The Ice King stole garbage? Who does that!?
D3Publisher officially announced today the development of a game based on the Cartoon Network show, Adventure Time. Titled Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd you steal our garbage?!, D3 plans to release both DS and 3DS versions of the game this fall.
Smooth combat is requisite for a brawler in 2012.
From the very first moments of the game, it’s made clear that Bloodforge is heavily inspired by the God of War series. So inspired that developer Climax Entertainment decided to crib a sizeable portion of that experience in order to create the Microsoft Studios published brawler. However, calling it derivative of the Sony series would be giving it too much credit. Copying only the most basic of elements from the popular series, Bloodforge is a one-dimensional game that won’t hold most gamers’ attention.
EA has revealed the existence of new games being developed in the two series.
Fans of the Dead Space and Need for Speed franchises were teased last month - two separate listings were posted by BT Games for new titles in the series. The South African retailer had begun taking pre-orders on both Dead Space 3 and had a listing for Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2, a sequel to the 2005 iteration of the series. Of course, neither game had been announced at that time, but in the most recent financial briefing, EA has revealed that a new title in each franchise is in production.
Giggity.
While Family Guy has tried to take the mantle of most popular animated sitcom from The Simpsons, it has a long way to go to reach the levels of video game releases that Fox’s First Family has achieved. After the critical failure of the 2006 PS2 and Xbox game and the cancellation of a 360/PS3 sequel, there’s been little talk of another digital outing for The Griffins. That has changed with the announcement of Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse.
Taking a page from cell phone companies, the Xbox 360 can be purchased on a contract at select locations.
Microsoft has announced an all new way to obtain an Xbox 360 for a much cheaper up front cost. The 4GB Xbox 360 console with Kinect can now be purchased at participating Microsoft stores for only $99. That is, when you sign up for a 2 year Xbox Live Gold membership at $14.99 a month. The coupon, featured above, can only be used at the 16 Microsoft stores scattered throughout the US.
I’ve been humbled by Fez. It’s clear to me now that I have not seen it all, nor have I played it all. Rather, I feel more confident than ever, thanks to this unique mind-bending puzzle platformer, that it is still possible to send gamers on a journey quite unlike anything else. In a way, Fez is comprised of dozens of contradictions that all seem to work well together somehow; it’s simple yet complicated, ambiguous yet obvious, charming yet sinister, and frustrating yet incredibly satisfying.
The Xbox Live Marketplace seems to leak another.
A listing for South Park: The Game became visible yesterday on the Xbox Live Marketplace thanks to its supposed release date of May 5. However, the listing didn't feature the working title, but instead the name South Park: The Stick of Truth. Complete with correspoding box art, as well as screens that match Obsidian and THQ's latest work, it's likely the two titles are one in the same.
Getting stuck in this darkness will break you down with glimpses of scary hospitals, factories and circuses (oh my).
Closure has been haunting gamers since its release, and it’s easy to see why. A two dimensional, monochromatic platformer almost entirely shrouded in darkness, this game has the ability to teach all of its players how to see the light.
The niche Japanese games publisher will be augmenting the Vita line-up later this year.
XSEED revealed yesterday that two of the games in their pipeline are the latest Ragnarok online game, Ragnarok Odyssey, and Orgarhythm, a rhythm-based RTS title. Both titles are being translated for the PlayStation Vita and both are expected to launch later this year.
"Now I've often said "good news" when sending you on a mission of extreme danger; so when I say this anomaly is dangerous, you can imagine how dangerous I really think it is."
In the year 2018 a massive comet was approaching Earth and, as the world watched, suddenly broke into two pieces and impacted into Baghdad and Tokyo. Before anyone could begin disaster recovery each site was encased in massive energy domes that made any attempt at surveillance and analysis impossible. In order to determine what happened the Fourteenth Platoon is scrambled to investigate. Within minutes of approaching the dome it quickly becomes apparent the Earth has been invaded by aliens. Aliens who are hostile. Aliens who like to build towers.
