Despite the game’s poor retail performance, I rather enjoyed Remedy’s Xbox 360 exclusive psychological thriller. Sure, it may have been a bit repetitive, but it made up for that with exceptional atmosphere, and some interesting story-telling. If you, like I am, are still intrigued about Wake’s fate, you’ll be happy to know that his story will be coming to an …
THQ boss Brian Farrell believes that console games will drop from their current $60 price points to a much more reasonable $30-$40, and may even become free to play.

One of the coolest things about the PS3 is that you could pretty much plug in any HID compatible gamepad, and it would work just fine with your PS3.

Hooray! More rumours! More HD re-releases! More reasons for us to spend money on games we probably already own in some other form! Isn’t capitalism great? Kotaku has reported that a French gaming website, along with a bunch of online retailers, have let slip information on a Mortal Kombat HD collection (Kollection?) as well as a Prince of Persia collection. …
I’m a fan of the idea of Kinect and I enjoyed my time with it at E3 earlier this year, however these first 3 adverts that are being aired to start building the hype of Kinect are frustratingly boring. None of them looks the least bit entertaining and will do nothing to convince core gamers that the Kinect isn’t a …
Gamestop has made an oopsy by outing a new version of the Wii-mote that Nintendo hasn’t yet confirmed. The Wii Remote Plus is going to be bundled with FlingSmash and while Nintendo are now admitting a new controller is coming they aren’t saying exactly what the difference will be or when it will arrive.
