PS2 News | 50 Cent Bulletproof
Interweb whispers currently suggest that work is underway on a PS2 and Xbox game starring 50 Cent (or around 26p at today's exchange rate). It's not clear at present who's publishing or even developing the game, although we have heard that the never-knowingly-unshot Cent is writing an original soundtrack for the title. As for the gameplay, it's said to be extremely adult in tone, with no shortage of violence and, as you'd imagine, lots of guns. In addition to Curtis himself, there is also ...

PS2 News | Aeon Flux
Majesco Games has announced it is to publish the videogame version of Aeon Flux, the sci-fi film starring Oscar starlet and all-round beauty Charlize Theron that is itself based on the quirky Liquid Television cartoon of the same name. While the original cartoon (that aired on the Liquid Television MTV line-up alongside Beavis & Butthead) featured a busty, scantily clad, scarily gun-happy monster of a woman, the film - and as such the game - will feature a much subtler character, better ...

PS2 News from N4G | Alone in the Dark
PS2 - Alone in the Dark - Alone In The Dark Control Work Around That Gaming Site Writes: "Since it's release Alone in the Dark has received some pretty harsh criticism regarding the control scheme. Even we here at That Gaming Site admit the controls could use some work! Atari has taunted us with a patch that may never make it to the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game! Instead of waiting for the day that may never come we have found a way to make your experience with the controls a little more tolerable!"

PS2 - Alone in the Dark - Atari Actually Posts a Profit in Q1 Gamedaily.biz writes: "Break out the champagne. After endless losses, Atari has posted a net income of $3.5 million for its first quarter. The release of Alone in the Dark was a big factor.

A couple weeks ago French publisher Infogrames reported its own first quarter fiscal results, revealing a 91 percent rise in sales, which was driven in large part by a "strong recovery" of the U.S. business (i.e. Infogrames' subsidiary Atari). Today, Atari announced its own fiscal results, and Infogrames wasn't kidding: Atari posted a profit of $3.5 million for the quarter, a vast improvement from the net loss of $11.9 million during the same period last year."

PS2 - Alone in the Dark - Atari: Positive Alone in the Dark reviews keep coming Videogamer writes: "Atari has revealed it wants more from its major summer release, Alone in the Dark, despite the title placing at No.1 in the Xbox 360 chart and at No.3 in the All Formats chart.

"The positive review scores continue to come in and marketing support is scheduled to run through to the end of August," Atari product manager Ben Walker told MCV. "Our target now is to build upon the start and keep Alone in the Dark selling through-out the summer"

We found Alone in the Dark to be one of the most disappointing games of the year so far, scoring only 6/10 despite much early promise and plenty of good ideas"

PS2 - Alone in the Dark - German Gaming Site Claims Atari Pulled Ads & Filed Wrongful Suit Against Them Ripten's Chad Lakkis writes:

"The past few weeks of videogame publisher drama have been for the most part dedicated to the dispute between Tecmo and their former Rockstar/Director Tomonobu Itagaki, however Tecmo will need to move over and make room for another old school publisher.

German videogame site 4players.de claims to be involved in apparent legal battle with Atari stemming from the sites review of "Alone in the Dark", a multiplatform horror/action game published by Atari in June of 2008.

Keeping in mind that the original article is in German, and it is well beyond the "normal" business hours we would utilize to obtain a comment from Atari, we were able to loosely interpret the following information from the public complaint aired on the German gaming site:"
