E3 2010 Impression: Civilization V

by Brian Bentley [ Thursday, 24th of June 2010 - 05:08 PM ]

We've all been there. Light creeping over the horizon, you blearily look away from the monitor before you, slowly coming to the realization that many hours have passed – too many. Remorse settles in, but under that, a sense of appreciation for a game that can hold that kind of sway. Sid Meier's Civilization franchise has been at the root of many of those aforementioned nights for people around the globe. The franchise's newest member – Civilization V – was shown at E3 this year. Civilization V is the culmination of two and half years of development by Firaxis Games. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: Final Fantasy XIV

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 24th of June 2010 - 03:04 PM ]

Now here is a title that I was overly excited to get to look at, and that is all I planned on happening this year at E3. Little did I know we would actually get to play hands on this up-and-coming bad-ass "sequel" in the Final Fantasy franchise. Hands-on with two of the major components for an MMO to boot: the character creation and a bit of the combat system. Let me break them down into two sections for you, with pictures. At least screen shots since pictures were not taken too kindly in the sectioned off tent in the Square Enix booth. Read More...

E3 2010 Impressions: Dead Space 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 23rd of June 2010 - 08:51 PM ]

Hidden in the back corner, deep within the confines of the EA booth was a small Church of Unitology. Within the church was a plethora of wooden pews with "hymn" books placed before them. As we were ushered in, the electronic candles dimmed and we were greeted with a short introduction. Pleasantries dispatched, we hopped right into the game play of Dead Space 2. Now from watching the EA and Sony press conferences, you may be thinking that you have already received all the visual goodness Visceral Games had to show for Dead Space 2. Well, you are pretty much correct, at least as far as content is concerned. Read More...

E3 2010 Impression: XCOM

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 23rd of June 2010 - 06:06 PM ]

Idyllic ‘50s America - apple pie, baseball and... aliens? In XCOM by 2K Marin, you seek to remove that third tag, bringing peace to our tiny planet from the threat of alien invasion. The legendary title is back with a new spin on an old story. So, put on your pinstripes and suspenders and get ready for this new first person shooter. The story: you are Special Agent William Carter, head of the FBI’s XCom division - a clandestine organization tasked to locate research and ultimately eliminate the new, unknown force that is seemingly ripping apart America silently from within. As I walked into the demo room at E3, it felt more like stepping back in time with the entire room mocked up as a ‘50s kitchen. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: Saw II: Flesh & Blood

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 23rd of June 2010 - 04:03 PM ]

Yes, Konami is making another video game based on the Saw film franchise. Before you start with your "They're Making Another One?!?" comments, remember it is because most of you continue to pay for the films and games, even though you harp on them. Maybe you do it with hopes of improvement to the franchise or, like me, you just love the mind trips and traps. Who doesn't like some insane traps that make you think "That is F'ed Up!"?

E3 2010 Impression: Spec Ops: The Line

by Binh Nguyen [ Tuesday, 22nd of June 2010 - 08:34 PM ]

At this year's E3 it seem like everyone and their mother had some sort of shooter that will be coming out later this holiday season or sometime in 2011. Yager Productions and 2K games is no exceptions where they showcase Spec Ops: The Line for the first time. If for some odd reason you do not know much about this game then here is a little something about the game. Spec Ops: The Line is a third-person modern military shooter where you choose your own path in the game base on tough and unimaginable choices that you have to make on the field. The field where you have to make those choices, the destroyed city of Dubai. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: Splatterhouse

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 22nd of June 2010 - 01:19 PM ]

Much like God Of War and Naughty Bear, if you have been following anything I have been writing about, Splatterhouse has been one of the other major titles I have been dying to hear more about. I want to see if it is going to be a good retelling of the original story from 1988 or at least worth a pick up if nostalgia isn't playing a factor in your personal debate to give Splatterhouse a chance. So how does this revitalization look? Well, let's say that there is a reason E3 is suppose to be an 18+ show. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: God Of War: Ghost Of Sparta

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 21st of June 2010 - 09:22 PM ]

*Sound Of Pants Getting Moist* … … … … … … … … … … … But Seriously. Since it was announced through a need to Platinum God Of War III, God of War: Ghost of Sparta has been a title on my radar with a HUGE blip. It is God of War game, after all, but it is also a God of War on the PSP again. Not that the first wasn't great, but will a PSP follow up to the superstar God of War III be as good? My fanboyism aside, from what I got to get my hands on in the Sony booth, this will be another winner for the franchise. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: The Legend Of Zelda Skyward Sword

by Brian Bentley [ Monday, 21st of June 2010 - 03:50 PM ]

It started with a rush of excitement from the crowd in the Nokia Theatre on Tuesday morning and proceeded throughout E3. A brand-new Legend of Zelda was coming to the Nintendo Wii. Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is the Wii Motion Plus-based adventure fans have been clamoring for since the little white box’s inception. Not much of the story has been released for Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, but judging by the reaction at the Nintendo Press Conference and how long people were willing to wait in line to experience the brief demo at E3, that is not a concern…yet. All these people needed (myself included) was simply the chance to put the announced one-to-one movements to the test. Read More...

E3 2010 Impression: Nintendo 3DS

by Binh Nguyen [ Sunday, 20th of June 2010 - 10:05 PM ]

Since the first announcement of the Nintendo DS back in 2004 and the many versions that have followed, hearing of a new iteration has many asking: do we really need another DS? In this case, yes we do. At their press conference, Nintendo showcased for the first time their latest new portable device - the Nintendo 3DS. The Nintendo 3DS is a device that can show 3D effects without the need for any special glasses. Wednesday morning I beelined right into the Nintendo booth to get some hands-on with the new device.

E3 2010 Hands-On: Naughty Bear

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 19th of June 2010 - 09:01 PM ]

There is no doubt in anyone's mind that I am extremely excited to play Naughty Bear. Partially to see how many other rules from the book How To Be More Like Hades™ are in the game. Also partially because it looks like it will be a laugh riot to force teddy bears to do unspeakable things to each other. Well at E3 I was able to catch up to 505 Games and take a look at how Naughty Bear's game has progressed, since it does come out in a few weeks. The quick version, it is exactly the game I thought it was going to be and it will be amazing. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: Rock Band 3

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 19th of June 2010 - 04:53 AM ]

This year at E3 had us taking a sneak peek at what was coming to Rock Band 3, including 22 of the promised 80+ songs set planned to be released. We also finally got to see what the new controllers from MadCatz and Fender will look like. But at E3 2010, they had so much more to show, as you hopefully read from Brian's, Binh's and my twitter accounts. If you haven't, or just really want to know what our thoughts are for it, let me break it down DJ Lance Rock style. First, they have completely redesigned the HUD/GUI for the game. Read More...

First off if you haven't seen the 'Hope' cinematic yet, I highly advise that you do. After that I'm going to tell you and show you a little more about some inner workings of the game.

E3: TRON Evolution - Welcome to the Grid

by Corey Dockendorf [ Friday, 18th of June 2010 - 12:52 AM ]

Lightcycles. I get excited just hearing the word. One of the most anticipated movies of 2010, TRON: Legacy, is getting it's own video game (of course). Brought to us by Disney Interactive and developed by Propoganda Games (Turok), TRON: Evolution is tied in closely to the movie and it's storyline, even using the same company that provides the film's CG animations to create the awesome trailer below. We're going to get it all, Lightcycles, disc-based combat, parkour, and some great visual effects. Coming to XBox 360, PC, and PlayStation 3 and scheduled for release this Holiday 2010, just in time for TRON: Legacy to start appearing in theaters. Read More...
