The appearance of good old Captain Kirk made me so momentarily excited that I thought about playingWorld of Warcraftagain. Then I rememberedI hate it with a burning passionand that I would prefer to slice off my nipples with a dull cheese knife before I would play it again, but it’s a testament to the weirdly unexplainable charisma of William Shatner that I considered it for even a moment. Of course, Shatner probably wouldn’t be caught dead playing the game, much less having a buffed up shaman character, but I have to admit there is something a bit clever about the ads themselves....

There was a time when I was sure that the PS Vita would be my console of choice forStreet Fighter X Tekken. The game looked exactly the same on the portable, plus it had an exclusive character.

Now that I’ve gotten another look at the game on the Vita, I’m not so sure....

Instead of the traditional monthly payment, the digital upgrade allows players to experience the game for free and also gives them the option of paying for select items or creating a VIP account that shovels them a steady stream of Turbine Space Bucks to spend in the game....

Discuss! Dyson I really can’t think of anything else that’s relevant right now. So …Braid! Did you ever post the last DD?...

During a conference call on Friday, I posed what I thought to be an interesting question to movie star and owner of Tigon Studios, Vin Diesel. I asked, where he saw Tigon in to years. Initially, he handed the reigns to Ian Stevens, Tigon’s head game producer (you can read that response here.) Vin echoed Stevens, but branched his response to include an interesting point: Tigon has to make games likeWheelman— which is being created simultaneously as a film and a game — accountable to the movie it was conceived from....
