#tgs If you saw the debut trailer for Q-Games' new project Lifelike, you probably thought to yourself "Uh... what?" Fortunately, we caught up with Q-Games founder Dylan Cuthbert and visual artist-musician Baiyon at TGS to learn more about the PixelJunk spin-off. More »

See Joe go to a strip club.

Hit MMORPG arriving on the alaplaya gaming portal in early 2011.

No, MAG 2.0 isn't the supposed sequel we've seen pop up in at least one retailer's inventory computers. It's version 2.0 of the original game, and it's "less than a month away," according to developer Zipper Interactive's blog. The update looks to pack some pretty big additions -- hence the big two-point-oh.

The previously announced PlayStation Move support headlines a roster of improvements, and will make MAG one of the first "core" titles to implement Sony's motion controller. Zipper is also upping the level cap from 60 to 70, introducing changes to the skill tree designed to give MAG "the deepest character customization and specialization ever found in a first-person shooter," boasts Zipper. Additionally, the update will institute an in-game economy where match winnings can be used to buy new weapons and gear from a "Supply Depot."

Of course, 2.0 will also usher in a host of fixes and tweaks intended to "streamline the overall experience." And if you can believe it, Zipper is teasing that there's even more content in the upcoming patch to be revealed before it goes live. Now we just need to know exactly when that'll be, so we can start shoving aside all personal and professional obligations.

First off, I just want to make it clear that the details of this offer aren’t 100% confirmed yet. This deal may only be available in the UK. We’re hearing that people that pick up a DJ Hero 2 turntable bundle will also get to take home the original DJ Hero for free. This [...]

Time to mow down some aliens.

Ni no Kuni: The Jet-Black Mage on DS hasn't changed much since I saw it at last year's TGS, but a new demo allowed me a chance to (attempt to) use the game's spellbook accessory. It also offered me a shot at my first boss battle, which subsequently forced me to learn a bit more about the battle system. Read on for my impressions.

Reactions to the over-the-top reboot and why it could rock.

#americanmcgee During the last decade, American McGee's Alice was picked up by then Disney-owned studio Miramax to be turned into a feature film. The movie didn't happen. Tim Burton, however, did make a version of Alice in Wonderland. More »

Capcom's over-the-top comic book crossover has picked up another combatant at Tokyo Game Show. Ripped from the pages of X-Men, "X-23" enters Marvel vs. Capcom 3 as a nimble counterpart to Wolverine. As our exasperated comic expert points out, "She's a female clone of Wolverine and possesses all of his regenerative and feral abilities. She also has adamantium-coated blades protruding from her hands and feet -- so she probably doesn't spend a ton of money on gloves or galoshes."

You can get a snikt peek at X-23 in action (along with Tron Bonne) in the video clips after the break.

This frantic freebie features PIGS…IN…Spaaaaaaace!

I’ve played disc golf once before, and the course wasn’t anywhere near as nice as the one in Sports Champions.

After the rapid, manic action found in Gladiator Duel, an event like Disc Golf is a fun, relaxing way to wind down. That calmer place doesn’t mean that it doesn’t take full advantage of the PlayStation Move technology, however. Producer Jeremy Ray shows us why Sports Champions presents the best “frolfing” experience you’ve ever seen in a video game.

I particularly like how you’re not going through pre-determined motions – if you want to underhand toss your disc into the goal, you’re free to do it (and it’s a pretty good technique from 20 feet and under).

We wrap up Sports Champions week tomorrow with Table Tennis.

You'll never survive the zombocalypse unless you take the time to educate yourself. Thankfully, we've got this first Yakuza: Of the End trailer and accompanying screens for you to study. Take note: These gangster fellows may be bad guys, but they're all that stands between you and the biting.

#rumor Another offhand mention of the unannounced successor to Sony's PlayStation Portable, as an executive producer with Mortal Kombat's Netherrealm Studios tells Industry Gamer that they've got one, and it's very nice. More »

As you can see, the official Pokemon GTS website has been closed down. No word on why the decision was made just now, but I guess that doesn’t matter. The site is no more, and I’m sure many will shed a tear for it. Thanks to NeoMew for the heads up.

Just because it's in Japanese doesn't mean I don't understand it.
