Now here are this weeks PlayStation Network video content update. Some of the notable titles include the classic horror film Friday The 13th and the spoof classic Scary Movie 4. Hit the link for the full list.

Whoa, way overdue, but this is a good batch for last week's PSN video content update, largely because I still get laughs out of The 40-Year-Old-Virgin. Other notables include the unrated director's cut of Miami Vice, Gran Torino, Sniper, and the zombie movies Dawn and Land of the Dead  - both unrated. You get to catch those in glorious HD, as well as other movies now available for download.

What HIlton wants, Hilton gets. Not necessarily Paris Hilton, but the Hilton Hotels Corporation sure wants in on the gaming scene too - and what better venue to show off your work than in the upcoming GDC in March, yeah? They're going to show off their PSP game to the public!

Everything's mini now, it goes to follow that they run on minibatteries as well. But there's no such thing as minibatteries... right? Wrong. MIT researchers have just created this breakthrough technology, and they used viruses for it.

Acclaim, the game company running DANCE! Online in North America has announced that Paris Hilton and The Ramones are joining the mix of artists for the game's song collection, adding more star power to the already solid mix. Particular tracks have not been specified, but they're guaranteed to be revealed in further announcements.

DANCE! Online is the North American counterpart of the Chinese online dance game Super Dancer Online. The title features a game very similar to the classic Dance Dance Revolution series which can be played via keyboard or dance pad.

DANCE! Online is currently in open Beta form and can be downloaded for free and tested at home. The game will have an online store which will vend items that will allow you to customize characters with an insane amount of shirts, hairstyles, clothes and other things that will make your character unique.

Seasoned dancing game veterans who are out for new challenges will find the twists in Super Star mode, River Notes mode and Reverse Notes mode very exciting. These modes will have everyone shaking their tail feathers like never before.

According to IGN, some 350,000 individual users ave signed up for the DANCE! Online Beta and are already testing the dance floor. If you like dancing and competing with people online, get DANCE! Online now and tell us what you think.

Nintendo's pride and glory, Shigeru Miyamoto, was nominated more than a week ago by the people behind TIME Magazine to be one of the Most Influential People of the Year in The TIME 100. After an introductory write up by Quake's own Johnathan Wendel, a.k.a. Fatal1ty, the man behind the phenomenal Mario and Donkey Kong is now pegged at the 92nd spot of the Top 100 list.

Now we do know that the spot isn't as impressive as PC World's placing of Blizzard's Mike Morhaime in the recent Top 50 Most Influential People on the Web, but seeing as he went up against the likes of Paris Hilton and titans from other industries other than the video game, we say 92 is definitely a big slice of the pie. In fact, bagging the 100th spot at the Top 100 list of TIME is already way too good to pass up.

In other news (or just FYI), top spot was filled by philanthropist and Hollywood hottie Angelina Jolie, honored for her major influence on the needy. But top on the readers' lists is Korean pop sensation Rain, with (surprise!) American Idol's Sanjaya Malakar on third place. According to all you gaming readers out there, Shigeru Miyamoto is number nine in your book.

Acclaim Games recently showed their moves on the dance floor, err, MMO block, by launching their latest online game DANCE! Online. Bound to be your little tween sister's new best friend, DANCE! Online is a free-to-play MMO dancing game and it will feature top talent and recordings from the Warner Music Group.

According to Howard Marks, "this is by far the closest collaboration any major music label has ever had with an online game". With artists like Paris Hilton and Ashley Tisdale among many others on the Warner recording stable, we bet a lot of people would have fun with this game.

Anyhow, the U.S. open beta for DANCE! Online will be starting this week. Atlantic Records' recording artist Cupid will make a personal virtual appearance in the game. Other artist-related announcements will follow where they will create their own avatar and play the game live online and chat with fans.

The game will feature the artists' latest music and personalized virtual items including artist-branded clothing and accessories. Players can compete to win autographed merchandise and other artist-branded products. Players could use either their keyboards or PC-compatible dance pads for their character to rule the dance floor.

After dreaming of a white Christmas, red is the new black. Michal Birecki happily tells us that the paint and clear coats on his custom-painted red 60GB PS3 are all dry, and eBay is now open for bids.  

By the way, if the photos don't tell you already, that ain't just any run-of-the-mill red he's used. He's specifically chosen the Maserati Red color swatch for tres, tres erotique... what? You guys haven't run your hands down the smooth curves of a sleek sports car, and feel the temptation to take her out for a spin? You guys need to get out more.

Well, if any of you readers happens to own a red Maserati GranTurismo, guess you have your in-car entertainment system up and ready on eBay. And after this... Michal says that he'll set up an ordering system for the common man to order his own custom-painted PS3 directly from PS3 Center.net. So if you've ever wanted your PS3 in Jaguar racing green... or pastels.

And a big thanks for telling us about this, Michal! Paris Hilton thinks that the other pictures of the Maserati Red PS3 in the painting process are hot, too. Paris Hilton could afford to buy a Maserati, damn it.

 

Most Americans probably haven't heard of Furgus Fenix, but he's the ursine cousin of Epic Games' Marcus Fenix, and he's coming to make you laugh.

Thanks to Barts_706, we heard about Furgus Fenix and his band of brothers as they traverse some comic wastelands in search of honey and a very good sniper. This comic, called Bears of War, features Gears of War scenarios as envisioned through the life of bears... with machine guns.

As some opf you might note, you'll also get a lot of surprise cameos from famous bears like Yogi and Booboo, and more notably, Winnie the Pooh. Unfortunately, Winnie has the terrible habit of dying for one reason or another (eviscerated by another bear for his honey, impaled in the eye by a Wiimote, headshot from a sniper's bullet, etc.), but there's a certain macabre humor that comes out when you know he's bound to be back in another installment.

If you're looking for something new to fill your time, or just want to see Paris Hilton's dogs get crushed under Furgus' feet, you now have a place to visit. Enjoy the fan art!
