Note that I do put my opinion in this, which may or may not be the same as yours. Just a fair warning.
crysis 2 to have 50 hour multiplayer fun??
That depends on the person, but Crytek seems to think so. Also, the campaign is supposed to take 10 hours for average gamers, so I'm calculating about 7 and a half hours for core gamers like moi.
twisted metal set for **Fall, 2011
Edit: A Sony spokesperson has confirmed Twisted Metal will be released in Fall, not Spring.
YES! F*CKIN' YES!
YES! F*CKIN' YES!
metro 2034 to compete with cod?
THQ is trying to make Metro 2034 compete with Call of Duty. I hate Call of Duty, but I'm gonna doubt it, but you never know. No one knew Crysis 2 would be pretty decent or Killzone 3 to completely kick CoD's ass (in my opinion), so you really can't make an actual judgement. Whatever.
mass effect 3 composer not to be original mass effect composer
I'm sure many of you care, but the Mass Effect series has been unlikable from the beginning from the first game's lack of fun and the second's horrible attempt at being a shooter. Well, they're better than Mindjack, I guess.
uh, so RDR really is going for the bafta awards?
Didn't Rockstar Games say about 2 or 3 months ago that they wouldn't go for the BAFTA award? But now they've entered in for it? What the hell? Well, Red Dead Redemption probably deserves it.
homefront pre-order get metro 2033 for free on steam
Wow, getting a good deal of Steam. Never thought that would happen (yes, that was sarcasm). If you pre-order Homefront on Steam, the get the great and underrated Metro 2033 for FREE! For gamers who have the rig (myself not included), you should go ahead and do this. Homefront is shaping up to be a damn fine looking game and it would be stupid to miss out on any deal like that. Well, time will tell when I review it. Wait, you don't really read the mainstream, do you?
Homefront releases on March 15 in the US of f*ckin' A and March 18 for the UK (British accents are honourable)

cliffy b says something stupid as usual
In usual Cliffy fashion, he shows his true colors as a 360 fanboy by saying on his Twitter, "The real reason
Bulletstorm was built was because Gears [of
War]
wasn't ready for this spring and we needed a product to
fuck with
Killzone." He was being sarcastic about the production of Bulletstorm, but Cliffy there has a record of saying stupid shit just to piss off fans of Sony franchises because they don't involve big, burly space marines with deep voices to hold him at night.
"Diablo-related concept to be explored for consoles"
At DICE yeserday, someone very important at Blizzard told about their thoughts on bringing Diablo III to consoles. Fans of Blizzard may now this man as CEO Michal Morhaime.
"I think you could make an argument that a game like Diablo might play very well on a console. It's something that we're actually doing an investigation into to see if that could make sense."
He also nodded his head to say yes when asked is Diablo would require the least amount of effort to bring to consoles, though they had said that hey would need to fix a few problems, much like Runic Games is doing to bring Torchlight to XBL.

ubisoft pisses on pc rainbow six fans
How do they do that? Well, there is a small group of modders who, as fans of the Rainbow Six franchise, tried to bring in new fans by updating Rainbow Six 3 in a mod called RavenShield 2.0. It was to do the following:
Annnnd now it's all gone because they told to modders to shut it down. Pricks.
- Updated weaponry visuals and effects
- Add in important factors of realism
- A new menu system
- A HUD and GUI
- Redone character models
- Upgraded AI with refined terrorist thoughts and behaviors
- New goggles
- Display for damage
Annnnd now it's all gone because they told to modders to shut it down. Pricks.
Activision cancels true crime
Now you see why I hate this company. So, they canceled the only game that looked good? And for WHAT?? They'll cancel True Crime, a game that I was genuinely looking forward to as a fan of the first two games, whilst keeping Call of Duty alive? *sobs* F*CK YOU ACTI!
Black Ops dlc "first strike" sells 1.4 million copies on day 1
$15 for three maps for a shitty game? *Facepalm* And you people wonder why I fear for gamers when I say God of War sucks you keep playing it. It's because of this crap right here: 1.4 million gamers buying overpriced DLC for $60 of DLC. Great job, humanity!
New bungie game to be announced next week
Good, but why does Acti have to publish? I hate Activision and their stupid greedy milking. Which leads us the the bit of news above, don't it?

5 new downloadable titles coming to PSN on February 15
There's three PSX titles coming with this update. They are Destregra, Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire, and Saiyuki: Journey West (WTF kind of name is that?) as well as two PS3 downloadables. The first part of Back to the Future: The Game, Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet - The Thanos Throwdown (think it's long enough??).
The good and the bad #1
Good: Guitar Hero is finally dead! FUCK YES!
Bad: They're doing it to place, get this, MORE FOCUS ON CALL OF FUCKING DUTY! Oh. My. God. What the hell, Acti? Like CoD hasn't been milked enough? Give me five franchises with more than 10 or so games, if you could. If you don't, I'm gonna go all Sodom and Gomorrah on this series.

uprising against fox news' bulletstorm comment??
Evidently, FOX News decided to go into the one realm where they do NOT belong: video games. Of course, they started talking about how kids as young as 9 years old could suffer psychological damage my playing Bulletstorm due to it's VERY mature content. WTF? I'm a Conservative and I like watching Glenn Beck or listening to Bill's opinion on things, but every time FOX News has gone into gaming, they've made themselves look like dumbasses. To further this, they interviewed Carol Lieberman who said,"The increase in rapes can be attributed in large part to the playing out of scenes in video games". The "scenes" she is talking to is sexual scenes. How many "M for Mature" games off the top of your head have some dude graphically doing some naked chick? None, that's why there's an AO rating. It's almost like when FOX said that Mass Effect should have the AO rating because there's a little side boob. It's friggin' stupid.
Well, it seems many gamers and gaming sites have been up in arms about this, but why? You think bitching about it is making you have a better image? Leave FOX News to their stupid thoughts on video games and go on your merry way.

battlefield 3 to not have commander feature
Well, that kinda sucks. That was an awesome feature! While I never had Battlefield 2, I had Battlefield 2142 and that's where I know it from. It was a good feature, enabling the commander of his squad to tell them where to go and what to do for supreme tactical goodness. I'm gonna miss it. Well, I didn't miss it on BC2, but that isn't quite the same.
torchlight coming to xbla march 9
If you missed the PC version of Torchlight, you can get it on XBLA on March 9th for 1200 Microsoft points. This port of the 2009 PC game is kinda "consoleized", as I like to call it, due to a HUD change and control downgrade. I say downgrade because you simply can't beat playing Diablo-esque RPGs on the PC. YOu simply can't and that's a FACT. I love my console as much as the next guy, but if I were gonna play Torchlight, I'd either go to the store and get it, or jump and Steam and grab it for the same price with better gameplay. And it's not like the game has high system requirements if I can manage to play it on this PoS.
Wow, I'm really putting my opinion into these things, aren't I?

man going up for trial for allegedly having sex with girl he wed in game
Well, to put it quite bluntly, this saggy-balled man that's older than friggin' Jesus decided to fuck some 13 year-old 3 times last year in Detroit. But get this, it wasn't rape. The girl decided to let said saggy-balled ban put his 6000 year-old penis inside of her 3 times. Now THAT is just nasty. I swear, slutty girls these days...

Konami Buys north american hudson soft, shuts down studio
That's right, Hudson Soft NA is gone. This might sadly remove Bomberman Live and Battlefest from the XBL Marketplace, which is a shame because Bomberman is friggin' awesome.
SOCOM 4 beta in killzone 3, also to have 3d
If you manage to grab a copy of Killzone 3 fast enough, you may get into the beta of SOCOM 4. Whether or not Move support is there is yet to be seen, but the game is also set to have 3D! Sweet, even if I don't have a 3DTV nor care about them.
