|  To: Crecente From: Crecente Trish got up at 3 a.m. today to drive into Denver so she could run a half marathon. I, on the other hand, played InFamous until 1 a.m. and then struggled to get up at 7:30 a.m. so I could feed Tristan pastries and cut the grass. In my defense I did go on a four mile, 1,000 foot incline hike in the mountains this afternoon. Yeah, Trish went too, after her race. I suck. |

|  Yesterday, tickets for BlizzCon 2009 sold out in record time, some say even before they officially went on sale. So color me surprised that today eBay is lousy with the tickets. Prices are all over the place, with the highest buy it now price for a set currently listed at $1,500. The highest bid as of this afternoon for a set was at $910 with four days left to go. |

| Battlefield Heroes Being Ported to 360, PS3?
May 17, 2009 at 4:45 pm
|
|   According to a report from GOONL!NE (via Joystiq), it looks like either Electronic Arts and DICE have a big surprise in store for June, or an error to correct on the EA press site. A listing shows that Battlefield Heroes is supposedly in the works for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and what's more, it's planned for release as soon as June... |

|
|  Before Team Ninja leader Tomonobu Itagaki left Tecmo (and sued them for good measure), he had stated that Ninja Gaiden 2 would be the end of the series. But of course Itagaki did leave Tecmo, and now Yosuke Hayashi has stepped in as the new Team Ninja boss. |

May 17, 2009 at 3:00 pm
|
|   Spring 2009 hasn't been a particularly eventful one at retail for the gaming industry, a fact prominently supported by two consecutive months of 17 percent sales declines.

The Wii, in particular, is in for a big week, thanks to a one-two combo from Nintendo and Electronic Arts... |

May 17, 2009 at 2:00 pm
|
|  E3 2009 is just weeks away and with the event once more open to models companies are starting to look for folks to distract gamers from their games. Superannuation took a quick dig through LA's Craigslist to find a couple casting calls: One for bikini models, the other for a muscular man. Which do you think pays more? |
| Why Parachutes, Sharks and Helicopters Don't Mix
May 17, 2009 at 1:00 pm
|
|  It's a pretty basic premise: You need to make sure the the dropping from parachutes land safely on the boat. But add some lightning, sharks, and spinning helicopter blades and you've got a keeper. No word yet on when Parachute Panic is set to hit the iphone or for how much. |

| APB Devs Working On Another Game?
May 17, 2009 at 11:00 am
|
|  So that headline's probably stating the obvious. I would imagine there are lots of studios working on something besides what they've already announced. But with Realtime Worlds well into development of APB, and the original Crackdown under their belt you can't help but wonder, are they hard at work on Crackdown 2? |
| Meet The Spy, Doing Your Mom
May 17, 2009 at 1:30 am
|
|  What kind of master spy leaks Valve's Meet the Spy video onto the internet in the middle of the night? The same kind that has sexual relations with the Scout's mom.This is exactly what happens when you'[re all sneaky. Someone goes and sneaks right back, uploading your introduction video all over the internet. Perhaps this is payback for the Spy taking over the Team Fortress 2 Sniper update halfway though? Either way, the video does feature the best line appearing in anything, ever. |

| InFamous, Rock Band Unplugged Top Experience Playstation Now Showcase
May 16, 2009 at 6:32 pm
|
|  Playstation today invaded Best Buys across the country as part of a new outreach program entitled Experience Playstation Now. The idea is that Playstation reps take to stores with some new games and plenty of knowledge to help educate people about the benefits of Playstation ownership. While this means games, it also means showing off some of the PS3's other, more unique abilities like media streaming, PSP linking and Blu-ray playing. |
