Bungie's latest becomes a multi-million seller.

I’m not into NASCAR at all, but that is one hell of a sweet ride. Let’s hope it doesn’t get scuffed up this Sunday!

Mario…Link…Samus…these are the names you know and love. Nintendo has built up an absolutely incredible amount of franchise characters over the years. We’ve come to know and love these heroes of gaming. They are one of the major reasons why we love to follow Nintendo! You’re not going to get these [...]

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything about GTI Club Supermini Festa, which is coming from Konami. While we may not have new media to show off, we do have a rather loose release date for Europe. Konami has confirmed that GTI Club Supermini Festa will be made available in Europe sometime during [...]

The official Puyo Pop 7 soundtrack features 41 tracks, and is set to release in Japan on December 11th.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii isn't a game for you to play by yourself. Sure, you could, but it's just not going to be the best way to extract all of the fun the experience has to offer. Instead, you really should try to corral some friends together for multiplayer, which is guaranteed to do one of two things: strengthen the bonds you and your three partners in platforming have established, or take those friendships you've worked so hard on over an indeterminate amount of time and stomp them like a lost, lonely Goomba.

Oh, perfect use for my spare tinderbox!

Created with the capability to launch a nuclear slug, halfway across the world -- undetected -- Metal Gear Rex is anything but cute. That is, until you shrink it down to toy size, at which point it becomes positively adorable. The killer collectible was initially spotted by a Toyark forum member, who noted it was coming from threeA. The forum dweller further noted that Rex appears to be 15 to 17 inches tall. We're not sure if the railgun is functional but, if push comes to shove, you could definitely launch some rubber bands off of that thing. Pricing and release information have not yet been revealed.

We might normally scoff at the array of Xbox Live Avatar clothing being made available for Band Hero - a near ubiquitous occurrence with game releases for the Xbox 360 these days. Not today though, friends. Nope, today we have the opportunity to get our Avatar a totally rad, Say Anything style boombox. We know, we know - finally. For the low, low price of 240 ($3), you too can be as cool as Lloyd Dobler (though there's no promise of landing a lady as fine as Diane Court with said item). We suppose you could pick up the other stuff too, available for 80 ($1) to 240 ($3), if you're into that kinda thing. You could get a microphone or a shirt or a ... just get the boombox, alright? You don't wanna end up being given a pen and getting told how "valuable the friendship" is, do you? Hmm?

Codemasters may have created the very best multiplayer experience on the NES with Micro Machines. They also had a lot of trouble coming their way from the Big N. Codemasters’ NES games weren’t officially licensed by Nintendo, but the Big N just couldn’t find a way to stop the company from creating and [...]

A cozy fire, a comfy chair, a good book, and...terror?

Over at the PlayStation Blog, details for the competitive multiplayer modes for SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 3 have spilled out revealing the game will feature 16-player competitive multiplayer games across eight maps and seven new modes. The modes -- which are available both locally and over the Internet -- include a "Leader Mode" allowing players to designate team captains and a "Tug-of-War" mode, where teams fight for tickets similar to the Battlefield franchise.Playing SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 3 online also allows worldwide players to experience tournaments, clan modes, character customization and voice chat. Voice chat, you say? Finally our dream of bringing hateful language on the go can be realized.

I don’t think I’ve ever come out and asked you guys this. What is it about Retro Game Challenge that leaves you uninterested? Clearly, there are many more of you that wanted nothing to do with the game than those that did. I’d be very interested to hear why this game didn’t [...]

Namco Bandai's classic fighter is here again on the PSP.

Following a surprisingly passionate fanboy petition, an Assassin's Creed game is actually coming to PSP. Ubisoft hasn't done much to promote the upcoming PSP exclusive, Bloodlines, but this new trailer -- released a few days before the game hits store shelves -- is something ... right? In addition to showcasing the game's crisp look, the trailer emphasizes connectivity between Assassin's Creed II on PS3 and Bloodlines on PSP -- both due out next week -- without actually going into detail. Thankfully, we already found out about some of those features.
