What can be more fun than a gentlemanly game in which the opponents figuratively shake hands and give each other a "Good game!" afterwards? Why, screaming expletives and "your momma" jokes at each other, of course.

Something must be wrong with EA; they keep giving away all this free stuff. This time 'round we're getting new characters, maps, objectives, gear slots, and weapons. Whew.

If you were a fan of the original Transformers cartoon (called G1 in today's parlance) and noticed that they Dinobots are in the new game, you may have been wondering how this was possible. Here, the guys at High Moon have put out a video explaining it.

Every multiplayer game has the so-called "cheap build": body armor, a noob tube, and whatever "easy mode" perks and the like you can stack. Do you use these builds? 

The new trailer for Darksiders II has shades of Shadow of the Colossus in it. Not that you can necessarily do any of this crap in-game, though it would be nice...

Every uber-cool game has to have its own version of bullet-time nowadays. Spider-Man's is called "Web Rush" and it involves all sorts of flippity-floppity goodness.

Snipers have a way of getting to places they're not supposed to go. But will they be able to hold onto their current perch?

Ubisoft has a new promotion which states that if enough of us spam our friends, we'll get a new trailer. Your friends may hate you for it, but hey at least you get to look at the pretty pictures.

It seems like everybody's answer to getting stuck with a team of crappy randoms is, "Get more friends." But this often takes away the challenge and fun of truly epic matches. What's the answer?

Kinect voice commands for Skyrim go live today, for better or worse. If you're not sure what to say beyond "Fus Ro Dah!" then check out these images.

The formal announcement isn't going to happen 'til later today, but you can see the first images here. We've seen the future, and it's brown.

The guys at Tequila Works say they wanted to really embrace the '80s feel in their upcoming game. So they put in references such as VHS tapes, hair metal bands...and zombies.

More ads coming to Xbox Live. What's next? "Hey, stop playing Call of Duty and watch this Old Spice ad!"

Crytek and EA have made it official; Crysis 3 is coming next spring. They've also put out some details. Check 'em out.

While this consensus seems to be that this game blows ass, a whole lotta people are buying it. Will wonders ever cease?

If there's one thing that's been proven over the past several years, it's that the Internet is for hatin' on things. Are you a hater?

Sometimes when things don't go your way, you look around frantically for someone or something to blame. That's what the guy behind Syndicate is doing now.

The Ghost Recon: Future Soldier beta is coming next week, so it's time to start reading up on it now. Or you can just watch the video.

The guys developing Sleeping Dogs have enlisted the help of a UFC fighter to make the fighting feel more realistic. Thankfully, he won't come to your house and punch you in the face when you're playing to complete the effect.

Sony has put out a strange image and some text today. Is this teasing God of War IV or something else entirely?

If you really, really like killing folks you can get the Professional Edition for Hitman: Absolution. What a surprise; it comes with a bunch of cool stuff.

Oops, once again somebody accidentally posted some pics they shouldn't have. It's not naked pictures or anything cool like that, it's Crysis 3.

It sounds like Epic is saying something along those lines when it comes to Gears of War: Exile, a Kinect game that was in the works. But I was looking forward to miming chainsaw duels and curb stomps...

The world's gone to shit...time for some platforming. That's the world of Deadlight. But seriously, this actually looks pretty good.

So it looks like the pattern for these Mass Effect 3 weekend events is challenge, reward, challenge reward. This weekend's a reward.

If you want to play The Witcher 2, but haven't played The Witcher 1, the developers have put out a video that'll catch you up. Of course, it's horribly spoilery...and real bloody too.

The Devil May Cry HD Collection is out this week. Check out the launch trailer and be reminded of the good old days.

Soccer balls, that is. Or football if you prefer. Whichever, it's doing better than Mass Effect 3 right now, believe it or not.

By now, you know what to expect from these Risen 2: Dark Waters videos: pirates, swordplay, voodoo, ghosts - yeah, all that. Deep Silver likes to release them in packs, apparently.
