Driver gets caught with 100 copies of Gears of War 2/Fable 2

Rthief.gifodney Gray, a driver for a security firm that makes, packages and distributes game discs, was stopped by detectives for an apparent mountain of driving offenses after they saw him leaving his room with a red carpet bag. You can guess from the title what they found. Not only that but when they searched his room, they found even more. Destructoid reports that: "Rodney Gray was pulled over by detectives after they spotted him leaving his room with a red carpet bag. Gray ironically worked in security for Technicolor, a firm which packages, produces, stores and distributes game discs. When the reckless roadster was stopped, he was found with 31 of these discs in his bag. The cops went back to Gray's room, where they found more games and DVDs that had been liberated from Technicolor, including copies of Gears of War 2 and Fable 2. The would-be criminal kingpin quickly broke down and admitted that he'd been going nicking from work and was selling the discs on." Naughty, naughty Rodney, your little money making scheme on the side finally blew up in his face. Does anyone else think that the security division may need to hire some security?

KOTOR Fans Rejoice – New Star Wars MMO Officially announced

By Nick De Bruyne

There have been rumours flying around the net for quite some time now that Bioware is working on a new MMO (Massive Multiplayer Online) game based on the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) franchise. Well good news is upon us all because it has finally been made official. The new MMO will be titled Star Wars: The Old Republic and will be the first MMO for BioWare, who are famous for their incredible role playing titles. First details have been released, more after the jump. Now, this must be due to the World of Warcraft fad but if you have looked at the header image for the article then you will see that the graphics have been stylised into a more cartoony look. Now you can put me into the same boat as all those people who are bitching about Diablo III's new look, but I really feel like the KOTOR series was not one that would ever work well with that kind of look. What was wrong with the realistic Sci-Fi approach that they had to the visuals. Now my character has to run around with a lightsaber handle the size of a small mammal. If you want to read more about it, check the source below because IGN has an exclusive feature with details and more about the game.

Just when you thought it was safe to scratch Alan Wake of your list it rears it’s head once again… and in quite some fashion. If the scene inside the diner is ingame, as it appears to be, then I have to say that this game is once again looking awesome, but then again it can look as good as …

Lazygamer Exclusive: Far Cry 2 Developers Show No Love for Uwe Boll

By Nick De Bruyne

Just recently, we had the opportunity to sit down with Far Cry 2 developers Creative Director, Clint Hocking and Producer, LP Pharand of Ubisoft Montreal. Now we all know that Uwe Boll has already made a Far Cry movie based on the first game and although it is yet to be released in a country other than Germany, we don't really need to think too hard to realize that it will probably be a stinky pile of donkey dung. Well, that's if Uwe Boll's track record is anything to go by. So what do the Far Cry 2 developers think of Uwe Boll and do they think that the movie may drag their upcoming release down with it? Find out more after the jump in this Lazygamer worldwide exclusive. So my question to the developers was the following: What do you think about the upcoming Far Cry movie and do you think that with Uwe Bolls track record, the movie may damage the refreshed brand that has been created for Far Cry 2. LP Pharand explained to me that the rights to the movie were bought by Uwe Boll's company long before Ubisoft had bought the rights for the game from Crytek, which means that they and Ubisoft actually had nothing do with it. That doesn't mean that it won't hurt the brand though does it. The developers were very confident and stated clearly that they are proud of what they have created with Far Cry 2 and don't think that the movie could negatively affect the sequel, which is very different to the original in terms of locations and story. So are they against the idea of a Far Cry movie, or even possibly a movie for Far Cry 2? LP Pharand, had the following to say: "We aren't against the idea of a Far Cry movie, we are against the idea of Uwe Boll making a Far Cry movie." Ouch! There you have it ladies and gentlemen and I don't blame him for saying that at all. Uwe Boll has terrorized the movie industry for quite some time now and has yet to make a movie that could even be considered anything other than laughable. Check out the trailer for Uwe Boll's Far Cry Movie and see for yourself.

As far as I can tell there was never a solid release date for the console version of Sacred 2 but it has always been assumed that we will be seeing it before Christmas this year. Unfortunately this has proven to be a false hope as the developers have announced this morning that they are now aiming for a 2009 …

Sony save themselves and damn you with new Terms Of Service

I wouldn’t blame you from not trusting Sony anymore after reading the changes to their new terms of service for their PLAYSTATION(R)Network accounts. In a move that pretty much detaches them from any kind of responsibility on almost all fronts and allows them to essentially “employ” you for free by having full access to any user created content you may …
