    Pac-Man Sells Big

    Quick post to say that the movie rights for Pac-Man have been sold for a whopping $200M. That's a lot of wakka, wakka, wakka...the sale also included some moolah for the upcoming Castlevania movie which was put on hold during the writer's strike.

    Niko Demands More!!

    Bad enough that character, Niko Bellic from Rockstar's latest opus GTA IV is continually getting shafted and feeling like he's mot much loved, but today comes the news that the real life voice actor, Michael Hollick is demanding more money for his voice services and the motion capture work he did for the face. A New York Times article is saying that Mr. Hollick apparently only got paid, in comparative terms, a measly $100,000 for his services. Michael is putting the blame for this stuff up...

    Facebreaker Video

    Great new video for Facebreaker, the Ready 2 Rumble clone for the Xbox 360 from EA Canada. Pretty visuals and likeable characters do not make up for the similarities to the Dreamcast classic peoples!

    Samba De Wii??

    Crazy Dreamcast party game, Samba De Amigo from everyone's favourite developer, Sega will be coming to the Wii for many drunken party shenanigans but alas without maracas. On the upside, your Wii-motes can and will double for them as well as the nunchuk. What's the bet though that some 3rd party hardware developer sees the potential to make a serious buck and releases said maracas for the game?? Crazy fun ensues...please release some maracas for this game. Look at the people in the trailer...
