Hey, guys! Remember when GameStop used to sell legacy games and hardware? Atari, Genesis, you name it. Those were the days, before the company began swallowing up the competition and ditched the retro wares in favor of almost exclusively cramming used copies of week-old releases down your throat. Wouldn’t you like to go back to [...]
Metal Gear Solid isn’t the only series getting some action figure love from Square Enix. The Rocksteady Batman games are also marching in the Play Arts Kai toy line parade. To celebrate the recent release of Arkham City, Batman and Joker figures made their debut. Next in the set comes a battle armor Batman and [...]
Did you know that Rhythm Heaven Fever was getting a special edition? Neither did I. Then I got this box in the mail this morning. I’m pretty sure that this special edition wont be sold in stores, but if Nintendo decides to change its mind on that, they’re sure to make a killing when the game hits [...]
In a bizarre twist of events, Final Fantasy XIII-2 is getting Facebook support. By inputting your social network credentials in the game’s settings, you’ll be able to update your friends on your party structure, story progress, and other useless statistics.

That changed later last year when Walmart said that they would publish some sales data. Today [...]
2011 was the second year in a row in which EA Sports let fans choose the Madden NFL cover athlete, and the people voted 13 million times to whittle down a field of 32 options to put Cleveland Browns running back Peyton Hillis on the cover of Madden NFL 12. This time, EA is expanding [...]
Egoraptor just pooped out a new animation based on Saints Row: The Third. It’s a lot shorter than his more recent vids, clocking in at a mere 11 seconds. However, you’ll probably agree that he successfully managed to condense the key highlights of the game in such a small span of time. Saints Row 3 [...]
Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena‘s opening movie was posted on Atlus’ YouTube channel today. It’s not much more than the Persona characters being announced and posing, so don’t get too excited. Teddy does look like a badass on the main stage, and the music is great, so you can at least enjoy that. [...]
Any gamer of a certain age will be able to bore you extensively talking about two particular arcade games: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and The Simpsons.
