Believe it or not, some of the developers of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix *breathe* read our 1 Minute Madness review of their game and decided to drop us an email. Larry Oji, the Assistant Soundtrack Director for the title was kind enough to let us in on the fact that the entire soundtrack was fan-made and can …

by Brett Cocking I have never really liked RTS games, mostly because I couldn’t get the hang of the speed at which I was required to play in order to be competitive. This worried me when I got hold of Endwar, if they couldn’t find a way to slow the game down while keeping to the essence of an RTS, …

by Mario Anarmoulis Reviewing sequels is always difficult; comparisons to the original will and must be made as it’s the easiest way to convey what the game is all about, but in doing so the game loses its sense of uniqueness. The original Motorstorm made a big impact with stunning visuals and crazy gameplay which helped push sales over the …

The more and more I see of this game the more and more I want to play it. This video, showing some multiplayer gameplay footage just shows how incredibly well this game has come along. The action looks intense and the visuals are absolutely stunning to say the least. Titles like this make me smile whenever I see them because …

World Reminder: Games are supposed to be FUN

iHateFunBanner.jpg [WARNING: Excessive use of bad language and violence against common household items] Anyone who has had a taste of online gaming will know that there are some seriously strange people out there. Join any American game however and you will usually be treated to an absolute barrage of high-pitched, whiny, disrespectful little monsters who do nothing but scream and shout about how they are going to own you and how everytime you owned them was only because of lag, luck or a whatever else they can think of. I have posted a video after the jump that is not what I would call "office friendly" as it involves a young american kid who has possibly the worst anger management problem that I have ever seen and his language will not impress your boss, so you have been warned. It really got me wondering about these kids, at the risk of sounding like all of our parents I ask: What has happened to the kids of today? ...The guy above might seem a little familiar to you, it's because there was a previous video up a while back of him playing Halo 3.... Games are supposed to be about having fun but it seems that so many people have just gotten so obsessed with proving their amazing skills that the concept of gaming for fun seems to be lost altogether. It's a sad day to see a young person having such an incredibly bad time with a game when we all know that we should all be relaxing and enjoying it.... He spills coke, further breaks his headset, cracks his Halo 3 poster and in what must be the most amazing moment of self-pwnage, actually manages to get the microphone of his headset shoved halfway down his throat (See it to believe it - 5min 18 secs in).... I myself have been having some frustration problems with control schemes and online issues with some of the more recent games but to take it out like these guys do is utterly ridiculous.... This sort of play is getting out of hand to the point that there are a few games that I have at the moment that I am playing online with public international matches because I am so tired of the guys who want nothing but to win, that I would rather suffer with a second of lag and play with a bunch of Japanese folks who just want to have some fun. It really does make a statement that I would rather play with people that I don't understand, with a second of lag, rather than have to sit through round after round of players who only use cheap tactics, camping and assorted other methods so that they can top the scoreboards. Thanks to all of those people, I just stopped playing a lot of the games that I really enjoyed and have now resorted to only playing with close friends that I know I can relax with.... It means that if I want to play online with random people, I don't get to choose between the hardcore no-fun bunch or the relaxed games just trying to have some fun. So the next time you are playing a game and being a douche-bag, try to remember that it's all about having fun. If your concept of fun is sitting in a corner surrounded by trip mines, up a hill with a sniper rifle and every sort of cheap trick you can think of to get to the top of the scoreboards, then you need to have a slap sent your way because nobody likes it and no one will go to be thinking about how cool you are.

Ryu, Chun-Li, Guile, and Zangief have been given the Sackboy treatment, well in the above image anyway as these costumes have yet to actually be confirmed by Media Molecule, Capcom or Sony. RipTen found them on a Spanish PlayStation community site. As such, there’s no word on when they’ll be released, and how much they might cost. Last Updated: December …
