Remember a while back we posted about the upcoming Carmen Electra pole dancing game for the 360? Well apparently for some unkown reason no one has picked up the development, production or distribution rights yet… However the inventors are still keen on the idea and are looking for someone with a bit of vision to bankroll this one. So far …

I actually completely understand how Yahtzee feels on this one. Sonic was one of my gaming heroes when I was growing up and over the years he has just become a complete disappointment. It reminds me of the day when I realised that those football players were not putting up their hands to let the referee know that they were …

The November NPD sales stats are in and it’s not good news for Sony.  For clarification NPD is the company that tracks the American console sales and November is always the second most important month of the year in regards to console sales figures… So how did it go for everyone?

On Saturday, we posted up an article about a price increase for the Xbox 360 and it’s software that will come into effect in January 2009. Local gamers are fuming and everybody is cringing or complaining over the concept of paying a thousand Rand for triple A titles. We got on the phone with Microsoft’s Product and Marketing Manager, John …

2008 has been one of the better years for gaming, I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s been one of the best but the last 3 months have been very kind to us. When we look back and see Fallout 3, Fable 2, Gears 2 and COD5 we see that we have been spoilt, but with games reaching …

That’s right, according to Activision executives from a game summit that is currently going on, the new Tony Hawk title is going to not make the use of our hands. Everyone seems to be jumping on the peripheral bandwagon and to be honest I didn’t think it was necessary. I really grew to dislike the Tony Hawk series and found …

Another Prince of Persia video has been released, this time showing a montage of the gameplay elements that we can all expect from the new refreshed title. I think that the game is looking really fun and to be honest, it really needs to be because a lot of gamers have already exhausted a lot of their resources on buying the plethora of games that were released in the recent weeks. I think that Prince of Persia will have a lot of appeal with regards to new and casual gamers and from the looks of things, is set to be quite an enjoyable experience. Prince of Persia hits local shelves this Friday.

The latest sales charts in from the UK have some interesting stories to tell. Call of Duty 5 is proving that the public doesn't really care who is developing the game and whether or not it is based in World War 2 again. The game appeals to many people and is accessible enough that a lot of consumers are all too happy to pick it up and give it a go. In the same vein, I am not too happy about the fact the Need for Speed: Undercover is sitting in second place. The fact that the game is still getting good sales is only going to let EA know more than ever that they can take huge shortcuts and make a really low quality game and still get away with massive sales due to a recognisable brand. What is really interesting is that Resistance 2, the supposedly almighty PS3 exclusive is only sitting at number 10. Why is that? Well, I was actually very interested to find out that Resistance 2 had only been on sale for a day when the chart was released, which means that the day one sales were probably looking pretty strong. It seems that the UK is also experiencing distribution issues so that may factor into the charts as well. It is interesting to see that so many other recent popular titles are not in the top 10 although it was interesting to see that even though it is so far down the line, Mario Kart Wii is sitting at a very respectable 4th place.
