Rage, the upcoming post-apocalyptic shooter by id Software, has been delayed. According to the updated website, the game will now be available October 4th in the US and October 7th in Europe, which is a few weeks later than originally announced.

No reasons for this have been given as of yet, but since it’s not a huge delay when compared to the total development time so far, we probably won’t have to worry too much. That is, unless one of the megatextures has gone missing and now the team has to texture half the game all over again.

In celebration of Fathers day, the nice people at Radical who are working on Prototype 2 sent out Fathers Day cards. Prototype 2 is the sequel to the first game which featured Alex Mercer, a mass murderer of civilians, military personnel, and slaughterer of the infected.

To celebrate your Fathers ability to spawn offspring, they made this nice little card that you can horrify and alienate your male parent with.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY DAD! Here’s an incredibly screwed up image you won’t understand.

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP TALKING TO JIMMY FALLON. Kevin O’Leary and Johan Dohl demoed the “war shooter” (god damn it Jimmy Fallon) on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Below you can see the game running on a PlayStation 3, but the best experience will of course be on the PC. Excuse me a second.

SHUT UP FALLON. SHUT …… UPPPPPPPPP.

Sorry. The worst part is he’s doing this all week.

The demo showed some action on the streets, destructible environments, and then Fallon grabbed the controller and once again embarrassed himself. Check it out after the jump. I need to sit down and take a nap as my blood pressure is at a dangerously high level.

I haven’t made this public knowledge, but I CANNOT FREAKING WAIT for this new Captain America game. You may not know this about me, but I’m a bit of a comic book geek. I collected up until the Civil War series ended at which time I had 10 long boxes full of the things.

Anyway, the new trailer for the Captain America game that I had the chance to check out at WonderCon just went up, and it is once again getting me excited to get my hands on this game. I hope to heck SEGA hasn’t screwed this one up.

Hit the jump to check out the CG trailer for yourself.

Rey Gutierrez over at the PlayStation blog has saved us all from being forced to watch the new Uncharted 3 footage Jimmy Fallon showed. While at E3 Rey ALSO had the pleasure of interviewing someone from Naughty Dog where they talked about the game, and why they’re showing off water in the third installment.

The team never fails to impress and I think it’s safe to say that Uncharted 3 is looking to blow us away when it is released in November.

Hit the jump to check it out.

If you missed it, Jimmy (Destin hates me) Fallon had the wonderful people from Naughty Dog on his show to once again show us some new Uncharted 3 footage.

If you can tolerate hearing Mr. Fallon’s voice, you’ll be treated to some new footage of a cruise ship level where Nathan Drake does a whole lot of ass kicking. They mention that the beta starts on June 28th right before we get to see some impressive, nay, awe-inspiring water effects.

SHUT UP JIMMY FALLON. JUST SHUT UP. Hit the jump to see the video.

According to THE INTERNET it would seem that Jared is now officially a douche.

The transformation apparently took place during this evenings episode of Hard News, an exclusive show only seen on ScrewAttack.com… and YouTube.

Using scientific evidence of the N14H DOUCHELLO gene, viewers of the episode were able to deduct that the transformation had taken full effect. It can evidently be seen according to obviously unbiased fans like StutteringCraigFanNumber108456456 who said “Jared’s a douche.” That’s some concrete proof right there.

If you need further evidence, be sure to tune in to this evenings episode of the show where he makes fun of the newest Call of Duty map, which destroyed my douche radar tracking device.

Also, Jared sux. Hit the jump for more!

It seems that Valve wants you to take a crack at making a music video for Portal 2. Until midnight on July 15th, (that’s about one month from today) they want you to take the song “Exile Vilify” from The National and use it to create something unique. All you have to do is add the tag PORTAL2NATIONALEXILE to your video for a chance to win, and probably make sure it isn’t completely awful.

If chosen you’ll be showered with prizes including a guitar signed by The National, and a bunch of Portal 2 merch. Check out thinkwithportals.com for more information, and hit the jump to see/hear the song in question.

We’re looking for writers. You heard right, we’re starting up a news division. It’s no secret that I love talking about video game news, but with a full time job I can’t keep our readers up to date alone. Well, that’s where you come in.

We’re looking for someone who can do the following.

- Edit an image in Photoshop.

In this day and age, being able to use Photoshop is just as important as being able to write. All of our images are 630 x 340 and you need to be able to edit the image, and be able to insert said images into a WordPress post.

- Write.

Do you have a basic understanding of the English language, and are you able to link words within a document to your source? Do you have a little bit of flair when writing a news story of the day? Then you should definitely apply!

If you still need some direction, you can see an example entry HERE.

Now, that that’s out of the way, if you think you have the chops to become a volunteer writer here on The Daily DL, send a current news story, and a sample image with the dimensions mentioned to destin@thedailydl.com. Who knows? Your articles could soon be seen popping up right here on a daily basis.

I can’t wait to see what you send my way!
