Its been a long time coming, and now there is light on the horizon for fans of the famed Diablo series. Blizzard has recently opened an online community for Diablo 3, featuring forums, videos, guides, and much more to satisfy the needs of Diablo gamers.
It gives Diablo fans the opportunity to get together before the release of the game, and plan out their battle strategies long before the fight begins. From the looks of it there is still no solid release date planned for Diablo 3, but one thing is certain: the new online community brings us one step closer to the action.

The launch of a new gaming platform is here! It may not be what you are expecting either. So be prepared to be blown away by its new and innovative system! This gaming platform is set to release in September 2011, which is next month! This is by far one of the tiniest gaming platforms I have ever seen. But just because its small doesnt mean it cant pack a punch.

Ben Heckendorn, creator of the Portal Shirt
When it comes to hacking hardware, Ben Heckendorn is considered something along the lines of a god. Mr. Heckendorn has been known to make hacks of hardware such as the Xbox 360 laptop and the Nes-On-A-Chip portable device. Well this time he went a different route and instead of focusing on a console, he focused on apparel and one of this year's best selling games, Portal 2.
Ben created the world's first Portal shirt. Yes, you heard me, a portal shirt,which you

Evil Ambassador Copiozo on: F.E.A.R. 3
The heavily influenced by Japanese horror movies FPS game is back thanks to WB Games. And while it is under design by a new studio called Day 1 Studios, they claim to be working closely with the game's original developers of the first F.E.A.R. game, Monolith. With this much backing and work being done on the game, it's probably no question that F.E.A.R. 3 will be a horror-fps game that will make you jump in fright (before retaliating with your arsenal of weapons).
Plotwise the game seems pretty well done since the game's story and

Brink has been in and out of the media for quite some time. I don't think people really know what to make of it. The developers' diary reveals a game that wants to be a little bit of everything. Splash Damage refers to it as a genre bending title and I can see why. Brink has a little bit of Mirror's Edge, it has some Team Fortress 2, and it definitely has some SOCOM elements to it as well. The developers say it breaks apart the barrier between a single player game and a multiplayer one, but what does that mean exactly?
Hyperbole aside. Brink appears to be a squad based shooter with a cool and unique art style that's almost a love child between Borderlands and Team Fortress 2. I like it, I dig the way it looks, but with the new Call of Duty map pack, will we have time to get invested? Brink definitely offers more complexity then what you find in other FPSes. It's a class based shooter that can become dangerously addictive. Everything you play under

Bloggers' Game Reviews - Plants vs Zombies
After bugging the entirety of the Evil staff to download the game for Xbox and play, I thought it would be only fitting to blog about my current addiction, Plants vs. Zombies. Developed by PopCap Games and available for Microsoft Windows, Mac OSX, iOS, Xbox 360, and as of recently the Nintendo DS, Plants vs. Zombies is sweeping the nation (and world) by getting players addicted to the highly rewarding strategy game.
For those of you who havent played, the game involves the player setting up an arsenal of offensive and defensive plants to protect from zombies crossing either the front yard, back yard,

Half of WOW Gameplay are by top gamers.
Talk about fanaticism. According to a recent study from Raptr following players time within the last two weeks since the release of World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, the top 11 percent of the most active users account for over 50% of total game play by all users. One of the most addictive games on the market clearly has its most addicted players wrapped around its figurative finger, capturing all of a certain group of peoples attentions and time much more than those of others.
And thats not to say that the bottom 89 percent doesnt log in

Virtual property with a high marked up price
Back in the year 2009, Jon Jacobs set a world record by making the biggest online purchase. A space station in the online sci-fi game Entropia Universe....this month, someone broke that record with the same game.
In a click of a button, John Foma Kalun, purchased a mall, a stadium, a club, and a number of bio-domes (not the Pauly Shore movie) in the game for the mere price of $335,000. You're probably scratching your head on why would people do such things and spend so much of their earned income for a game
