X-Blades Hands On @ PAX '08
by Michael Camacho [ Thursday, 4th of September 2008 - 09:38 PM ]
South Peak Interactive was on hand promoting the upcoming hack & slash game, entitled X-Blades.  It’s developed by Gaijin Entertainment & TopWare Interactive, and features a scantily clad main character, named Ayumi.  The basic premise of the game is a button masher with an attractive female protagonist.  I had been looking forward to this game for a long time, so I will share my impressions of the game with you.   It was a very easy game to pick up and just jumping in and having fun killing the monsters.

Left 4 Dead Hands On
by Andy [ Wednesday, 3rd of September 2008 - 11:48 PM ]
Many great new games are coming out this upcoming holiday season and fortunately for me, I had a chance to play some at this year's Penny Arcade Expo (PAX). One of the must talked about games, Left 4 Dead (L4D), was available to play at Valve's booth. Throughout the whole convention, the L4D booth was packed to the gills with people eager to kill some zombies. You may hate me after I say this, but I got to play it 2 hours in advance of the general public. But don't hate me too much as I wouldn't have been able to play it otherwise. Read More...

Saints Row 2 Hands On @ PAX '08
by Michael Camacho [ Tuesday, 2nd of September 2008 - 01:37 PM ]
After playing the first Saints Row for more hours than I can possibly count, I’ve been extremely excited since the announcement of Saints Row 2 coming in 2008.  After one delay, which has pushed the game back to October 14 2008, I about lost my mind.  But I would not have to wait that long to at least get a test run, and this is where PAX 2008 comes into play.    After a short five minute play through during the media time on Friday, I knew I had to get back and play the full first mission of Saints Row. Sunday, I got to finally get a full session in and take in the experience of Saints Row 2. Read More...

Left 4 Dead Delayed til November 20th
by Andy [ Monday, 25th of August 2008 - 07:15 PM ]
Much anticipated Valve game, Left 4 Dead, has been pushed back until November 20th. At least this is still in time for the holiday season, so you can eat your christmas cookies while blastig zombies away. At least I know I will be! "Left 4 Dead is going to be released on the tenth anniversary of Half-Life, our first game," said Newell. "That will be on November 20th, the third week in November." I can't say this is a huge let down at all, infact, I like that it is being pushed back a bit. Read More...

Mount Up!
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 12th of August 2008 - 01:43 AM ]
Mount & Blade Beta More of a blurb more than news I guess, but I figured I'd let you fans of trying out Betas know about this. Basically, if you like medieval type games, here is the link for Mount & Blade. Oh, and for a bit more, below be ye olde website blurb about the game. "Calradia is a land at war, a land offering great riches and even greater dangers to the adventurers and mercenaries that flock to shed blood on its soil. With unerring courage and a strong sword, an unknown stranger can make a name as a warrior. Lead a band of hardened soldiers, become the lord of several towns and castles, and perhaps one day you may wield the power to overthrow kings and crown new ones at your discretion. Read More...

Google or Glados
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 12th of August 2008 - 01:37 AM ]
Google Uses Portal For Programming Competition So we all know that google is a super-computer trying to take over the world, even if there are real humans there working on the machines and systems. At least that is what the beast wants us to believe. Now there is further proof that my tin-foil hat is totally needed for the world. Well somewhat at least. More like, we can watch the best of the best in coding go up for a challenge. Read More...

March Is Going To Be Awesome
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 2nd of August 2008 - 06:13 PM ]
Final Fantasy XIII Demo Yes, you read the above title right. There will be a demo for Square-Enix's new Final Fantasy out early next year. How early? Well it looks like March 9th will be the magical date. At least this is what was announced at a private event at DKΣ3713. On top of all that, there will be new footage for the other games coming out in the series as well. I'm talking FFXIII Versus and FXIII Agito here. There are a few catches though... Read More...

Call of Duty 6 Confirmed
by Andy [ Saturday, 2nd of August 2008 - 07:04 AM ]
Due to be released in 2009, Infinity Ward will do another round in the Call of Duty franchise. What does this mean? This means that COD6 will be amazing in all its glory, so at least if WaW sucks, you can at least look forward to the new installment. Bobby Kotick, CEO, was the one who confirmed that "an all-new Call of Duty" will be released "utilizing our leapfrog studio strategy."So sit back and watch the news of COD6 come rolling onto the internet in the upcoming months. What do you think this new COD title will be? Read More...

They Are Arising
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 28th of July 2008 - 08:19 PM ]
Rise Of The Argonauts First let me thank Mythicgriffon for hooking up this video as well as being there when we did our own little interview with this same guy. He was very knowledgeable about a lot of things and nice enough to entertain us for about an hour or so. No more gilding the lilly though. I brought this up a while back when I first heard about this game from Codemasters. It was so cool to see another of the few games out there that revolve around Greek religion and stories.

More On Dead Space I will apologize now if my next few news articles come straight out of Comic-Con 2008 or tie ins. I was way to busy to keep things up to date while I was there, but I will do my best to get it all out there in my personal Blogs and here as well. That aside... This is some new stuff I caught on this very much hyped game from EA. They had a spectacular booth and panel for this game. With a dude in the full on armor shown in the trailers. Read More...

Two Words: Man Darts
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 16th of July 2008 - 08:37 PM ]
Mad World E3 Trailer I know I talked about this game once before. It was only when there was a teaser for the game, but it looks like there is an even better trailer for the game that was shown at E3 this year. Like the title says, Man Darts! Watch the trailer and you will see what I mean. Now after this trailer, I am even more intrigued by the game. First it looks as blood, if not more, than No More Heroes. Great game. Read More...

Dead Will Be Rising On The Wii
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 16th of July 2008 - 05:14 PM ]
Dead Rising Ports To The Wii Yes, you read that right. Well at least that is what I have been able to gather from a very broken translation of the Japanese magazine Famitsu. So if you were still waffling on buying an XBox to get this game, it will be out on the Wii. Should be good news for some people who will remain nameless, but they are on this site. Hopefully it will do as well as RE4 did when it ported over as well. Go Capcom. Read More...
