Inversion Will Turn Your Mind Upside-Down

A lot of non-gamers I’ve talked to say that one of the reasons they don’t play is because the rapidly moving camera makes them feel sick. After playing Inversion, a third-person cover-based shooter from Timeshift developer Saber Interactive, I think I understand how they feel. Set in a post-apocalyptic future, aliens have invaded earth, defeating…

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Looks As Beautiful As Rugged Adventuring Can Look

A lot of screenshots you see in this business, especially around this time of year, have been, let’s say, “touched up”. Made to look a little prettier than they will be when the game actually ships. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim doesn’t do pretty. And these new screens for the sprawling RPG show why that’s…

Resident Evil: Revelations is a Frightening, Delightful Experience

This is Resident Evil as I remember it: Eerie, tense, long moments of exploration punctuated by brief, startling encounters.

Paper Mario Is As 2D As The 3DS Could Possibly Be

Rise of Nightmares Will Tie You Up in a Dirty Basement and Stab You in the Eye

You want a mature Kinect title? Sega’s got your mature Kinect title in Rise of Nightmares, featured in this E3 trailer that looks like one of today’s edgier horror films threw up. When I first saw Microsoft’s Kinect in action, my immediate thought was “Finally I can play a game in which I truly feel…

You Are the Hero In Super Mario Bros. Mii

If this looks familiar, that’s because Super Mario Bros. Mii is basically Super Mario Bros. Wii. Only for the Wii U, and instead of controlling lesser Mushroom Kingdom stars, your Mii can pull on some overalls and get to work. Remember, although Nintendo is releasing media for this and has playable demos, it remains just…

Devil May Cry’s E3 Trailer Brings The White Hair

Don’t like the new Dante’s look? You may want to watch this. You know, this still looks nothing like a Devil May Cry game. And as someone who was never really interested in Devil May Cry games before, but likes where this is going, that’s a good thing.

While Nintendo normally doesn’t like to talk numbers when touting a new system’s capabilities, the companies providing those capabilities have no such qualms. Like IBM, who today issued a press release boasting some of the Wii U’s hardware specifications, including the fact the microprocessor serving as “the heart” of the console is a custom 45nm…

Mario Kart 3DS Adds Miis, Flying and…Oh yeah, 3D

If you thought for a second that Nintendo wasn’t going to bring Mario Kart to 3DS, than I guess today is your lucky day. For most of us however, the game’s biggest surprise is the addition of flying and undersea racing. Nintendo has also added Mii support and the standard array of 3DS features; Spot…

Animal Crossing 3DS is a Link to the Past

Are you ready for a radical departure from the Animal Crossing formula for the game’s foray on the Nintendo 3DS? That’s just not going to happen, but here’s a guy dressed as Link.

This is Surely the First of Many Wii U Super Mario Bros. Games

This is New Super Mario Bros. running on the Wii U. As with all of the Wii U software being shown at E3 in Los Angeles this week, it’s Only A Prototype. Surely, though, the people at Nintendo will make some sort of Super Mario Bros. game for the Wii U. And maybe, as in…
