Sony's new handheld doesn't stumble out the door.
The PlayStation Vita was released this past weekend in Japan and the first round of sales figures are starting to come in. While not breaking any records, it looks like Sony’s latest handheld did pretty well in the land of the rising sun.
Zen, the main protagonist, will have to struggle for the choices he makes against those that are in his way.
And no, you can't dress Bruce Wayne up like Santa.
Rocksteady wants you to enjoy the holidays by dropping from the housetops on henchmen skulls in style. They've announced that they'll be making a new suit available for the World's Greatest Detective based on Batman Inc. Here's a quote from their announcement on the official website:
In Final Fantasy XII-2 players will have the ability to recruit the monsters they fought against, and then use them in battle against other monsters.
Perhaps the second time is the charm.
It’s been a bit of a rough road for the Final Fantasy series in the past few years. There was a four year gap between Final Fantasy XII and XIII due to a protracted development cycle, and we’re still waiting to get our hands on its companion game, Final Fantasy Versus XIII.
It's apparently a white Christmas in Boletaria.
Last week Atlus announced they would be shifting the world tendency in Demon's Souls to white for the holidays. For the unfamiliar, a pure white tendency means that certain, previously inaccessible locations will be unlocked and the game will be made easier. Keep in mind that all easier means in a Demon's Souls context is that the game won't kick your ass quite as hard as it normally does.
Sora and company's next adventure coming exclusively to the 3DS.
Sure, we knew that Square-Enix was working on a 3DS entry in the popular Kingdom Hearts series in Japan, but any information beyond a few snippets of footage and the suggestion that it would be coming at some point to the west was non-existent at best. Which is why today’s announcement that Kingdom Hearts 3D is indeed coming, and much sooner than many had predicted, is such welcome news.
Another intrusion in a year full of them.
If you are a member of the Square Enix Members club, look for an email from the publisher themselves about a "limited server intrusion." On December 12, a server was compromised and had to be temporarily shut down. This has only affected North America and Japan.
Mr. Grimm has a new look. Check out his backstory in this character trailer for the upcoming Twisted Metal, which drops exclusively on the PlayStation 3 February 14, 2012.
