In Your Pants

Like many videogamers in America, we were thrilled when we picked up the new issue of esteemed men’s mag Playboy and discovered that Miss November, the lovely Grace Kim, was not only a gamer but actually worked in the PR department of Activision and repped Guitar Hero for a spell before parting ways after snapping her nudie pics!

So we stuck Grace on Guitar Hero World Tour (Activision, multi-platform) and asked her to tell us what she thinks. Now, Grace ain’t necessarily a Guitar Hero pro per say, but she loves it and has played enough to think Rock Band is the better game (start ranting on the boards now)! Plus, she’s smokin’ HOT and really fun to look at as she rocks out. Seriously.

So enjoy this Playboy-tastic look at Guitar Hero World Tour courtesy of Grace Kim and try to keep it in your pants, boys!

Today is THE DAY, gamers!

Yes, it’s Halloween and you need to be scared out of your pants, don’t ya? Yes, you do. Well, there’s a werewolf on the loose in the X-Play studios and it’s about to get real bloody up this b*tch! No one is safe...especially Morgan and Adam!

Watch the final installment of X-Play's frightening 2007 Halloween Special and try not to have a heart attack. Please.

If you’ve been waiting for the announcement that William Shatner's James T. Kirk would be making an appearance in the upcoming new Star Trek flick…er, don’t hold your breath.

According to a recent interview with Star Trek director J.J. Abrams, Shatner was written into the film for a cameo, but refused to agree to anything but a pivotal co-starring role so it was nixed.

“It was very tricky,” Abrams said. “We actually had written a scene with him in it that was a flashback kind of thing, but the truth is, it didn't quite feel right. The bigger thing was that he was very vocal that he didn't want to do a cameo. We tried desperately to put him in the movie, but he was making it very clear that he wanted the movie to focus on him significantly, which, frankly, he deserves. The truth is, the story that we were telling required a certain adherence to the Trek canon and consistency of storytelling. It's funny — a lot of the people who were proclaiming that he must be in this movie were the same people saying it must adhere to canon. Well, his character died on screen. Maybe a smarter group of filmmakers could have figured out how to resolve that.”

WTF? C’mon, Bill! This is likely your last shot to strap on those Kirt-pants and strut your stuff on the Enterprise!

We're live-blogging the Microsoft press conference! Click the tag for a minute by minute account of the big announcements made and all the excitement.

The overall theme of the conference: Xbox seems to be trying very hard to position themselves as a company that supports the core gaming community (Fallout 3, Gears 2, FF XIII) while making new in-roads into the casual demographic. A lot of time was spent on initiatives that position the 360 as a family entertainment hub--whether it's a deal with Netflix or the new, Wii-like avatars and a big focuse on family friendly titles.
