

South Park - Rockband... Lady CartMan.

Yay! Its Friday! Seen as there is not allot of news today here is a nice little south park clip of Cartman singing 'Poker Face' on rock band with Stan getting all moral... shut up Stan!!

I Want Bigger! BIGGER! B- I -G- G- E -R!!

In a surprising move, Nintendo have announced a larger version of their smash-hit handheld gaming device DSi. The new DS, sporting a substantial sizing up of the dual screen is being given the moniker DSLL in Japan with an expected release date of November 21st. We can expect to get our grubby little Euro-Fingers on it early 2010 when it lands here as the Dsi XL. The new dual screen size will be 4.25 inches and pricing available so far is around 20,000 Yen ($220) but we'll let you do the Euro math!

Strange move if you ask us, coming at a time when Sony is reducing it's screen size on the PSP Go and most mobile devices are working their asses off to shed a few pounds! But as we've learned in the past, the one thing the Japanese giant knows for sure is the handheld market...

Master Chief owns Mario

Those lads at Machinima keep the laughs coming! The Princess is all grown up it seems.... Didn't Luigi tell Mario what she was really like?

Left 4 Dead 2 - Viral AD...

Total Shawn of the Dead humour here... not overly funny but amusing all the same. There is plenty of blubber to go around anyway... you will understand at the end.

GTA4 - Ballad of Gay Tony - Meet Luis Lopez

We have seen a few of the characters that will be in Gay tony... I mean, not in... but in the game. Eh em... Oops Pardon! Anyway, this guy is the most important one really, coz come next Friday it is the back of Luis Lopez's head we will see as we mow down the baddies!

Wii Like It...

In a mystery, wrapped in an an enigma, wrapped in a riddle Wii gamers have been left, well, Wii-ing with excitement at news that the classic N64 title 'Goldeneye' is set for a comeback and it won't be a re-hash, more like Goldeneye 2010. It has to be said however, it is but a rumour.

Gaming-industry site Superannuatation reported a CV belonging to a video game animator who had worked for Eurocom Entertainment Software (Quantum of Solace, Nightfire) was posted on-line claiming to have worked on Goldeneye 2010 Wii: "Animator on Activision's James Bond series for the Nintendo Wii assisting in: Key frame animation, the preparation and clean-up of motion capture data, prop animation, in-game cut-scene animation, scene layout, and camera animation." The CV was later pulled...

Neither Nintendo or Activision will comment on the news (When they don't talk it must be true, right?) and several industry insiders believe it to be likely, sooner or later. The reason for it taking so long? Well, if you remember Microsoft took over 'Rare' (who originally developed the title) and Activision subsequently swooped in and bought the rights to 007, creating the proverbial licensing blackhole.. And we all know Nintendo and Microsofts behavior when it comes to the 'L' word!

So what do you think? Would Goldeneye kick ass on Wii? Nunchuck PPK anyone? Or just dust off the old N64 for the time being...

Modern Warfare 2 - Intro Scene Leaked!!

Uh oh... someone sprung a leak in the Infinity Ward ship... It has apparently been pulled from YouTube and everywhere else, almost, but the lads over at Live Leak still have it. The quality is weak but regardless, here is some intro game play for COD: MW2, so it goes without saying that this is a spoiler, but in case you're visually retarded - WARNING - SPOILER!!!! - Apparently it is causing quite a stir and Activision is pretty pissed because it doesn't want Nervous Nellys complaining about the violence before the game gets its launch. If ya don't give a crap about any of that, then enjoy...

XBox 360 Live - update today... but not the one you want!

There is a XBL update due today, in fact it could be about now... It's not for Facebook or Twitter or any of that, they are due later next month. This is apparently for adding WAP2 compatibility for the Xbox Wireless adaptor. Its all science and no fun I'm afraid... so don't wet your pants when you turn on the xbox... hold that back till next month!

Assassins Creed 2 - Lineage Movie Part 1

Sweet! It's here - the Assassins Creed Lineage short movie! Part one is now up and ready to watch on the AC2 YouTube channel... but you may watch it from right here. Enjoy, it is quality!!!

WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 - Lose the underwear bug!!

That's right, if you like your scantly clad pixel women with no underwear on then check this out! It's a bug in the game that allows you to see the naughty bits on the wrestler'ette... it's a bit long so if you just wanna see the money shot then skip to 2:30 duration on the vid... If only life imitated art eh!

Bioshock 2 - New trailer!

It ain't easy being the daddy... but a big drill on your arm makes it so much more fun! This Bioshock 2 trailer shows some multi player fun and some nice indications that the Bioshock atmosphere is still there... goody!
