Foot Soldiers

GC News | 2006 FIFA World Cup

Cars

GC News | Cars

Lately, we've seen a lot of movie-based games that try to expand on - instead of directly adapt - the story of the film they're based on. The Godfather did it, Over the Hedge did it and this summer, Cars will do it.

It's been available in Japan for several months already, but now it's on its way to the US and we've got the shots for you to coo over.

Donkey Kong returns to the arcades

GC News | Donkey Kong Jungle Beat

With nothing but two buttons on the control panel of the cabinet, a similar control style to Jungle Beat, which saw players hit the button repeatedly to run left and right. The three player functionality will presumably allow players to compete in ...
