Join the off-road world tour!

Namco Bandai and House Shokuhin have teamed up once again to bring in-game curry into the real world. The curry you see above comes in two spicy flavors. You can grab your real-life curry on December 7th, or just settle for the in-game version when Tales of Graces launches.

A portion of a WiisWorld review… The zany antics of the cats may be enough to entertain very young gamers for a short time, but even at a budget price Ninja Captains is not one I could recommend.

A portion of an N-Sider review… Deca Sports 2 ends up a decent package overall, even if you consider that you’ll probably look at half its games once and never go back. Online play for some of the best sports is a nice thing to have, particularly if you expect you’ll be doing it with a [...]

Oh, how hard we fall.

I’ve had a hankering for some Donkey Kong Country really bad over these last few days. I just don’t have the time to play it again, regardless of how much I’d like to. There are just some games out there that are fantastic no matter how many times you play through. DKC [...]

Get ready for some extreme base jumping.

A portion of an ONM review… The best wrestling game on a Nintendo console since the N64 glory days. Impressive.

Karaoke chain Pasela and Marvelous have teamed up to create 6 real-life recreations of in-game meals. From Oct. 27th to Nov. 26th, customers at the Pasela locations will be able to sample these meals. Even better, those that order off of this menu get to take home a clear file as a free [...]

Can this sequel to DS's virtual guitar program live up to its own name?

This Tamagotchi game features a real-time clock, as well as an on/off switch for sound. Why in the world does there have to be a switch on the actual cartridge for sound control?!

Lady Gaga can't shut her Playboy mouth. That's sad.

You don’t really hear too many themes like this anymore. Games have gotten much too serious to let us have fun with our ears. It’s all about deep, moving, symphonic pieces. Don’t get me wrong, that type of music definitely has a place in the game industry. The problem is, everyone [...]

What a nightmare.

Strap in for the ride of your life.

This No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle trailer introduces Henry, who appears in the first game in a series of very exciting, eminently spoilable sequences. It appears to do for the former villain what Metal Gear Solid 4 did for Raiden -- make the fans love a once-despised character. Coincidentally (according to the tenuous comparison I've set up for the two), both characters are voiced by Quinton Flynn. He's just got a talent for characters that you'll probably like better the second time!The end of the trailer features Henry fighting a young girl with some kind of giant robot arms. Thanks for existing, game.

Story quest 147 - “Driver’s Test” - must clear main game and all quests up to 146 - Agiro asks you if you’d like to fly the ship - obtain your flying license by flying around the world to visit Kades Prison inmates - get a rare item for clearing - Dragon Quest V’s Flora is this week’s guest [...]

Ride a Banshee and take the fight to the skies.

Use the lush forest environment to your advantage.

This art was made for an upcoming Dragon Quest IX DLC quest, co-created by the guys at Famitsu.

The folks at Volatile Games explain what Jack has in his arsenal this time around.

Not that we can understand him. You see, Spelunker discusses 3D Dot Game Heroes in the video above, but the inconsiderate cave explorer does so entirely in Japanese. So, unless you're up on your kanji, you'll just have to settle for some new, delightful footage of From Software's retro romp. It looks a lot like old-school Zelda titles, which is by no means a bad thing. Watch the video above for plenty of world-exploring, monster-killing, sword-finding action -- and pray someone picks this up for release outside of Japan (hello, Atlus?).

Review board denies Valves appeal of approval for unedited version.

Yesterday we posted up Gamasutra’s analysis of September’s NPD numbers. If you didn’t check that 6-page feature out yesterday, you can now look at a single-page discussion of Wii software sales, and how they seem to be slowing down. Again, nothing new for those that clicked over yesterday…just a condensed article.
