THQ CEO Names Sony's Motion Controller As "Arc"

Get used to referring to Sony's forthcoming motion controller for the PlayStation 3 as Arc. That's how THQ president and CEO Brian Farrell referred to the still unofficially named, PlayStation Eye-powered controller, previously known as "Gem," in today's investor call.

PlayStation VP Says "PS1 And PS2 Classics" A Terrific Opportunity

The long-rumored, recently leaked existence of PlayStation 2 games joining the "PS One Classics" line comes a bit closer to reality, at least in the mind of PlayStation senior VP Peter Dille who calls the digital re-issues a "terrific opportunity."

MAG Review: World of Shadow Warcraft

It's the year 2025 and a mandated world peace gives rise to three Private Military Corporations. The rise of the PMC also gives birth to the shadow war, a raging worldwide battle fought for profit and power rather than political ideologies. The backdrop of PlayStation 3 exclusive MAG isn't weighed down with things like plot or character development. MAG is instead meant to be a technical wonder, a...

Do You Want Rez HD On The PS3? Tell Q!

Rez and Space Channel 5 creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi has toyed with the idea of bringing more of Q Entertainment's games from Xbox Live Arcade to the PlayStation Network.

God Of War III Snaps Necks Starting March 16

It's official, God of War III hits stores beginning March 16. (That's a Tuesday for those of you planning illnesses.)

And to put in a bit of context something I've said, but you haven't yet heard, I am a HUGE fan of the God of War series...

Heavy Rain's Mysterious Mailing

I may be very preoccupied with MAG these days, but I haven't forgotten about Heavy Rain. The very different PS3-exclusive is set for a February release, but I just received review code for the mail. The disc came in a shoebox that spoke when I opened it. "Are you prepared to suffer to save your son?" A woman's voice asked. Tristan, standing near by, looked over at me startled. "What's that mean?" ...

MAG: First-Day Impressions of a Burgeoning War

War broke out on my Playstation 3 last night, slowly unfolding like a deadly blossom over the course of seven hours. That's seven hours without break, or nearly a day's work playing the PS3's massively first-person shooter MAG and loving every minute of it. But my drop into the persistent online war of MAG wasn't trouble free. It was, in the words of Clint Eastwood in Heartbreak Ridge, a cluster ...

MAG Is Live, Are You Buying It

I've got a copy of MAG sitting right here on my desk waiting to be cracked open. I've managed to never play the game at any of the events leading up to its launch, so I'm not sure whether I should be anxious. As a big first-person shooter fan, am I going to be disappointed or will the massive battles live up to my (and your) expectations? Yesterday, Zipper Interactive's Jeremy Dunham walked reade...
