Are you itching for your first skillshot in Bulletstorm, the brand new game from People Can Fly and Epic games? You will not have to wait too much longer. EA just released a press statement stating that a demo for Bulletstorm will be released on January 25 on Xbox LIVE and the Playstation Network.

Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, has said that Microsoft might roll out PC support for Kinect at “the right time.”

505 Games has decided to enter itself into the MMA fold, similarly to how they entered the football fold (more like field, ehh?) this past summer with Backbreaker, though this time their game is called Supremacy MMA.

First off, how much of a treat is this game for anyone who loves Pac-Man (and generally anything awesome). Why did nobody think of doing a Pac-Man game in this fashion before, taking obvious notes from recent arcade hits this is easily the definitive version of Pac-Man.

Fortunately, a Pac-Maniac (see what I did there?), me, has compiled a list of the top 5 maps that are guaranteed to get your waka waka waka on!
