QUAKE 4 It's based on the gorgeously photo-realistic Doom 3 software. It runs on the muscular new Xbox 360 hardware. It features concert-hall-clear audio effects (listen to those tinkly brass shell casings bounce!) and the ultrafast, hyperviolent futuristic military combat that made the Quake franchise a thing of legend, including classic death-match action and some brand-new elements--vehicular combat and squad tactics--thrown in for good measure.

Cee-Lo is collaborating with Dangermouse on an album named “Gnarls Barkley,” due early next year, and Iron Man-lover Ghostface (who drops the best guest verse of the album on “The Mask”) and supervillain Doom have plans for a collaborative project (tentatively titled “Iron Man meets Metalface”) as well. Here’s hoping they drop the gimmicks on future projects, and that Adult Swim fans new to the hip-hop savants assembled here explore more of their extensive back...
