We’re close to hearing the results of the massive Soldier vs. Demoman conflict! Wouldn’t you know it, last we heard, the gap between the kill counts became ever so small. At this point, either class could come out on top and win an exclusive new weapon. If only Valve would hurry it up. The war may be (technically) over, but wemust remain patient. TheSoldier is gettinga new melee item called the Equalizer in addition to a bugle....

Pizza holds a very special place in my heart. In fact, pizza is a part of the list of inanimate objects I wantto do. Yes, I know, that sounds bad. I blame Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for that (glad I didn’t turn out as bad as thiscrazy byatch though) Anyway, I digress. I speak for the entire staff when I say that we are a part of one of the greatest communities ever....
As you may already know, it wasn’t just the overall look that was upgraded in the creation of the recently releasedSuper Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remixfor XBLA and PSN. The soundtrack also received a makeover, courtesy of the fan musicians atOverClocked Remix. How did fans end up working on this game release? It’s a pretty good story, andOriginal Sound Versionhas laid it all out for the curious. The article details how Capcom worked with the Web site and its members to edit and shape this soundtrack....
Here’s a thing you can watch if you want. This month’s episode was made for the Podtoid fans out there, and features appearences by our very own Anthony Burch and Brad Nicholson. And, in a somewhat less colorful capacity, my grandfather. Which is kind of neat, I guess. I’m beginning to get the hang of Flash and I think this episode turned out quite a bit better than the first one....
The Internet has been all abuzzwith the newsabout Sony’s $100 price cut on the PlayStation 3. I’d like to take a quick look at all the talk that’s been going on and what this might mean for Sony and the rest of us. First, let’s start with the news from those close to Sony — namely,ThreeSpeechandPlayStation.Blog. ThreeSpeech tries to keep itself apart from Sony, and only has a short blurb and a link to GamesIndustry....

I realize that it is the modus operandi of Koei to take a series and run with it for as long as humanly possible, but the fact that we’re still gettingNobunaga’s Ambitiongames after twenty years still blows my mind. Then again, I somehow manage to be fascinated with the WWII era and there are tons of games about that, so I suppose I can relate.The trailer doesn’t give us a whole lot to go on, as it lacks gameplay footage (but what’s with that weird bit of computer simulation stuff at the beginning?...
If you had suggested the idea of a portable NES to me back when I was deep in the throes of my romance with it back in 1986, I would have probably passed out at the idea, despite the fact there’s nothing portable about the size of the game cartridges. Now I have all my NES favorites emulated through my not-R4 for my Nintendo DS, but for those of you that don’t, perhaps you’d like a real NES handheld?...
Truth be told, what we know about the sequel toMetro 2033— other than that it’son the way— is limited. Today, well, that doesn’t really change much. Asdiscovered by@supererogatory, THQ has the domains lastlightgame.com, metro2033lastlight.com, and metrolastlight.com. It’s not much to go on, since THQ could move in a number of ways here. Perhaps it’s nothing more than the sequel getting the titleMetro 2033: Last Light, over the nameMetro 2034, which we had heard previously....
Rhythm Thief & the Emperor’s Treasureis near the top of my list of wanted 3DS games. I didn’t write ourpreviewof the game at TGS, but I did make time to play it, and I’m certain that it’s going to be great. This new trailer from Sega shows a lot of gameplay. I only got to play the song that you’ll hear at 1:45, but know that there’s a lot more to that song than what you see here....
A gay gamer with the gamertag “theGAYERgamer” hashad his name bannedfrom Xbox Live for being “offensive.” As we all know, Xbox Live is a hotbed of homophobia, but it seems that if enough bigots raise the alarm, they will be appeased. I have had a bad morning. Last night when i tried to sign into my xbox live account “thegayergamer” I was told that it had to be changed. I figured that it was just from people reporting it as an offensive name being that the greater Xbox live community isn’t exactly welcome to gay people, i spend a lot of time muting people on Halo3....
