Earlier we posted up a short compilation video featuring Nyko’s upcoming Wii products. Now we’ve got the PS3 accessories all nicely consolidated to this one HD streaming clip for you. The PS3 Slim Media Hub with remote is sexy stuff. Enjoy! {hwdvs-player}id=953{/hwdvs-player}
Question: how much alcohol can a man drink without paying for it? Answer: at least $100, because we all did tonight. And that’s to say nothing of the food, which was nothing short of stunning and delectable in every sense of the word. Look behind you, there’s a guy with Kung Pao Chicken. Not just Kung Pao Chicken, mind you, but the best Kung Pao Chicken you might have...[Read More]
Man, am I high on Heavy Rain. After what seems like and endless amount of games where I’m shooting nazis, terrorists, aliens, and whatever the hell else, it’s a breath of fresh air to play something that looks, feels, and plays altogether different from almost everything else out there. I absolutely adored the “Mad Jack” sequence we got to play at last year’s E3, and ...[Read More]
Hey all, We’ve received a few messages from readers about how they are unable to seek around within our CES 2010 videos we’ve posted. We have discovered the problem is with our video encoder and have since corrected the issue. The previously posted videos will not be fixed, but all future videos should work fine. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks to everyone who gave ...[Read More]
Nyko, the major third-party gaming accessories manufacturer, had quite a few cool items to show off at this year’s expo. During our meeting, we threw together a few quick product tours for you. Here’s the first of the three–this one’s centered on the Wii accessories: {hwdvs-player}id=952{/hwdvs-player}
For me, MAG was a rather unknown quantity in Sony’s library. Forging an identity out of its player cap (that’s still an astonishing 256, folks); I assumed its hook was in its promise and its premise, not the mechanics or the likelihood of it all actually working. Silly me to doubt Zipper; if tonight Playstation Blog event, which we more or less crashed, was any indication, MAG is the r...[Read More]
What’s worse than a clown? How about a wheelchair-bound (gay?) clown who berates random women and pushes candy? Thank God what happens in Vegas… well, you know the rest. {hwdvs-player}id=950{/hwdvs-player}
I don’t think there’s any company out there who is better suited to reenter the 8-bit classic gaming design arena than Capcom. Having said that, here they are positing to us that they’ve found some sort of “lost” code that amounted to a game which was never released in the 80s called Dark Rift. Even PR has been told to feed this line to the press jokingly and with a very heavy dose of sarcasm, whi...[Read More]
If you loved Mega Man 9, you’ll feel right at home with 10. At least, that’s my initial impressions based on the 75% of one new level I played today at our private Capcom meeting at CES. Although I’m forbidden from disclosing the name of the boss’s level I played through, I can provide video of the level and give you my brief thoughts on how I thought it felt. Well, it felt like Mega Man. And that...[Read More]
So CES hasn’t even started yet. And yet it sure feels like it to us. Yesterday we attended the Lenovo “Blogger Nights” party, which felt more like your average full-on press meeting than anything concocted to please the blogging crowd. The food was pretty darn good (I hear the fondue was amazing, but I was busy chatting it up with some of the Lenovo staff), and the alcohol was ac...[Read More]
Because we all get along so well here at DC. {hwdvs-player}id=946{/hwdvs-player}
Ahh, CES. As a gaming journalist, you have to love it. It’s a lot like E3, except instead of actually doing work you just walk around and act like you’re important, handing your card to everyone. Plus, everyone is always passing out endless caches of free paraphernalia to members of the press, so you generally leave with a suitcase packed with practically useless (yet awesome) junk. My...[Read More]
