Harley Quinn's Revenge Is Batman: Arkham City's Bad New Ending It is flyers like this one that make me glad I changed the format of Arcade Flyer Art Saturday. Despite my best efforts, I could not dig up any information on this game, Fantastic Voyage. Even KLOV, normally a repository of every arcade machine ever made, has no information on this one. It would seem an easy conclusion to make that this has something to do with the 60′s movie starring Raquel Welch where a team of scientists are shrunk to a tiny size and injected into a man’s body, but alas, it is not. There was an Atari 2600 game based on that movie and comparing the screenshots of it and the ones presented on this flyer lead me to believe that they are completely unrelated.
I got a chance to sneak over to Ubisoft’s San Francisco office during the Game Developers Conference and sit down with Michael de Plater, creative director Tom Clancy’s EndWar, to talk about the upcoming voice-command strategy game. Better still, I also got a chance to actually play it—and what I saw impressed me.
Yesterday’s Grand Theft Auto IV info glut didn’t just include 20 new screens, there were also a handful of new wallpapers featuring drugs, cops, guns and tatas. There were also two new widgets for two more radio stations. Hit the jump to listen to the grooves of K109 The Studio and the rants of WKTT Talk Radio.
People in New Zealand have obviously forgotten their video game heritage. It’s gotten so bad that advertising firm Republic was commissioned to create a series of advertisements aimed at reminding the nation of movie extras exactly where their current sports console games came from. I think this is a good start, but we need more. What we need – and what I would provide had I the time – is Saint George and the Dragon, only with the classic Adventure duck-dragon in place of the ferocious beast. Ah, for the good old days, when I could spend lazy hours photoshopping the Trix rabbit into “The Last Supper.”

Yes, Europe, you pay too much for games. I feel your pain. If your purse-strings are pinched too tightly to allow for full-price gaming, though, you’ll be interested to know that SCEE have announced some price-cuts for some of their older PS3 games. No mention of whether or not this constitutes the PS3 debut of the European “Platinum” range, but looking at the list of titles, I’d wager that’s a “yes”.
Nick Larsen put together this kinda cute LEGO stop-motion film featuring Portal’s end theme song Still Alive. The music video used more than 1,300 individual pictures and while it isn’t quite up to snuff with some of the other videos spawned by Portal exuberance, I still think it’s worth a watch. Fahey found it boring, but he has no soul.
