What you see above is the old Left 4 Dead box art (left), and the new one (right). It’s like one of those ‘can you spot the difference?’ games in the funny section of the newspaper.

It looks like those frugal Europeans are showing up in droves because of the latest 360 price drop. The new price of 199 pounds makes it over 100 pounds cheaper than the PS3…. and the results are predictable. For the past 2 weeks 360 has been trouncing the PStriple and this past week it was [...]
Everybody seems to love Harmonix for their gift that keeps on giving (for a price), Rock Band. Everyone except gamers whose sole console is the Nintendo Wii, that is. Rock Band 1 for Wii was literally gimped compared to its Xbox 360 and PS3 counterparts. Without downlodable content or online play Wii owners sided with [...]

As if you haven’t heard enough of Soulja Boy in the past couple of weeks. When not reviewing Braid, Soulja Boy spends his time updating his Soulja Blog (I hope that isn’t actually called that) with videos, some of which showcase his more compassionate, less-annoying side. In this particular video Sir Tell ‘Em talks about [...]
Sheng Long, a character that started as an April Fool’s Day joke, and whose name was created via faulty translation, is finally going to appear in a Street Fighter game. This is one of those weird fan service things where there was enough hype about the non-existent Sheng Long that they had to eventually include [...]
