Complaint Filed: Are you infected with this new strain?
Left 4 Dead is one of the most amazing little titles to arrive in the last few years, not just for it’s slick online cooperative modes, but it’s versus mode manages to remain balanced and fun after dozens of playthroughs. But with heavy crowds comes the possibility of infectious diseases. It’s my sad duty to [...]

If you like Track and Field games, and you like your iPhone, and you also enjoy not spending a lot of money, then Playman Track and Field is for you. It’s got nice graphics, smooth and simple gameplay, (simply hit green dots as fast as you can followed by a well timed 2 orange dot [...]
Tekken 6, Soul Calibur coming to PSP
Did you think the PSP was dead? Oh good, I’m not alone. Well, along with a new Rock Band/Amplitude game coming from Harmonix, Namco Bandai is throwing their weight behind the portable with its two major fighting franchises. A port of Tekken 6 to the system is in the works, as is a Soul Calibur [...]
Peggle Proliferation Continues; Now Playable in WoW
Wow, indeed. Not content with the game being crack-like enough, Popcap is releasing a second World of Warcraft plugin. Joining the Bejeweled plugin, the new Peggle plugin allows for WoW players to get their Peggle fix while flying between cities, waiting for battlegrounds, or, in the case of my guild, waiting for people to show [...]
Katamari Forever coming to PS3 in HD this fall
Go ahead and click through that link on Game Trailers to the HD version. I’m fine with that. Because Katamari Forever is, essentially Katamari Damacy in Hi Def. There’s also some additional, cool looking graphics options you can play in (as shown in the trailer), but it’s HD Katamari Damacy. Nothing more, nothing less. Me, [...]

But this 3rd iteration is truly our last stop for a significant amount of time. The theme was custom designed for us by WordPress impresario [...]
Guitar Hero: Van Halen not announced, but available for Pre-Order
File this under the worst kept secrets of the year thus far. Although it’s not been announced yet, Gamestop was accepting pre-orders for the next band specific version of Guitar Hero. My thought is that when Activision politely asked them to cut that out, they complied. As the game isn’t announced yet, there’s not much [...]

The online-only game will be coming to PC, XBLA and PSN this June, for the equivalent of $15 of your system’s currency. Any takers on this one? Sounds [...]
Guitar Hero: (Some) Smash Hits Tracks Revealed
If you just can’t get enough of Guitar Hero, and also wondered what a full band version of “Psychobilly Freakout” must be like, then the upcoming GH: Smash Hits is likely going to be an easy purchase. Activision has revealed some of the tracks, but not all. It’s a good list, but there are some [...]
The Clan
So if you’ve seen the very popular The Guild series, you may see this as a mild ripoff. However Loco did some research, and 30 seconds and some Wikipedia later I found out this was made in 2007 around the same time The Guild got started. Regardless of obvious comparison, it’s still pretty funny. Teabag! [...]
