Microsoft, Double Helix break 16-year combo of no sequels
Killer Instinct was one of the bigger surprises to come from Microsoft's E3 press conference, and information is beginning to trickle in about how the long-absent fighting game will shape up when it is released alongside the Xbox One in November.
It’s a shame these visuals were squandered on such a shallow game.
Given the touch screen of the 3DS, it’s no surprise that iOS game, Samurai Sword Destiny has made its way to the Nintendo eShop. What’s also unsurprising is just how shallow the experience is, given Destiny’s original home. With a combination of two level types, players will find themselves either slashing arrows and avoiding boulders during forced progression, or dispatching a variety of foes by continuously slashing back and forth until all enemies are defeated. It’s a mindless timewaster that doesn’t command its price.
A demonstration of some of the combos for the 3rd DLC character, Mr. Karate. Available through PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE Marketplace, respectively for $4.99 and 400 MS points on January 10, 2012.
