The sequel to Capcom’s zombie-killing action title’s been pushed back to September, but the Japanese company’s still releasing tidbits about the game.
First up is an unveiling of the Dead Rising 2 box art, which shows hero Chuck Green elbow-deep in zombies with a chainsaw paddle. While murderous and clever, the chainsaw …
There’s a rumor swirling about that a revamped iPod Touch may be in line for Apple and that this particular model would feature a 5-megapixel camera on the back capable of shooting HD video and a front-facing camera that’s capable of FaceTime video chatting.

Zombies are coming to Red Dead Revolver. Because zombies make everything better. But that’s not all that’s coming to RDR. Rockstar revealed an ambitious DLC schedule today, which details four new content packs due out by the fall.
Here’s the whole schmeer from the press release:
The upcoming downloadable content for Red Dead

According to a Wall Street Journal report today, Sony might just be working on their next-generation video-game handheld.

Apple is currently dealing with the public fallout from the discovery that someone had hacked iTunes accounts to fake purchases for 41 of his comic apps in the bookstore – comic apps that were, themselves, stolen intellectual property.

There’s two things I hate about being a critic in the games industry:
1. Nothing comes out in the summer (at least no major releases).
2. Everything (most of the stuff worth paying attention to, anyway) comes out in the fall and winter.
Yes, I know I’m …
Today, six-time champion and Hall-of-Famer Michael Jordan makes his debut as the cover athlete of 2K Sports’ upcoming basketball title.

Twitter 1: “We need to start making money, guys.”
Twitter 2: “Affiliate sales!”

Every year, a group of journalists and critics from 31 media outlets doggedly plays more games than humanly possible to suss out the cream of the crop from E3. It’s grueling work. Seriously.

For all my nerdy comic-book and video-game hoarding, I’ve never been a toy collector. I’ve got a beloved 7” Mego Batman from my childhood upon my bookshelf, but that’s about it. (Said Mego figure has had a hand-drawn Bat-symbol taped on its chest for three decades. The sticker fell off and was lost and dammit, it’s not just …
