Rumor: These are the NEXT XBOX specs. Maybe. Hell if I know.
Yo! Any tech-wizards care to explain these specs to me? They mean almost nothing. In the sense that I know they mean “things”, but I cannot tell you what those “things” translate to.

Kojima didn’t want RAIDEN’S SILLY ASS for ‘Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance’
Hand it to Kojima. Usually all he wants to do is vomit up nonsensical philosophical cut scenes, and continuing building games where Jesus Christ-Am-I-Crouching-Or-Am-I-Crawling moments occur. However, in the making of Metal Gear Arrogance: Silly Titles Slash time, the good sir had a great fucking idea. To not put Raiden in that title.
Rumor: PLAYSTATION 4 is straight ditching the DUAL SHOCK
Well, shite! Who needs a tried and true controller layout, when a company can roll the dice on shoehorning some sort of shitty LCD screen onto a controller? Fucking no one! Sony is upping their game by downing their game, and the rumor has it they’re being led by the nose into altering their classic controller.
‘DIABLO 3’ director Jay Wilson steps down. What’s next, what’s next?
Jay Wilson was the director of the phenomenally disappointing (for me) Diablo 3. Oh sure, nothing could have came close to the second title. I admit that. Just like how after discovering I had a hairy asshole (hair! in my asshole?! puberty is cray), it was never really a revelation again. Still though, I anticipated at least playing the game more than once. For more than a week. So Jay Wilson, wherever you go, I don’t give a shit. Take care. Goodbye.
Geekcraft: Repainted NINTENDO CONSOLES are hot. That’s saying something.
I say g’damn! Artist Zoki64 has repainted classic Nintendo consoles, giving them a lovely veneer. All shiny-shiny.
DmC: When Angels Die and Fanboys Cry
It’s perhaps only in retrospect that we can see just how contemporary Devil May Cry was upon its release in 2001. The frantic, accelerated combat mechanics represented an industry pushing hardware to have games play as we’d so often wished they would. It was fast, brutal and responsive. It also introduced the series’ main protagonist, Dante, into the gaming public’s consciousness. This smart-assed, pizza-loving, sharp-dressing demon hunter went on to become the archetypical ‘cool’ video game hero. Fuelled by perceptions of the contemporary taken directly from the worlds of Anime and perceived notions of western ‘cool’: Dante was a product of his time and being contemporary was his nature. So, what happens when your contemporary character isn’t quite so cutting edge any longer? You reinvent him, of course.
Bethesda files trademark for ‘FALLOUT’ TV series. Can you dig it?
Well, shit. Maybe Three Dog ain’t returning to the video game hood, but rather providing his voice for a Fallout television series? As much as I would like to wander the Wasteland in an episodic format, I far prefer a new game. What say you?
WII outsells WII U in December. I laugh. A hearty laugh.
Hey! What’s wrong with this world. People aren’t buying a gaming console with a tablet for a controller like Nintendo expected. It is almost like they can play a game on a tablet without having to buy a console. Gasp! Farting sounds. Whomp whomp.
Watch: MARCUS FENIX shaking his groove thang.
Tal Peleg is the wondrous mind behind this outstanding video. Peleg cut a video of the normally bro-tough Fenix shaking his ass for all it was worth. What did it land the intrepid groove-maker? A fucking job in the industry. Not bad. Not bad at all.
‘CYBERPUNK 2077’ TEASER TRAILER: That gorgeous Dystopian rot.
Here be a teaser trailer for the upcoming game Cyberpunk 2077. Nothing much in the form of in-game content. Just some gorgeous CGI, that will whisk you away to a world of pantless lady cyborgs and machine gun fire.
