New Assassin's Creed II Trailer for Papi

Thu Sep 03, 2009 at 12:34:55 PM EST

Really like the stylish musical choice for the last half of the trailer. No spoilers in this one. Unless you count awesome shots of guys getting beat down by Ezio. :)

As many of you know I had some issues with the first game. Namely that I'd fall asleep if I played it for more than an hour at a stretch. :) After playing Arkham Asylum it'll be interesting to see how the combat in Assassin's Creed feels. Regardless some of these animations look sick.

Couple Gears Videos

Mon Nov 24, 2008 at 06:35:38 PM EST

The first video is a countdown that Jason Bertrand produced. He counts down his top 5 weapons from Gears of War 2.

Feel free to add your thoughts on his choices.

The second is a cool animation that one of our users did. What would happen if Marcus Fenix became a rock star?

Enjoy!

7-Eleven FTMFW!

Tue Nov 04, 2008 at 05:19:17 PM EST

If you have a 7-Eleven near you that sells video games there's a damn good chance you can walk out with a copy of Gears of War 2 today. A co-worker and I went around to a few stores earlier today, and left with 4 copies in our possession. Make it happen Gearheads!

Seriously, go to 7-Eleven NOW!

Biographical Cliff Interview

Wed Oct 29, 2008 at 08:37:42 PM EST

We just put up part one of the interview we shot with Cliff Bleszinki a few weeks ago. This video focuses on Cliff's background in the industry, and how he got where he is today.

Bonus: I also just put up my video walk through of the New Xbox Experience. I'll give you a hint, I think it's awesome.

Gears of War 2 Not Coming to Japan

Wed Oct 22, 2008 at 11:30:30 AM EST

You guys might remember 3Suns diary from a few days ago regarding Gears 2 being released in Japan.

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=...

Well today someone from Microsoft has finally confirmed (http://www.edge-online.com/news/no-gears-war-2-japan-or-germany) that this is 100% true. No reason has been given at this time, but we'll keep digging to see what we can find out.

What do you guys think about this?

New Cliff Interview

Mon Oct 20, 2008 at 04:47:32 PM EST

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to let you know that we have a new interview with Cliff up on GameVideos. This is only the first part of the much longer form interview which will hopefully go up next week.

Lead designer of Gears of War 2 Cliff Bleszinski takes a variation of Vanity Fair Magazine's own version of the Proust Questionnaire.

You've Got Questions...Try Again

Wed Oct 15, 2008 at 11:55:17 PM EST

I can't go into great detail on all of these questions, but here goes:

Many Thanks

Wed Oct 01, 2008 at 12:11:49 PM EST

Just wanted to drop in and let you guys know that I really appreciated all the questions. The interview with Cliff was a success. We talked about a WIDE variety of topics, and I think you'll dig the interview when we release it.

I'll be incommunicado for the next few days, but I just wanted to thank you all once again. This is an amazing community, and I consider myself to be lucky to be a part of it. Tyler has done an excellent job of, by and large, attracting a mature set of gamers.

Questions for Cliff B.

Tue Sep 30, 2008 at 12:47:13 AM EST

Hey Guys,

I'm in need of some assistance...again.

I'm interviewing the brother of the big boss of this here site tomorrow, and I'm looking for some interesting questions to ask. While Gears 1 and 2 will certainly come up during the several hours I'll be spending with Epic's wunderkind, the focus of the actual interview is more on Cliff himself. What his tastes are. How he sees the state of the video game industry. Who are some people that he'd love to work with. So if you have anything AT ALL that you'd like me to ask, post them in the comments.

Thanks again,

David

Need Help

Sun Sep 28, 2008 at 09:02:31 PM EST

So, for no particular reason at all I really want to finish the original Gears of War on Insane before Wednesday. If someone would be willing to help me finish the campaign, I'd really appreciate it. I'm part way into Chapter 4 so I don't have much left. I'll be on tonight at 10 pm. PST and tomorrow evening around 8 PST. Thanks in advance for your help. Trust me, it's for a good cause.

Black Dragon No More...

It's with great sadness but also much joy that we can announce that our very own Jeff Green is making the move to game development. After 17 (!) years with Ziff Davis Media, Jeff is finally jumping to the dark side to work on The Sims brand at EA. It's never fun to announce these sorts of things, but we're thrilled that one of ours has such an incredible opportunity to work on such an amazing brand (The Sims makes up more than half of EA's revenues -- what the hell are they thinking hiring Jeff?!).

Seriously, this sucks more than you can possibly imagine.

Gears of War 'Comic-Con 2008 Toys' clip

Mon Jul 28, 2008 at 09:16:08 PM EST

As you know, a couple of our guys were down in San Diego for Comic-Con recently, and Jason decided to put together some Gears Toy porn for people to check out.

ENJOY!!!
