German “Game Burning” Ends in Failure
After a tragic school shooting in Germany, an advocacy group known as Aktionsbündnis Amoklauf Winnenden staged a “Killer Game Burning,” in which gamers were encouraged to bring their violent video games for incineration inside a dumpster. The group is made up of friends and parents of the victims of the shooting, who must have spent a [...]

Sunday, August 2, 2009
Some people are completely out of touch. Take for instance the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). They banned ads for M-rated video games last year over some rather harmless Grand Theft Auto IV ads on buses and bus stops. In steps the ESA with a lawsuit, saying the ban goes against first amendment rights. What is [...]

In a move that will make investors unhappy (those guys who put up money but don’t actually do anything beyond that), Take Two’s latest major franchise is getting delayed into the first half of 2010.

As expected with any game of this size, Grand Theft Auto IV is getting some fixin’. The actual changes are dull and boring to read about, but for those who have ever froze in the midst of multi-player can attest, these are fine changes. The changes apply to both versions (PS3 and Xbox 360), though [...]

Tuesday, May 6, 2008
For the eccentric fanboy, the always reliable GameVideos has a direct comparison between the two versions of the new Grand Theft Auto. The difference? Good luck finding any. Once could say the PS3 colors are slightly richer, but that could just as easily be the means of recording. There are also a few frame rate [...]
