We have talked about it, talked about it some more and at Captivate '09 Capcom made the announcement, MvC2 is coming to Xbox Live and the Playstation Network!
Not only that, but the demo is out this week and exclusive to the Playstation 3! Mark your calendars for April 30th, Thursday as MvC2 day on the PSN.
Details on the demo are as follows:
Two-player local matchesSix available characters – Ryu, Chun-Li, Strider, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Wolverine (just on the demo)Seven selectable environment… More
I talked about the Arkham Asylum collector's edition before but we didn't really know what was in it other than a product listing. It mentioned this nearly mythological Batarang and now we actually have a shot of it.
If that bad boy is metal this might be the coolest collector's edition ever. I have ranted about CEs and goofy gamer stuff in other blogs but I would gladly take the ridicule of buying this for the ability to toss a death inducing Bataran… More
Love or hate it, Madden is a massive success in the gaming world. Two years ago was one of the worst editions ever. 2008 was terrible. I almost didn't buy '09 last year because of this but thankfully it actually improved quite a bit. Needless to say with the addition of Jay Cutler and Orlando Pace and hopefully a receiver tomorrow I am excited to get under center with my Chicago Bears.
Above is the debut trailer, courtesy of Gametrailers and Peter "I used to work at Xbox" Moore. The gang tac… More
Yes, that is a moose head on new protagonist Chuck Greene. If you don't think that is awesome stop reading now! A bunch of news about Capcom's Dead Rising 2 hit the internet today including a new trailer below which you should be sure to check out.
Wielding a dual-chainsaw-lance looks like complete insanity, I can't wait. The new engine looks fantastic and Kotaku reports that the 7,000 zombies on screen is no joke as the engine is very capable of it… More
The first official news on a new Fallout game came courtesy of Bethesda today. Fallout: New Vegas is coming this year and there is more good news to be had.
This is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, yes, the original developers of Fallout 1 and 2. Don't get your hopes up too high however as you probably won't see a return to the isometric view in the original games. From the sounds of it this will be Fallout 3 set in Vegas with the original developers. I don't find that as a hang up … More
I talked a bit about MAG way back at E3 2008 but that has been the last we have heard about it. The good news the media is finally rolling in as well as the previews and you can check both out below.
The above video comes courtesy of Joystiq who happened across a hands-on with the game recently with Zipper Interactive. Zipper was the brains behind the original SOCOM so they generally know their warfare games.
Joystiq's hands-on offers up some highlights of the game including: - smooth online p… More
Sorry about the missing drop last night. I felt pretty crappy, feel asleep at like 4am and didn't get up till 11. I'll make it up to you tonight with "the hottest woman in the world" and an awesome police chase. Deal? +1
If you decide to steal someone's car it may be a wise decision to not try and run the owner when he his pointing a gun at you. Jaime Jones caught a couple in the act of stealing his Land Rover one morning and they tried to run him over. He shot at them apparently killing t… More
Seems a community moderator over at the Star Wars: The Old Republic may have inserted foot into mouth yesterday.
Posters in a thread titled "GLBT discrimination in forums?" complained about the censoring of the words gay and lesbian in the forums in various topics regarding how the game would handle same-sex relationships in the game. The debate wore on for a few pages when a community manager started:
"As I have stated before, these are terms that do not exist in Star Wars. Thread closed."

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 seems to be the new holy grail of fighting games when it comes to demands for a rerelease. It is like Goldeneye and Final Fantasy 7, now that Street Fighter 2 HD is out of the way.
Vir provided some evidence of a new version of the game this past weekend and now more websites are popping up seemingly tied to the game and Capcom at the same time. TheGameReviews picked up on a website named tu4ar.com. Interestingly enough "Take You For A Ride" is the theme song of the MvC2 sc… More
