TrueGameHeadz is the brain child of a group of gamers who all hail from NYC and have come to appreciate all the great things about video games. Read More
Hulk Hogan wasn’t the only WWF (I know it’s WWE… but I just can’t call it that) superstar to end up on television. King Kong Bundy appeared on a few episodes of FOX’s Married with Children back in the day, as himself, and I believe he took on Al in the ring. Either way, check out two of wrestling’s heavyweights duke it out in the ring on today’s Play Theater for “Legends of Wrestlmania,” from the first “Relive portion” of the game. See how THQ and Yukes put together archive footage and combine gameplay to hype up yesterday’s past greats!
Yeah it’s Fiddy. Here we have a game that by any shape or form sounds like it should be bad. A lot of people are expecting it to be bad based on 50’s first game, “Bulletproof.” But hey, for some reason that game sold millions, so, like any blockbuster, you know it would get a “sequel.” After getting a chance to sit down with the man himself in our exclusive preview, and getting some hands on time with the game TrueGameHeadz came away feeling good about the project.
The full retail version does not disappoint. I must say that Swordfish Studios did their homework for “Blood on the Sand.” Developers of the little known sleeper title “Cold Winter” from back in the day, they nailed the big budget “blockbuster” feel of this game. Borrowing generously from the ideals seen in last year’s Sega release, “The Club,” and “Gears of War,” they developed a control scheme for “Get Rich” …er “Blood in the Sand” that feels polished and familiar. You will not find any problems with the control setup as you’ll feel in control when using the game’s many weapons, and the cover system works admirably. The Counter Kill system can be considered comparable to the chain saw kill in “Gears” where you run up to the enemy and hit the attack button, which launches a quick time event that shows you how bad war can be.

It’s astounding to me that “Deadly Creatures,” or a game similar to it has never been made. At no point in the past 30 years has anyone ever really attempted to combine two things that ten-year-old boys love so much, creepy creatures and video games. It seems like it would be a sure thing, but, up until now, no one has really attempted it, but thanks to THQ’s Rainbow Studios the world finally has a worthy entry into the arachnid simulation genre. Get ready to be creeped out – “Deadly Creatures” is not entirely what it seems.
Sure, “Deadly Creatures” could have been a pretty straightforward game where all you need to do is survive the wilds of the animal kingdom… but when you dig a little deeper there’s a whole lot more going on. You play the game as two of nature’s most dangerous characters (also known as two things you never want to find in your bed), a scorpion, and a tarantula, exploring the desert around their home and unraveling the a mystery of a missing treasure.

What up people! GamePlay had the privilege of sitting down with the one and only 50 Cent to talk about his upcoming sophomore gaming effort, “Blood on the Sand”. This title definitely looks action packed with a big budget Hollywood blockbuster feel. Watch our exclusive preview of new gameplay live and direct with 50 himself on the motivation for this game and why it’s gonna bump harder than Bulletproof.
50 cent is back and with a brand new trailer for his recently “brought back from the dead” game, 50 cent: Blood in the Sand. And a couple things can be learned from this trailer, don’t steal 50’s crystal skulls! he like’s to blow ‘ish up…alot and expect to hear some new Read the rest of this entry »
“Saints Row 2.” The very words will automatically make the inevitable comparison to the sandbox genre’s father, “Grand Theft Auto.” It’s not really a surprise though, as both games deal with the criminal lifestyle, offer a wide variety of activities in a metropolitan environment, and involve hijacking vehicles.Fortunately, the comparisons end there. “Grand Theft Auto 4” showed the world that Rockstar wants a Hollywood contract, whereas “Saints Row 2” shoved players down into an alternative universe filled with shit spraying trucks, chainsaw wielding cop impersonators, and purple ninjas. So how does this game pan out with all the lowbrow humor and novelty? Surprisingly enough, it’s still a good game beneath all the glitter. Read the rest of this entry »
Those are tears of joy for 50 Cent! Awhile ago we told you about 50’s newest game Blood On The Sand being dumped because of it’s publishers merger. Well it looks like the fine folks at THQ didn’t want to see 50’s game go by the ways side Read the rest of this entry »
Last week, THQ celebrated the release of their new Wii game “de Blob” by delivering and painting a giant pumpkin to NYC’s City Hall. Sir G was on hand to check out the celebration, and find out more about the game. Read the rest of this entry »
Revolution has always been a great theme for video games. Why wouldn’t it be? Good versus evil; the oppressed rising up against the oppressor; underdogs overthrowing the controlling regime. Who would have thought that idea would have translated so well to a game staring a blob? Not just any blob though, it’s “de Blob,” from THQ’s new Wii title about a ball of liquid committed to bringing color back to a monochrome world. While the plot may sound a bit out there, the game play, and shear entertainment factor make it easily one of the best Wii titles to date. Read the rest of this entry »
