New Humble Bundle is the best yet

The Humble Indie Bundle has been known for putting together some nice groups of games, often with one big star. For the Humble Indie Bundle V they are throwing out all the stops. Bastion, Limbo, Psychonauts, Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP and Amnesia: The Dark Descent can all be yours starting at $7.40.

$7.40 is the average price at the moment and it is going up. You have to pay over the minimum to get Bastion but you could pay nothing for the rest of the games. If your a dirt bag that is. Because the money goes to charity some back to the bundle creators. Go get your bundle now.

Money is still green so there is a new Gears of War game

Could you imagine if Martin Scorsese had to work on GoodFellas sequels for 7 years? Don't get me wrong, Cliff Bleszinski is most assuredly the polar opposite of Scorsese, but shouldn't a creative head be able to break free of the shackles of one universe and work on something else?

Well, there's another Gears of War game coming. The name and the first footage will be shown at Microsoft's E3 press conference this Monday.

First trailer for 'Dawnguard'

The first trailer for the Skyrim add-on is here and depicts the war between the Dawnguard and vampires. Bethesda hopes this will make vampires a bit more masculine again, I think. I can't imagine you'll be able to play both sides of the story on one characters, but this is an Elder Scrolls game after all.

The add-on is set for sometime this summer and will be first on Xbox 360 at 1600msp ($20). Read more to see the trailer.

Patriot Armor spotted on 'Iron Man 3' set

I don't usually post things like this but this Patriot armor is just too cool. Iron Man 3 is currently filming in North Carolina and the first set photos have leaked out to reveal the Patriot Armor being used in the film.

Could this mean a cameo from Captain America? Read more to see the history of the Patriot Armor and what it could mean in the film.

Amazon Instant Video comes to Xbox 360

Not too long ago Amazon Instant Video came to the PS3. Before that happened I thought Amazon had a very interesting offering that wasn't practical to use. For $79 a year you can get a very decent offering of TV shows and movies and they are usually running some pretty good deals for movie rentals as well.

Today the service comes to the Xbox 360, if you have a gold subscription that is. The app offers all the features of the PS3 app and they have just added a new 'Watchlist' feature. You can get it now on Xbox 360 and there is also a 1-month free trial for Prime.

Game Review: Ghost Recon: Future Soldier (campaign)

In the end Ghost Recon: Future Soldier was not overtly bad but was too inconsistent in its graphics and gameplay to be worth a recommendation. The story and voice acting are some of the worst I've seen in a big budget game. The industry has grown up, albeit slightly, but the Ghost Recon series has not adapted well.

Autumn Dynasty quick look

Autumn Dynasty is a new RTS on the iPad, temporarily going for $4.99. I am loving the art style and the hardcore gameplay gives a lot to sink your teeth into. The controls work well and having a touch screen adds a different element to the genre I feel. There is also multiplayer over bluetooth or online. A pretty great package, I highly recommend this.

Papa Quash VS Johann Sebastian Joust

All day on Twitter I was hearing that someone had ripped off the home-brew PlayStation Move game, Johann Sebastian Joust and put it in iOS. My first thought was "oh must have been Zynga." My second was "that really sucks for the developer." My third was "oh, its on iOS? Now I can actually play it."

For those who don't know, you can see an instructional video here. Read more to see what I think about this situation.
