Game News

Christmas is almost here and we have a bunch of hot game news for you to check out here at Kidzworld! This week is full of stuff - from Greenpeace taking on Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony to a Rock Band robbery, MapleStory events, MX vs. ATV Untamed previews, Dragon Ball Z videos and even Iron Man. Check it all out here, and don't forget the list of all the new games that drop this week for every game system from Nintendo DS to Xbox 360, Wii, PS3, PSP and even for your PC!

Greenpeace and the Clash of the Consoles

Recently Greenpeace rated the game companies that make the PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii. Sony scored reasonably at 7.3 out of 10, Microsoft got 2.7, and Nintendo earned a dreadful 0/10! Now Greenpeace has a new Clash of the Consoles video starring Mario, Master Chief and Kratos. The video is horribly cheesy, especially the part where Mario poops out a brown mushroom (ick), but it's worth checking out for some info on how video games are trashing the environment.

Greenpeace is taking on Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony to make them clean up their act!

Seen it? Now head to www.greenpeace.org for a chance to send a message to Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony about how they need to make their consoles cleaner!

Rock Band Robbery!

EA's new party game Rock Band is so much fun that a few criminals decided to rob a delivery truck at gunpoint! They drove up next to the truck, got the driver to stop, then pulled guns on him. They blindfolded him, drove a ways, emptied the truck, then ditched the driver. The thieves got away with 1,000 of the $170 Rock Band games, complete with the mic, drums and both guitar controllers. Cops are already on the case.

"We're glad no one got hurt," said EA spokesperson Bryce Baer. "We hope these guys end up forming a rock band in jail."
