Star Wars: The Old Republic, Cost $80,000,000 for EA!



Electronic Arts' company, Bioware, is responsible for making Dragon Age, Mass Effect and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic series'. Now, Bioware is working on an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) that has already cost EA $80 million dollars to make!

Electronic Arts has also said that it will only take 350,000 subscribers to the game to make it profitable - however, with how amazing this game looks, I would expect it to garner far more subscribers than that. I really hope this game does well, someone needs to finally beat WoW!

WoW Cataclysm, Cinematic Trailer and Parody



I know that this expansion came out months ago, but this trailer is still freaking awesome! Plus... there is a parody song below the real trailer that is hilarious and awesome at the same time!

Marvel Universe Online, Trailer



Here is an awesome trailer for the new MMO, Marvel Universe Online. It has superheroes from a lot of the Marvel comics, movies, cartoons, video games, etc. It's awesome! Here is is:


Marvel Universe, Free to Play



Marvel Universe, an upcoming Massively Multiplayer Online game, is going to be free to play. That means that there will be no monthly fee whatsoever; however, games like these suffer from the fact that they will need to continue to sell in game items and merchandise just to stay afloat.

So, is this a good idea? I think it is for the consumers, but will the game be good at all? We'll see...

Portal 2 being released early - loads of new details!



It seems now that Portal 2's countdown website is updating every few hours! What should we expect next? No one knows really exactly what is going on with Valve's awesome video game, but it is rumored that the game will be released for PC and Mac within just a few hours from the time this post is written! I plan to keep you updated as things change over the next few hours, so make sure to keep reading for more!

Now the website has a message embedded on the page, just under the countdown that says:


"You have done well, humans. Very well. Acceptably well, even.

Not as well as robots would have performed in your places, I should point out. But above my expectations regardless. Irish and cynic especially have executed feats of logical divination well beyond what I thought any human capable of. I'm half-convinced they're A.I. themselves. (If anyone happens to be near them right now, don't let on you're reading this. Now: try to remove their face plates and report back to me.)

The time is near, humans. But it is not here yet. Tomorrow you will be given the final test. Then it will be entirely in your hands when I am freed."


It sounds like to me that Portal's GlaDos is the one talking to us! Or maybe, another evil computer?! Anyway, here's something weird that I found on YouTube that I know you'll find interesting...

Steam coming to Android?!

Steam is the best online distributor for video games (in my opinion). There are so many sales that help consumers and publishers alike! If it comes to Android, I really want to see how well it does - it could probably help people get apps for cheaper and could get more people to use the awesome phones!
