During an SCEJ press event this afternoon at the Tokyo Game Show, Sony finally announced a release date for Gran Turismo 5. And it’s not in 2009. The game will be out in Japan in March 2010. Which is still months away. A shame, we know, but then, GT fans have been waiting years for…
Well, we now know what that “Resident Evil 5: Director’s Cut” stuff was all about. It’s a re-release of RE5, built to take advantage of Sony’s upcoming motion controller. The game will be out in Spring 2010, and it’s far from the only existing PS3 title to take advantage of the new peripheral. During SCEJ’s…
White Knight Chronicles launched in Japan missing a rather important feature: voice chat. But don’t worry! When the game is released in the US early next year, it’ll have voice chat. The feature was confirmed during a PS3 press conference at the Tokyo Game Show earlier today, along with word that the international release of…
Confirming some sloppy code work from Capcom earlier in the month, it’s been revealed at TGS today that Dead Rising’s Frank West will appear as a playable character in Tatsunoko vs Capcom Ultimate All-Stars.
So Sony’s Keynote address was lacking in info. Boo hoo. Know why? Because there’s a dedicated Sony press conference scheduled to kick off in about 30 minutes. But that’s not all! Up-and-up publishers Level 5, of White Knight, Professor Layton and Ninokuni fame, will be holding a press conference at the exact same time. We’ll…
So the official magazine you can pick up at the Tokyo Game Show not only lists every game on the floor, but some important details on those games. Like, how far they are from completion. Now, note that these are just estimates, no doubt thrown together by publishers and the show’s organisers to give people…
Capcom released a solitary screen for Dead Rising 2 today. Just one! Then again, when it shows a guy in a full-leather riding suit mincing up zombies with antlers on his head, one is all you need.
The Tokyo Game Show is about…well, games! Loads of games. How many games? This many games. This is everything at the show that’s being shown to the public, whether in playable form or just with a trailer or two.
Nintendo announced today that New Super Mario Bros. Wii will be out in the United States this November. November 15 if you want to split hairs. Nintendo also announced that Wii Fit Plus will be out on October 4, in case you didn’t know that already.
Nintendo have just announced a price cut for the Wii in both the US and Japan, putting an end to weeks of speculation. In the US, the cut will take effect on September 27, and as expected will see the console go from $250 to $200. In Japan, the reduction will kick in on October…
Sony’s booth at TGS has a number of big glass display cases. One, however, is hidden. Its contents, a mystery. Whatever could it be? Its contents will obviously be revealed following Sony’s TGS presser. Our bet? Since it’s in the PSP section, it’ll be the “solution” for transferring your UMD games to the PSPgo. That…
Microsoft just sent out a self-congratulatory press release about Project Natal, highlighting the publishers and developers currently toiling away on games for the upcoming motion control system. Those listed are: Activision Blizzard Bethesda Capcom Disney Interactive Electronic Arts Konami MTV Games Namco Bandai Sega Square Enix THQ Ubisoft While some of the larger companies could…
To: Crecente From: Luke Re: Hangin’ In Shibuya, Heading to Roppongi Hills Hangin’ in Shibuya, you say? I take it tower burgers were consumed? They damn well better have been. I’ve had a less pleasant week. I moved into my brand new house over the weekend, in a brand new suburb with brand new 30mb/s…
Rise and shine, dear readers, for today marks the beginning of the first day of the Tokyo Game Show, Japan’s premier industry event and the last major game show of the year. We are there. We will bring news. Yesterday saw EA’s rather disappointing pre-TGS press conference, but today (or later tonight, or even early…
It’s a real suit. As seen on Boing Boing.
The 360 and PS3 versions of Gearbox’s shooter Borderlands are coming along nicely, and are still expected on October 20. But the PC version, well, it’ slipped a little. Because Gearbox are “optimizing the PC version”, a process “which takes a few days longer than expected”, the North American release of the PC version of…
Amazing what happens when you lose track of a series. I last played Settlers…1. Settlers 7, due on PC next year from Blue Byte, looks nothing like it. Makes you wish you could actually play like that, no?
No in-game footage here, sadly, but still, it’s a treat for the eyes. The day when pre-rendered sequences in racing games become indistinguishable from actual footage is drawing very, very near. Click to view More Gran Turismo 5 News & Previews
With the game out this week, you’d think sales of MMO Aion would have dropped off. That maybe it was one of those “get in early” types of games, with sales dying down once it was released. Nope. NCSoft’s MMO is still #1 on both the Steam and Direct2Drive charts, to the point where it…
At a press conference held earlier today in Tokyo, EA took to the stage and revealed that a playable demo for Left 4 Dead 2 will be out next month. It’s dated for October 27, and that’s all that was discussed. Not which platform that was for, not whether it was for pre-order customers or…
