I’ve been ranting for a couple of weeks now about howScott Pilgrim Vs. The Worldis thefirst true videogame movie. I hope it’s not the last. I’d love to see Edgar Wright, or someone else who respects the language of videogames, make a newSuper Mario Bros.movie, preferably with aSuper Mario Galaxytwist. Until that time, we’re stuck withtheSuper Mario Bros.moviethat exists now. According to the box cover, “It aint no video game! It’s a live-action thrill ride!...

The soundtrack for thecritically acclaimedSuper Meat Boyis now available for purchasing and listening now!

In an early stage of development, designers forSuper Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remixwere worried that the title could be canned. David Sirlin, lead designer of the remade and optimized downloadable title, toldVideoGamerthat the amount of art assets tossed aside from the start was enough to make the project feel doomed. He called it an “unspoken” sentiment among artists, but said that external pressure on Capcom may have given the title more time....

While Sony is attempting to convince the world that 3D gaming is what it wants, a study from the company’s homeland indicates that a lot more convincing might need to be done. According to a poll, most Japanese consumers don’t give a crap about 3DTV, which seems to insinuate that it might not be the PS3’s golden goose after all. Of the 8,957 people polled, 67.4% said they had no intention of upgrading to 3D....

I usually hate but appreciate those emails coming from retailers that remind you about those gift-tied holidays like Father’s Day. Usually I have an “oh crap” reaction, and then curse the mail for being a reminder that I have to buy a gift (I love you, Dad!). But then I’m grateful that it reminded me, as I probably would have forgotten (I love you, Dad!). Along with some standard Father’s Day gift ideas, Target sends along some game specific sales and deals that you may be interested in…for you or your father....

There’s flagrant denial, and then there’sflagrant denial. Tecmo Koei has describedDead or Alive Paradise— its creepy, hideous, thoroughly atrocious PSP game — as a world of color and beauty. Seriously. “Picture yourself,” explains TK boss Yoshiki Sugiyama, “You’re on the bus to work. You’re stuck in traffic and it’s raining outside. There’s someone sitting next to you shouting on their cell phone and a baby crying somewhere else. You can turn your PSP on and be transported instantly to this world of color and beauty....

If there is one thing you can’t quite accuse Koei of recently, it’s not at leastattemptingto branch out. Titles likePrey the StarsandSaihai No Yukuemay have roots in other games, but they are new directions for the company.Monster Racersfor the DS is very much the same — it’s clearly attempting to capitalize on the success ofPokémon, but hey, it’s notDynasty Warriors. Koei has been makingMonster Racersa huge part of its TGS presence, going as far as to unveil that ridiculous red dragon (photographed above by ParaParaKing....

King’s Quest III Remember the days of classic graphic adventure games on the PC, when companies such as Sierra and LucasArts pretty much ruled the roost? Some of the greatest games of all time, containing some of the most significant memories from my past, came out of this golden era of gaming. The late ‘80s saw the biggest wave of success this genre had to offer. Multiple games, each special in its own right, were coming out every few months, filling the market with a wide selection of masterpieces in the making....
