Call of Duty 4 gets Game of the Year edition for April
If you haven’t picked up Call of Duty 4 yet, then it may actually be in your best interest to continue waiting. Word is that Activision will release a Game of the Year edition sometime in April. The special edition will feature new packaging as well as the ability to download the new map pack for free.
So far the special edition of the game has only been confirmed for the Xbox 360, though it would seem likely a PS3 version would be released, too. The whole idea of special editions of console games seemed entirely foreign just a few years ago. That all has changed as more games get the special edition treatment such as Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry 3.
As it has changed it has also negated the need for many gamers to buy games upon first release. Why shell out for Call of Duty 4 at release when waiting a few months will get you the game cheaper with the downloadable maps for free? Of course, lack of patience still leads to many buying games on their release date. It’s all a question of how much your money is worth to you.

Friday the 13th: a tribute in games
about 1 year ago - View Comments
This Friday will see the “reimagining†of one of the classic slasher franchises in theaters across the nation. Standing now at 12 films, it is hard to imagine a film franchise making it this far and not being the subject matter of a game or two. Unfortunately, the only game of note to honor the
Microsoft claims sales doubled since price drop
about 1 year ago - View Comments
Microsoft would like you to know that since dropping the price on the Xbox 360 (all three SKUs), that they have seen sales double. That’s right, two times the sales before the price drop. Of course, that’s hardly a coup with their last place sales as of late. Still, it’s a positive sign for a

If you’ve ever dared to delve into the darker nether-regions of geekdom known as AV message boards, then you know people can literally muster an argument over which is the best $500 HDMI cable. Yes, they’ll quote random studies here and there (usually “studies” coming from a magazine article trying to sell magazines), but they’ll
Call of Duty: World At War shows off Co-Op gameplay
about 2 years ago - Comments Off
It’s hard to imagine that just a few short years ago the Call of Duty series didn’t even exist on consoles and the Medal of Honor series reigned supreme. How times have changed! Another year and another Call of Duty game is on its way, this time with co-op gameplay. So, how does it look?
E3 2008: Microsoft press conference review
about 2 years ago - View Comments
There was a time when E3 was a really, really big deal. Now, it’s simply a really big deal. One of the biggest factors of its whole big dealness comes from the console manufacturers’ press conferences. They typically range from the epic (introduction of the Wii) to the horribly, horribly wrong (introduction of the PS3
Guitar Hero 4 to feature a create a song feature
about 2 years ago - View Comments
Early hype has been that Guitar Hero 4 would “revolutionize” music games with an incredible new feature. Are they going to add a keyboard? How about a kazoo? No, sadly not. Instead, the revolutionary new feature is “create a song.” That’s the word from Game Informer magazine (or at least the word from sources who
Killzone 2 finally getting it right
about 2 years ago - Comments Off
Killzone 2 has certainly wowed gamers before. From the original “target” trailer to the later “actual” trailer, the game has provided plenty of eye candy. Of course, it has also provided plenty of controversy thanks to that “target” demo. However, it appears Killzone 2′s critics may finally have to eat their crow. While showing very
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift is looking good at an early stage
about 2 years ago - Comments Off
The original Motorstorm was an oddly controversial title. Odd because who ever considers racing games controversial? Still, Sony managed to make it just that by over hyping and delivering a disappointing demo that wasn’t quite up to the finished product. Still, when all was said and done, those who played the game found a very
Video of the day: Ninja Gaiden anime remake
about 2 years ago - View Comments
It may not sound like it at first, but Ninja Gaiden for the NES is the perfect title to get an anime redo. The game was one of the first to really use cut-scenes to tell a story within what was otherwise a general action platformer. This update is certainly stylish and adds the right
Earth Day: Five games that kill the environment

What goes better with playing video games than poisoning the environment for future generations? Perhaps melting the polar icecaps? Clubbing baby seals? Okay, that last one went a bit far. Still, the point is that video games can be very bad for the environment. Take the following five games for instance. Each is addictive to
