There have been a few jobs where I really wanted to go out with a bang. Something memorable like Jerry Maguire’s “Who’s comin’ with me?” speech, or the “Fuck you” bit from Half Baked. Of course sometimes words just aren’t enough. That’s when you hack together your own...

Mass Effect 2 is still pretty far from seeing the light of day, but surprisingly you might not have to wait long at all to get started with the story. According to an online survey being conducted, iPhone and iPod Touch owners will be treated to a 2-hour mini-game that helps to tell a little of the story...

There has been a bit of controversy surrounding the state of multiplayer action in Dead Rising 2.
