click to redeem for a larger screenshot From the first trailer, we've been hankering to see more from Rockstar's open-world treatment of the Wild West, Red Dead Redemption. That said, there was considerable hootin' and hollerin' around the 'Stiq when the dev dished out these latest screens today. As good as RDR looks, its gameplay sounds equally impressive given the demo we got during PAX 2009. The ability to kill everything in the game (well, with the exception of things that aren't alive in the first place -- you win this time, rock!) is perhaps overshadowed only by the fact that you'll be able to tan your own leather and sell it, fulfilling a life-long dream for at least .01% of those who'll play it.Yip-yip yee-haw your way through the new shots in the gallery below, pardners.

Avanquest Software Publishing, a leading consumer software and games publisher, has signed with three popular children’s brands to bring a range of new pre-school Nintendo DS titles to retail. Roary the Racing Car, Fifi and the Flowertots and Postman Pat are now available to complement the development of key early years skills through methods such [...]

We're not so swift on the uptake sometimes, so maybe you can help us make this distinction. Nicolas Doucet of Sony Computer Entertainment's London Studio told Gamespot that action titles Eight Days and The Getaway 3 aren't "abandoned" per se, just "put to one side." To clarify: No one is working on these things at all while the team focuses on EyePet and Singstar. So, basically, no one has put the files for the games on to a single computer, doused it in gasoline, flipped it off and then set it ablaze. Because that's apparently what it takes for a game to be classified as canceled.

The Game Party franchise lives on!

Yarr mateys! Ye be wise to stay away from Three-Barrel Cove, else be ripe for pillaging!

Holy crap, I forgot all about Figment! I used to love this guy! I even had a stuffed animal from Disney World. I’d love to see this guy make the cut for Epic Mickey, but I doubt he will.

It's a big week for Grand Theft Auto trailers! First we got a new Episodes from Liberty City clip, and today, Rockstar sent out a trailer for the PSP version of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, which comes out on October 20. We didn't realize it was so soon! Of course, if you have a DS, it comes out a lot sooner -- seven months ago, in fact -- but no matter how many times this wonderful game is released, it'll be exciting every time. The graphical update on the PSP version looks nice, even if the trailer makes it hard to actually see the game. If these moving images aren't enough, check Kotaku for some new screens. And yes, two trailers counts as a big week.

Which one of these boxes isn’t real, but could be?! Article here Sorry guys, it’s the Trish Stratus boxart that’s fan-made. You might know this if you were paying attention to GoNintendo a couple weeks back!

From what JJ told me, the auction was at about $8,000 up until the last 2 minutes, and then an insane bidding war took place. The final tally was what you see above. I love games, but not that much!

A portion of a Diehard GameFAN review… My Friends is a cute and fun set of mini-games with a few nice social aspects thrown in to make it a bit different than most games in this genre. While there isn’t a lot of depth to it, it does have a bit of addictiveness to it, and [...]

Director Fumito Ueda discusses exciting new story elements to expect from The Last Guardian.

I normally don’t trumpet the GameSpot character polls, but Valve has now given me the motivation to do so! Long story short, GameSpot had Link Vs. Gordon Freeman in their greatest game hero poll, and Link got slaughtered when Valve told all of their Steam-users to go vote for Mr. Freeman. Now it’s Mario Vs. [...]

We may die of an acute case of jealousy. Treasure's Sin and Punishment 2 is still on track to be released in Japan on October 29, and it still has that amazing box art. Dengeki has posted a nice selection of screens showing the spectacular visuals you'll be flying around, and shooting at. FYI, for the giant chicken monster-phobic: the giant chicken monster is only in one of the screens.We're looking forward to trying out the multiple control schemes available: both with pointing, in the form of Wiimote/Nunchuk and Zapper, and pointer-free with the GameCube Controller, Classic Controller, or Classic Controller Pro.

In an interview with Famitsu, Super Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono did a lot of hinting, but didn't really offer any specifics about the new Street Fighter IV update. For example, he declined to explain what's going on with the changed Ultra Combo gauge, though Famitsu speculates the mark in the middle is a Roman numeral I, to denote the first of multiple meters filling. However, there's still enough information to be interesting in Andriasang's translated synopsis.Ono said he wanted to expand online play, to more closely approximate the excitement of being at a tournament. Online match viewing is something Ono hopes to add to the game, making Street Fighter more of a spectator sport. He also said he wanted to augment the Replay Viewer feature in some way.As for the most noticeable new addition to Super -- the new characters -- don't expect Juri to be the only original character among a bunch of old Street Fighter series also-rans. Ono said he wanted to add more original characters who, like C. Viper, are at "the borderline of what fans might accept" using unusual fighting styles.
