“What?†You scream, your voiced trembling with vitriol “The game’s not even out yet, and they’ve announced DLC? Why the f*ck isn’t it on the disc?†That I can’t answer, but before you go on paying full price for incomplete games and that DLC ruining gaming, know that EA and Visceral haven’t announced a release date so it could still …
Yep, it’s this whole thing again. Russian news channel, Russia Today, has aired a report that links the tragic Domodedovo Airport terrorist bombings to Modern Warfare 2. At the same time they have reconfirmed my conviction that humanity is, in fact, completely retarded.

I know I’m not the only one who can’t download the Bulletstorm demo at the moment, my reason is lack of real Internet but others may be balking at the size (1Gb) or they may just be PS3 players who don’t have a demo right now. Well thankfully for us CVG has posted up a bunch of awesome screenshots from …

And yes I totally get the inherent irony in my bitching about it and yet perpetuating the rumour-mill. Whatever – think of it as a public service announcement veiled in a thin layer of impatience. This new “official pic†comes courtesy of Kotaku, who …
So as you all know, the Bulletstorm demo landed on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 yesterday and we made sure we downloaded it to give our impressions to those of you who couldn’t. Last year, Gavin managed to get some hands-on time with Bulletstorm at E3 2010 and boy, oh boy was I jealous that I had somewhere else to …
Yesterday we ran a Twitter competition where you had to tweet the statement “I want Dead Space 2 #lazygamers†to stand a chance of winning a copy of Dead Space 2 for whichever platform floats your boat. The response was pretty impressive for a Twitter competition and I have just tallied all the entries (minus Geoff and Mik who weren’t …
