Did Peter Molyneux start working on Halo games when I wasn’t paying attention? Are jokes about Peter Molyneux’s love of over exaggeration still funny? Either way, the thing in the quotation marks up there is a direct quote from Stephen McGill, Microsoft’s Director of Entertainment. That position sounds a lot like something Leonard F. Chikarason would be doing if he worked for Microsoft. Exactly one of you got that reference, and I salute you for it.
From McGill’s interview with CVG:
It is a shame that it wasn’t October, I love alliteration. Anyway, the mystical gaming on demand service OnLive has officially announced a launch date for those of us who dwell in the US of A. Mark your calendars folks, because this thing hits in mid June and should have systematically destroyed all of the gaming world’s paradigms by July. It should be noted that this is only an announcement about the cloud gaming service being available to computer users, ..read the full article
Final Fantasy XIII comes out this week for PS3 and 360. Yep, that’s pretty much all you need to know. Actually the game is already out as of today, so you should go buy it because it’s suppose to be pretty dope. There are other games coming out this week but none come close to what FFXIII has to offer, well at least for me. Okay, now I gotta get back to playing. Hit the jump for the full list ..read the full article
Unless this is the first time you’ve ever visited this site* – you probably noticed that we’ve inverted the color palette on the Blog. The aim wasn’t to save your eyesight (though this configuration apparently is easier on your eyes), and we didn’t just make a change for change’s sake.
Rather, we “bleached” the Blog to match our big brother, us.PlayStation.com. In case you haven’t clicked over to the homepage (and you should right now), we’ve redesigned the site to ..read the full article
What!? You thought I was done!? You thought the endless list of New Vegas bullet points had actually ended!? Well, you were wrong!!
As Ripten’s resident Vault Dweller, I have managed to compile even more information on Obsidian’s upcoming sure to be best selling gigantasaurus megahit, Fallout: New Vegas. Read or die mutant scum!!
During the opening sequence: the courier (that being you) is executed with a headshot. No ambush. Character look creation: Mitchell holds a mirror in front of your ..read the full article
Avalanche have finally released the demo for Just Cause 2 today, which you can find on Steam (if you so wish). It’s 2 Gb on XP and 3 Gb on Vista/7 according to the system specs. This might be something to do with the fact that it’s bloody huge.
They boasted 35 square miles, and although I’m not sure of that, it is a huge space for a demo to take place. They’ve also done the sensible thing and limited you ..read the full article

If you haven’t heard yet, Activision escorted former Infinity Ward Studio leads Vince Zampella and Jason West out of their lovely office space bouncer style on March 1st, just a few short days ago. The publisher is reporting that the two were performing acts that they believe to be “breaches of contract” and “insubordination.” However, Jason and Vince have no plans of going down without a fight.
The two state that Activision hired a ..read the full article
The Square Enix online review embargo gets lifted tonight for all of the outlets covering the upcoming state side release, but that wasn’t soon enough for the team at GamesRadar. They either can’t tell time or don’t give a flying fuck about the embargo. I’m going to go with the flying fuck. My guess is, it’s ok to break embargo dates as long as you give the game a 10.

I wanted to drop in and deliver some truly exciting news – on behalf of everyone here at Zipper Interactive, I’m pleased to announce that SOCOM 4 is indeed in development and is slated for release exclusively on PlayStation 3 this fall.
Of course, as with any new announcement, what you really want to know are the details: Who’s in your squad? Where have they been deployed? What kind of threat are they up against? Though we’ll be revealing the ..read the full article
Yesterday amidst exploding PS3s and Activision’s military coup against Infinity Ward, something even stranger happened. For those who haven’t yet stared bleary eyed at the coverage of the most recent, and unannounced, Portal update and uncovered the sugary goodness inside it, let’s recap. Quietly and with no explanation, an update was put into effect for the brilliantly engrossing (and now nearly three years old) Portal that said only that it “changed radio transmission frequency to comply with federal and state ..read the full article
Today we announced that we have purchased Media Molecule, creators of the beloved

Later that month on April ..read the full article
The PC, Xbox, and PS3 demo for Just Cause 2 is coming on March 4th, and supposedly it gives you a full 35 Square miles of land to play around in. The area includes lots of towns, mountains, and other stuff, so it should be rather entertaining.
That said, the Demo for Fuel had a similar, if not bigger, play area to drive around. This of course meant that it was bloody ridiculous to get around. It took at least 20 ..read the full article

Oh, don’t let me forgot to mention the return of the Blue Bomber in Mega Man 10 for the Wii. That should be dope. Hit the jump for the full list ..read the full article
