LittleBigPlanet has gone gold! (meaning it's done and ready for mass production) In celebration of this news, free DLC will be available on launch day.

Fracture feels like it's going to be a mediocre game. The terrain deformation has potential to be interesting, but the demo didn't portray this at all; You either raised terrain to hop over/reach a platform or lowered terrain to unblock a passageway.

Two often overlooked games coming out soon are Dead Space and Far Cry 2. If you loved Resident Evil 4 and Survival Horrors in general, Dead Space is a definite buy.

If you pre-ordered Resistance 2 from Gamestop, beta emails are being sent out. Just received mine today.

Several new release dates were announced yesterday/today. - Dead Space will be shipping October 14th, instead of the 21st - Far Cry 2 ships October 23rd - COD: World at War ships November 11th

If you pre-order the next Call of Duty, you'll get into a beta starting in October.

If you pre-order POP, you'll get the Limited Edition for no extra cost. The LE includes...

Fallout 3 Achievements This is, without a doubt, my most anticipated game this year. I've spent countless hours playing Oblivion and still only saw about 60% of it, so even if FO3 has half the content of Oblivion, it'll be enough gameplay to last me until 2009.

Unfortunately, I think that's got a lot to do with there being FAR too many comedies out. That's true. There's also the fact that it was released during Labor Day weekend, which historically has always been a disastrous weekend for movies. At least this will be their first movie that doesn't make them tons of money. (Y)

Faith in humanity is restored, Disaster Movie's opening weekend grossing was just above six million dollars. To put things into perspective, every other "Movie" had an opening weekend at least three times that of Disaster Movie.

Here's footage of the Fallout 3 demo Bethesda is showing of at PAX. It's split into 5 parts. The demo consists of you walking out of the Vault for the first time and the Megaton quest game journalist covered last year.

I'm just now starting to play and I'm at level 8 with the Orange Knight. I played a few levels near the end of the game in coop (when I was at level 3) and was dieing constantly but having a blast doing so.

I love Castle Crashers! I'm playing as the Orange Fire character at level 8. Played some coop for around 2 hours and it was a blast. Too bad I was barely a level 3 character when playing, because I had my ass handed to me constantly.

Sadly, the Brute doesn't come with the deer.

I call dibs on this guy. Just have to find out how to unlock him. By the way, here's the partial character list.
