Nerdlesque is a bi-monthly burlesque review with a different nerd culture theme each time around. Last month they did a comic book motif, and this time it was video games. Yes, this means exactly what you hope it does: Attractive women dressed up like video game characters, who then strip out of their costumes. A winner is you!

On your marks get set and go. Calling all fans of racing games, Xbox 360 has a new surprise for you. On July 22nd Microsoft confirmed that they have a wireless speed wheel in the works. The price of the wheel will only be around $45, a lot cheaper than what we would expect. The thing about this wireless wheel is its relationship to Kinect. Would it make sense for you to go out and buy a wireless wheel when Kinect should allow you to steer with just your hands? It appears Microsoft has gone the same route as Nintendo, releasing a wheel peripheral that should (in theory) be unnecessary along with an anticipated racing game.
The definition for Cliffhanger is an adventure that ends in suspense in order to interest the reader or viewer in the next installment. This has been the case for many games that have left us hanging on the edge.

There are some games that have the potential for future sequels but never pan out because it didn’t sell well or had bad reviews.

God. Designed by Eric Chahi, From Dust gives gamers the powers of a god. It
starts in a desert-like setting where you can initially control the sand around
you. The primary objective is to ensure the survival of your village and its
inhabitants. Players will be given the powers of controlling the environment
surrounding the villagers that depend on them to live. You will be able to
control factors from water and sand to life-threatening lava. There is more to
the game than meets the eye.
