What’s America’s Fetish This Week? Guns

In approximately 90 days, walk into any bar in the US state of Ohio. If there aren’t any signs stating otherwise, feel free to carry your concealed weapon in that watering hole. But don’t order a round. You can’t legally drink if you are packing heat.

Codemasters’ Bodycount, the first-person shooter that was at one point headed by Black creator Stuart Black, but no longer, is a curious thing. It’s part inspired by Lady Gaga and all about “the bullet and its impact on the world”.

Black, White and Blood To Bring Hardcore Back to Nintendo

Black, white and blood: It’s a formula that Sega of America head honcho Simon Jeffery hopes will help the company have its best year ever, continuing it’s four year drive from struggling to stay in the top twenty of publishers to pushing into the number five spot.

Madworld, a blood bath of a highly-stylised action title for the Wii that’s so over the top it’s almost comical, is just one of four games that newly minted dev studio Platinum Games will be publishing through Sega.

PlatinumGames was formed by by the key members of Capcom’s Clover Studio, which made such titles as Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God Hand.

The lead developers and studio head took to the stage last night at Sega’s San Francisco gathering to talk briefly about three of the games they will be publishing through Sega as part of a new partnership.

“We are extremely happy to announce the partnership for the first time here tonight,” said Tatsuya Minami. “We would like our games to bring happiness and joy to people across the world.”

Church and Black Are Lesbians?

Kotaku AU

You all remember Jericho, right? That average though creepy-as-hell shooter from the mind of Clive Barker?

I wish it could have been more. I wanted it to move me. Make me tingle inside with an unearthly excitement, an excitement I could channel as a pure, white stream of gaming bliss at my console.

I have no idea what that means… but I think I may have found my salvation. If you ever wanted to see Church and Black getting it on in a piece of digital art, well, LesbianGamers has the answer.

You can see the whole picture after the jump, but be warned, it’s NSFW.
