Arkham Asylum 2 To Be 'Darker' In Tone

by Brian Goodman [ Wednesday, 21st of April 2010 - 04:11 PM ]

Thanks to 1up.com for reporting on a Chicago Comic-Con panel that long time Batman voice Kevin Conroy was speaking at. Conroy has reportedly said that Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 will be "really really dark" and that legendary, iconic villain, Two Face, will be making an appearance. I say awesome. I, like everyone else, loved everything about the first Batman: Arkham Asylum and I feel it speaks really well that an unknown newcomer like Rocksteady Games can rock our worlds with the first good Batman game ever (and a rare piece of quality licensed work). Its nice to see them not only expand deeper into the Batman universe, but also do so with the finely polished third person gameplay the market had not seen in a long while. Lets just hope as much effort goes into adding depth to the gameplay formula that made the first one so great. Read More…

Naughty Bear Is Taking On All Films

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 20th of April 2010 - 09:55 PM ]

First Naughty Bear takes on Aliens with a small rendition of one of the most famous scenes from the franchise. Next Naughty Bear takes on The Blair Witch Project mocking one of the scenes that seems to be made fun of by every parody of that film. So what else could Naughty Bear tackle to keep the film parodies and marketing going? Well how about two of the major big leaguers. Two guys that have had over nine films each. Read More…

Bionic Commando: Rearmed 2 Comin' At You In 2011

by 345 [ Tuesday, 20th of April 2010 - 07:10 PM ]

This is quite possibly the most miraculous announcement coming out of Captivate '10. Sure, there was that other little game that apparently was a big deal, but for me it's all about the return of Rad Spencer and some of the guys from GRIN, albeit under a different studio name. Fat Shark Games will be keeping Rearmed 2 true to the original, though some new things will be thrown into the mix, including jumping and more physics-based puzzles. Simon Viklund, who did the music for Bionic Commando: Rearmed and Final Fight: Double Impact will be returning to do the score as well, which is very exciting to hear. The one thing that is unclear at this point is whether or not the coop will be online or not, as the original was purely local coop play. Read More…

Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Fate Of Two Worlds

by Kevin [ Tuesday, 20th of April 2010 - 05:06 PM ]

At first I thought this was a joke. A very clever and well constructed joke. This is one of those instances where I am incredibly pleased to report that this is no joke. The third game in the combo-laden fighting game series, Marvel vs Capcom, is coming to PlayStation 3 and the XBox 360 in 2011. The game, which is already said to feature Wolverine, Spider-Man, The Hulk, Magneto, Storm (and from the looks of the trailer, Ryu, Morrigan, and Chris Redfield), seems to draw an aritstic style closer to the most recent iteration of the Street Fighter series. Some art from a teaser poster also seems to reveal a few other characters. Now, the battle between Wolverine and Ryu is more than enough to get my attention, especially considering the art aesthetic of the game. Read More…

Ubisoft 'Going Green' Wtih Shaun White

by Brian Goodman [ Tuesday, 20th of April 2010 - 02:59 PM ]

So thanks to Joystiq for pointing out that Ubisoft will no longer be including printed, physical manifestations of user manuals with their games starting with the recently announced "Shaun White Snowboarding" title. This is done under the guise of "going green". I am glad that Ubisoft has made such a great and undying commitment to preserving our beautiful Earth by not spending money (which in America is also green, ironically) on printing user manuals. Guys I appreciate the sentiment but call a spade a spade. If you need a little better profit margin then just say so. Read More…

Splatterhouse Might Seem A Little Too Artsy

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 19th of April 2010 - 11:17 PM ]

In the last few days there has been some talk on video games having the capability of being art. If this medium of interactive media can truly be in the same class as music and film. A load of rubbish if you start reading into what the "experts" have to say on the matter. They know who they are and they most like are to hoity toity to even read our site. To the claims though I submit this new piece of work for consideration. The clip being the new trailer for Splatterhouse. Read More…

Alan Wake Developer 'Disappointed' By The Media

by Brian Goodman [ Monday, 19th of April 2010 - 09:15 PM ]

The managing director of Remedy Games, Matias Myllyrine has reportedly tweeted today that he is disappointed that gameplay footage of Alan Wake has been leaked. To quote, "Game journalism is not about playing a game in ten minute segments and posting random quality videos on the net. Disappointed." Okay here is why he's full of it and also why Alan Wake will suck. You may or may not have read yesterday my feelings about the necessity of a delicate balance between business and art in games. The reality is that video games are a product. Read More…

Could We Be MMOing It In Rapture Soon?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 19th of April 2010 - 03:22 PM ]

This is still just a rumor and based of sources from Destructoid. I'm not one to post a bunch of rumors. I hate when they are good ones and then they end up being false or a joke started to get views. I really hate it. But this is a rumor that I think most of the fans of 2K Games would go ballistic over if it was made to be a joke or for publicity. It's also one that I am sure that any fan of BioShock would love to be true. If you could not deduce by now, the rumor is BioShock: The MMO. Read More…

Brian G's First Ever Ramblings

by Brian Goodman [ Sunday, 18th of April 2010 - 03:03 PM ]

So first off I'm Brian and new to Aggrogamer.com (and also Pwned.com My user name is GooseyB please friend me so I'm not too lonely!). Aside from video game blogging I also play in this band. You may or may not have noticed my first few articles posted this week. I am a video game news junkie and very opinionated. I may like studying the industry and culture surrounding video games almost as much as I like settling in with a new nerdy PC strategy title and a bottle of whiskey (almost). I do enjoy a lot of mainstream titles and also spend plenty of time on my XBox 360. Read More…

Name An A.I. After Yourself In Fat Princess

by Binh Nguyen [ Saturday, 17th of April 2010 - 12:55 AM ]

Ever wonder what it would be like to have your own character in a video game? Well wonder no more as Atomic Operations has announced a Fat Princess Biggest Fan Contest. They are looking for the King or Queen of Fat Princess. Someone who has ruled the rankings, has directed some of the weirdest winnings and who also loves cake more than the Princess herself. If you have all of those qualities than you could be the next A.I. Read More…

Now We Get A bit On The Naughty Bear Story

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 16th of April 2010 - 09:28 PM ]

Finally 505 Games has stopped with the ripping off of the book "How To Be More Like Hades" and have given us what we have been waiting for. At least a little bit. That's right, here is some game footage as well as another or the Nightmare videos that 505 Games first started using to show off Naughty Bear. It took them long enough and only one small threat of copyright infringement from me. I joke. Read More…

Iron Man 2: Beneath The Armor

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 16th of April 2010 - 07:18 PM ]

Here we go with another film based game due out here soon. A few weeks from now soon at that. Not to mention one of the larger titles coming out this year for true uber geeks. Suck it sparklers. In any instance, I was able to join up on a conference call with Dean Martinetti, the game’s producer, and Mike McHale, the game's Development Director. Where we got to throw out our questions about the game as well as try to gauge on why we or anyone should pick up another film based game. Especially since the last one in this franchise was such a piss-poor adaptation. Read More…

Infinity Ward Keeps Melting Down

by Brian Goodman [ Friday, 16th of April 2010 - 05:17 PM ]

You can not follow game industry news and not have noticed the countless reports of the drama currently going on between publishing giant Activision and successful Call Of Duty developer Infinity Ward. Even legitimate news sources have covered the huge lawsuit frenzy that has been going on. Today, industry analysts have suggested that as many as 20 more Infinity Ward Employees are projected to no longer be employed by the company in a month's time (source Gamespot). Even though strong sales of the Modern Warfare 2 map pack DLC suggest a short term financial positive for Activision, the stock has continued to go down. I may not be a business tycoon or an expert economist, but I do know this Activision. Read More…

Naughty Bear Makes Bear Cakes

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 16th of April 2010 - 03:10 PM ]

Wow, 505 Games is really trying to throw out these Naughty Bear clips like there is no tomorrow. Like they are truly trying to rewrite the book of "How To Be More Like Hades™" hard core. First with the rip off of Rule #324 and now with Rule #56, Always eat or trick others into eating the corpse left behind victims. It's the perfect crime. Don't believe me. Read More…
