This trailer showing Splinter Cell: Blacklist's cooperative mode reminds me that, of all the things to get me interested in the game, it sure isn't the single-player campaign. Spies vs. Mercs and co-op, on the other hand, ha...

Yesterday, the Skullgirls Facebook page announced that the "Slightly Different Edition" patch was finally available on the Xbox 360 version of the game. The PlayStation 3 version was patched in November of last year...

Throughout its relatively short existence, the upcoming South Park game has seemed to get the short end of the stick. From developer layoffs to a bankrupt publisher, South Park: The Stick of Truth can't seem to...

As a life-long Star Trek fan, I was skeptical about the reboot. However, my worries were unfounded as the 2009 film quickly became one of my favorites in the series, and it's attention to what came before while paving a new p...

In coming to PlayStation Network, Stealth Bastard needed a new name. And so the developers took to the Internet at large to brainstorm, because it seemed like a good idea at the time. While I'm sorry to say that Des...

The latest Star Trek release has its fair share of problems -- chief among them being that it's kind of boring -- but PC users are in for an altogether more shocking problem. The online co-op, arguably the entire point of th...

The Sacred series is never going to give Diablo a run for its money, but it's always had its own unique charm. It's a fairly standard dungeon crawler with its own element of silly humor, and that's been enough to earn it a pl...

Activision sent a box of those Skylanders Giants Happy Meal toys over. Bereft of anything interesting to do, I decided to review them. I didn't really review them, though. I just rambled sarcastically while playing with toys.  Videogame journalism is real.

In lieu of partying or whatever it is college kids are supposed to be doing, I decided that my number one priority this spring break would be to to replay Spec Ops: The Line. I joined the Spec Ops party a bit late, but t...

Spelunky is coming to PlayStation 3 and PS Vita! Announced today during an event at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, the randomly-generated platformer is set to arrive on Sony systems this summer. Developer De...

Having just picked up the PC port of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, I'm a bit late to the party, but not unfashionably so. There is, after all, still the pending 3DS version of the rather wonderful kart racer, to s...

Yep, the special edition version of Splinter Cell: Blacklist comes with an R/C plane. Kind of like the RC-XD that came with the Black Ops Special Edition, but more...aerial. Priced at $169.99 and set to release with the game ...

Sony showed off Retro Affect's upcoming Vita/PS3 title Snapshot at CES this week. This nice-looking PC port uses photography as a puzzle element. A robot named Pic has a camera that he can use to snap pictures of objects in t...

Over three years later, it appears as if Sidhe isn't done with Shatter, as the game has just been announced for the iPad. Sadly, this won't be a universal app or anything, and they really mean "just the iPad." If you haven't ...

As much as we've been talking up Sine Mora, I figured one more post couldn't hurt. The shoot-'em-up has finally released on PlayStation Network for both Vita and PlayStation 3 as a $9.99 download. These are separate versions...

Next week, THQ is set to unleash the "Full Package" edition of Saints Row: The Third. A re-issuing of the 2011 game, it also packs in every bit of additional content released, including missions, vehicles and costumes. You'l...

As I pointed out in my original Sleeping Dogs review, the game sorely lacked ghosts. Now there are ghosts. Rejoice.

"And yeah, its time for another drink..." Dylan Jobe, president of Lightbox Interactive, posted on Twitter, Tuesday. Sony made a gamble when it invested in Lightbox Interactive to make a competitive multiplayer shooter called...

I have some pretty vivid memories of spending entire days playing Sonic Adventure 2 on both the Dreamcast and GameCube. I can clearly remember rollin' around at the speed of sound. I had places to go. I followed my rainbow. T...

The latest episode of Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin'? premiered at PAX last week before being uploaded to GameTrailers. I held off posting it until now out of anger and resentment from not being able to attend the show. It definit...

Launching just seven months ago on consoles, it seems that Street Fighter X Tekken never really caught on in the fighting game community. Some would argue this was a result of the quality of the game itself, but a bit of cont...

I guess the title says it all, but in terms of why you might care, I'm really digging the Starhawk soundtrack composed by Christopher Lennertz. It's a great combination of gritty western ambiance with traditional orchestra. S...

Creepy religious symbolism: cool. Survival horror: awesome. What happens when you put them together? Heck if I know, but TopWare Interactive is uncovering this mystery with its newest title, Sacrilegium. Known best for its po...

When I heard the long-awaited next-gen Sly Cooper sequel would be put in the hands of Sanzaru Games, I lost all interest. Considering Sly 1 & 2 are two of my favorite games, that's a lot of interest to lose. But, what do ...

Because it's 2012, and every action game ever needs co-op, Spec-Ops: The Line will receive downloadable cooperative missions. No word if the entire campaign will be co-opified (a word that is totally not made u...

Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 was considered a letdown by many longtime fans of the series, mostly due to the fact that its physics were not similar enough to the original Genesis titles. Part of the benefit of an episodic ...

Konami has announced today that patches are in the works for both Silent Hill Downpour and Silent Hill HD Collection. It will address a number of issues found in both games.  "Understanding the issues some users are expe...

"Rain chili dogs" is Sonic speak for "release date" (that cartoon influenced me to eat way too many chili dogs back in the day). Just like the first Sonic 4 title, Episode 2 will be coming out for every platform under the sun...

Shank 2 continues the tale of a man named Shank by providing more killing, more death, and more over-the-top gore that was a staple of the original title. At its core, however, is a side-scrolling brawler reminiscent of old...

Ok Europe. I know sometimes you guys get screwed over on release dates, but how can you complain when you get awesome limited editions like the two for Saint Seiya: Sanctuary Battle? The upcoming musou-sty...

As the kind of person who seemingly keeps trying to find the pulse of pop culture rectally, I sometimes miss really cool things. Take Nathan Jurevicius' Scarygirl comic, which has built up a huge fan base over the last ten ye...

This latest trailer for Syndicate is pretty damn exciting. It's a sparse overview of the title's cooperative mode which lets you team up with three other operatives on assignments deemed to difficult for a lone agent to...
