Things appear to be looking up for Nintendo's latest portable.
The Nintendo 3DS may have had a rocky start but it's been gaining back ground since the holiday season. Now Andriasang is reporting that the 3DS has sold more units in December than any other console since Enterbrain started tracking figure numbers back in 1997 in Japan.
Firaxis states the new title is already in the works.
XCom is a franchise that, until two years ago, many assumed was dead and gone. In 2010, however, longtime fans rejoiced at headlines that revealed a new title was in the works. In most cases, though, this excitement only lasted as long as it took to read the article under those headlines, which revealed that this latest entry would actually be a first person shooter instead of an overhead strategy game. Internet outrage soon followed.

Technical issues plagued the broadcast.
UFC 141 was supposed to be the first major broadcast of the new UFC on Xbox app that was released last month. Microsoft, as a promotion, gave away 30,000 coupons so people could watch it for free. However, the event was plagued by technical issues and sporadic broadcasts.
It doesn't suck, but that's not for lack of trying.
Magnacarta 2 is the latest entry in the historically unremarkable Korean RPG franchise. The first appeared on PC, and the second, better known release, called Tears of Blood, was released on the Play Station 2. There have been quite a few changes since its last appearance: it's on a new platform, has a newly overhauled combat system, has a new world and story, and uses the newer, flashier Unreal engine 3 to power its visuals. The one thing that hasn't changed, however, is the fact that the game still remains unremarkable.
Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom will be available for the PlayStation Vita on February 22, 2012.

Myst, one of the most popular PC adventure games from the 1990s, is coming to the Nintendo 3DS. Myst was one of the titles that showed what CD-ROM technology was capable of bringing to video games when it was released in 1993. Hoplite Research, who previously ported the game to the Nintendo DS and PSP, will be handling the port.
The newly re-imagined title comes back in glorious HD and manages to be fun, if uninspired.
The original Goldeneye on the Nintendo 64 should have been just another movie tie-in game. However, with Rare at the helm, it became one of the most important games in video game history. The fast paced gameplay and incredible multiplayer made it one of the best games of 1997. After being a beloved game for 13 years, Activision (now holder of the James Bond license) released a reimagining of the game for the Nintendo Wii. Now that reimagining is available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and the rules are a bit different because of that. Although there are shooters on the Wii, they are absolutely plentiful and then some on the PS3 and 360. So it’s not enough to be a good shooter; you need to be different as well. So does Goldeneye 007 Reloaded stand out from the crowd?
