About a week ago Jack Thompson not only told gamers to “go to hell”, but also claimed the recently released Medal of Honor game could be used by “America’s enemies” as training simulators, teaching them how to kill Americans. I wasn’t the only one who thought this was absolutely ludicruous. Yet there’s more to this than meets the eye.
Fresh off the bat-press, it’s more bat-screenshots from the upcoming Batman: Arkham City. Get ready to have your bat-eyes melted, bat-fans, because these are bat-tastic! And no, I won’t tire of that. Not yet, anyway.
Talking to Joystiq Limbo developer Playdead has told the website that it is currently iworking on a new IP, after the recent success of Xbox Live exclusive Limbo turned out to be a smash hit.
More stuff from Marvel out of this year’s New York Comic Con. Captain America: Super Soldier was announced a few weeks back, and the first gameplay footage has already hit the web.

Jimi Hendrix’s “Are You Experienced?” had the honor of pushing game’s library over the landmark. The press release states that players have downloaded over 75 million tracks from the Rock Band Store and the Rock Band Network. Freakin’ amazing. Kudos, Harmonix!

A while ago Jack Thompson was disbarred, ridding the world of video games of his villainy for a while. And we saw that it was good. As it turns out, you can’t keep a proper asshole down, meaning ol’Jack is on the warpath again. His target this time: Medal of Honor.
