Aaron Rigby, producer on the upcoming Jackass game, has given a short Q&A that touches on what we can expect from the PS2 and PSP bone-breaker.
Where did the inspiration come from for the game?
Aaron Rigby: The original series was the biggest inspiration. It was just crazy and creative. The way the Jackass crew had the show set up gave us the opportunity to draw from a huge amount of stunts.
Is the game based in actual sketches or are they completely new?
Rigby: Nearly every stunt is
Some of us here like Jackass. Theres nothing like watching a man take a leech to the eye or drive through a city with a baby carriage on his car. Today we bring the love and shower you (cleanly) with new screens from the upcoming PSP game. Jackass will be a collection of minigames based on stunts from the show. Therell be upwards of 40 in the final game, including golf kart bang-em-ups, rolling Steve-O down a hill inside a bin and all the usual dangerous
We've known about the existence of a Jackass tie-in since last May, but it wasn't until earlier in the year that we got first images of how the game would look on PSP.
Now we've scored first images of the game on PS2 and - no surprises - it looks much the same, except no longer in slightly lower res widescreen format.
The premise of the game sounds simple, much like its protagonists. You take part as one of the troupe of modern day circus freaks as they attempt to inflict as much pain and
What's hotter than watching a cute princess kiss a fat, middle-aged plumber? Well, anything really, but given the headline above, the answer should be obvious: watching a cute princess kiss another cute princess. It's sexy, it's vaguely taboo and it's pleasantly devoid of bristling mustaches and lingering sewage odors.
It's much more common to see girl-on-girl kisses in other media, but it happens in games more often than you'd think. To prove it to you, we've collected the very best ones and

Following on from the posted last week, we've now got nine exclusive shots of the game's heroes fighting with a few of the game's unusual looking enemies, including ill-tempered rat-ninjas and an odd-looking fire-based dragon man.
Jade Empire is set to be the Xbox's biggest, and by far and away best, adventure RPG yet seen, with amazing graphics, varied enemies, a deep and involving storyline and a vast array of different martial art styles for your character to learn.
So without further
Jade Empire is an exception on Bioware's resume. The Action RPG, based on
mythologized ancient China and first published on the original Xbox by
Microsoft, is one of the only titles never to see expansion into a franchise.
However, the company's co-founders, Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk, have confirmed
that a return to the game's setting is something the company has considered
often, and is “just looking for the right way to deploy” another installment...

BioWare blockbusters like Mass Effect 2 and Star Wars: Knights of the

We still wince with pain when we think back on seeing an early version of the spectacular action role-player, Jade Empire, in 2004. Watching our avatar punch a guy in the stomach and explode was book-ended by the news that the game would only be available on the Xbox, with no plans for a PC version. Taken together, these two things represented the extremes of our emotional spectrums.
