Glad to see that the gaming news machine has recovered from its holiday hangover and begun to churn once again. Hopefully the money will arrive a little sooner than the games. Earlier this week, Gamefly launched a beta service which will allow customers to trade in used games for credits on the service. As I’ve … Continue reading

Not even screenshots of boys kissing boys could inspire their usual level of controversy, and while the game did well, a whole lot … Continue reading
Does anyone out there still play Stranglehold online? Anyone? The John Woo game was pretty fun for what it was (my review here) and yeah, the online multiplayer was decent. Unfortunately there were also a lot of glitches and lag to be found, along with quite a limited selection of levels and game modes, so … Continue reading

At times it’s been impossible to connect to the network at all, and it couldn’t have happened at a worse time. Most people were off from work/school and loaded with gifts from the … Continue reading
