Over the weekend, Valve wrongfully banned a large (like really, inhumanly large) handful of Modern Warfare 2 gamers on the grounds of cheating. As it turns out, Valve was wrong (crazy, right?), and the company offered an apology, and two free copies of the zombie-slaughterfest Left 4 Dead 2 as recompense. Yupp. If you were (wrongfully) banned by the Valve Anti Cheat software, you now have a cop... more.

Rod Fergusson is the executive producer of Gears of War 3, and he wants Clayton Carmine to die. He wore a "Carmine Must Die" t-shirt at Microsoft's Comic-Con party last night, casting his vote for the fate of the third Carmine brother, but he's willing to leave the decision up to the fans: "They kept saying, 'How can you be so mean,' and 'What about Mrs. Carmine,' and 'What's that like [losing he... more.

At a discussion panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2010, Capcom's Keiji Inafune discussed the origins of Dead Rising's 2 casino setting, revealing scrapped plans to make the game take place in a Disneyland-inspired theme park. The original Dead Rising took place in a shopping mall, explained Inafune, and because Japan doesn't have Ame... more.

We’ve all seen Dead Rising 2’s nifty little limited edition for Europe and Australia, but the set that North America gets quite frankly blows it away. Titled the Zombrex Edition, this version packs in a pen in the shape of a syringe, a safety information card, a notepad, and a brochure. There’s also the standard steelbook, ‘making of’ disc, and an artbook to snap up.... more.

The NPD Group’s North American sales numbers for the month of June are in, and there’s no slowing down Red Dead Redemption on the software end. The Rockstar westerner remains the best-selling title for the second month in a row with its Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions taking the first and third spots, respectively, and none other than Super Mario Galaxy 2 tucked in between. Red De... more.

What you see above is the Outbreak Pack for Dead Rising 2. It's a limited edition version of the game that comes with everything pictured: a zombie action figure, accessories, voucher for a premium theme and other console-specific goods. It'll release alongside the standard edition in Europe on October 1. But we wanted to know about the potential for a North American release, so we contacted Ca... more.

Red Dead Redemption will see at least four new downloadable content packs beginning next month.

The fresh all-formats sales chart for the UK are in; nothing overly exiting this week though. The top three has remained unchanged: LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 has held off Red Dead Redemption for a second week, and Super Mario Galaxy 2 sits comfortably at number 3 once more. The biggest newcomer of the week is Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 which debuts at nr 4, while another dance game from Ubisoft, ... more.

Still a slow week for games, though next week’s Crackdown 2 should prove to be a solid way to whittle away those long summer days. We’ve got a huge map for the agility/mystery orbs planned in addition to some videos to help you score all the game’s achievements. In the mean time, hunker down some more with Red Dead Redemption and Transformers... ... View full post on GamesRa... more.
