Twisted Pixel has risen to XBLA fame with critically acclaimed titles The Maw and 'Splosion Man. When the developers offer to personally stop by your West Los Angeles apartment to show you their latest title, Comic Jumper, you say yes. That's what I did, and in addition to playing through the first level and getting a feel for the mechanics, I played a few later levels and got a good look at all of the collectibles and extras you'll be unlocking throughout the game.

Comic Jumper is a longtime passion project for Twisted Pixel -- COO Josh Bear drew the game's main character, Captain Smiley, way back in seventh grade, and it's something the company has always wanted to make. After the success of 'Splosion Man last year, the team decided to have a go at finally turning it into a game. "It's not like we have any idea of how long the company could be around," Bear joked.

On September 1st, a bunch of lucky God of War fans (myself included) got a unique opportunity to learn more about the directors of the franchise when we filmed God of War Live at the El Portal Theater in North Hollywood, CA. Really enjoying the chance to provide an inside look at the people who make God of War, we decided to start a new series of posts exclusively through the official God of War forums that will highlight various team members and find out why they love playing games, making games, and God of War.

With the God of War: Ghost of Sparta Demo already available for PlayStation Plus subscribers and Spartan Army members, and the game’s launch just weeks away, who better to start with than the fine folks of Ready at Dawn Studios and the Lead Animator on Ghost of Sparta, Adam Byrne.

Head to the official God of War forums and start leaving your questions! We’ll be sure to keep it in mind for the future.

With its primitive graphics and tough-to-explain premise, Minecraft doesn't do the best job of selling itself. Luckily, fan and YouTuber Vareide is there to step in after the break with his Inception-inspired trailer. And if that doesn't pan out? There's always R&B.

We find comfort in the known constants of our universe. You know, things like the laws of thermodynamics, or the fact that every time a new Pokémon game hits store shelves in Japan, people go absolutely bananas for it. Today, we have a figure for just how bananas these pocket-sized monster enthusiasts went: Within the first two days of their launch, Pokémon Black and White racked up over 2.6 million units sold.

As a point of contrast, Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver only pulled in 1.4 million units during their first two days on store shelves last year. We guess Japanese gamers value the grayscale dichotomy of Black and White over the flash and elegance of Gold and Silver. Or maybe, just maybe, all those new pokémon had something to do with it.
