Man, the extras in Christopher Nolan‘s upcoming The Dark Knight Rises sure are providing a ton of free press. Over the weekend, a user on reddit was on-location for a massive shoot at Pittsburgh‘s Heinz Field. Over the course of a few hours, the redditor managed to snap a series of great shots; additionally, the lucky redditor was able to grab some...

Do you feel that throbbing?  That must mean it is time for another edition of Gamer Pulse, our weekly look at video game news.  Kyle Black normally handles these duties, but this weekend he is out communing with nature while searching for Sasquatch, and has let me take a crack at Gamer Pulse.  He will be back next time, so until then, let’s get to...

I’ve been frantically awaiting the second installment in Alan Robert’s excellent indie horror comic, Crawl to Me, since I reviewed the first issue. I’ve now read the second part in this four part horror saga, and, as was the case with the first issue, I have nothing but great things to say. This issue focuses on the psychological horrors that...

We devote a lot of coverage to Batman: Arkham City, and rightfully so. The upcoming game is the sequel to one of the most beloved comic adaptations of all-time, Batman: Arkham Asylum. News today broke of some different skins that will allow players to tailor their Arkham City experience around their favorite Batman costumes. All-in-all, there will be six...

Today, news broke of an exciting new feature in Diablo III: an auction house that allows players to sell in-game items for real-life cash or in-game gold. The feature, already present in some MMOs, will allow players to “farm” items in-game and post them on an official auction house.  This announcement comes as buzz generates about the possible...

It’s Friday, which means it’s time for yet another installment of Gamer Pulse. It’s been an interesting week in the industry. We’ve got some good and some troubling news bits about Nintendo, sad news for Red Faction fans, new info about the future of the Resident Evil franchise, and a dancing robot. Trouble is, my brain is fried from a...

In the past year, gamers have been treated to three “Humble Indie Bundles” – #1, which featured World of Goo, Aquaria, Gish, Penumbra: Overture, and Lugaru, #2, which featured Braid, Cortex Command, Machinarium, Osmos, and Revenge of the Titans, and the Frozenbyte-centric bundle, which featured Trine, Shadowgrounds, and Shadowgrounds: Survivor....

I haven’t checked the thermometer yet today (out of fear, mostly), but judging by my walk from my car to the building where I work, it’s pretty damn hot out. While I regain a slightly less fluid form, I figured it would be prudent to get a Gamer Pulse up, just in case I melt at some point today. As I’m sure you’re well aware, San Diego...

If you’re an avid reader of Comic Booked, then there’s a good chance that you’re one of the countless fans who have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Batman: Arkham City, the sequel to 2009′s critically-adored Batman: Arkham Asylum. Developer Rocksteady Studios has been hard at work on the sequel, due out October 18th, for the last...

Let’s face it – we all love killing zombies. Personally, I’ve been a fan of the genre since the original Resident Evil haunted my dreams in 1996. (I was 7, cut me some slack) Since then, I’ve played almost every installment in the franchise, even the atrocious Game Boy title, Resident Evil Gaiden. I’ve also branched out to some of...

“Oh, it’s you. It’s been a long time.” Between my own vacation and our site’s migration to new servers, it’s been quite some time since last we checked the pulse of the gaming industry (see what I did there?). Those days are over, friends! As always, the gaming industry has been bubbling with news as it prepares for the...

At this year’s Wizard World Philadelphia Comic Con, Nick Cavicchio and I had a chance to meet up with a rather interesting group of creators. The Borderhounds, the creative team behind the indie publication Brimstone and the Borderhounds, were out in full-force at this year’s convention. We had a chance to chat with the head of the company, Will...

Yes, I know, this week’s Gamer Pulse is late. You can blame that on the heavy stream of non gaming-related articles I published this week. The next edition of Gamer Pulse will arrive on Friday, July 1st, so, we’ll be back on track by then. In the meantime, let’s take a look at what happened in the gaming industry this week, shall we?   -...

It’s not often that I get a chance to dive into a fresh, interesting, new title. So, when IDW reached out to us and told us about Alan Robert’s new, limited horror series, Crawl to Me, I was more than happy to jump at the chance to check it out. I was certainly not disappointed. For those of you who have yet to hear about this new series,...
