We've Gone into "Grand Theft Auto IV Fever" Mode

Yes. As you can tell, the site has had a few modifications for the Grand Theft Auto IV launch. We are probably more excited than you are for this game. We've been watching gameplay non-stop since they've first started appearing (along with some episodes of Heroes with the brother, playing basketball on the side) anxiously waiting. We are not sure if we are getting a review copy or not, but either way we are going to be at our local GameStop tomorrow night at 10:00PM waiting for the 12 o' clock launch. If you want to see us, ask around to see if anybody is from onAXIS. You never know if you will find us. We will try to take pictures.

By the way, the new site is very close to launching. (*leaves with that*)

Grand Theft Auto IV: IGN Review 10/10


Well, the first video review for Grand Theft Auto IV is finally here, and it is from IGN. The written review also has the "better-looking version" section. Lets take a look.
"For those wanting to know which version looks better, the edge goes to the PS3. The textures and framerate are comparable, but the PS3 has far less pop-in. The 360 has richer colors, but the PS3 has better anti-aliasing making it look a little cleaner. Because GTA IV can preload onto the PS3 hard drive, the in-game loads are faster. Don't worry Xbox owners, the load times are rarely more than 30 seconds and don't occur very often. The slight visual edge goes to PS3, but the 360 is no slouch. Either version will do you proud."
Yeup, the PlayStation 3 won that, but I'm sure both versions of the game play exactly the same. Tuesday cannot come any sooner.

Madden NFL 09 to Run at 60fps on PlayStation 3, Screenshots


In a new intervivew with Phil Frazier, one of Madden 09's lead designers, he tells us about the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game. He says that "They are equal, and they're both running at 60 frames-per-second this year. An interesting thing to point out is not only are they both running at 60 fps, but we've also made a huge leap in terms of graphics.". Don't believe him? "We're proud of that and I think our fans on PS3 this year should have no reason to feel disappointed." Lets take his word, and lets try and get a good Madden this year. For now, enjoy the shots.

Electronic Gaming June 2008 Rumors and Grand Theft Auto IV Review

The latest issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly comes packed with content. They revealed a new Splatterhouse retro revival title for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, along with showing some other previously seen retro revivals due to hit consoles.

Their rumors column was interesting this month. Lets take a look.

- Bioshock to hit PlayStation 3 in September 2008 with better visuals and all the downloadable content, around the same time that they will reveal some of Bioshock 2.
- Max Payne 3, Red Dead Revolver 2, and a Grand Theft Auto MMO (possibly) in the works.
- L.A. Noire is no longer a PlayStation 3 exclusive.
- Persona 4 to hit North America before 2008 ends. Persona for PSP and PlayStation 3 in the works.
- Rock Band 2 is in the works with new game modes.
- 3D Castlevania for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 is in the works.
- Metal Gear Solid 4 bundle to be very limited. Pre-order while you can.
We are excited about these rumors for the most part.

The ne wissue also reviewed the one and only Grand Theft Auto IV, giving it all perfect scores, besides one (A+, A+, A). Regarding which version of the game is the right to buy, they said "360 for DLC, PS3 version looks slightly more vibrant and sharp". I guess those reports are true then.

[EGM June 2008 Reviews and Rumors]

Update: IGN has contacted 2K Games on the Bioshock for PlayStation 3 rumor and they responded with a "No Comment." That usually means they have something to hide.
