Last night the votes were tabulated and the awards were given out for G4’s G-phoria. The votes were cast by the fans on the G4 website or by text message. Games had to be released between July 31, 2007 and July 31, 2008. If you want to blame anyone for the crappy selections, you have no one to blame but yourselves (for either having bad taste or not voting at all).

Horray! I get to eat this week because there is sweet fuck all that is a worthy buy this week. Unless you really want that Beijing 2008 thing, surely someone, somewhere has uttered the sentence: “I wish there was a Discus game for the PC.” OK maybe not.

Personally, I have never been too fond of fighter games. Not my thing. I do have to say though, Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe (MK vs DC for short), looks pretty kick ass.
The game is written by comic vets Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray. To keep up with the realism style that the MK series has always preferred over the cartoony look of the Street Fighter series, MK vs DC will be powered by the Unreal 3 engine.
The list of characters is still under wraps for now, but we were able to confirm Batman, Flash, Catwoman, Captain Marvel and Superman on the DC side as well as Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub Zero, Shang Tsung and Sonya Blade for MK.
Step one: Watch the trailer below.
Step Two: Read comics till November 17th (release date).
Despite being turned away in April, the highly acclaimed game Portal will be make it’s way onto Xbox Live in the near future under the semi new name Portal Still Alive.
The story will remain the same as the original, but there will be additional puzzles, levels, achievements and cake. No word yet on the possibility of the game also seeing life on PS3 or PC.
Fans and GlaDOS can now have their cake and eat it too.
As you have probably noticed, GvL has un-reverted from the previous design to the current design. There was a technical problem with the design that had been custom designed for GvL, and I finally fixed it!
Yay for progress!
As an added benefit, there is a little secret that I have coded into the new site. Can you guess? (Here’s a hint, it has to do with web comics.) The aforementioned secret isn’t complete yet, but it is useable.
In any case, no background yet. (Joe hated the original one, and the last one was too girly.)
So, let’s have a contest! Email your background image to dan.spacemonkeys@gmail.com, and the winner will be obvious
