Zero Punctuation : Aliens vs Predator

escapist-Yes! Another awesome review.

Final, glistening Super Street Fighter IV character revealed


joystiq-Capcom has revealed the final new character for Super Street Fighter IV, and he's ... well, he's a giant dude covered in oil. Like, Hakan actually oils himself up before each round. This has the aesthetic effect of being extraordinarily off-putting, and the functional effect of allowing him to slide across the stage as if it were the Crocodile Mile. And since he's a grappling-type character, you get these really great squishing noises whenever he grabs another character.

GDC 2010: OnLive Release Date and Monthly Fee Announced

vgchartz-Yes, it's not vaporware, and it's releasing sooner than you think

After last GDC's surprise announcement, the new online platform OnLive is close to be released. The company announced that the service will launch for PC and Mac on June 17 in the United States, with a monthly fee of $14.95, according to the official site. Of course, that doesn't include the games you'll have to buy to play. More info here.


Final Fantasy XIII Sells 450,000 Units in the Americas on Day One


vgchartz
-A very strong start for the latest Final Fantasy title with two thirds of sales on PS3.

Preliminary day one sales are in for Final Fantasy XIII, and with around 290,000 units sold on PS3 and 160,000 units sold on Xbox360 it looks like the title is a success. With recent reports of 5 million units shipped worldwide, that likely breaks down to two million in Japan and around 1.5 million in each of the Americas and Other Regions (Europe, Asia, Africa, Middle East, Australia).

A day one figure of 450,000 should increase by around 40-50% by the end of the week meaning that around 45% of the initial shipment would have sold through in week one, with the rest of the shipment likely to last through to the end of April. The game launches in other regions on Friday and VGChartz expects a similar figure of around 500,000 units to be sold in the first couple of days with the PS3 version leading by at least 2:1.

Music Games + REAL Instruments = Power Gig, Due Fall 2010


vgchartz-So you're a Guitar Hero. Can you play any real music? Most likely: probably not much.

One game is looking to change that when it releases this fall on both PS3 and Xbox 360. Power Gig: Rise of the Sixstring has a bit of a dorky name, but it's aiming for the sky. By taking the Guitar Hero/Rock Band "play this song yourself" mentality and throwing a real instrument into the mix, you have an entirely more immersing (and educational) experience. Read on and ROCK ON!!!

The Five Most Badass Japanese Game Designers

O.C.Weekly-No question. These guys aren't just badasses, they're gaming gods. Here's why:

Rock Band to Release Cartman's "Poker Face"


comedycentral-It was announced today that four Lady Gaga songs are being released in the Rock Band Music Store for Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii. And in a classic case of lead-burying, it was additionally revealed that Eric Cartman's version of Gaga's "Poker Face" would also be made available in the store. Of course, as exciting as this is, I'm pretty sure that if Lady Gaga herself ever sings Cartman's cover of her song, it will cause a temporal loop and tear apart the very fabric of space-time.

The Definition of Insanity

explicitgamer-It’s time for change in the video game industry. Graphics are getting better, gameplay is evolving, and expectations are rising. The following games need to take that next step to stay relevant in the ever changing gaming landscape.

Most Expensive Video Games: Were They Worth the Money?


nydailynew-Video games like “Halo 3” and “Modern Warfare 2” have made headlines for the amount of money they earned, but the Hollywood-sized budgets needed to create them are just as noteworthy. And like the box office blockbuster hopefuls, there is no guarantee that a huge budget will equal a hit – there is a bloated failure here for every critical success.

Activision-Blizzard has Plans for Multiple Diablo Sequels


It’s been close to a decade since the release of the last Diablo title, and Diablo III lies somewhere along the corner, with hopeful fans looking at a 2011 release at the earliest. With Activision at the helm, it comes as no surprise that the company may opt to milk the franchise for all its worth, not just with Diablo III, but subsequent expansion packs or sequels. Read on.
