Posted 7/19/10 1:38 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, Xbox 360
PopCap Games didn't wait for their mysteriously teased August 2 date to unload details on their long talked-about Xbox Live Arcade edition of "Plants vs. Zombies."

'Limbo' Review - Stuck In The Middle With You
Posted 7/19/10 12:00 pm ET by Russ Frushtick in Reviews, Xbox 360
"Limbo" is a tough sell. Looking at the above screenshot, you can see why. It's a game that only features blacks, whites and shades of gray. There aren't huge explosions and there's no online multiplayer. It's different, and different can be scary. And, in the case of "Limbo," different can make for a fantastic game.
'Call of Duty' Video Claims To Show Paid Online Options
Posted 7/19/10 11:05 am ET by Brian Warmoth in News, Xbox 360
Activision wants a way to charge for online "Call of Duty" play. Whether or not a video posted by a message board user Sunday represents a first look at what their strategy looks like remains to be seen, but the "Modern Warfare 2" player claims to have evidence that new options appeared on the Xbox Live menu.
A few years ago, some industrious fans of the Unreal engine came together and released a total conversion mod called "Alien Swarm." It was basically a top-down arcade shooter set in an infested alien base, reminiscent of Team17's "Alien Breed." Valve was so impressed with the team's work that they hired them to work on games like "Left 4 Dead 2," among other projects. But that wasn't all. They also had the team complete a redux of "Alien Swarm" using the Source engine. It's that very game that you'll be able to download, for free, today.
'Mafia 2' Incentivizing First-Time Buyers With Free DLC
Posted 7/16/10 6:30 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, PC, PS3, Xbox 360
"Mafia 2" will still come out on August 24, but if you buy the game new, 2K Games wants to reward you with some free DLC. In much the same way that EA has decided to build an extra ticket booth for used game buyers in front of multiplayer modes with the EA Sports Online Pass, 2K will be making one pack of DLC available exclusively to PlayStation 3 owners on day one.
The only hitch? The DLC won't be free if you don't have a one-time-only access code that ships with new games.

Sony Wants 3D Gaming Kept To 720p On The PlayStation 3
Posted 7/16/10 5:00 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, PS3
3D was a big part of the Sony E3 presentation this year, and "Killzone 3" will be at the front of the pack as far as titles they'll use to sell the PlayStation 3's display capabilities. Going forward, though, Sony wants developers to be careful with their resolution choices and are thus limiting everyone to 720p for 3D in their official recommendations.
'GoldenEye' On The 3DS Is Something Activision Would 'Love' To See
Posted 7/16/10 4:30 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in 3DS / DS, News
Activision has officially made Joss Stone a Bond girl for "James Bond 007: Blood Stone" and everything is full steam ahead for "GoldenEye 007" on the Wii. Could the N64's definitive shooter one day inspire a 3DS as remake as well, though? Activision would entertain that proposition.
