    Here are a dozen new screenshots from Insomniac’s PS3 FPS Resistance 2, prominently starring the Chimeran beast known as the Leviathan. Well, maybe I shouldn’t say prominently as there are only three screens of the skyscraper-sized monstrosity in the bunch, but they are certainly the […]

    [E3 2008] Super Stardust Goes Portable, Looks Excellent

    Super Stardust Portable didn’t get even the slightest formal announcement at E3, but as shown in Sony’s PSP montage video and these seven first-look screenshots it’s most definitely on the way. Don’t know when it’s supposed to be coming out, how it’s dual analog stick […]

    [E3 2008] Vin Diesel is the Wheelman, But Does Anyone Really Care?

    Every time I see or hear anything new about the Wheelman I can’t help but think back to the disastrous Driv3r, and that frightens me. Wheelman has Vin Diesel starring in it and Vin’s last game, Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, was surprisingly […]

    [E3 2008] Fable II’s Pretty in Concept Art, Kinda Disappointing Graphically

    For an Xbox 360 exclusive as hyped as Fable II, I sorta expected it to look better than it does. Sure, it has a unique artistic charm about it that makes it stand out against other fantasy RPGs, but still, I’m not seeing that it’s […]

    [E3 2008] Ten Confusing Castle Crashers Screenshots

    [E3 2008] Resistance Seeks Retribution on PSP

    After the jaw-dropping graphical displays put on this year by God of War: Chains of Olympus and Crisis Core, I honestly couldn’t imagine PSP games looking any better. But clearly the PSP still has plenty of power left to be tapped into, at least if […]

    [E3 2008] The Conduit Developer Walkthrough and Interview

    The crew at High Voltage Software better be careful about over hyping their Wii-exclusive FPS The Conduit.
