See Mafia 2 and get ... a haircut
We, as it turns out, are in a race with PR to the end of civilization. It goes a little like this: they keep coming up with more obstinately dumb ways to promote games and, since we too are dumb, we fall for it and write about it. Then they get dumber and we have to write about it harder. And so ...

BioShock Infinite images catch fleeting glimpses of Columbia
Irrational Games has let loose several BioShock Infinite screenshots. Each one depicts an unsettling scene: a gun-toting news vendor, a candid shot of the dark-eyed Elizabeth, and some nut conducting an orchestra for the clouds. In fact, that conductor fellow kinda looks like Andrew Ryan, but ...
Preview: NBA 2K11's Jordan Challenge mode
NBA 2K11 has everything to lose this year.
