  • Chickens In Video Games Must Die - G4tv.Comedy

    Sound the alarm! Chickens in video games must die! For years, chickens have appeared in our favorite video games like the Legend of Zelda and Call of Duty.

  • Inventory Management: RPG's Dead Weight - Sessler's Soapbox

    Adam Sessler has a lot on his shoulders, so he doesn't need a video game telling him he's carrying too much weight. On this week's Soapbox The Sess discusses the gameplay mechanic of encumbrance and how it's been used in games for force players to travel light. Do you enjoy inventory micro-management? Or would you download the "weightless...

  • Resident Evil 5 Producer Jun Takeuchi Not Involved With Resident Evil 6

    Capcom hasn't outright announced Resident Evil 6 (the lack of a teaser at E3 was interesting), but despite some noted controversy, Resident Evil 5 was a success for the company. A sequel is inevitable. Who will be in charge of the next Resident Evil, however, remains a mystery. 4Gamer reports it won't be Jun Takeuchi, producer of both Resident...

  • "Game Together Or Die Alone" -- Issues And Expectations With Capcom Co-Op

    It took all of five minutes to realize Lost Planet 2 wasn't for me. In that same time frame, I recognized Capcom's development team approached the sequel with a similar philosophy to Resident Evil 5, a game I spent hours trying to enjoy before ultimately giving up, realizing it was a game designed for someone else. By someone else, of course, I...

    Love him or hate him, director Paul W.S. Anderson has an intimate relationship with video games and their representation in Hollywood.

    San Francisco was nice and all, but it sure felt good to come back to sunny Los Angeles and our home studio. We had a great week up at the Game Developers Conference, but now it's time to get back to regularly scheduled programming. (That is, until next week's PAX East...) Adam, Patrick, Abbie and Sterling file into Studio B in an orderly...

    It turned out to be quite the interesting year, didn't it? Even though a batch of games got pushed back to next year, 2009 still had a pretty impressive roster of titles. The obvious ones we've already covered, but we wanted to break down our favorites from the year on a more personal level. All this week we'll be featuring G4tv.com and X-Play...

  • Nickling and Diming: Limited Edition Games of 2009

    If you ask me, it’s rare to find a collector’s edition that’s actually worth collecting and hanging onto. Most of the time, you’re better off getting pre-order swag than what you’re paying an extra ten to twenty bucks for. And again, if you ask me, exclusive pre-order DLC needs to go away, and fast. As the year...

    3D is the new thing, if you're to believe the gospel of movie director James Cameron. His latest action epic, Avatar, was filmed under the premise 3D is going to revolutionize all forms of entertainment. Games are included under that umbrella. Avatar: The Game will be the first console game to support stereoscopic 3D, but it's not the only 3D...

    Capcom may not have publicly announced what the second Resident Evil 5 downloadable episode will be called, but the publisher had to tell others -- and Internet sleuths followed the trail. According to Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition's breakdown at the British Board of Film Classification, the second downloadable episode for Resident Evil 5 will...

    Remember the slate of downloadable content for Resident Evil 5 I wrote about yesterday? In the announcement, Capcom seemed to pretend there wasn't a PC version of Resident Evil 5. That's because the company hasn't scheduled the content to be released for the PC version. "No plans for PC at this point," said a Capcom spokesperson to me...

    Resident Evil 5 was released way back in March, but Capcom's only now getting around to releasing some ambitious downloadable content for the latest zombie adventure (there was some at launch, too).

  • Learning From Uncharted 2's Co-Op (And What Went Wrong With Resident Evil 5)

    The moment a glowing triangle appeared in the corner of the screen in Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, prompting me to engage in a co-op move, a mild seizure overtook my synapses. I started having flashbacks to Resident Evil 5, the only video game in recent memory I can honestly say I was forced to set down the controller in frustration and said...
