Screwattack.com’s clip of (last) week
This clip is 2 parts: The first, being the most bizarre commercial ever made for anything, and the second part being a rather funny clip of the Screwattack.com crew dealing with an Altered Toucan problem. The big Mexican guy, Jose, is absolutely amazing at Call Of Duty 4. No, honestly, he is. And I also [...]
Complaint Filed: Gamefly Still Sucks
I swear someone here at SHR made a complaint about Gamefly at some other point, but I just can’t put my finger on it. In all seriousness, I just want someone to add up the percentages of these three titles (<25%, + >60%, + >85%), and explain to me why none of these titles are [...]

Review: Canabalt (iPhone/iPod Touch)
Let’s just get this out of the way: the iPhone has changed the way I poop. And lately, I owe some of that to the recent port of Canabalt to the platform, because the game is just that hard to put down. If you’re not familiar with Canabalt, don’t worry. If you’re reading this review [...]

Its description, shamelessly borrowed from Joystiq: — “Scavenge has the four survivor characters scrambling to collect gas cans from various spots in a confined location — in this case a motel, pictured — in order to fuel up a generator before a two-minute [...]

This one was on a few people’s radars, then it fell off, and it’s quickly coming back. Re-invisioned from it’s original daylight incarnation, the new, bad-assier (?!) Splinter Cell Conviction finally has a release date, and it’s conveniently after all of the holiday backlog. So check out the latest trailer above. This do anything for [...]
Rock Band En Route to iPhone
Well, I guess it’s not too surprising, but Rock Band is coming to Apple’s handhelds. The exclusive Touch Arcade video above shows what it looks like, as well as the gameplay for all 4 instruments (spoiler: you don’t sing. It’s also tappy). Multiplayer modes (local bluetooth and online) and achievements are also included. There’s no [...]
The final Modern Warfare 2 trailer?
Cue up the hyperbole, cuz there’s a new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 trailer out there. Fresh off tonight’s Sunday Night Football, the uncut HD trailer is posted above. Nice little twist at the end of it that, I gotta say, I didn’t see coming. Does it make me want to play even more!?!? [...]
