Hustle Kings is a pool game available exclusively on the Playstation Network for $10. The game was released prematurely in the UK (or just a month late in the States), so it took me a while to get my hands on it, but the videos and screenshots built up enough hype for me that I grabbed it the moment I could. I’m a big fan of playing pool in real-life… I can’t play it often, due to the lack of owning a table, but when I do play,... Read→
Earlier in the week, I posted an article about the Apple tablet (unannounced at the time), and about whether or not it would be a gaming device. Well, it was announced yesterday, with the name for release in 60 (now 59) days. But still, the question remains — Is it a gaming device? The verdict? Well, yes, but not any more than the iPhone is a gaming device. It’s really all up to the third-party developers to bring content to these devices,... Read→
It’s very difficult to compare the today’s video game industry with the video game industry of ten or twenty years ago, as so many things have changed. Latest generation consoles, with their hi-speed online connectivity and impressive graphics power are much more advanced than the old school ones like Sega Channel, but what about certain popular genres that have never quite been able to make the jump to this generation of consoles? To be... Read→
Mass Effect 2 is coming out in stores later this week and not surprisingly the sex scenes have already made their way online. This first sex scene above takes place with Miranda Lawson and is the best of the Mass Effect 2 sex scenes we have seen so far. Miranda shows the most skin but you don’t really see much happen since this is a video game and not an adult film. Same goes for all the love scene videos as they’re all just a big tease. This...

This is the official launch trailer for Mass Effect 2 from BioWare. This video gives you an idea of the seriousness of the grim situation facing Commander Shepard. The Illusive Man and his Cerberus group have recruited you to stop humanity from falling prey to the Collectors, a race of insectoid aliens who are stealing humans from across the galaxy. As Shepard, you must assemble a squad of assassins, savages, psychotics, scientists and soldiers... Read→
Hacker extraordinaire George Hotz (more commonly known as his internet alias, Geohot, and most well-known for his iDevice jailbreak called “Blackra1n“), claims to have finally hacked the previously impenetrable Playstation 3 console. With both other consoles in the current generation hacked beyond belief, this could be breaking news. On his blog is where he makes the claim. I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV... Read→
Apple has a rumored tablet computer coming up (hopefully to be announced at their January 27th event), and reports are coming in that it may be marketed as a gaming device, at least partially. Apple has been edging their way into the gaming industry via the iPhone and iPod touch devices, due to the App Store’s many quality games from third-party developers. They’re cheap and they’re fun. And it looks like Apple might be shooting... Read→
Blizzard’s highly-awaited action RPG Diablo III is a long way away, without any news for a while and no set release date (or year, even). Luckily, there are a few games out there that will hold you off until its release, one of which is Torchlight. If you’re a fan of action RPGs, this is one to check out. Torchlight is made by Runic Games, which is a team of developers who’ve got experience in this area. The company is comprised... Read→
Once again stepping into the role of the heroic Commander Shepard, gamers get to command their own crew sent on a suicide mission into deep space. Players must assemble their squad from amongst the galaxy’s most powerful mystics, geniuses, and convicts and lead them on a suicide mission to discover why humans have been vanishing from the galaxy. The success of the mission hinges on the squad recruited and their loyalty to the mission.... Read→
The Playstation Network is an awesome platform for developers to get their games to the masses. The equivalent to the Xbox Live Marketplace, it has a wide variety of games, as well as other goodies. We’re going to focus on the games, though, and I’m here to tell you about the best of the rest. There are lots of games to choose from, but you don’t want your money going to waste… I’ve tried a good bit of Playstation Network... Read→
