I'll be frank and honest... I've never played a Metal Gear game, and I've never wanted to. I tried one out about 7 years ago at my cousins house. He was all into the game, and I just didn't get it. MGS4 is now coming, and people are hailing it ...

If there is any inkling of truth here, this is just downright devious.
While the $100 price cut of the 60GB PS3 may seem like a good gesture and an attempt to move some stock, SCEE president David Reeves tells us a different story. He told GameIndustry.biz:
Well, [U.S. customers are not ...

So the big three conferences are over. What did you think? There weren't any ground rumbling announcements. No 360 or Wii price cuts. No major losses (or gains) of exclusivity. No new tattoos. We saw all the games we expected, and that was pretty much that. There were a couple ...

What the hell was that?
If you didn't happen to catch the craptacular footage from the Microsoft conference tonight, Ubisoft is still keeping their baby under wraps.
What the dilly-yo? The footage we received tonight was almost identical to last years E3...The protagonist Altair was shown jumping from wooden planks ...

I'm sure you've heard the 60gb PS3 price has been cut $100 to a more stomachable $499. And that there is a NEW $599 SKU which gives you... an extra 20GB and Motorstorm. I can't help but agree with the commentary I've read. It's seems Sony has put themselves right ...

After missing the delivery of my repaired 360 (note: signature in person required!), I drove over to my UPS to get the package. While waiting for the box to be retrieved, the customer service person noticed the shipper field on my missed delivery notification read "repair center." With only that ...

Dear Aaron,
You must think the gaming community is idiots, since you keep trying to justify the price of the 120GB by comparing it to external self powered PC drives.
If you compare what we are offering with a real plug-and-play drive the closest thing would be to take a 120 gig ...

The more you read on the net, the more you sense this is NOT just an isolated incident. While luckily these guys find it comical, they are by no means alone. It appears Sony has launched an Xbox 360 EMP (I kid, I kid), because I have noticed a huge ...

1. Why a third SKU?
Sure, Microsoft is running a business. But it's ridiculous to try and convince us it's the only way they could have introduced a larger hard drive. Their argument is that by offering it as only an add-on, it would put new buyers in an awkward situation. ...
