The full version of that wack teaser that dropped yesterday is finally out and I must say, I'm not disappointed. Everything about this video reminds me of the old version. It still has a fresh new smell to it, but it kept the essence. I tip my hat off to EA for a great job keeping that feel visually, but I have yet to lay my hands on a controller s...

If you get mad very easily do not look at this video. Very quick literally 2 second style video gameplay of NBA Jam for the Nintendo Wii has been set free. Honestly, EA Sports should have just kept this in the vault, what a tease. Shows off one of the famous catch phrases from the game though. I wonder if that's the same voice over guy? ...

Harmonix has just confirmed that we will be rocking out this holiday with Rock Band 3. Koalition staff might not be all over this announcement but I am.

Some of you might be stepping into the 8-bit world this month thanks to Capcom. Mega Man 10 is heading to all consoles near you, and in case you want a little hip-hop to go along with your 8-bit music, Ransom AKA Mega Ran provides.

Looking at the box art for Super Mario Galaxy 2 I can't help but smile. This directly appeals to the Nintendo Fanboy inside me, so much so that this might actually be my favorite box art of all time. So much color, so much magic, so much Mario, this cover just screams "FUN!" and best of all the logo is no longer insinuating that the end user is a h...

I was a huge Ghostbusters fan in my childhood, and I am sure I am not the only one who used to run around the house imagining I was capturing ghosts. Of course I don't do that now, but seeing this custom made Ghostbusters Wii wand makes me wish I had it back in the day. Some Ghostbusters fan forum members took it upon themselves to construct this W...

Back in 1991, Sega introduced Sonic the Hedgehog to the masses. Back then it was a phenomenon. Sonic was the mascot to beat for many years. Then, Sega and Sonic Team lost their way and some of the staff. With the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, Sonic had the perfect platform to go up against Mario and Nintendo. Sega had the winning formula, great characte...

So while doing a few Koalition duties last week I was watching the Olympics and saw something unusual. Matter of fact I had no idea this "Sport" even existed until now. I saw a guy slide what looked like a fat round silver disc down a sheet of ice. Then a few other guys would try to control the direction and speed of the disc like object with somet...
