Ubisoft's press conference was a strange beast
It seemed to last approximately seven years in length and, well, there was very little in the way of Assassin's Creed II - which we think everybody expected to be a big deal at the show.

So, Dante's Inferno may be an absolute outrage if you're a literature snob, but, we think it's starting to look really, really cool

A slightly dodgy translation from French Magazine PSM3 seems to hint at the possibility of a Gran Turismo 5 appearance at the show

E3 2009 New Bayonetta Trailer Is Suitably Bonkers
There's a reason Bayonetta is our fifth most anticipated game from E3
Because it looks absolutely bloody ridiculous! And the E3 2009 trailer is no difference. There are giant enemy things and creepy British women riding motorbikes. We assume there's a bit of story in this trailer but, for a game like Bayonetta, we doubt it's going to make an ounce...

News Remember Evangelion On Playstation 3? Well, It's A News Reading Service!
We posted a few days ago about a teaser included in the Blu-Ray edition of an Evangelion anime pointing towards a PS3 game
Well, we're afraid to say, it's not a game. Take a breath for a second. For ¥800 a month, starting June 6, Japanese PS3 owners can get a 3D news reader for their system which features Misato from Evangelion. Yes, news! But...

News Afrika Is Finally Coming To The USA
Sony's snap-em-up edutainment photography title Afrika has finally gotten a Western publisher in Natsume
It was thought National Geographic Games would publish the title but the game had dropped off the radar in recent months. Until today an IGN article has built our Afrika hype all over again. There's no release date as of yet but hopefully E3 will...

News GIRL Cheated The Journey To Mars
We knew our calculations weren't wrong
When we said it would take 5 years for Noby Noby Boy's GIRL to reach Mars, we did not "fail" (like one certain N4G poster claimed); Namco cheated. Apparently, Namco multiplied player's submitted lengths by 765, speeding up the process. Essentially, it cheated, though undeniably in a good way. Which...

Another day, the end of another countdown over on Kojima's now infamous webpage
There's one thing to be said for Kojima Productions - they know how to create hype. The latest update sports, well, another countdown, but this time placed upon the face of Big Boss. He's looking somewhat older than he did in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater we'd like to...
News Fancy Watching A Documentary About How Sucker Punch Made inFamous?
We really like inFamous
Watching the credits is a real eye-opener. You've just finished off this massive, deeply interesting and fascinating game, yet watching the credits run takes about 5 minutes.
