I'm not sure if everyone got this email from Sony today, but LA area gamers can be the first to play with the Playstation Move tomorrow (Tuesday, June 15) if they show up between 6 and 9pm at one of three participating Best Buys throughout the city.

If you go, I hope you have fun, but you won't see me there. I'll be at the Los Angeles Convention Center gettin' mah E3 on, then heading to Hollywood for an exclusive party put on by Nexon so's I can get my free drink on. Ya heard?

I spent part of my work day today reading a beginner's guide to Eve Online (when you work at a game company, these activities are called "research"). Even after a couple hours of reading it, I'm still overwhelmed with the level of content that is within that game. 

It took less time to learn how to shoot an M16 in the militray, and that can kill someone.
 
Also Available This Week: PSN Edition: Joe Danger

Coming exclusively to the Playstation Store this week, is Hello Games' Joe Danger. What is it, you ask? Well, the game looks to play a lot like the brilliant Trials HD, albeit a slightly less serious, more feature-packed version.

As you can see from the video after the break, the game looks straight-up awesome, and features a split-screen multiplayer mode, in addition to an extremely neat looking on-the-fly level editor. Go check it out!

If you think the game looks awesome, and just can't wait for it to come out, then you're in luck; the game released in North America on June 8th, (thanks for the heads up, Sony!) for the price of $14.99. The game is also set to release in Europe and Australia on June 9th, and will retail for €14.99 EU or £9.99 UK -- there doesn't seem to be any confirmation on the Australian price yet.

As previously stated, Joe Danger is a PSN exclusive; sorry Xbox owners. Check out the video after the break.

I Will Not Touch These. No Sir.

I just saw these new guitars for Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock today, and all of their gasp-inducing ugliness. Seriously, do they really expect anyone over the age of 12 to want to have these guitars sitting in any living room across America? Poo poo, Activision, poo poo. Not only is the title of your new game ridiculous, but these instruments are ghastly.
 
Available For Download This Week: Earthworm Jim

This week's downloadable title is a treat for 16-bit era gamers, as the HD remake of Earthworm Jim is set to release on XBLA on June 9th, for the price of 800MSP.

For the uninitiated, Earthworm Jim was originally developed by Shiny Entertainment, and was based around the premise of an earthworm who accidentally stumbled across a bionic suit, and became a superhero. As well as being quite literally insane, the game (and the resulting cartoon show) was a lot of fun, and introduced some of the 16-bit era's most quirky characters, such as Peter Puppy, Psy-crow, Evil the Cat, and Professor Monkey-For-A-Head (really!), as well as some pretty unforgettable moments in gaming history, like, say for example, launching a cow into space using a fridge and a see-saw (yes, really!). Let's just hope that Gameloft do a good job with the remake.

As a special treat, I have not only included a trailer for the game after the break, but have also included the Youtube videos for one full episode of the cartoon, so hit the link for much old-school goodness. Seriously, why are you still reading this? just click the link already!

Feed Your Inner Geek. Machine. Perpetually.

As some of you may already be aware, we are one of two gaming websites here on the Bloguin network; the other being The BBPS. Anyone who listened to the their now defunct podcast, The Bitcast, will know that the guys behind The BBPS have decided to start up a new site, called Perpetual Geek Machine, and with it, have started a new podcast too.

As I understand it, the new site will have a much broader focus, and will feature anything and everything geek related, and not just games, so expect to hear much talk about movies, tech, and a whole bunch of other stuff too.

Episode 1 of the PGM cast is available to download here (iTunes link), or can be streamed from the site. The site is still in its infancy, so there's not much content up for now, but be sure to check back over the next couple of weeks to see how things are shaping up.
 
Now That Is How You Do Game Progress

Red Dead Redemption game progress

(Click the image for hi- res)
So what you see here is my Rockstar Social club detail page for Red Dead Redemption. As you can tell from the way-long picture above (sorry but you had to see it in all it's glory) I've  completed almost half of the game, collected 3 of the outfits and discovered most of the map. You can compare your stats with those of your friends like I did here with Mark. 

Is this not some of the best online stat-tracking you've ever seen? I really like the way this looks and how easy it is to see what has and has not been done. Only problem? You have to sign in to Rockstar, set up another miscellaneous online profile for a game company and actually use the Internet to access it.

As awesome as this feature is... couldn't they put this in the game? I know the info is in the game, but the menu interface is so clunky and "D-pad dependant" that I only wish the image you see above would be displayed on my game screen if I hit the back button twice. How nice would that be?

I just found my next Halloween and/or Cosplay costume. I already have pretty much that exact outfit! Now if I could only grow a hunky 5 o'clock shadow. Hmmm...*strokes smooth, stubble-less chin*.

My childhood fave board game, and what ultimately led to me joining the Navy, Battleship, is available now on the iPhone for $.99, and I strongly suggest you buy it, shipmate.

Slick graphics, short-enough-to-not-be-annoying battle animations, multiplayer, ranking system, and some fresh new game modes that are surprisingly fun (including an awesome "Super Weapons" mode), and you've just spent the best 12.9261 pesos of the last three months of your life, buddy.
