Notch's new space game is called ... Mars Effect?! [April Fools!]

I wish this was a real product. Y U TEASE?

Gameloft cleared after 'crunch' probe (ouch)

It's only good news to the employees if the allegations are, in fact, false. I suspect they are, in fact, true, but to say so without support from co-workers means you lose your career.

Diablo 3 has a gambling problem in South Korea

The game was ever exciting? I mean, if you find lucky dice rolls to be exhilarating, go play Yahtzee. Seriously, the "great item hunt" sucks.

Dear Article Author: I saw whut u did thar, and I lol'd.

uDraw hasn't fared so well on Xbox 360 and PS3, THQ lowers its forecast

Dec 8th 2011 11:32AM (Joystiq)
I bought this for my children, who do love to draw and make videos, including stop-motion animation, with the PS3. It was going to be a Christmas present. However, if sales of the tablet are indeed poor, then there will not be software forthcoming on the PS3 that uses it. I might therefore need to take it back and get the Wii version just so there will be other things to do with it.

So... this seems like a self-fulfilling prophecy. The report of bad sales worsens sales, whodathunkit.

PSN game sharing to become more exclusive

I actually own 2 ps3s and was planning on a third. Guess not anymore.

Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy 5 and 6 all coming to PSN in coming weeks

I have Chrono Cross. It has never worked right on any of my PS3s. Does this mean they've fixed the PS1 emulation software on the PS3?

Playdead boss says retail model is 'broken,' awaits digital revolution

... the metacritic score can be rendered moot by a sufficiently comprehensive demo.

Playdead boss says retail model is 'broken,' awaits digital revolution

I refuse to buy games as digital downloads whose price is greater than $20. Why? Because $20 is the projected loss I would take on buying a disc-based game new, and selling it used when done with it.

I also refuse to purchase games with features intended to discourage used game sales (online passes, let's say) because that increases the loss I would take on selling their crap game later beyond the expected $20.

I typically don't buy a lot of digital games at the $20 price point either. The game would have to have a metacritic score in the high 90s for that to happen. Frankly, at $10, I consider Pac-Man CE DX to be the best money I've ever spent on any game ever.

Devs can whine all they want. Used game sales aren't theft; they are a market reaction to the lowering value of games whose prices are eternally increasing. Authors have no just complaints against used book sales; neither do auto manufacturers about used vehicle sales. Games aren't special.

Retro City Rampage turns on the Biffsignal

Dear Article Writer, are you sure it isn't a reference to B1FF, the mythical net n00b who invented 1337 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B1FF) , and 2600, the hacking magazine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2600:_The_Hacker_Quarterly)?

Just askin'!
