They don’t call them “Team Ninja” for nothing. Tecmo’s development unit, Team Ninja, is working on a new Ninja Gaiden game: the previously announced Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor’s Edge. It’s a return to the Ninja Gaiden that fans have been asking for, says Tecmo. It’s a reboot of sorts. The trailer shown today in Tokyo…
Dead or Alive 5 is getting a downloadable version. PS3 version at launch; Xbox 360 ver. hits 3 months after launch.
If I were to keep a list of my top five favourite games of all time in a tattered black book buried in a tin box in my backyard, only one game from the post-GameCube world would be on it. Empire: Total War. The scale, the gunsmoke, the bombast… for a strategy gamer who also…
Japanese Halo fans are pissed. For a decade, the roles of Master Chief and Cortana have been voiced by Atsuki Tani and Akiko Koike, but for Halo 4, the pair have been replaced by Rikiya Koyama and Ayumi Fujimura. Changing the voice of a man with no face is pretty drastic, so you can understand…
Wow. Just…wow. Yaya Han’s Catwoman is great, as we’ve already seen when previously featured, but when paired with that Dark Knight, it just kicks Batman cosplay into a whole new dimension. The giant ears, the texture on the suit, his physique, even the stitching on the front, it’s absolutely perfect If anyone knows who the…
Sharper visuals aren’t the only bonus PC owners can enjoy while playing professional ass-kicker Dark Souls. There’s also the opportunity for an abrupt change in tone. Look at that guy. With his big baby cheeks. You just want to squeeze them. [via Venus Patrol]
What, you didn’t think Sony was going to let a press conference go by without announcing new PlayStation Vita colours, did you? On sale November 15, Sony will be offering Japanese customers the Vita in Cosmic Red and Sapphire Blue. Shame there wasn’t a gold or purple offered, like we saw last year, but there’s…
Earlier this year, a coder “ported” mobile game Angry Birds to the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, running the game via emulation on a PC. Which was cool, but nowhere near as cool as this eBay Auction for a Genesis cartridge supposedly containing the game. Given the game, the system and the timing it would…
Wreck-It-Ralph is about video games, and stars its own original character, but these promo images for the upcoming Disney movie barely feature him at all. Instead, front and centre on this series of theatrical posters are guys like Sonic and, awesomely, M. Bison and Zangief. Exclusive Wreck-It Ralph Posters Feature Video Game Icons [IGN]
Today in Tokyo, Sony showed off its latest gaming hardware. There was a slimmer and smaller version of the PlayStation 3 as well as two new PS Vita colors. The new PlayStation 3 comes in two colors—black and white—while the PS Vita will soon be available in Cosmic Red and Sapphire Blue. Here’s a look—up…
We first saw Puppeteer last month at GamesCom. We’re seeing it again this month at TGS. I don’t know who, exactly, is the one spearheading this drive towards unique and interesting content on the PS3, but whoever it is, I want to buy them a beer. Big gaming consoles need more games this… fresh!
Jessie lives with two Mass Effect nerds, who play the games all the time. Jessie has never played Mass Effect. When asked to name/describe the characters in the series, then, this is what she came up with. The names might be missing for the most part, but yeah, she pretty much nails everything else. SHAPURD…
While missing from Japan and North America’s reveals, the PAL announcement for the new super slim PS3 contains something interesting: there’s a model that doesn’t have a hard drive. Available only in Europe, Hong Kong and Australasia, and replacing the 250GB model available elsewhere, this particular PS3 will instead pack 12GB of flash memory, turning…
Muramasa: The Demon Blade is coming to the Vita. With that screen and those colours, your eyeballs will be in danger.
Hayao Miyazaki isn’t just an animator, a filmmaker, or a director. He’s a cultural institution. Japanese kids grow up on his films. They are part of the country’s zeitgeist. Meeting Miyazaki must be quite an experience, even when you are the biggest game developer in Japan. Make that especially when you are a famed game…
Next month, over 3000 manga will become available for PlayStation Vita owners in Japan, Sony announced today Readers will be able to zoom in using the touchscreen, and flip pages with the shoulder buttons.
Inspired by this? We can only dream it was. Don’t let the first moments of the video above fool you: this isn’t just a PC in a stupid case. That stupid case moves, and chugs steam. Transforming it into something beautiful. You can buy one that moves and one that doesn’t move. The moving one…
Sony just announced at its TGS press conference that PlayStation Plus will also be coming to the Vita, at no extra cost to existing users. It’ll be out in November. The service will work similarly to how it operates on the PS3, with Vita owners able to play free games and get discounts. It’ll cost…
Rumoured for some time now, Sony has announced today at its pre-TGS press conference that it will be releasing a new model of the PlayStation 3. The new model is 25% smaller and 20% lighter than the current PS3 (itself a redesign from the original version), and will come in two flavours: 250GB and 500GB.…
EA runs a competition called Only in Battlefield 3, which looks to collect the year’s best Battlefield 3 videos and see which one is the coolest/most impressive/most insane This year’s ten finalists are up for voting on the game’s site, and yeah, some of them just blow the mind.
