Rumor: ‘Mass Effect 3’ Getting Four-Player Co-Op Mode. Frak Yeah!
The deluge of Mass Effect 3 splooge continues to wash over my welcoming body today. There’s a good chance that Mass Effect 3 is going to get some substantial co-op missions. Boom!
FemShep To Be On ‘Mass Effect 3’ CE Box Art, Get Her Own Trailer. Win.
I play as a female Shepard in the Mass Effect games. I play as females in almost any game. I enjoy my protagonists to be powerful, assertive ladies.

The Original Xbox Controller Coming Back For ‘Halo Fest’, Dreck Lives!
The original Xbox and its controller were ungodly behemoths. Spat forth from a scabbed vagina of ill-fated design choices. Thankfully Microsoft fixed the controller problem mid-cycle and released one that you know, could be wielded by human beings. Time has passed though, and now they’re hilarious throwbacks. A shitty diaper of controller we can all laugh at.
Microsoft knows this, which is why they’re bringing them back for Halo Fest.

Nod! Smile! Repeat!

The Mega-Police-World-Wide-Search-Ninjas have finally stapled down three people involved in the PSN hacks. This is all thanks to the Spanish Police, no doubt taking top secret orders from the robots who control the World Economy and run Sony.
‘Call of Duty’ Creators Working On Sci-Fi Shooter. Frak Yeah!
Jason West and Vince Zampella are the creators of Call of Duty, and also the two heads who got jettisoned out of Infinity Ward last year in that enormous story of subterfuge and corporate espionage. The two of them have rallied by creating Respawn Entertainment, and we’re finally getting word of their first game. A sci-fi shooter. Fuck yes.
Nintendo Stock Drops After ‘Wii U’ Reveal.
Despite dropping the ‘Wii U’ on the very expecting asses of the gaming public, worst secret ever, Nintendo’s stock has been dropping this week. I don’t see why! Revealing a console with no first-party games, a gimmicky tablet controller, and footage of third-party games culled from footage from the other systems is a recipie for rock! Not!
