If I told you that you can play high quality games like Crysis and Burnout Paradise on your mediocre PC, you better believe it!

With OnLive, you can enjoy high definition and high quality games at full settings using your basic computer. There is no need to spend on expensive parts and graphic cards. The catch? The quality depends on your broadband connection. The faster the better.

GDC 2009 saw the release of the blue tinted Xbox 360. In addition to the elegant black and blue tint finish and its unique style, it has a whopping 1GB of RAM. The catch? This piece of hardware is only for game developers!

Crysis may be one of the best looking games in the market, requiring a very expensive machine to run it. With the development of CryENGINE3, the very same graphics we see in Crysis can now be churned out by current consoles like the Xbox 360 and the PS3. Don't believe it? Watch this:

The screenshots below are taken from an IGN comparison between the first Resident Evil for the Playstation and the remake for the GameCube. The difference is drastic and the screenshots below prove it:

The money shot (bottom)

New windows and new light sources (bottom)

Chandeliers go a long way (bottom)

The PlayStation version (top) lacks the detailed geometry and texture quality of the GCN version (bottom)

The lighting effects are in full effect in the GCN version (bottom)



Hidden throughout the game are 30 emblems that, when shot at, will unlock bonus content and features for the game. The video above shows you where those emblems are. Go get!



According to the review from Gamespot, here's a brief summary of the highly anticpated Resident Evil 5:

The Good =D

  • Beautifully detailed graphics and character animations
  • Having a partner enhances the fun and excitement while adding tension
  • Real-time menu system keeps you immersed
  • Plenty to do once you've beated it
The Bad =(
  • Frustrating hurdles to leap when joining an online game
  • Slow, deliberate movement and gunplay may not appeal to everyone
  • Can't swap weapons with a human teammate online.

The box art above reveals two upcoming titles heading for the Wii this Winter 2009- Bio Hazard 0 and Bio Hazard!

Gamespot has an article on the official announcement of the new RE titles.


Fans of the Resident Evil series will be pleased to know that a remake of Resident Evil 2 is coming to the Wii in the near future. Titled the Darkside Chronicles, the following trailer gives us a good idea of what is to come...
