Some positive and negative news to report on the Street Fighter IV front. The game is coming home February 17th in the US, and Europeans will have their hands on it February 20th. No word on the PC release, so as of now, that date only applies to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. On [...]

By storing the console version of your character within your EA account, you can then play the mobile version with that same character. You’ll boost your stats in certain categories which then affect the other. The stat boost will [...]

Those that have toiled over their creation in Little Big Planet might be a little angry if they’re one of the affected users of Sony’s deletion hammer. Levels that violate copyright, even those that barely even qualify, have been removed in their entirety. Even one level based off of God of War (A Sony franchise) [...]

Well, that was quick. You could almost count the days since its release, and fans are already getting extra stuff for Mega Man 9. Wii owners are the the first out of the gate, with 360 owners waiting an extra day, and PS3 players forced to wait for the usual Thursday update. The content includes [...]

Someone in quality control is in a lot of trouble right now. With only a few days to go until release, Sony announced the game had been recalled. The reason? One of the included songs made references to the Qur’an. No, not offensive references such as the debacle that was Kakuto Chojin, but just lines [...]

While we’re still waiting for the actual full game, the Prologue for Gran Turismo 5 is getting beefier. The automatic update adds three new cars. GT by Citroen concept car, the Ferrari California, and the Lotus Evora are included, and it’s all for free. In addition to the cars, a couple of gameplay tweaks have been [...]

One of the surprise announcements coming out of E3 was MAG, a 256-player online shooter that sounds, needless to say, epic. However, a survey by Sony and then reported by Bitbag, states 15 questions that relate to pricing. The game may (supposedly) charge a yearly or monthly fee to play, which certainly goes against Sony’s [...]

When WipeOut HD launched, the world was happy… at least those members of the populace who didn’t have a 50+ person friends list. Those that did were hit with various issues such as freezing. Basically, you had an unplayable game. Well, the patch is coming (and depending on when you’re reading this, already out). Great [...]

While there were fears to the contrary, it turns out those folks from down under will get a version of Rock Band after all. Sure, it’s only the first game and it’s way overdue (by about nine months), but it’s better than nothing in the end. Oh, and Australians won’t be getting a bundle. They’ll [...]

There’s something wrong with Mega Man 9: It doesn’t fit. That’s not necessarily a knock against the game itself, but purely a poor design call by Capcom. Why have we went back all the way to Mega Man 1 and 2, when the last game was on the PlayStation and Saturn? The true 8-bit stylings run [...]

Gee Sony, think its about time to push these things into stores? The competition is killing you. The pre-paid PlayStation Network cards have been available at Meijer stores (thankfully, right down the street from me) for a little while, but that’s about it. The rest of the populace has been left out in the cold. [...]

Considering they release new tracks every week and have sold millions of them, the least Harmonix could do is offer some freebies. Thankfully, that confirmation has happened. While details aren’t finalized, the company did at least confirm we’ll be getting 20 tracks “sometime this fall” with no strings attached for Rock Band 2. No song [...]
