In a re-run of one of themost famous splatfestsin the sequel’s history, the tomato-based table sauce saw a 2-1 victory against its eggy opponent Mayonnaise.

Luc Bernard is awesome. Sure, we gave his game a review so scathing it sparked a war between the creator and our entire community, but I think every industry needs a Luc. Now he’s back, putting his departure from games creation firmly in the pastto reveala WiiWare/iPhone company currently being set up by himself and a friend. Older and (maybe a little) wiser, the self-proclaimed Leader of Pugs has not revealed the name of his new venture, but hehasconfirmed that several games are being worked on....

How’s that for extra motivation? Capturing cool, beautiful, or otherwise standout moments in videogames can be such a joy, and I’m hopeful that more developers will follow the recent examples set byinFamous: Second SonandThe Last of Us Remasteredby including built-in photo tools. Fun for us, good marketing for them. Speaking of the latter game, Naughty Dog is holding a photo contest in the US now through September 5 with prizes like a poster-sized image of your photo signed by the development team and a Joel and Ellie statuette up for grabs....
Or pickaxe, if you prefer The popularPokémonmod featuring over 520 Pokémon is coming to an end after four years. In the latest update, the Pixelmon Team sadly announced that “after a request from the Pokémon company we will be shutting our doors.” Development on the mod has come to an end, but people are continuing to share what’s been made so far and I doubt Nintendo/The Pokemon Company will be able to fully clean out the entire internet of it....
The rewards are still disappointing Nintendo just put a new coat of paint on the My Nintendo website, providing a little bit of Miitomo magic to the whole thing. Instead of clicking on a loose coin to gather it your Mii chases it around, and there’s a few extra animations for your avatar like painting and flying around on balloons. It’s really cute, and really reflects Nintendo’s signature charm. You can also set up a unique User ID for Club Nintendo (find this by clicking the top right icon, then settings, then edit your basic info, and click “User ID” on the left), and enable child accounts....
Guys, I did the worst thing ever.Ever. I think I lost my review code copy ofPersona 2: Innocent Sinfor the PSP. I probably did. I get a lot of game-related mail and it seems that I misplaced the envelope that P2 was in. Do you know what this means? It means that I am probably in the same boat you are! It looks like we’ll be getting this game on the same day, September 20th....
Composed iconic sprites for Dig Dug, Galaga, and Xevious Video game artist Hiroshi Ono — better known by his digital pseudonym “Mr. Dotman” — passed away on October 16 at the age of 64. Ono was responsible for the creation of some of gaming’s most iconic, formative visuals. Joining fledgling studio Namco in 1979, Ono’s masterful use of pixel graphics created sprites, stages, and characters that remain instantly recognizable to the video game community some 40 years later....

Booyah: we’ve officially reached episode 42. I can now die more or less secure in the knowledge that Podtoid has now, in a sense, achieved something noteworthy. This is exactly as pathetic as you think it is.Head to the official Podtoid pageand experience said pathetic-ness for yourself. This week,Tiff Chow,Aaron Linde,Jim Sterlingand myself devoted an entire episode toThe King of Kong, which came out on DVD this Tuesday. Discussion topics include:...
After waiting for three full years forProject Zomboid‘s Build 42 to be released, the community has embraced what the developer The Indie Stone has delivered. The single exception to this rule is the now-deleted allegedly AI-generated loading screens, which the player base called out almost immediately upon spotting them. WhileProject Zomboidisn’t a game that depends on its graphics to drive the gameplay forward, it does have a very specific and distinctive look to it....
