This is the first MW2 teaser image that has been released for the game. It’s a lot better than that trailer they showed last night at GDC. What you see below is from actual gameplay. This is looking better and better every day. Can’t wait til 11-10-09!

This is the BIG conference they have at GDC every year. HHG did an interview with Jay from THQ. Good stuff!

The MMORPG push for consoles is full blast right now. There’s a rumor that Blizzard is in talks with Microsoft about releasing MMORPG games on the next Xbox. There’s also a rumor that they are talking with Sony who is about to release 2 big MMORPGs next year with The Agency and DC Universe. Whether Blizzard is planning to bring new IP’s to consoles or further infect the world with more WoW goodness won’t be known until a much later date. As always, chalk these under rumors and breathe easy.

Word on the streets is that Sony will be releasing an Infamous demo on PSN this May 8th! Wow, that’s it. Nothing else to say.

Renebarahona’s youtube channel is full of Wii games running in HD, how did she do it? Emulation is how, Dolphin is a Gamecube and Wii emulator for PC that turns those last gen graphics into current gen. If your thinking of running Dolphin you better have a rig with at least a dual core cpu and a graphics card that supports Pixel Shader 2.0. Make sure to watch it in HD and go to her channel for videos of  Mario cart and other Wii games in HD.

Yesterday Eidos gave Square Enix the go ahead on their February buyout bid. After a Eidos shareholders meeting, a healthy majority of 85% approved the deal. With the deal gone through it still won’t be until May 6th that Square gets their hands on the Tomb Raider publisher.

What do you think will come out of this merger? A Tomb Raider rpg? One thing is for sure it will make for some interesting games.

Here’s all my mistakes. Laugh it up! Play it til the end. If it pauses,it’s part of the reel.

I’ve been sent a few messages from angry parents saying that all videos games are about sex and that I’m an “evil person” for reviewing them and posting them. So I thought I would address the topic of sex and video games and give my personal opinion on the topic.

This trailer shows the bikes and quads of Fuel. I wonder if there is customization?

Put film making into the hands of the people and you get good quality stuff. If he had only added better sound effects for punching and kicking. I might have to remix this video.

More Fuel videos for you to drool over. More to come later!
