"PushStartSelect :"Apple has been touting their “entrance” into the video game market for some time now. At every turn Apple has been taking credit for exploiting the handheld market, and how they would “improve” the console market. Every press release covers their app sales and the “gamer” percentage that their devices holds. However there are many reasons why none of this holds true.""

"Yep, you heard the news correct. one of the most fun games of all times is making its way onto the sony hand-held.
This is big news for many gamers that where wondering what would happen with popcap games on the Sony PS Vita.

The official Playstation Twitter account made the reveal by posting a photo of someone playing the game at a PS Vita showcase event."

"For many of us the VGAs were a bit underwhelming.

We had new announcements in the form of new ‘post-apocaliptic’ zombie survival type games (sigh), and new footage of some upcoming games that look either very promising (Bioshock Infinite, Hitman Absolution) or incredibly silly (Metal Gear Rising: Revengance, or as I call it: Devil May Rise: Cryvengance).
Then we had the idiocy that made our gaming industry look even more puerile with ‘tea bagging’ those whose speech went a little long and..."

NoobFeed.com watches the VGA too, but was rather surprised at one particular entry. Therefore, Daav has come up with his own batch of selected trailers of other deserving participants. Some trailers are rightfully familiar, but there are also a few surprises which shouldn't go unnoticed. And hey; it's yet another way to watch clips instead of studying for exams.

"Well, another year, another Video Game Awards show from Spike TV. The network aired the two hour special last night, chock full of celebrities, gaming awards (more of the former than the latter) and several big exclusives. Zachary Levi hosted the show this year, and was surprisingly more effective than last year’s hosting gig by Neil Patrick Harris, thanks to his entry through a Portal and some comical bits that actually weren’t half bad. Even if we’re still trying to figure out who the hell ..."

We recently featured an article about five unannounced 3DS games that we would like to see Nintendo reveal in 2012. Following up on that idea, here are six games that would fit well on the 3DS in 2012, each coming from a third-party developer that has already pledged support for the handheld. Let the speculation begin on GameRabies!

Slowly but surely, iOS and Android devices are seeing full-length, well-received titles hit the platform that have more in common with established consoles than what we think of as "phone gaming."

"Steampowered.com is permitting customers to play the co-op online zombie survival game Killing Floor for free this weekend. Although this may appear to be overt Communist activity on American soil, it is actually a marketing tactic to entice customers into buying the game, which is on sale at 75% off for five dollars through this weekend."

Available today only, you can pick up the mobile version of EA's free-running experiment, Mirror's Edge, in the Apple app store for free. The game is a side-scrolling platformer, as opposed to first person.

In EA's just released freemium Theme Park iOS game EA apparently think it's fine to expect customers to pay upwards of $60 for one rollercoaster in DLC.

Amazon.com has quite the deal going on right now. You can get Microsoft's popular Xbox 360 camera peripheral, the Kinect, for only $100 along with three games.

A federal judge denied a request by Apple for an injunction against Samsung over a series of products that resemble the iPhone and iPad. The ruling allows Samsung to continue to sell their Galaxy line in the United States. Apple was hoping to block sales of the products that they claim infringe on their patents.

Max and the Magic Marker was re-created for the Nintendo DS from an iOS game on the iPhone. Nintendo has given up the system for dead, but third party publishers are still pumping out games. Does Max have any magic in him?

In a move that is likely to infuriate gamers everywhere, EA has revealed that online passes for new copies of their video games have an expiration date even though they do not appear printed on the codes themselves. What this means from a practical standpoint is that a consumer could purchase a new, shrink-wrapped copy of an EA game a year after a game's release and they will be blocked from playing online game features.

"The news shouldn't be surprising given that the company has already churned out a sequel to the original survival horror 3rd-person shooter, a prequel rail-shooter spin-off for the Wii (and PS3), a puzzle game, an awesome iOS and Android 3rd-person shooter, comics and a novel. However an EA insider claims that the company is basically just getting started with the franchise, and is looking at new ways to expand the Dead Space universe."
