Zero Punctuation: The Orange Box

By Gavin Mannion
October 18, 2007 - 18 years ago

Well this is a giant leap of faith, for some obscure reason that only Telkom could explain, I am unable to view the Zero Punctuation from the office this week. However I know the video is working for most people so I am publishing it anyway as I think Yahtzee is a brilliant reviewer. Anyway this week he is apparently …

Street Fighter 4 debut trailer

By Gavin Mannion
October 18, 2007 - 18 years ago

It’s back…. Capcom announced yesterday that Street Fighter 4 is currently in development. Street Fighter was easily one of the most popular games about 10 years ago and it really is strange that a sequel has not been created for so long. The development has only recently started and we will most probably only be seeing the game around this time …

The First COD4 TV Trailer

By Gavin Mannion
October 17, 2007 - 18 years ago

The COD4 marketing machine is starting up and its first salvo is a good one. I wonder if we will be getting this trailer on our TV’s? I really do think call of Duty 4 is going to sell more units in South Africa than Halo has. It’s about 3 weeks until release date and the word from the distributor …

October 17, 2007 - 18 years ago

After Capcom announced last week that Monster Hunter 3 was not going to be gracing the PS3 fans were annoyed. However Capcom said that PS3 fans must wait and they will feel better this week. Well the big secret has been revealed and it is Lost Planet. Now I thought this was great news for the PS3 as Lost Planet …

PS3 cleans up in Europe

By Gavin Mannion
October 17, 2007 - 18 years ago

The sales figures for the last week since the recent PS3 price drop are in and they have been flying off the shelves. Across the European Continent the PS3 sold 77,827 units which is 2000 more than the Wii managed and way more than the 42,244 units the 360 shipped. This follows on quite aptly from yesterdays story about the 178% rise …

Call of Duty 4 PC vs. Consoles

By Gavin Mannion
October 17, 2007 - 18 years ago

A quick video interview about COD4, where it is made clear that there is very little difference between the PC and Console versions. Not that we care since we are getting the console versions anyway but I thought it was an easy way to get some more COD4 news on the site. I know some of you were not lucky enough to get Beta …

New PlayStation 3 SKUs boost sales 178 per cent

By Gavin Mannion
October 16, 2007 - 18 years ago

Gamesindustry is claiming that they have been given data showing a 178% increase in PS3 sales since the 40Gb model was introduced in the UK. The sales for the week were the third highest since launch, but that is all the information we got really. The Wii beat the PS3 and the PS3 beat the 360. However without actual figures it really is all …

October 16, 2007 - 18 years ago

So I was just over at www.thexboxlounge.co.za organising a quiet Friday evening before the big party on Saturday and I noticed something strange. It appears that the guys who run the site have something up their sleeve, there is an image there now that says Something’s changing – We’re evolving Now I remember when TXL was more like a community site rather than purely …

Now a lot of people have been saying that COD4 is going to look much better on the PS3 than it will on the Xbox 360. It was finally going to show why the PS3 is a better gaming console. However the news trickling in is that it doesn’t look any better at all. Obviously this is causing some people to get …

Unfortunately CVG doesn’t seem to want me to embed the videos so you will have to follow this link to see the video. The Xbox 360 version has been in development for 6 months longer than the PS3 version but it is hard to tell really. The biggest difference between the two is that the Xbox 360 version has online multiplayer, …
