As you might imagine, the vast majority of the “heat” that the newest trailer for NBA Jam brings with it is through the various players running up and down the court fully ablaze (it certainly doesn’t hurt when the screen catches fire as well). Don’t get us wrong — it’s full of gameplay that puts us right back on the couch in 1994, trying to desperately remember the code so that we can play as our favorite US president. That said, the announcer probably says “Kaboom!” four or five times

Newest NBA Jam trailer brings plenty of extra heat

In an interview with Joystiq during the 2010 Game Developers Conference, OnLive president and CEO Steve Perlman said he’d prefer not to sell any kind of hardware for his company’s upcoming streaming game service. “The fact that we have to sell a piece of hardware for the TV, if you will, takes us out of our core business.” While OnLive will launch as a computer application on PC and Mac this summer , the company is also currently beta testing the OnLive Micro-console for use on televisions. “We think the Micro-console is a cool thing, but we’d rather not have any hardware at all,” Perlman said.

This month, it’s finally good to be a Mac-based gamer. In addition to the reveal that Valve will be moving Steam (and the Source Engine) over to Apple’s OS, we discovered this morning that Blizzard is hard at work on a StarCraft 2 beta client for Mac. According to recent Twitter Q&A with the game’s devs ( catalogued here ), the studio is “currently working on a Mac version of the beta and hope to release it sometime in April.” Unfortunately, it seems that if you didn’t register many moons ago, you still might not be eligible for inclusion, as the developers also reveal that “We have no plans to make an open beta at this time.” Considering the game is still planned for release in the first half of this year, though, it would seem that even without a beta invite you’ll be playing the game fairly soon

The latest trailer for EA’s upcoming reboot of the Medal of Honor series, which debuted this week on GTTV , really goes out of its way to explain exactly the kind of gentlemen you’ll be piloting this summer . These guys are Tier One Operators — “experts in the application of violence” — which might explain why some guy who seems to just be hanging out gets totally messed up without much of a reason. Aside from a repeat performance of the “kick dude in chair out of window who’s actually booby-trapped with explosives,” we’re given a bit of a hint at what to expect from the game.
