‘Splosion Man Coming to XBLA, not a Joke.

By Geoffrey Tim
April 3, 2009
in :  Gaming
1

In amongst the all the April Fool’s sophistry that perpetuated itself through recent news was the announcement of a new game by Twisted Pixel Games, creators of “The Maw”. Heralded as a 2.5D action platformer "based around the simple concept of ‘splosions and the ridiculousness that ensues," it sounded like a pretty awkward attempt at humour. Turns out the joke’s …

I would like to apologise up front to our female readers but I just couldn’t resist. It’s all in Dutch so I don’t know what they are saying but the idea behind it is pretty obvious.

Simon Wells from Activision has been chatting to MCVUK about their plans and expectations for the future and I have to say that I think he may have been smoking a bit of the giggly twig.

Well, that’s what one of the Raven developers says anyway, the question is, do we believe him? X-Men Origins: Wolverine is promising to finally break the curse that has been bestowed on many a movie based game over the last couple of years, the last being The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay.

Seriously Odd Korean Xbox 360 Advert

By Nick De Bruyne
April 3, 2009
in :  Gaming
2

Sony usually wear the crown when it comes to strange adverts for consoles, but this incredibly odd advertisement for the Xbox 360 from Korea proves that Microsoft is just as capable at creating some strange adverts of their own.

I have been quite interested in this new Batman title, but haven’t actually seen any gameplay whatsoever until now and my initial impressions are that the game has potential to be really great, but …
