Been a while since we got a good look at Splash Damage’sBrink, huh? G4 has anexclusive new videothat shows how the game handles movement across objects, and it’s worth a watch if you’ve been keeping up with the title. The game’s S.M.A.R.T. system is something I’ve heard an awful lot about, but have never really seen it in action. It’s similar to all of those open-world games (let’s usePrototypeas an example) where you hold a button down to see your character automatically perform kickass parkour moves....

You look like the sort of dude that likes videogames — maybe asymmetric multiplayer ones. But, you also seem like the type to never pay full price for anything. Savings areverycool.

This comes fromShounen Jump; no word if it refers to the opening credits, end credits, or if you’ll need to play both games to see it. What we do know is that the sequence is being penned by Kazushige Nojima, the scenario writer forFinal Fantasy XandFinal Fantasy X-2. It will also feature newly recorded voice acting....

So, the forums were down for most of this week, which has made planning Friday Night Fights more of a struggle than it usually is. As such, the line-up for this evening is leaning more toward the lighter side. If you want to hook up with hot local singles to play videogames, you may still do that — comments here or in the now-online forums, blog posts, and carrier pigeons are all acceptable....

Nothing like a dip in a hot springs, but in order to get the geologically heated water pond inHades 2, you’ll have to take care of a few things. This is how to unlock the Hot Springs. The Crossroads Hot Springs is unlocked using the cauldron. However, the spell (and the cauldron itself) isn’t available from the start. You need to make enough progress for it to eventually become available. For me, this wasn’t until I reached the Dieldss of Mourning, which is the third area descending into Hades....

They’re all the 13th reindeer now It’s Christmas, the one day of the year the world comes together to celebrate the time Bruce Willis dropped Alan Rickman off Nakatomi Plaza. There are probably other things we celebrate too, but I’m far too drunk on the expired Four Loko I’ve been pounding since the moment I stepped through the door of my parents’ home. Wait, what am I doing again? Oh, that’s right....
