L.A. Noire used a very advance motion capture setup for the detective drama that was able to capture anything the face did. Best of all, it would capture when the actors would screw up their lines too. Nothing creepier than a computer graphic tongue getting flicked out of someone's mouth. Gross.

The tough-as-nails La-Mulana remake is now available on Steam for $14.99 if you dare to venture into the deepest, darkest depths of your gaming talent. As one of the best remakes and games I've ever played, I strongly recomme...

Here's a cute trailer for the coming conclusion of the epic LEGO Harry Potter saga, LEGO Harry Potter: Years-5-7.
