The era of the GameCube, Xbox and the PlayStation 2 has arrived at its end. Sure, a few great titles will squeak out for the PS2 - but the other two are total goners, and the days of big-budget hits - and innovative games - are far behind all three of them. The PC, meanwhile, is entering into a new era thanks to the advent of Windows Vista and the game-powering DirectX 10 that comes bundled with it. Obviously, the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii have established themselves. It's time to move ...

Wii Feature | The Godfather: Blackhand Edition
The funny thing about inventing a genre of videogames is that, until it becomes completely played out, every game that emulates your formula is going to be attached to your name. Games that feature a wide-open, freely explorable world, for example, will have a hard time avoiding the label of "Grand Theft Auto clone," especially if their worlds are littered with vehicles to steal and drive. In the six years since Grand Theft Auto III, a slew of games have tried to become "the next GTA," but so ...

Wii Feature | No More Heroes
At one time, the curiously-titled Killer 7 was a hot property in the video game world. New trailers created either curiosity or excitement in gamers and journalists wondered loudly whether we were about to see the worlds first post-modern game, one that would infuse life in the shooter genre and exist purely as “art” because of its bizarre cel-shaded graphics. Maybe they wondered a little too loudly ‘cause once the game hit retail, the review scores were low - mainly due to ...

We cant deny that, despite being unfeeling binary illusions, video game chicks are hot. Wed delve into the deep psychological curiosities that make these digital fantasies so appealing to libidinous male gamers, but its more fun to just show you how the hormone-infused gaming community has sexed up some of the most popular games ever. Whether the developers intentionally created the titillating features, or they were modded by pubescent hackers, theyre hot (if a bit misogynistic and creepy), ...

The official trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV is only a few days away as of this writing, and publisher Rockstar has promised that it won't just be some infuriatingly quick teaser. Instead, it'll offer up the first substantial look into what the game is all about, and internet speculation over what that might be has kicked the rumor mill into high gear. We've got our own theories on what the game might be like, ranging from a futuristic dystopia with flying cars to a college-crime romp ...

We Love: Drac's Back: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night has finally hit Xbox Live, giving new gamers a chance to see why this one game redefined the series (and created a formula it still employs today). 800 points for one of the best 2D games ever made? Yes, please. Now, if only Konami would make more 2D Castlevanias for full-sized consoles... Ace Combat soars to Xbox 360: We're not gonna lie - having exclusive screens, info and interviews for Ace Combat 6 made our whole damn week. Check ...

In the videogame industry, few jobs outside of the actual production of games are as vital as those of public-relations personnel. Standing between the public and busy developers, it's their job to make sure that information trickles out to the press and that a game's intended audience is good and hyped for it by the time it hits stores. But things don't always go as planned, and whether it's the fault of bad marketing, overzealous developers or just piss-poor self-representation, things ...

Men killing men in videogames is as commonplace as fortuitously placed exploding barrels. Murder. Death. Violence. It's our staple diet. Almost impossible to find, however, is the act of two men sharing the gentle warmth of a kiss. Why do games shun the tenderness of man, yet celebrate his atrocities...? We don't know. And we don't really care. If we're completely honest, it's really just a rambling and fairly flimsy attempt to justify our brilliant new movie of men kissing men in games. ...

Wii Feature | Spider-Man 3
Spider-Man 3's got a lot to live up to. Even after the three years since Spider-Man 2 was released, it has yet to be bettered as the benchmark for how to make a superhero game. No one's offered the same sense of freedom. No one's managed to capture the essence of the hero they're trying to copy and, more importantly, no one has managed to make a game that's anywhere near as much fun as Spider-Man 2 was. This May, though, all that's about to change - as Treyarch, the guys who amazed us way back ...
