David Hayter, the voice of Solid Snake, explains why the Metal Gear movie died
Posted on June 2, 2010 | No CommentsThe Metal Gear movie is not going to happen. We've known this since January, but now some of the folks that were to have been involved are speaking out. Chief among the speaker-outers is David Hayter, the English voice actor of Solid Snake (and a successful Hollywood writer in his own right, having written (or co-written) such films as the first X-Men movie and The Watchmen ). Hayter says what we've all "known" for a while, that Sony Pictures and Konami simply couldn't agree on a number of things, including money. Hard to make a movie without money.

Prince of Persia didn’t do too well at the box office (and critics didn’t like it either)
Posted on June 1, 2010 | No CommentsAfter all that controversy, after all that hype, the Prince of Persia movie made only $30 million at the weekend. It was bested by Sex and the City 2, which, from what I understand, is pretty wretched. Nobody expected the movie to make Shrek-like money, but not beating rated R Sex and the City? Oh, dear.

How has the exciting world of technology changed since the last World Cup? Let us count the ways!
Posted on May 31, 2010 | No CommentsA little birdie told me that the World Cup begins in just a few weeks, on June 11, 2010, in South Africa. Four years prior saw Italy lift the trophy in Germany, beating France on penalties. Zinedine Zidane also headbutted Marco Materazzi that day—an immense event in Internet history. A lot of things have changed since that day in Berlin, a lot of things that will shock and amaze you. For example, did you know that Facebook was still only open to college and high school students the moment Fabio Grosso smashed the ball past Fabien Barthez? So, what else has changed between then and now?

Video: Short preview of Red Dead Redemption short film
Posted on May 28, 2010 | No CommentsCan we all agree that Red Dead Redemption is one of Rockstar’s finest games? It’s probably one of the best games of this generation, too. A 30-minute short film based on the game, directed by the guy (John Hillcoat) who directed The Road (good) and The Proposition (great), debuts tomorrow night on the Fox network [...] -
Video game addiction: The same as getting high on cocaine?
Posted on May 27, 2010 | No CommentsA UK therapist claims that two hours of playing video games gives the same high as doing a line of cocaine. Of course that raises the question of, well, what would you rather your kid do, bump lines off a dirty mirror or play Mario Kart before going to bed? What, too flip?

Ouch rumor: Project Natal will cost $150 stand-alone, part of $300 Xbox Arcade bundle this October
Posted on May 27, 2010 | No CommentsI sure hope for Microsoft's sake this isn't true. Word on the street is that Project Natal (which won't be the final name) will cost $150 and will launch in October. Considering Microsoft is aiming Natal at so-called casual gamers, what are the odds these people are going to shell out $150 to be able to play that paint-slinging game we've seen demoed over and over again?

Posted on May 21, 2010 | No CommentsIt would appear that Sonic 4 has been delayed until the “latter half of 2010.” That’s the bad news. The good news? One, there’s a new trailer. Two, it’ll also come out for the iPhone and iPod touch (in addition to the platforms we already knew about). Hear that, Nintendo? The full title of the game [...] -
Prima strategy guides now on Steam. Yup, Prima still makes strategy guides!
Posted on May 20, 2010 | No CommentsGot an e-mail from the good folks at Steam a few moments ago detailing a new feature y'all might be interested in. I mean, the only thing anyone is going to care about today is Google TV, but I'll do what I can to distract you from that for a moment. The deal is that Prima Guides are now available for use in-game. You know, via that shift+tab overlay thing.

You’re playing a lot of mobile games on the subway, aren’t you?
Posted on May 19, 2010 | No CommentsYou're on the subway on the way to work. It's not a long trip, maybe 15 to 20 minutes long if you're coming in from an outer borough. You have to kill the time somehow lest you be alone in your thoughts for a few moments. What do you do? If we're to believe a new survey, then you' may well whip out your phone to play a video game. Back in the day, people would have had a paperback or magazine handy. Times, they are a....
