Epic FAIL. Zeta Squad Lives! [Update]


The epic release of Gears of War 3's epic "Raam's Shadow" DLC is having some epic technical issues for it's epic Season Pass owners. I (being one of them) am a little disappointed. As soon as you start the game, it prompts you to go download the epic new content as with previous DLC. Instead of it being free, it's 1200 MS points. Make sure you don't accidently download it! It's probably what Microsoft wants because we all like free money! and that's EPIC!!!! I will update if anything changes!

[Update] Problem corrected!

The Bastion Fun Never Ends

Bastion was one of my favorite XBLA titles this year. Besides the story and the gameplay, this game was blessed by having an amazing narrator. His work didn't stop at Bastion though!

I'M STILL HERE

I haven't in about two months but I'm still here. I've been busy with some awesome stuff that I can't reveal just yet, but during my hiatus I just realized something...


I need to get back to finishing Resonance of Fate.

Ni no Kuni: The Queen of White Sacred Ash Trailer



If this game does not get released in the states (like the DS title), I'm going to be extremely pissed and do something really evil. What's evil you ask? Leaving breadends in the bag for the next person! >:)

Max Anarchy Characters Are Getting More Ridiculous



Meet uh, Durga, a half-man, half-robot, half-cat, whose weapon is a "revolver cannon". That's 10 playable characters if you count the crocodile monster.

Might I Actually Like This One?

So the cover art for the next Dragonball Z Tenkaichi game was recently revealed. 

When Budokai 3 came out, I honestly thought along with most people that it was the best DBZ fighter around. Then Tenkaichi came around. Although it was different I still always found myself going back to Budokai 3. I even preferred Super DBZ over Tenkaichi. If you haven't played Super DBZ on PS2, I recommend picking it up if you're a DBZ fan. It has great gameplay and you can actually customize the character's attacks and appearance. But back to my gripe. Over the past few years, it seems as if more attention has been going towards Tenkaichi-style games rather than Budokai. If anything, Budokai fans were let by Dragonball Z Burst Limit. While the game looked good, it had annoying mechanics. Drama pieces, laggy online, and Vegeta's abusive Final Flash. It's been 3 years and there hasn't been a mention of any sequel. So now I feel like I'm being trolled by these Tenkaichi games. I played Raging Blast and got bored with it quickly. The terrible camera didn't help either. I never gave the sequel a chance besides the demo. I would've actually bought the game until they mentioned that there were no GT characters in this game. It's like paying more for less. Dragonball Z Tenkaichi 3 featured 161 characters and that included GT characters. Why weren't they in Raging Blast 2? One of the game's creators mentioned that they didn't feel the need to feature the GT Saga. I'm not going to shell out a full 60 on something that could've easily been added to this game. All of this can be forgiven though if Dragonball Z ULTIMATE Tenkaichi lives up to it's name. I'm hoping that every character that could possible throw a punch and send someone through a mountain is in this game. I've liked what I've seen so far of the game. I wonder if character creation will really be a feature as well. Also, it seems that when Goku is on the cover by himself, the game is usually good.

Hatsune Miku Project Diva Extend Commercial

Here's a brief (and I mean brief) taste of what you'll be getting into with the latest Miku game on the PSP. The game, originally titled Project Diva 2.5, will feature new songs as well as new modules (costumes). Compatibility to Dreamy Theater 2nd has yet to be mentioned. Project Diva Extend will be out on November 10 this year.

My Favorite Moments of EVO

Alot of crazy shit happened at EVO this year, the biggest fighting game tournament in the world. Besides 8-year old Noah destroying a good bit of the competition, two moments made me jump out of my seat.

Randy Moss Retires


The original cover star of the NFL2K series is calling it quits. The worst part about it for 2K fans? We never got to use him again after 2K5. Thanks for the memories Randy!



This might be the end of Randy's career, but 2K Sports isn't going anywhere. We've already been given the ultimate basketball sim. Just a few more years and real simulated gridiron will return to it's true glory.

Hype Killer

When the first screens came out for this game most people were like eww and wtf. I was too. But you really can't judge this game without seeing a little gameplay........

Project Diva Dreamy Theater 2nd Release Date


We so excited! Or rather I am. I just figured out how to edit songs on the PSP titles and transfer them to the first Dreamy Theater so it's more rewarding. Sega is delivering the game on August 4th for ¥3,900. A little more expensive than the first (¥3000), but I can live with that thanks to the added features. Dreamy theater the 2nd is touting the gameplay tweaks that came along with Project Diva 2nd such as the double notes and held notes. Also, Dreamy Theater 2nd will have 3D support which is awesome for people who have 3D TVs and pointless for people like me (I dont think 3D technology has fully been grasped in the States). Last but not least, if you've downloaded an DLC costumes, they'll appear in the game as well.

A Movie About Video Games That's Actually Worth Seeing



Here's a summary from the official site:

Indie Game: The Movie is a feature documentary about video games, their creators and the craft. The film follows the dramatic journeys of indie game developers as they create their games, and as they release those works, and themselves, to the world.

Indie Game: The Movie is about making video games, but at its core, it’s about the creative process and exposing yourself through your work.
The film tells the emotional story of a two-man team, Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes, as they craft and release their first major game for XBOX, "Super Meat Boy". It follows Phil Fish, the creator of the highly- anticipated game, "Fez", as he shows it for the first time in 4 years at the giant gaming expo, PAX EAST. And, the film tells behind-the-scenes story an independent designer, Jonathan Blow, who made one of highest-rated video games of all-time, "Braid".
Four developers, three games, and one ultimate goal - to express one’s self through a video game.

Saint Seiya Headed to PS3

Saint Seiya Senki, a "cinematic melee action game" (Asura's Wrath-like?), is scheduled to hit the PS3 this Fall. All of these shonen melee games (Naruto, Bleach, Saint Seiya, Fist of the North Star, etc) remind me of Axe body spray for some reason. Weird. I highly doubt this game will land on U.S. soil though unless NIS America would love to do us the honor again ;)

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generation Revealed

Naruto games are getting just as consistent as the other fighters that are out there! This new game features characters new and OLD. Like Pre-time skip old. I'm excited to Darui joining the cast. C? No. But also making their return are Zabuza and Haku. We haven't seen them since the PS2 Ulitmate Ninja games. I hope this game makes some huge improvements from the last besides new characters. BALANCING.


scan credit goes to des of course!

A Message to EA Games



Christian Wright Approved.

What is Bleach: Soul Resurreccion's Online Content?

It's not online multiplayer. It's not DLC (costumes, characters, etc.). It's not Rukia staying in your closet. It's anime. Three whole episodes of Bleach!!!!


Yeah. I know... This is according to Gamestop though and it's also not an exclusive. If anything, I hope we can choose which episodes we want, but I bet it's only the first three. I wouldn't give up hope on DLC yet though. You never know.

Hatsune Miku Has Found a Home in the U.S.


 Popular virtual idol, Hatsune Miku, has finally landed a real home in the U.S. Announced yesterday, Viz Media has acquired product licensing rights. They plan on showing her off at the 2011 Licensing International Expo that's held in Las Vegas on June 14-16th. They'll be located in Booth #2481. I only ask that they please don't use MAN MIKU below.


Best News of the Week (at least for me)

Black Rock Shooter: The Game's opening video was released recently. I'm not a big fan of developers releasing opening videos way before the game's release but I'm a huge BRS fan and the temptation was too grand.

New Gears of War 3 Campaign Trailer



Two things about this trailer. 1. Wasn't as "EPIC" as I thought it was going to be. 2. War Pigs?

New Bleach: Soul Ignition Character Art

The character models look fine but I'm more interested in the environment they'll be battling on. I know alot of people complained about the bland environment in the demo. Also, some anime-based games, so much work is put into the character models and gameplay, that the environment itself is left looking as welcoming as a sheet of notebook paper (DBZ). Check out the official site for more info!

We Shall Have Bleach: Soul Ignition...but

It's going to be called Bleach: Soul Resurrección. And guess who's bring it over here? NIS America. They are slowly but surely becoming my favorite publisher. The fact that they are bring this over is great news itself. But even better is the fact that we get the option of choosing the Japanese voices. Johnny Yong Bosch is an awesome person, but I can't bare to hear his voice anymore. (Nolan North too) They are in nearly every form of media I recently purchased. Whether it be a main character of Random Guy B, they're in there somewhere. Anyways, visit the official site here!



Screenies!

Modern Warfare 3 Teasers...

reveal absolutely nothing, BUT there's one for each country involved in the game's plot. I don't feel like posting all of them because they are all similar. Also, just add a 3 wherever an E is. AM3RICA, FRANC3, G3RMANY, 3NGLAND. I'm so tired of the E to 3 swap. MW3 is taking it too far. I don't mind it in F3AR's case but c'mon. 3NGLAND? It looks silly! In other news, I STILL haven't played Black Ops.

Tekken: Blood Vengeance Trailer



Looks like Namco is taking the Advent Children route. The movie looks like it'll actually be pretty good too. The sad part is that they waited until a crap live action movie was made. But wow. Jin throws the hell out of Kazuya! Why can't I throw people like that in the game?!

Friday, May 6, 2011

Hope

Hatsune Miku has somewhat invaded the U.S. if this commercial is actually airing on TV. Miku should be getting her English voice soon so maybe there's hope that the Project Diva games might actually come out over here!



Also, the shorter the better because the long version of this commercial is pretty darn bad.
