Hmm... all I can say is: Wow. I really don't recall Mortal Kombat as being such a huge franchise back in the early-mid 90s - But then I do remember all the capital controversy. So yeah, I suppose it was very well known. Read more

@Nelson: You are a CEC Agent! Read more

I'm thinking the title of the article refers to Bodie (Swayze) surfing on top of a gigantic wave and falling to his death? Read more

So you basically stay stationary and trigger moves. And from what I gather the specials are timed regular punches and kicks etc. as opposed to actually doing a hand-planted spinning drop kick from the ground etc. And there's no grappling? Read more

@EyeR8: I agree. This holiday season (perhaps more than ever) is definitely testing my limits on temptation. However, Castlevania for me takes precedent above most other franchises. Read more

@Archaotic: For me the soundtrack matters a smidgen more. I wasn't all that thrilled by the gameplay music heard in the latest demo from E3 - But after seeing a comment above of the use of a 120 piece orchestra, a choir of 80 singers, and some classic Castlevania themes, I now think I'm sold. Read more

@Archaotic: Well what I mean is have the Arc System Works add their visual flare while updating the classic sprites. In that sense, I'd think it would freshen up the style to work well on console HD. Hard Corps is looking fantastic. Read more

@Archaotic: I agree. What I would have or would like to see is IGA still fronting a traditional metroidvania game, but letting the Arc System Works team working on Hard Corps: Uprising lead the art design. Read more

@Archaotic: Oh it's definitely going to be bought on PS3 by me. I only displayed the 360 link because well, I was just on it. The question now is if the LE edition worth the extra $20. Read more

The LE bundle is up on Gamestop: Read more

@xxXX_Insanities_Birth_XXxx: You mean the classic, Vampyros Lesbos? Read more

Commercial aside, that looks like a fun bundle! I hope it makes it to the States. Furthermore, I wonder if the Guncon will still be compatible with the Time Crisis games. Read more

How is Top Gun compared to After Burner Climax? I was underwhelmed by the video trailer and so far can't see it coming close to being as polished as After Burner (which I enjoy). Of course I could be wrong, and Top Gun rocks. Read more

@wirebrain: Where did I claim to love action movies? Okay look, you guys and/or girls - I'm done. We all have our (personal) opinions, likes and dislikes. That's fine. Please rejoice in your preferred cinematic pursuits and have fun. I have no interest in Scott Pilgrim beyond the game at this point. And no amount of… Read more

@Fernando Jorge: Perhaps it's cliche to say, but that guy demoing had his gameface on. Nothing would deviate his mission. Read more

That is beautiful! Perhaps EA might want to rethink releasing both this and ME2 in the same month. Read more

@Bricked: Well I suppose I'm getting old too. In fact I can tell you probably the exact moment when I started to feel old - It was when I went to see Napoleon Dynamite, and I was the only person not laughing. Except at the part where the guy was trying to sell some indestructible tupperware, tries to prove it's… Read more

@wirebrain: That's great and all, but it takes more than flashiness to peak my interest. In fact, one reason I chose to view Expendables is because it was less reliant on CG and green screen, yet still visually stimulating. Read more

@heino_forsstrom: Yes, ME. Fine, I admit that I don't remotely want to see Scott Pilgrim vs The World. Nor have I seen (or wanted to see) Shaun of the Dead, Hot fuzz, or Spaced. I am very open-minded to new things, but I know myself very well, and I'm very confident in knowing if I'm going to like something or not.… Read more

I think the first indicator of Scott Pilgrim Bob-ombing (which I noticed) is that it got far less theater showings at my local AMC than Expendables. In fact I think it was half the showings of Expendables on opening day. Read more
