#Blood
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.
Titled "Arcade NEXT", the lineup includes Fable Heroes, Trials Evolution and Minecraft.
Microsoft is following up House Party 2012 and warming up to this year's Summer of Arcade with a new promotion called Arcade NEXT. The promotion will start on April 18, 2012 and will include some "important" Xbox Live Arcade titles. These games will be the first Arcade titles to be eligible for the new Achievement rules.
Coming this Spring as an Xbox Live Arcade Title.
Psst, Tekken team, online modes don't have to be broken.
Tekken 3D Prime Edition broke my heart. Over the past five or six days, I had the opportunity to really get to know Tekken and I've come to understand and enjoy its brand of fighting. Past efforts proved fruitless; but something clicked this time. At its core, Tekken 3D Prime Edition is really just a stripped down port of Tekken 6, complete with the full (enormous) roster unlocked from the get-go. Sounds great, no? Well, it was… until I took it online. Here the ugly monster within sprung free – just like Tekken 6, the online mode is broken; a shot through my love-struck heart.

Blast more zombies with these two light gun shooters.
The House of the Dead series is one of the most iconic light gun series in gaming. Given the numerous pointing peripherals on the market right now, it's no surprise that Sega is breathing new life into the series with a variety of releases, the latest of which are ports to the PlayStation Network of House of the Dead 3 and 4. The two titles will be Move enabled and feature upgraded HD graphics and trophy support.
Just don't ask us when that will be.
At this past E3 Nintendo pulled back the curtains on the Wii U, the company’s first gaming platform capable of producing High Definition graphics. While the controller and muddled presentation of the system took most of the spotlight, Nintendo produced a sizzle reel of 3rd party games that are said to be in development for the new system. One of the more notable games in the reel was Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, a title that should give Nintendo some credentials with the mature gaming audience. While we still don’t know for sure when the game is set to hit shelves, we have it on good authority it will launch alongside the system promoting it.
There's a bloody good time to be had in New Marais.
There has been this perception that Festival of Blood was DLC; that it was some kind of small addition to inFAMOUS 2 which was released earlier this year. It's an easy assumption to make since FoB takes place in New Marais, the New Orleans of InFAMOUS’ fictional world and the setting of Cole’s second adventure. It would only make sense that you would need to have a copy of the game in order to enjoy this expansion, but the lovely folks at Sucker Punch Productions wanted to gift the entire PlayStation 3 community with this gem and as such released it as a stand-alone title.
We all just got trolled.
[UPDATE] Turns out that Hudson won't be making a new entry in the Bloody Roar series after all. This became apparent when a new "screen shot" was released of the game on the same twitter page.
