'Now now Cheshire, the fun's just starting!' That alone could sum up the intro to Bayonetta, an action game which throws you in control of our titular character and resident witch of kicking-arse, Bayonetta. Read this review if you want to become excited about one of the best action games not just so far this year but possibly for the whole of 2010.
As reportd on Kotaku, the deluxe edition of Ryu Ga Gotoku 4 is due to be released with a hip flask included in the package.
The deluxe edition's due to retail at ¥10,290. A bit pricey by anyone's standards but if you're a fan I'm sure you'll accrue the funds in time for the game's release in April. Then you can get drunk in style when Kiryu does!
Afternoon there folks. Having just seen the trailer for the 'official' Tekken live-action film I feel it is my duty to update you all for your own perusal. Check it out and make your own conclusions!:
See which one you prefer. My eyes are cast towards to the fan-made one due to the love of the source material coming through in the trailer.
Also, for your perusal is a compilation video from Youtube of the newest ultras from Super Street Fighter 4 (Warning: the volume's not at a default all the way through the video so don't turn it up to 11 from the start):
Credit and thanks goes out to Youtuberderrace for the video.
Roaming around an interactive environment, sometimes exploring, sometimes fighting, sometimes just soaking up the scenery around you. Shenmue was a game franchise that had these things in abundance and it was a shame that the trilogy was never completed with a 3rd installment in the series. Although the franchise was Yu Suzuki's labour of love, Ryu Ga Gotoku 1 (hereafter RGG) can be seen as an inheritor of the best elements of the former franchise whilst at the same time making the action and fighting intense and wrapping it up in the captivating world of the Japanese yakuza.
In a change to the regular updates, this entry touches upon something that I don't think I've mentioned at any point in my blog's history (although if you read my Street Fighter 4 review you'd probably get the jist from there). Anyone who's remotely played Street Fighter before will be aware that an update to last year's release of SF4 is recieving an update this Spring and more so than the re-releases of SFII in its prime, this is something that DLC alone will not suffice.
So far, we've been shown that the additional characters that will be added to this update will be:
- Juri - Deejay - T. Hawk - Guy - Cody - Adon
Plus, from details and screenshots on the internet we can see that an additional 4 characters are yet to be announced. Rumours circulating the internet suggest that these are new face Hakan (an Indian-style wrestler) and 3 familiar faces returning from Street Fighter: Third Strike (they being Dudley, Ibuki and Makoto). Only time will tell if this is the case or otherwise but fingers crossed that these are the remaining characters to be added to the SSF4 mix!
In the meantime, check out this fellow's Youtube channel for recent video updates from CES where the most recent verion's build of SSF4 was available to play and get excited:
How to classify Siren: Blood Curse. Is it a sequel to Siren 1 & 2? Is it a separate standalone game altogether for the PS3? In a way it is all of these things combined. Read on to find out why...
'Welcome, to the stage of history' says the announcer as you start up the arcade mode of Soul Calibur IV. A sure reminder that you are being welcomed back to another of Namco's long-established fighting game franchises, the Soul Calibur series.
One for the geeks. There, said it. If you're a geek, nerd, sci-fi head, otaku or whatever else fans of subversive culture get called these days, you will be drawn towards NMH. Why? Read on to find out.....
Well I realise that weeks pass between my updates but between work and other things its more of a realise afterwards affair than anything else. Anyway, I will be updating the blog with a review again soon and when I have all my screencaps my reviews will all have images with them as well.
