Wait, did Cliffy confirm GoW2 four player co-op? [update 2]
Update 2: As much as we'd like to think Cliffy was referring to four player co-op, the evidence is proving otherwise. For the time being, let's all let go of our four player co-op dreams until Epic talks deets. Update: It has come to our attention that Cliffy may have actually said "multiple difficu...
Shane Kim talks motion control rumors and more

Epic to set limits on GoW2 achievement progress

Spring Showcase no shows: Halo Wars and Alan Wake

CliffyB: No party system in GOW2 would be "a pretty big f*ckup"
Joystiq managed to grab a second of Cliff Bleszinski's time at Microsoft's Spring Showcase yesterday (seems like everyone did).

X3F Impressions - Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
Alright fanboys, time to get the difficult news out of the way first. Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is not much like its predecessors at all. The main gameplay focus is still on platforming, only it's now platforming with vehicles too. Like most platformers, the specific objectives you have to c...
Cliffy: GoW2 has best cover system ever, trilogy talk
Adding to what we've already learned about GoW2 (thanks to the media's poking and prodding of Cliffy B), the Eurogamer crew got the chance to chat with Cliffy who was more than happy to gloat about the newly reworked cover system in Gears 2 and even talked about the possibility of doing a trilogy. A...
