We're back, mofos!
Best... Halo... EVER.
Welcome back to the guild.
This week, Ryan and Anthony take a moment to talk about Civilization V, before the comedy twins segue into horrible stories about banging and rec center destruction. No, seriously, we saw a rec center destroyed this week. Oh, and we discuss our listeners' curious inclination toward snail mail. Read More »
Sid Meier's Civilization V is one of the biggest PC games of the year, and with its release this week we figured there's no better time to share the Civ love with our loyal readers. We've got a few boxed copies of the game to give away, including a Special Edition that's full of goodies like metal miniature figurines, an art book, the official soundtrack and more. However, there's a catch... Read More »
Sony's most recent software update for the PlayStation 3 brings 3D movies to the console, and as some gamers are discovering, it's also bricking unlicensed third-party controllers. And be warned, Sony states in a consumer alert, those now useless controllers could become explosive. Read More »
While speaking at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch conference last week, Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick labeled Halo studio Bungie the last remaining high quality independent game developer. It's a controversial comment that caused a stir in the industry, and at least one indie developer is calling Kotick out for it. Read More »
LittleBigPlanet 2 is an undeniably ambitious game because it will not only bring players another ingenious Sackboy adventure, it will also allow aspiring designers to create just about any kind of game they want. As the devs at Media Molecule admitted today, it's an even more ambitious undertaking than they realized, and as a result, the game has been delayed until 2011. Read More »
After teetering on the edge of insolvency for more than a year, Blockbuster, the former king of movie and videogame rentals, officially filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection today with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York City. Read More »
Creativity kills in the latest video for Capcom's zombie mosh pit, Dead Rising 2. The sequel to the 2006 hit finally arrives next week, bringing with it a wide variety of hilarious new everything-is-a-weapon options -- a bunch of which are on full display (chainsoar anyone?) in this official launch trailer.

When Microsoft launches its controller-free controller in November, it will also unveil its Xbox Live interface overhaul. But you don't need to wait two months or have Kinect to see the new system in action. Hit the jump to learn more about the Xbox 360 System Update Preview program. Read More »
Communities would be better served by cops patrolling the streets and highways rather than the check-out lines at GameStop. That's the opinion Activision Blizzard made loud and clear today in the case of Schwarzenegger vs. EMA. Read More »
You've read all about Irrational's floating city of Columbia and even seen a teaser trailer for BioShock: Infinite. If those didn't pique your interest in the game, try this on for size: a nearly 10 minute gameplay demo of Infinite in action. Read More »
Gamers were among the biggest fans of Christopher Nolan's mind-crime flick, Inception, and one critic even went so far as to say the only people who could understand the film's multi-layered plot are those who "fritter away their time playing videogames." Evidently, the movie's connection to gaming is no accident, and the director now says an Inception videogame is being planned. Read More »
There are high hopes for Konami's upcoming Castelvania resurrection, and gamers wary of falling prey to another 3D vampire hunting flop can take heart: a Lords of Shadow demo is available on PlayStation Network today for Plus subscribers, and standard PSN and Xbox Live versions are set to follow next week.

I went to this lecture once, back in my one-hand-waving-free college days, entitled: "Books Everyone Loves, But No One Has Read." The professor discussed the way that certain works of literature can enter the minds of a population as whole-cloth entities, whether or not they'd actually been read -- the mere mention of their titles evoking ideas, images, emotions, and even lines of text that may not have existed in the books at all.

Toronto hasn't always been the indie game development Mecca that it's grown into today. Just under a decade ago, studios in the city were scarce, and many budding developers had to leave Toronto to find solid work. Sick of competing for the meager handful of game dev job openings in town and unwilling to relocate away from home, a group of enthusiastic game makers set out to change things. After a few years of working on a slate of mobile phone projects, indie studio Capybara Games has settled into a steady groove crafting offbeat games about rainbow-puking critters, puzzle jousting combatants, and pixilated touchy-feely warriors.

What happens when video game characters get freaky? Well, we're about to share a few hot, steamy, and sometimes-salacious stories of what goes down between the sheets (and elsewhere!) for some of our favorite pixelated heroes. Bam-chicka-wow-wow! Read More »
