    South Park Going Mobile

    THQ has bought the rights to bring South Park to the cell phone. The company is working on five games, wallpapers, ring tones, screen savers and even short clips. The first game will be South Park Sports Day, due out next month. Instead of going with the tried and true method of slapping new graphics on a crappy old game, Sports Day will be uniquely offensive. The second game in the works is Save Kenny, where you'll have to dodge death. Screw the games, I can't wait for the ring tones: I'm not fat, I just haven't grown into my body yet you skinny bitch.

    Wet T-Shirt: The Advergame


    I'm not sure whether to classify this as an advergame or just straight-up softcore porn. Shirt City has a fun little flash game on their site called Wet Shirt. The object of the game is to shoot images of hot T-shirt clad women with a water gun. Think of it as Hogan's Alley but with more hot women and a water gun. The levels are in wet t-shirt appropriate environs, like an office, a night club and someone's swank high rise loft. Each time you beat a level you're rewarded with a brief video of a doused tart prancing around in a white, wet T-shirt. Beat the game and you get a coupon, sadly it's only for the T-shirt. More »

    Sneaky Games You Can Play at Work

    Game designers are coming out with some clever ways to allow you to screw off at work. Boss screens have been around forever, and recently some games have come with an option to quickly shrink the window without stopping the game. The latest innovation in time-waster technology are games that actually play in your Windows' task bar. CCR has designed a card game that actually displays cards as task bar and shortcut icons at the bottom of your screen so you can play without having to worry about being caught. All we need now is a way to display Kotaku posts as work related emails. More »

    Xbox 360 Unveiled in March?


    Not bothering to quote anyone or even think up some lame sourcing, Spong is guesstimating that the Xbox 360 will be unveiled in March instead of May. Spong decided the early launch was happening after being told by two sources that an Xbox 2 conference slated for March. But what really sealed the deal for Spong is that Msoft, when contacted about the rumor, said no comment instead of saying they don't comment on rumors. Well then it's gotta be true. More »
