Good rumors from the Destination Playstation conference. Per some sources at the retailer show, alongside the Gran Turismo 5 Prologue launch on April 15th will be a redesign of the Playstation Store.
The new Playstation Store is rumored to look a lot like the SingStore (that’s it in the picture) and have an improved navigation system. [...]

All three songs are included in the hidden list found by laconic this week that everyone thinks is Harmonix’s future-song-list. The full [...]

The limited edition version of Rainbow Six Vegas 2 gives you … hold on this is *so exciting* … pro tip videos, frag dolls, and a keychain (WTF?). If you can’t contain yourself either the box will be on store shelves March 18th for an extra $10. As if $60 wasn’t enough already, now we’re [...]

Three new downloadable songs for Rock Band this week. This week is old school punk week, with all three bands contributing to the earliest sound of punk. All are the real things too, no covers this week.

The Clash’s “Complete Control“
The Police’s “Truth Hits Everybody“
The Ramones’ “Teenage Lobotomy“

If you’re a punk fan there’s also a 3-pack [...]

Only one PC game in 2007 sold over a million units (and it’s name is Warcraft). The PC game take of $911 million is a lot of money, but console games had a record year and total sales of $17.94 billion. Another comparison, the #10 console game sold twice as many units as the #2 [...]

Turok gets one thumb up and several hours from me the last few nights. Gameplay is smooth and fast and the dinosaurs aren’t as tough to deal with as I expected, but they’re still a fun distraction that can be used for a bit of tactical advantage during a big multiplayer game. Here’s a quick [...]

The guys over at College Humor TV aren’t very good at Guitar Hero (it’s OK guys, neither am I). To make up for their poor playing they’re going to be mopping up the mess and leftovers from the Guitar Hero rockstars. Check out the Roadie Hero trailer above.

Devil May Cry 4 looks like one of the best games (other than Super Smash Bros Brawl) there is to wait around for. These trailer (above) and gameplay (that’s HD, low-def here) videos are leaving me drooling to grab it on Tuesday (Feb 5th).
Gameplay is far more important to me than graphics or storyline (Gah! [...]

The internet stinks sometimes, but this isn’t a spam-blog or an ugly made by a friend-of-a-friend site. What They Play is a professional site built for parents, and it’s about video games.
The site reviews video games for all systems (Wii, PS3, Xbox 360, PC, & older consoles) and gives each a rating. None of these [...]

Rockstar Games gave a sneak peak to the elite of the new Grand Theft Auto yesterday and the internet is all abuzz with it’s fancy new bells and whistles. According to this article the new game features faster load times, a souped up physics system, and the ability to get totally freaking drunky pants. [...]

Quick, shoot! It’s a zebra … and a field … ?
Far Cry 2 is months off but Ubisoft is already bragging about their new graphics engine. It really is the most phenomenal-looking, uh, grass I’ve ever seen in a game. The 45-seconds of scenery contains no gameplay though. Keep watching for more trailers as they [...]

The top-selling Blu-ray player by a huge margin is Sony’s PS3. That should be good news to all current owners, since the PS3 is (supposedly) the only Blu-ray player currently on the market that’s compatible with the Blu-ray 2.0 specifications. If you’re currently an owner of another Blu-ray player, suck it up, the bad news [...]

Hi Kyle, sorry to shoot the messenger but we’re tired of hearing about delays.
Sony apologizes, via some poor guy named Kyle, for more LittleBigPlanet delays. First it was late 2007, then spring 2008. Sony still hasn’t spilled the beans on an official target date, but rumors now say September’ish 2008. Take some small joy in [...]
