RA3 Beta now open
So yesterday EA let loose the dogs of war, or whatever, and opened up about 2000 beta accounts for those of us who purchased the CNC3 Expansion: Kane’s Wrath. Fury and I are still waiting on the account keys and there’s no way to tell where in the list we currently sit. More [...]

Modded XBOX 360′s Running Leaked New Dashboard
Wow, seems our black hat crew is at it again. I ran across this on you tube today. It seems someone in the UK has gotten a Modded XBOX 360 to work with a leaked copy of the new dashboard that was announced at E3 this past week. **Update** After watching this several times, I [...]

You too can own a Gears of War 2 Lancer? But why?
Yes, you did read the title right and we’re just as amazed/shocked/confused about it. If you’re willing to spend the equivalent of $130 for a special edition of a game, then you’re clearly off your rocker to put it bluntly. But being able to own your own lancer? That is quite a tempting offer.
Yukon, Oklahoma MGC a Success!
(Updated 07-27-08) Had a Great time at MGC Yukon, the Staff there were great! My only complaint: Big Black Tent, in the Hot Oklahoma Sun in Mid Day. I think we could have attracted more people if it was a little cooler, and I think we needed to let people know a little more [...]

Well apparently I was wrong because according to IGN, and Joystiq those rumblings are true. Kevin Feige, President of Production at Marvel Studios when asked if a new Marvel Vs Capcom game [...]

Get ready to wage a crazy war with the Soviets, Allies, and the Empire of the Rising Sun in our online-only multiplayer Beta [...]
Photo-realistic Crysis?
Boy I Hope this is a damn joke? I remember when Crysis first came out on the PC, I was totally bummed out. I spent a good 500 bucks in upgrading my PC to handle it, and when it came out my PC played at a crawling pace. The graphics then were so intense. So [...]
RED ALERT 3, a few comments
So the sequel to one of the most revered and popular RTS games of all time was announced back on February 14th, dubbed “Red Thursday”. Fuck Valentines and hearts and chocolate and fluffy ass huggy bears I’ve got war to wage, bitches. Work began back in late 2004 (though imho they should have gotten off [...]

Gears of War 2 crashes Xbox 360 and Resistance 2 lack polish
Seems the folks over at 1UP had a chance to demo GOW2 and Resistance 2. Demos with both games didn’t go as planned. Seems that Cliffy B, was demonstrating a new level from his upcoming Gears of War 2 when all of the sudden the XBOX 360 froze and crashed. You can see that [...]
Portal: Still Alive’ Already On PC
We were all very excited to hear that Portal: Still Alive would soon be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace, but we’re somewhat disappointed to find out that it’s just a map pack with no GlaDOS, no story line, and it’s already available on PC.
