Add Some Videogame Awesomeness To Your Phone

May 19, 2012 – 10:51 am

Looking to add some flavor to your cellphone? Want to give it that extra nerdy flair or just a reminder of your fave game songs? There’s a site I use called Audiko.net that allows you to upload and create your own ringtones, and then download them directly to iTunes in .m4r format for iPhones or .MP3 format for everything else. There is also a massive library of tones–not just videogames tones– that can be searched to find that one special tone you are looking for, all for free. I thought I’d put together a list of some ringtones as well as some text tones that I use, and that you, our lovely readers may enjoy. You can check out the list after the break.

Gas Guzzlers: Car Combat Launch Trailer

May 18, 2012 – 10:20 am

While some games in the past have tried to make a racing/combat hybrid title work in a more mature fashion than kiddie kart racers, they always fell a bit short of the brutally merciless mark. Enter Gas Guzzlers from developer Gamepires, which brings the frenetic pace of racing games such as Need For Speed and mixes it together with the brutal battle style of Twisted Metal.

Available starting today from EA Origin, Gamefly, Impulse and Cenega for $31.99, the gorgeous hybrid of death and speed is a game that hearkens back to classic combat racing gameplay, built with an entirely original engine.

Diablo 3 Secret Level is Quite Whimsy

May 18, 2012 – 2:13 am

Much like the Secret Cow Level of Diablo 2, Blizzard has put in another secret level in the recently released, Diablo 3. The cutesy and colorful level is called “Whimsyshire” and unicorns, teddy bears, and rainbows, are just some of the things you can find there to slaughter. According to Youtube user DiabloChronicle, the way to Whimsyshire isn’t quite so straightforward. You can find the requirements and a video of the level after the jump.

May 17, 2012 – 9:46 pm

Death rides again in this latest trailer of the upcoming Darksiders II that is set to be released on August 14th, 2012. In this second part of “Death Strikes”, the other, other horseman sets off on his pale horse and battles what can only be described as one hell of a huge enemy. If these are the types of enemies that we can expect in Darksiders II, than you can count me in.
