"What is better than video games and really hot chicks? When said really hot chicks are dressed up as video game characters. After the jump is our official Loot Ninja Cosplay Girl of the Week. We don't know her name, but we like it that way. Remember, just because you wanna bang a Pikachu, that doesn't make you a deviant.

New Modern Warfare 2 Glitch Plaguing Xbox 360 Version

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 02:58:07 GMT

GamingUnion.net writes, "Infinity Ward was quick to fix some of the major bugs that had been plaguing the multiplayer portion of Modern Warfare 2. Using a combination of unusual button sequences, weapon swaps, and sometimes careful jumping players have been able to exploit the game's programming to cheat. Two of the more prominent bugs (the Javelin and Care Package glitch) were fixed in the most recent online update, as well as many of the bugs allowing players to move inside walls. However some of the exploits remain in the game, and have seen increased use with the removal of other exploits."

VGA World Premiere Halo Reach Trailer

Will Halo Reach be using a new engine? View the screenshots, you be the judge.

Burn360 writes: The highly anticipated trailer for Halo: Reach has come and gone and left us to ponder what is to come. With the beta due out in the Spring of 2010, only time will answer the burning questions that Halo fans ponder. Immediate reactions to the trailer released at the 2009 Spike VGA's are that fans are not overwhelmed by the graphics of Reach. Although pretty, the question has got to be asked : Is Halo: Reach using a new engine? Judging by the screenshots, theories are mixed. Have a close look at some still shots from the trailer released by Bungie....more

New MW 2 glitch unlimited ammo and no reloading.

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 19:33:19 GMT

Ok so last night while randomly joining a team Deathmatch game we joined this server where there is unlimited ammo and no reloading for everyone. Were pretty sure this was a server error/glitch and not somebody doing it as we had a constant stream of new people. Below is a video clip of our experience as you can see it turns into a grenade launcher war for the most part. Also in the video is a shot of the AC130 which also has NO reloading and becomes an automatic death machine.

Endurance: Halo: Reach Proves Xbox 360 has it

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 12:06:12 GMT

Notice the image above? It's meant to display the lasting pull of the Xbox 360. Ever since the new Halo: Reach trailer was unveiled, the internet has been in an uproar. Some questioned the validity of the showing while believers were awestruck, and now the speculations run endless. But there's one thing that Bungie's biggest effort yet demonstrates: Xbox 360 has staying power and will stand next to PS3 for years to come; this must be reassuring to Microsoft.

Is The Xbox 360 Lineup in 2010 The Best Ever For the 360?

Thu, 10 Dec 2009 19:08:23 GMT

The Bitbag writes: "(Let me preface this by saying that I'm not comparing the 360 lineup to the PS3 lineup at all. I'm comparing this lineup to past 360 lineups, most notably 2007. The PS3 has a great lineup next year as well and may be the best ever for the PS3 too.)

At E3, I was fortunate enough to go to both the Microsoft and Sony press conferences and get a first hand look at both companies lineups for the near future. Both conferences showcased games coming out in 2009/2010. At the end of those two days, many people talked about which conference was better? A lot of people said that Microsoft had a more well spread out conference, and Sony had a conference that was just one heavy hitting game after another. Microsoft was focusing on Natal, Milo, Metal Gear coming to the 360, and announcing a smaller list of exclusives. While Sony focused on one awesome game after another, and then their motion control."

How Halo: Reach Graphics Are Real-Time (And Borrow from Killzone 2)

Sun, 13 Dec 2009 18:54:47 GMT

Split-Screen: "If you haven't seen the world premiere of Halo: Reach at the Spike TV Video Game Awards 2009, then, well, it doesn't make much difference. It wasn't the lackluster 'That's it?' of the E3 2K9 reveal but it wasn't the awesome testosterone fest of Halo 2's (ultimately watered down) New Mombasa gameplay reveal at E3 2003. That said, Halo: Reach looks far better than any Halo to date. Queries have been arising as to whether the game is running on a new engine or not, but we can confirm one thing: Yes, Reach is running in real time."

Update: To verify, it is the portions after the 0:34 mark in the trailer that we are referring to as real time.
