PS2 Feature | Madden NFL 07
So, you're one of the millions and millions of potential Madden 07 players who have yet to fork over the cash for a shiny, new Xbox 360, and you'd like to hear a little about how Madden is going to play on your system this year? We've got you covered. We were given time in a windowless room to brain-beat Associate Producer Josh Looman, and he started singing like a canary before we even rolled up our sleeves.

PS2 Feature | Mafia

Mafia opens in 1938, as gangster Thomas Angelo arrives at a little diner to meet with an Irish cop named Detective Norman.

Tommy insists that he doesn't expect something for nothing, and that what he knows can help bring down a notorious mob boss named Salieri. Norman, still skeptical, demands to hear the ...

PS2 Feature | Major League Baseball 2K8

Every week we get hundreds of cheat submissions from our readers to add to CheatPlanet. Only a few of these actually survive the brutal, razor-sharp scrutiny and testing we put them through, and emerge as the fine cheat flavored paste that we put onto CheatPlanet. Most of the leftovers we just throw away, flush them down the internet tube never to be seen again. However, there are a few exceptionally stinky cheats that we feel ...

PS2 Feature | Manhunt
Fighting people head-on is a no-no in Manhunt. It's all about catching them unawares - and the longer you stalk them, the more vicious Cash is. There are three kill types - Hasty, Violent and Gruesome - and loads of weapons. Read on the read the nastiest of the kills. Hasty… Plastic bag Cash simply jams the bag over the hunter's head and then chokes him until he crumples to his knees and dies. Comes complete with horrible "I can't breathe" animations. Violent… Plastic bag Cash ...

PS2 Feature | Manhunt
Working as a games journalist has its good points. There's the fame, the money, the endless barrage of adoring, screaming women who follow you whenever you walk down the street... oh, wait a minute, that's being a rock star. Um... ok, well at least there's still the free stuff we get sent 'most every day. The quality varies considerably, but there are some real gems of PR merchandising that would probably be worth loads of money on eBay. Of course, by contract we're not allowed to sell them, ...

PS2 - Manhunt 2 - Banned in Europe

Sega Superstars Tennis looked like an innocent enough release. How could a game about Sonic, Ulala and NiGHTS ever risk being banned in Europe? Or so you might think. Welcome to the crazy world of gaming politics, where zombies hug you and countries issue blanket bans ...

PS2 - Manhunt 2 - 50 Reasons you're a crappy customer

Not too long ago GR threw a big ol' pillow fight we called The Week of Hate. We got a lot of crap off our chest, and the internet rejoiced in the only way it knows how: with an amusingly disproportionate amount of resentment. And that’s beautiful! We’re all about venting here. It’s extremely therapeutic.

So, when the employees of an actual Minnesota game store sent us a list of the 50 things they hate about their customers, we couldn’t help but chuckle in agreement. Our office contains more than a few veterans of retail, and we can confirm that many of you stroll into your local GameStop completely unaware of how much of an ass you are.

Consumers: The time has come to educate yourself! Because for most of you, it’s not a question of which number below represents you - it’s how many. ...

PS2 - Manhunt 2 - Box Art F'ups

Derp! Ready the eBay accounts, cause that company that prints game box art - Acme Video Game Box Art Co. Inc. Ltd., we believe they’re called - pulled a gargantuan boner and misprinted a shitload of our favorite titles. We don’t mean to call them out, but we can’t allow the public to be misled. ...

PS2 Feature | Manhunt 2
21st Dec, 2007 So, the BBFC has decided to take the Manhunt 2 debacle a step further. You might remember that last week the games UK ban was finally overturned by the Video Appeals Commission. Cue much rejoicing and popping of corks all round at Rockstar. But now things are different. Rather than accepting the decision, the BBFC has decided to take the matter to the High Court for a judicial ...
