It’s been a long time coming, but we finally get to see what Sam Fisher has been up to in the oft-delayed Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction. Turns out he’s been busy. Die-Hard-24-and-Lethal-Weapon-all-rolled-into-one-busy. From the looks of the new trailer, this “stealth action” game seems to double-down on action at the expense of stealth. Though [...]
Think back to all of the films featuring Aliens, Predators, or both. In good times (Aliens) and bad (AvP: Requiem), have you ever wished you could be the Alien or the Predator in a videogame?

When Microsoft unveiled Windows Phone 7 this morning, they showed that they were finally ready to bring something stronger than NERF guns to the increasingly contentious smartphone street fight.

Naming the best videogame romances has been done has been done to death, so we decided to put on our matchmaking hats and focus on the best cross-title hookups that haven’t happened yet (and barring any imaginative fanfic, never will).
I’ve watched the new God of War III trailer that Sony unveiled last night half a dozen times now. It’s downright impressive, and, according to the official PlayStation Blog, 100% comprised of actual gameplay (no pre-rendered CGI disclaimer required).
Microsoft’s X10 event is wrapping up in San Francisco. The most notable pieces of info coming out of the one-day Xbox 360 media presentation were street dates for some of the year’s AAA titles. A multiplayer beta for Halo: Reach comes your way on May 3rd followed closely by Alan Wake on May 18th.
If you were surprised to hear Activision Publishing CEO Mike Griffith reveal yesterday during ATVI’s 4Q conference call that there’s going to be a sequel to Tony Hawk: Ride in 2010, you really shouldn’t have been. Yes, the game currently hovers in the low 40s on Metacritic for all three versions (we threw it a [...]
GameFly, the Netflix-like videogame rental service, filed for an initial public offering this morning that could raise up to $50 million. According to the S-1 registration document filed with the SEC, the company:
