Insert train-related joke here.
It's that time again: time for you to summon up the answers to five obscure
Zelda
trivia questions for a chance to win a copy of
Spirit Tracks
and some other neat schwag courtesy of the folks at
Nintendo
.
Just like
last week
, be the first to post all five correct answers in these here comments to win this week's package. Also, contest still open only to residents of the United States. Sorry, international fol... Read Full Story
The one good thing about layoffs is that it sometimes gives people the motivation to get out there and do something great, if only to spite their former employers. OK, that's probably not much of a silver lining, but it appears that a few "affected" guys from last week's deep cuts at

OK, here at the top, let's break down what these lists actually mean. There's still some confusion out there. The top ten lists are purely traffic-based, using numbers I'm pulling out of Google Analytics. That's why games that aren't out yet occasionally appear on those lists, much like

Phantom Hourglass

You'd be surprised how nice God of War II cleans up.
The inclusion of a demo for next year's
God of War III
in Sony's new two-game compilation
God of War Collection

Kratos
has always busted out the exact same chain-whip c... Read Full Story
