Resident Evil: Operation Racoon City Triple Impact Trailer
My god Capcom, when you make a trailer you don’t mess around! Capcom’s Triple Impact trailer for their upcoming Resident Evil: Operation Racoon City is quite possibly one of the best I’ve seen in years. There was tension, there was suspense, there was Zombies, and oh the sweet sweet over the top action!

EA Cries Foul Citing First Amendment Rights, Yet Still Supports Taking Away Yours?
I find it disgusting that EA would invoke it’s First Amendment rights while openly attacking them by lobbying to get bills like SOPA passed. It’s a scary truth of our time and points to just how much power the corporations hold in this country. If you are not familiar with SOPA, it is the Stop Online Piracy Act and is basically designed to let content distributors block access to sites that knowingly, or unknowingly contain copyrighted material…

New Syndicate Deep Dive Co-Op Trailer
I do enjoy me some Co-Op goodness, and the new ‘Deep Dive’ trailer for the Syndicate reboot EA and Strabreeze Studios released today is all about the Co-Op baby! Old school gamers can bitch all they want about EA “betraying the brand” in this latest re-booting of a franchise, I don’t care. It’s got four player Co-Op so I’m absolutely giving this one a shot…

Bioware’s Not Taking Your Reports At “Face Value”
This is what low level players experienced late last week after visiting the planet Ilum and looting containers found there. Ilum is a considered high level content in The Old Republic and Bioware decided that these players were in fact exploiting the system and started swinging the ban-hammer. Cries of outrage and dirty pool were the communities response on the game’s official forums through the weekend, and The Old Republic’s Community Manager Stephen Reid finally issued a statement today…
