See, to me, that means these guys, but to y'all it means mixed martial arts, and EA Sports MMA ran a trailer/ad during last night's event, showing a solid minute of gameplay.

This video is an extended version of the ad. Brett Rogers and Fedor Emelianenko beat on each other real good in it, just like they did in last night's bout. Can't tell who wins, other than someone's dentist of course. In real life, Emelianenko KO'd Rogers in two rounds.

The novel is titled "Assassin's Creed: Renaissance," and is written by Oliver Bowden. I couldn't find a book description on either Amazon or Tower Books, but Play.tm says it will be an expansion of Ezio's tale. Whether that means a prequel or continuance is anyone's guess. The book has a release date of Nov. 26

"Penguin are hugely excited to be publishing the novelization to the second Assassin's Creed game," Alex Clarke, the Penguin editorial director, told Play.tm. "This partnership presents at last a way for traditional book-publishing to cross-over with the ever growing and increasingly exciting world of gaming media."

It's one of the biggest time sinks that people who work in offices on PCs know so well. It's a game so addictive that some companies and governments have tried to ban folks from playing it at work. It's Minesweeper, which is perhaps the first true casual PC game.

Now comes word that a full adventure game based on Minesweeper may be in the works. G4TV reports that Revolution Software, the creators of the Broken Sword series, are developing such a project. According to the article the game is being developed by giving it real characters and a back story as to why the mines are there. This report uses a source that is not from Revolution Software so we are putting this in a "rumor" file until the developer makes it official.

Still, it's a bold concept. What's next? A game that has a back story for Solitaire?

Here in Atlanta we still have to wait until Monday's midnight launch to pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but lucky folks in several Northeastern states are getting their copies earlier. According to a GameStop employee I spoke to in Bowling Green, Ohio, Activision granted certain area stores special permission to sell the game early, in order to stem the tide of lost customers picking their copies up early from local mom and pop stores.

Update: Activision says this was not the case. Activision contacted Kotaku today with an official statement regarding the situation in Bowling Green and surrounding areas: "Activision has not given any retailer permission to sell Modern Warfare 2 prior to the Nov. 10 street date. The company fully supports the Nov.10 street date."

The employee actually greeted me with "Thank you for calling GameStop, where you can pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2." Calls to my local GameStop stores were greeted with claims of jealousy and invitations to come by Monday night to pick up my copy. Dammit.

Thanks to C & C Games for sending us a copy of their receipt, and everyone in New York and Pennsylvania who sent in tips. Lucky bastards.

The comment section would be an excellent place for you to bitch about the general unfairness of all of this.

Activision contacted Kotaku today with an official statement regarding the situation in Bowling Green and surrounding areas: “Activision has not given any retailer permission to sell Modern Warfare 2 prior to the Nov. 10 street date. The company fully supports the Nov.10 street date.”

The employee actually greeted me with “Thank you for calling GameStop, where you can pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.” Calls to my local GameStop stores were greeted with claims of jealousy and invitations to come by Monday night to pick up my copy. Dammit.

Thanks to C & C Games for sending us a copy of their receipt, and everyone in New York and Pennsylvania who sent in tips. Lucky bastards.

The comment section would be an excellent place for you to bitch about the general unfairness of all of this.






GameStops in Northeastern states such as New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio are selling Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 early, with one store claiming special dispensation from Activision due to street-breaking mom-and-pop stores.

Here in Atlanta we still have to wait until Monday's midnight launch to pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but lucky folks in several Northeastern states are getting their copies earlier. According to a GameStop employee I spoke to in Bowling Green, Ohio, Activision granted certain area stores special permission to sell the game early, in order to stem the tide of lost customers picking their copies up early from local mom and pop stores.

Update: Activision says this was not the case. Activision contacted Kotaku today with an official statement regarding the situation in Bowling Green and surrounding areas: "Activision has not given any retailer permission to sell Modern Warfare 2 prior to the Nov. 10 street date. The company fully supports the Nov.10 street date."

Wii Will Outsell MW2 — with One Stipulation [Claims] http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DownloadFullVersionGameDownloadsNow/~3/GnK0QQeq-JA/fils+aime-new-super-mario-bros-wii-will-outsell-mw2---with-one-stipulation http://feeds.gawker.com/~r/kotaku/full/~3/eP1VEVrD6RA/fils+aime-new-super-mario-bros-wii-will-outsell-mw2---with-one-stipulation#comments Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:00:00 +0000 Game Fan Kotaku-5399737 That stipulation is, it'll beat either the 360 or the PS3 versions of the game, but not both, the Nintendo boss Reggie FIls-Aime told Gametrailers TV. Still, that's a hell of a Pepsi challenge.

Granted, New Super Mario Bros. Wii only releases on a single platform. Modern Warfare 2 is still expected to be an enormous seller for both Xbox 360 and PS3, take your pick. Fils-Aime is unfazed by that and sticks to his claim. "Absolutely. I say that unequivocally," he told GTTV. "Now, you've got to give me the entire holiday selling season. Right? So let's take it all the way through the January NPD data. Yes. I'll put that stake in the ground."

Or maybe he means it'll outsell Modern Warfare: Reflex on the Wii?
