Xenoblade developer taking on Sega/Namco Bandai/Capcom crossover
Project X Zone may be one of the most ambitious crossover titles to date. The strategy-RPG-fighter is poised to set iconic characters of major Japanese publishers Capcom, Namco Bandai and Sega against each other in a battle for supremacy. With three behemoths coming together and mixing their IPs in this lovely video game soup, one begins to wonder exactly who would get developer duties on the project. Would it be Capcom? Namco Bandai? Sega?
No, not that Megatron.
For the second year in a row EA has put the Madden cover honors to a bracket styled vote – a concept that sparked some controversy last year when running back Peyton Hillis of the Cleveland Browns won out over the polarizing Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick. This year proved to be less exciting and we expect that there won’t be as much disgruntled grumbling this year as Calvin “Megatron” Johnson has been awarded the cover of Madden NFL 13.
A crazy new strategy-RPG is in the works. Can you say "crossover"?
For a whole legion of fanboys and girls, the fact that the Capcom and Namco team-up strategy game Namco x Capcom never made it to North America was a tragedy. Even though the game was reportedly average at best, the idea of two major Japanese companies mashing all of their franchises into a massive strategy-RPG was a tantalizing thought. Well, those fanboys and girls may have another shot at the crossover insanity, with an extra company thrown into the mix. Enter Project X Zone (the “x” is pronounced “cross” as before), a new strategy-RPG featuring characters from Capcom, Namco Bandai, and Sega. Before your head explodes, consider reading on.
The unlikely crossover will be known by western audiences as Pokemon Conquest.
Back in December, Nintendo and Tecmo Koei revealed one of the oddest crossovers in video game history. Pokemon and Nobunaga's Ambition were to be combined into a unique turn-based strategy game for the DS. Today, Nintendo of America announced plans to bring the unlikely title to western audiences as Pokemon Conquest.
Check out Rob's impressions on February's new map.
Well it’s that time of the month again and the new Modern Warfare 3 Elite DLC is here for February. This month Activision has released one new map – Overwatch. If you haven't already had the chance, be sure to check out my impressions of January's releases.
It's okay, we all thought it was a joke at first too.
When a trailer was released for Pokemon + Nobunaga’s Ambition there were many that may have thought that Nintendo was putting them on, but amazingly enough this pairing of Pokemon and samurai is quite real and a Japanese release date and some gameplay details have bubbled up.

El Presidente would fire the UI designers - if he could find the menu to do it.
I have some amazing memories of construction/simulation heavy games, like Sim City 2000 and Dawn of Discovery. When done right, games in this genre are absolutely captivating. Tropico 4 comes extremely close to hitting the nail on the head, but stumbles in its implementation.
