Yup it’s Thursday which means it’s Yahtzee time. Start the video buffering, go get your coffee and enjoy Yahtzee going nuts about how they destroyed his beloved Silent Hill… Not his best effort but still very funny. As always he has a potty mouth so headphones are required if you are in an office.
1UP.com has a very nice preview of the upcoming PS3 exclusive “The Agency” The Agency is a massively multiplayer online shooter based in a world filled with either James Bond like super spies (U.N.I.T.E) or rough and tough mercenaries from Paragon. It’s going to be a first person shooter utilising the Unreal Engine and the idea is that you will …
I have to say that I am very excited about this game, it really does look like something completely new. A GTA/Crackdown/Jericho, hopefully it brings all the good and none of the bad from those three titles… Especially Jericho. The story sounds fantastic and the little gameplay footage we do see does look very well done indeed. Here is hoping …
Well, news coming out of CES 2008 seems to hint that Microsoft could jump ship over to Blu-Ray. Not to get your feathers ruffled up or anything here’s the exact quote from Albert Penello, group marketing manager for Xbox hardware in the US: It should be consumer choice; and if that’s the way they vote, that’s something we’ll have to …
So the first worldwide (minus Japan) sales charts are in and it looks like an exciting year ahead of us. Straight to the hardware sales 1. Wii – 335,3772. PS3 – 194,4943. 360 – 193,343 So the PS3 has overtaken the 360 (just) and the Wii is easily the clear leader but once again it comes down to the all …
It has been mentioned a few times that we are yet to really see what LittleBigPlanet is about. Well at CES 2008 they have finally demonstrated a level being played properly and now with sack boy death as well… So I take it you develop levels and then try to complete them. I think I am going to leave the …
Before anyone says anything I need to make something very clear. I did not write this and am not responsible for any raised blood pressure that may come from it. Someone over at gametrailers.com called killerhurtalot (I hope that isn’t his real name) has compiled a 5 page list which compares the PS3 and 360 in every technical way possible. …
Okay it is not exactly what we all wanted to hear but at least it is some more confirmation. Paul Purdy, a Sony representative at CES, has confirmed that the in-game XMB is going to be coming to the PS3 in 2008. When pressed for more information all he said was that Sony was more interested in hardware at CES. …
Megarom has sent out a press release proudly stating that it managed to take the top two places on the gaming charts for November for both the Xbox 360 and PS3, it also managed to place two titles in the top 5 on the PC charts. While at this time I don’t know what the other titles are we can …
I think this rumour has been going on long enough and it is time to put it to rest. You have all heard that the pornographic industry was the reason that VHS won out over Betamax in the last format war, and that the porn industry was heavily backing HD-DVD in this war. Well no one can confirm for deny …
LBP is being shown off at CES this year and one of the new features that is being demonstrated is emotion. Personally I am worried about the direction that LBP seems to be heading in but it still does look like a huge amount of fun. Anyway it has been a while since we saw some new LBP and watching …

The truly simple way of deciding which system is the best one for you and your circumstances… So does your favourite console suit you properly? (Click on the image for a larger version) I can’t find who originally created it so …
