Castlevania is one of those franchises that have always just been there, and inspired many other titles over the years as well. In true Castlevania style, we follow the story of one of those dashing Belmont fellas. Bubba, Bertha and Billy-Bob Belmont weren’t available for this new Castlevania, so they sent Gabriel instead. Even better, he brought a whole third …
Polyphony Digital boss, Kaz Yamauchi, has stated in the latest version of the PSM3 magazine that GT5 may at times drop below the promised 60fps and for that he begs your forgiveness.

I’ve said before that I am quite excited about Kinect, I think it’s going to be a fun family experience and I can see it getting a lot of use over this coming holiday season but if I received one for free I promise you I wouldn’t be acting like the Oprah audience did. To catch you up quickly, as …

Everyone used to hate them a few years ago because of icky DRM practices and their overbearing corporate identity. Now, it seems, they’re earning back a …
We don’t normally post about dancing games, mainly because we are all really manly men who wouldn’t be caught dead doing something as silly as dancing on camera. But there is no way I could pass this up once I saw the video, I present to you Devon Stanton from Megarom demonstrating how manly and awesome Just Dance 2 is …
Because, for some weird reason, there are lots of news pieces floating about today that are all inextricably connected with the digital distribution of games. We’re talking about full games for digital distribution, and not downloadable content, which we’ve already seen isn’t as big as one would think. So it’s safe to say I’ve felt a great disturbance in the …
A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
