News: Batman Arkham Origins Teaser Trailer - Batman and Deathstroke Locked in Manly Battle

Batman: Arkham Origins receives a teaser trailer courtesy of new developers WB Games Montreal.



The brave and bold Batman trades threatening fatal flurries with death divvying Deathstroke in a choreographed clash of fists and steel. Eyes are squinted as each warrior gauges the skill of the other and the sexual tension is palpable. This is indeed a battle to the death.

Opinion: GamePolitics.com, Gamespot, and VG24/7 Shamelessly Mis-quote Politico Article.

Game Politics and Bad Reporting

Gaming news sources GamePolitics.com, Gamespot, and VG24/7 have all incorrectly referenced an article from Politico.com relating to Vice President Joe Biden – Biden: Gun control to wait for immigration

It’s not uncommon in the world of "journalism" for information to be steered in a direction that is more in-line with a channels focus or aims but it’s important that we, as readers and consumers of said information, are objective and regularly fastidious with what we choose to take on board.

Update: Kojima’s Plan For ‘Zone of the Enders’ Sequel = Shut It Down!


Certain words shouldn't be taken literally. Cock-pit is one.

Hideo Kojima apologized to fans for the issues experienced in the new Z.O.E HD Collection, and asks; do we still want a Zone of the Enders sequel?

Recently on Hideoblog Kojima discussed the problems faced in converting Zone of the Enders to HD; significantly different hardware architectures between the PS2 & PS3 proved to be the chief setback. Furthermore, up-scaling the frame-rate from 30 fps to 60 fps hasn't been all too successful either. In his opinion the end result was a port that just didn't meet the performance standards expected by the original developers or the fans.
