As expected, Monsters vs. Aliens trailer has monsters, also aliens
Posted by admin in Technology on January 25th, 2009
As CES this year, I had a chance to see the trailer for Dreamwork’s upcoming film Monsters vs. Aliens … in 3D. You see, everything at CES had to be in 3D, be it films or — in some cases — videogames.

Guitar Hero: Metallica ESRB listing reveals songs, succubus cleavage and panties
Posted by admin in Technology on January 25th, 2009
Oh, ESRB.org — it’s one of the only places I have the ability to read the words “a fantastic succubus with cleavage and panties.”
This is, of course, in their description for the upcoming digital metal-fest, Guitar Hero: Metallica. In its effort to describe the T-rated title, the ESRB also reveals some suggestive lyrics that reveals that following songs will appear on the soundtrack:
- Metallica – “Am I Evil?” (”sweet and timely whore, take me home”)
- Metallica – “Whiplash” (”We’re gathered here to maim and kill”)
- Michael Schenker Group – “Armed and Ready” (”I got a gunsight trained on you”)
- Social Distortion – “Mommy’s Tiny Monster” (”Mommy’s little monster had sex at 15″)
The MSG track, “Armed and Ready,” was previously revealed in an issue of Game Informer, which hit shelves last month. You can check out those tracks here.
Guitar Hero: Metallica and its expletives, sexual references, and revealing clothing will hit shelves on March 29.

Halo Wars goes gold, Microsoft celebrates with documentary, screens, demo info
Posted by admin in Technology on January 25th, 2009
Microsoft Games Studios and Ensemble Studios are excited because they’re done with Halo Wars. That’s right, completed — the game has gone gold, which means it’s off somewhere being made for public consumption. This means the game is all set for its March 3 North American release, and we shouldn’t expect any delays.
The Halo Wars demo will be available on Xbox LIVE at the very specific date and time of February 5 at 2 o’clock in the morning, Pacific. So if it’s a minute late, feel free to start furiously bitching all over the World wide web. The demo will feature the first two stories in the game’s campaign mode, as well as a multiplayer map called “Chasms” that you’ll be able to battle against A.I. on.
Microsoft have also released the first in what’s sure to be a series of Halo Wars video documentaries, which you can see above. If you want it in glorious HD (and it does look glorious), it’s also available on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
So, who’s more excited about this game than Halo: ODST?
