Microsoft whines, sues Sony… now that’s just sad
Don’t ask why we were surfing the 360 forums. It’s a long, painful story. Even more painful is the sorry reason that Microsoft has decided to hop onto the legal train and sue Sony (besides the fear instilled upon Microsoft by the PS3… or so we’d like to believe). Now, many of us have probably seen the “controversial” list we’ve got at the top of the page. Is it misleading? If you’re ignorant. Here’s why.

Call of Duty 3 to have Online Multiplayer, fo' sho'
Can’t wait to get your hands on another version of the gritty, grim, grimy, greasy (?) battles of World War II? Didn’t get enough of that insane FPS action in the last Call of Duty or Medal of Honor title? Even so… is the thrill of playing through, arguably, the same battles in a different lens not enough? How about some massive online
Behold the new E3: The Game Pro Expo
So, E3 is no longer the crab-attacking, massive damage-inducing, nerdgasm gamestravaganza it once was, but those of us who love gaming for gaming (and not gaming for… the industry of gaming? Development, mostly) shouldn’t worry too much about the downsizing. Let it be known: the Game Pro Expo (pronounced

Some more Ridge Racer 7 screens and a tiny bit of info
Let’s talk about the information first, because there’s a little bit of everything and it’s not easy to connect it all to a common theme. Ridge Racer 7 has taking a strong focus on the machine customization function lately. Namco promises an almost unlimited customization, stickers, color rings, etc. Also, this will be the first time that a Korean manufacturer’s (Sinseong Motors) car will make an appearance on the Ridge Racer

With that not-unflawless logic in mind, Insomniac’s Ted Price has decided to do just that — answer questions. Let’s listen in to the good ones, shall we?

A trinity of new Unknown Realms screenshots
You may be wondering why, all of a sudden, we’re doing an entire post on a few measly screenshots? Fanboyism, of course! Unknown Realms has been a fairly elusive PS3 title, and for good reason. Kouji Okada is behind this game — for those who are really into knowing the names of people behind their games,

GameStop inconclusive about PS3 pre-orders
Last week, I went to GameStop to pick up a fresh copy of Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria and while I was there, asked about pre-ordering a Playstation 3.
