Jenny McCarthy has a fitness game now?!

Okay, whenDaisy Fuentes’ fitness gamewas announced, I sort of shrugged it off. I mean, apart from an excuse to talk about Daisy Fuentes, something I rarely get an opportunity to do any longer, there’s just not a lot there that interests me. But now that Ubisoft has announced the release of a Wii exercise title featuring Jenny McCarthy this holiday season, I’m starting to notice a disturbing trend. How many of these former MTV celebrities are going to get games made?...

Jordin Sparks puts Pac-Man on her fingernails

Nothing like a story that will get torn apart in the comments as soon as its posted to kick off the weekend, so here we go. Now, previous to this day I would have told you that I would never compliment a person who spells Jordan with an “i” since that’s not even a way you may spell that name, but I have to admit that as far as manicures go thePac-Manone above is pretty awesome....

Left 4 Dead 2 Achievements confirm all campaigns

The Achievement list for Valve’s zombie-braining sequelLeft 4 Dead 2has been revealed, bringing with it verification of the yet-to-be-official campaigns, Hard Rain and Dead Center. The Achievements also make mention of brand new items, which I will now spoil for you all (so stop reading if you’re one of those “SPOILARZ” bitches). First of all, there seems to be some sort of new weapon called the Boomer Bile Bomb. While no details are given, one would assume it works very similar to the Antlion pods inHalf-Life 2, with Survivors throwing them to lure away the infected....

Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks trailer has trains, Zelda

I’m starting to believe Zelda doesn’t mind being hassled by Gannon or having all this weird fantasy crap happen to her. Every time she gets kidnapped or dipped into acid she gets a Nintendo videogame named after her. Plus, some dashing little green dude always goes through hell and back in order to get her out of the jam (acid). Both these thingshaveto make a chick feel special at the end of the day, right?...

Looks like I may have been wrong about Knights Contract

You might remember that we reviewedKnights Contracta few weeks ago, and I called it a broken, sloppy, dull, pointless waste of space. I urged you not to buy it, but apparently I was mistaken — given its current price atZavvi, I may have advised you out of buying a sound investment. Yep, that’sKnights Contractbeing sold for the handsome price of £117.85, which would be around $191.69 in the US. Clearly, the discs were printed on magic fairy dust, able to make men young and turn wishes into unicorns....

Macintosh Battle.Net client could come this April

It’s no secret that Blizzard hopes to support the Cupertino crowd with its revision of theBattle.Net service. But when exactly the developed planned to open up a beta of that version of the service was unknown — until recently, that is. In anofficial Twitter Q&A, Blizzard confirmed that it was working on a beta for the Mac version of Battle.Net. Even better, the studio said it has “hopes” to launch that beta “sometime in April,” a month that sits in fairly soon territory....

Meet the Law Abiding Engineer

Buried in the deluge of lame April Fool’s spam my inbox is currently stuffed with, I found this gem. One of our readers alerted us to this great YouTube video that was in danger of going unnoticed. Luckily, I’ve rescued it! YouTube user TrueOneMoreUser made a pretty impressive mashup of Team Fortress 2 and the movie trailer for Law Abiding Citizen. Watch it and be amazed — the quality is fantastic, especially when youcompare it to the original trailer side by side....

Mega64: Red Dead murder spree

Red Dead Redemptionis looking like another killer hit from Rockstar. The game is so good, in fact, that it will make you wish you were a real life cowboy. And just like a real life cowboy, you’ll want to start shooting everyone that messes with you.

Miis coming to the Nintendo DS, want you to walk with them

It had to happen eventually, and Nintendo has finally revealed that a game involving Miis isheading to the DS. Walk With Me is yet another non-game for the system, which is basically all about walking. Walk With Mecomes packed with two Activity Meters, which are basically glorified pedometers. They’ll count each step you take and record up to a week of “life rhythm data.” Using the DS’ wireless capabilities, you may compare this data with system users across the globe....

Mileena looks for new playmate in new Mortal Kombat vid

We’re back this week with yet anotherMortal Kombatvideo featuringMileena, this one focusing more how how much ass she kicks than her story. Her story, as far as I’m concerned, is that she needs to see a dentist. But the trailer looks good, with a ton of action that gives off that old school 2DMortal Kombatvibe. A “return to form” if you will. Oh, but if you’re looking for a fatality, keep it moving — you’ll have to settle for an “X-Ray” move, which looks damned brutal in its own right....
