Sexy Japanese bikini model unintentionally promotes Bape DS images attached to an article

Gothic Girl | 4 hours 55 mins ago | News | Wii DS 
It's no secret that Japanese companies use celebrities and popular bikini models to promote their goods. Sony has done it for PSP, Nintendo has done it for their games, and let's not forget the booth babes and show girls that appear at many gaming expos.

These girls are usually paid to look good and act excited while playing a game or console, no matter how awful it might be.

But if you take a look at many Japanese celebrity's blogs, you will often find them talking about their favorite...

Lost in Blue Wii - first N64-alike screenshots images attached to an article

Andrew5 | 13 hours 47 mins ago | News | Wii DS 
"After being officially confirmed yesterday, the first proper screenshots of Lost in Blue for the Nintendo Wii have emerged. And if their awful quality is reflective of the gameplay we can expect, we’re not holding out much hope.

Whether these shots are from early development of Lost in Blue Wii or not isn’t clear, but even still, they’re really rather awful. The Nintendo Wii has been around for a year and a half now (and developers will have had kits to create games before then), so why so..."

PS3 firmware update 2.35 improves stabilty of some PS3 titles... but not GTA IV?

Silver Mirror | 20 hours 4 mins ago | News | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 
Today Sony released firmware update 2.35 for the Playstation 3, the minor update according to Sony fixes stability to several PS3 games. Considering Rockstar's announcement about the freezing problems in GTA IV being Sony's problem you would think this patch would solve the issues.

Unfortunately so far there appears to be no change, however Sony have said that they have identified the issue and are working on a solution. So maybe in the next one?

"Consumerist,

I have had a bad morning. Last night when i tried to sign into my xbox live account "thegayergamer" I was told that it had to be changed. I figured that it was just from people reporting it as an offensive name being that the greater Xbox live community isn't exactly welcome to gay people, i spend a lot of time muting people on Halo3. I assumed that once i called Microsoft they would straighten things out.

I talked to a supervisor there, Roxy, who told me that she didn't pe..."

The top 7 games which just didn't deserve it. images attached to an article

theundertakergonzo | 2 days ago | News | Misc 
"You know that heartwarming sensation you get while remembering games of yesteryear? The one that makes you ponder, "Why aren't games this good nowadays?" It's a lie. It's a childhood veil that, once lifted, exposes how shitty some of your favorite games were all along. They didn't just sour with age - they were never that fun, you just put up with them because there was no better alternative.

Metroid, for example, is fairly crap by today's standards. But it was actually good for its day an..."

A few weeks ago a Gamegrep article mentioned that there hasn't been any news of an Eternal Darkness sequel since 2006.

Well it looks like fans can now rest at ease. Silicon Knights' Denis Dyack revealed that there is a "strong chance" a sequel will be made. But since Silicon Knights are now a second-party developer of Microsoft, the game will most likely be an XBox 360 exclusive.
