Codemasters are asking gamers to come to their offices and play-testDiRT3. Now obviously you cannot just turn-up as that would just be rude, instead you need to go to theCodemasters forumsand give them:
Anyone thinking that the recently announced partnership between Microsoft and British Telecom would yield a new, interesting way to use the Xbox 360 might be a bit disappointed. That said, Microsoft hascontacted Eurogamerin an effort to clarify the situation stating that the “Xbox 360 is able to offer the complete Microsoft mediaroom experience, including both live TV and VOD, when delivered over an Internet Protocol network.” Additionally, “customers can transfer live television content to their Xbox 360 that they have captured on their set top box....
Oh, and split-screen local multiplayer! I remember asking theConduitdevs about that feature the first time around. It’s here along with tons of other details that we found atIGNin their first look at the upcoming Wii FPSConduit 2. Yes, they dropped the “The” out of the sequel’s title. It seems that High Voltage tightened up the graphics a little bit, literally and figuratively. There’s going to be two dozen weapons in this sequel, including a Vortex Blaster that collects enemies bullets and chunks them back in a big cluster....

This screencap, taken from the epicSonic Unleashedopening that Segatore away from the Internet, reveals that Dr. Robotnik isn’t the bad egg he’s cracked up to be. After all, he loves the Dreamcast, since he has the consolelying at his feetin this top-down shot. That counts for something. It doesn’t seem like Sega will be creating a Dreamcast 2 in the near future, but at least the company hasn’t forgotten the old console, one that many people look back on fondly as a great system that suffered from terrible luck....
As we’re Twitter whores here at Destructoid HQ, we quickly noticed David Perry’s (Earthworm Jim, Shiny)tweet about the PSP 2and how it wouldn’t have a UMD drive slot. After that made headlines, Sony’s John Koller took a shot back, saying that he “didn’t even know who the guy was until a month ago.” What’s of note is thatKoller did not denythat the PSP 2 would lack the UMD drive. Now Perry is back at his tweeting device of choice, and is now calling out Sony....
In development for what seems like forever, Sony Online Entertainment is finally putting a date onDC Universe Online: November 2010. Okay, so maybe it’s not as specific as you’d want it to be, but at least now you know what to ask for when it comes to holiday wish lists, I suppose. Not being a huge MMO guy myself, I definitely liked what I played a few weeks back… on both the PC and the PlayStation 3....
The moment I read thatWayForwardhad announced a puzzle game with horror elements, I was instantly intrigued. There’s nothing I love more than a game that tries to take a different approach, and with its moody atmospherics and puzzles wrapped in mystery, it seemed as ifLITwould be right up my alley. However, as many of you already know, I am no fan of the Wii control scheme as I tend to feel most developers attempt to build their games to use the motion control of the Wiimote whether the game calls for it or not....
Earlier this week, Major Nelson hinted at the possibility of select Xbox 360 owners participating in a beta for the New Xbox Experience, the console’s upcoming major GUI overhaul. Today, Microsoft has made good on the promise, offering the first details on how to get in before the update launches on November 19. Simply head over to thewhere you’ll be asked a few questions about your Internet connection, your location, and more (nothing too personal, we hope)....

You’ve seen the original3DS Douchebags, you’ve seen theDouchier 3DS Douchebags, and now I proudly present … theBritish 3DS Douchebags! Ah, they do my ol’ home country proud. Yep, it’sanotherNintendo 3DS commercial filled with gormless parodies of humanity, gawping ineptly for our viewing pleasure. Nintendo would have you believe that these arseholes aren’t paid actors, although I’m notentirelyconvinced. As usual, I’ve named each Douchebag (in order of appearance) for easy recognition — Breadboy Gufflestuff, Gareth “Slobberknocker” Beerbelly, Felinus Felinus, Derpus Pigeonstreet, Giggles McF*ck, Smookles O’Hara, Huuuuur Duuuuuuuur, Pervy St....

Weekly sales of the DS rose by more than 18,000 units, selling78,666 in total. This was helped in no small part by the five DS titles that got into the software chart’s top ten....
