"Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned" lets you do so much more than a man like hero Johnny Klebitz would ever do. I've finished the game. Here's my "review": Read more...

This morning's announcement that "Punch-Out!" is coming to the Wii this May reminded me that I know very little about the game. The boxart and trailer confirm that King Hippo, Glass Joe and Von Kaiser are back for this one. For other details, however, I had to turn to the ESRB... Read more...

punch-out

Read this and weep, "Killzone 2" fans. This is no trick. I have completed 6% of the game without playing a minute of it! Or so my PS3 thinks. No, you do not get 6% credit for simply putting the game's disc in the PS3. Instead, this is a weird side effect of me having completed the game using a pre-released edition of the game, earning Trophies for it, but apparently not having my stats or save files transfer over properly.

No one's healing anyone yet in "Killzone 2." Read more...

In addition to being one of PSP's best looking games, "Resistance Retribution" allows gamers to sync a Sixaxis controller and play "Retribution" like any other "Resistance" game, a feature we've learned does not extend to multiplayer. Read more...

"I'm sure there's some overlap, but I really feel like what we're doing here is pretty different. This is a space shooter; there just happens to be thousands of players at the same time. Now those other [space MMOs] might all be very similar, and they might be more competition for themselves. ... But the reality is, we don't know what's going to happen. There are no space games anymore -- why is that? Maybe it's because nobody plays space games anymore, but we don't care. [laughs] We just made a game that we really want to play. We built this so that no matter how big it is, it doesn't have to be a million-user game for it to be successful for us to run it for a long, long time."

-- Scott Brown, president of "Jumpgate Evolution" developer NetDevil, on competing with "Star Trek Online" and other space-themed MMOs during a demo with MTV Multiplayer at New York Comic Con.
