After being overshadowed a bit by the release of Diablo 3, Max Payne 3 really gave us a game worth talking about.

If you’re continuing to play the game after the two week’s it’s been out,  I highly recommend you go check out rockstarnetwork.net where a friend of mine writes, for news, reviews, multiplayer happenings and good ol Rockstar love.

In case you missed it, here is the review from Pixels and Popcorn:

Pixels and Popcorn is back for the 87th week in a row. This week we introduce you to the new format of the show. Over the last 20+ months we have been reviewing a movie, a video game and snack on one show that’s posted on Monday. We’re trying to make things a little more streamline for your consumption.

Shorter Episodes. We’ll have two episodes that come out each week. On Tuesdays you can expect to see our movie review and on Thursdays you’ll get our game review. This also means that if we make that sweet spot of a 15 minute or less, we can easily get our shows on YouTube for those of you who like to hang out and share videos through that medium.

The Snack. Hence the name Pixels and Popcorn, popcorn is going to be our main game from now on. We’ll still bring you other snacks when we’ve got something worthy of your time, but we just have to face it, there isn’t an awesome snack coming out every week. So if you see us drinking beer and eating popcorn, just know that it’s our snack of choice for the week.

So if you missed us yesterday on our normal release day. You can catch up with us today.

Here is our movie review for week 87: Marvel’s The Avengers.

The Group from Go Gimbal Go was in the Artist Alley at C2E2 on Saturday April 14th showing off their new game to be released in the XBox Live Indie Arcade coming soon! Matt Lazar (Producer and Designer) and Nick Guida (Gameplay Programmer, Designer, And Artist) came by the Pixeldom booth to chat about their game and the creation process.

Go Gimbal Go is a fast paced, gravity defying race-to-the-finish platformer.

You play as the hero Gimbal, who must dodge deadly traps, make incredible jumps, and travel at blinding speeds to defeat the evil forces that have taken over the once-peaceful Rainbow Island.
