$2,000 Call of Duty: World at War weekly roundup
$2,000 CoD:WW Map Pack 1 tournament. Registration OPEN March 19 to May 17.

PS3
If you've been following the Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 1 tournament here on GGL, you'll know that we saw a big shakeup last week.
Unfortunately one of the server chimps in our server room slipped on a banana peel and reset the competition.
Oddly enough, many of the top teams from before the reset have risen close to the top of the heap again. That's good news, data loss notwithstanding. We'll make sure it never happens again, so here are your standings for this week:

Players can choose one of 8 demigods, each with their own unique play style and abilities, and throw them into an epic battle where they must turn the tides.
While there are currently eight demigods to choose from, Gas Powered Games has stated that it plans on ...

Two interesting gaming tidbits from the iPhone OS preview event: In-game DLC and peer to peer multiplayer support over BlueTooth will arrive with the update due this summer.
The DLC feature allows iPhone developers to access iPhone OS prompts, letting you buy items or clothing. In the example given below from Engadget, the iPhone game Livefire shows off its ability to sell you a rocket launcher for $.99.
Whether or not the in-game DLC will sell is up to the market, but don't discount it just yet. While many hardcore gamers balk at the concept of DLC, the micropayment model of the ...

Solid Snake opens a movie studio
Okay, so it's not Solid Snake, but it is David Hayter, the voice and real life doppelganger of Solid Snake. Close enough.
Variety reports that Hayter (who co-wrote the X-Men and Watchmen movies, by the way) just founded Dark Hero Studios along with producer Benedict Carver. The studio focuses on action, horror, and sci-fi entertainment across several different mediums: Games, movies, and TV.
According to Carver, "David will create, write and direct movies and TV series for the company, but he'll also be a magnet for other writers and directors to work with us."

Release Roundup: March 8
This week's Release Roundup brings us one of the most anticipated games of the year, Resident Evil 5.
RE5 is the seventh game in the Resident Evil series and picks up after Leon's adventures in RE4. Players will take control of Chris Redfield (or Sheva Alomar in co-op) as he travels to the made-up country of Kijuju in Africa to investigate/combat the spread of the parasites from RE4.
