Lick the world: Goat Simulator releases for Xbox One and Xbox 360 in April

Better tell the teens about this Oh, right,Goat Simulatoris coming to Xbox One and Xbox 360. That’s happening in April. This short new trailer says as much, but there’s another reason to watch: a real goat stands on an Xbox One. It tickles me knowing they had to wrangle a goat into a green-screen room. After last time, I now feel pressured to triple-check that I wrote “simulator” and not “stimulator” when covering this silly game....

Yep, this is the real deal, no lie While the rest of the world awaits the proper Xbox 720 reveal, ScrewAttack managed to learn all the juicy details and spoil the whole mess. Behold, Microsoft’s grand master plan to edge out the PlayStation 4juuuuuuuuuustslightly! This won’t be surprising coming from a guy whohasn’t even fully enteredthe current generation yet, but I don’t have high hopes for the new Xbox. I’ve got this gut feeling that Microsoft will do everything monumentally wrong, pissing off consumers and devs in droves....

Soulcalibur on XBLA this Wednesday

When I think ofSoulcalibur,two things always come to my mind: the first being “transcending history and the world, a tale of swords and souls eternally retold,” and the second being “best fighting game ever.” I’m sure there are quite a few of you who think otherwise, but you have to admit,Soulcaliburis still a damn fine game. But is it worth spending 800 Microsoft Points just so you can play it again on your Xbox 360?...

I’m a big fan of long shots Filmmaker Warialasky and friends made this live-action movie based onSplinter Cell: Convictionand it’s pretty damn cool. There are several scenes in the film that’s just one big long shot, which is no easy task to do. The amount of planning and choreography to make these happen are challenging, but definitely worth it. I did find the voiceovers from the game to be a bit cheesy, but still a pretty fun watch for fans ofSplinter Cell....
