I had a great time being able to try the upcoming Disney title Epic Monkey. I was able to speak with one of the game’s animators, and she gave me the run down of this very stylistic title that is just oozing with cool. Even the cutscenes are amazing and reminiscent of something you see during the credits of a Pixar movie. They have this storyboard look that the developers [...]
Right off the bat, I was not expecting Yakuza 4 to be at E3 at all. Yakuza 3 only came out in March! Let me just say though that Yakuza 4 had to be one of the best demos of the day for me. In the demo, each of the four playable characters (yes, four) got a chance to show their fisticuffs as they battled the scum of the streets [...]
Today has been another exciting day at E3 2010. Today we saw Nintendo and Sony, rivals for over a decade, show off their newest creations. Needless to say, the announcements today were utterly mindblowing, and we even got a special surprise thrown in from Valve! Before you continue, be sure to take a look at yesterday’s overview for Day One of the expo. And now, on to E3 2010 Day [...]
Portal 2 has officially been announced for the PlayStation 3. This announcement came courtesy of a very nervous looking Gabe Newell during Sony’s E3 press conference. “PlayStation 3 is the most open platform of all the current generation consoles and has worked extremely hard to make the platform the most desirable for consumers and developers. As such, we are delighted to announce Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 and believe [...]
Sony’s E3 press conference just wrapped up and there really wasn’t a lot of big announcements to pick and choose from. Until the end of the conference. Sony’s final bid for your time and money was David Jaffe’s Twisted Metal for the PS3.
There were some fantastic announcements during Nintendo’s E3 press conference this year, both announcements of new games, as well as an update on games we already knew about. This post is a quick summary of the games we’re expecting during 2010, which were all shown off during Nintendo’s press conference.
This year at E3, Nintendo was all about the old-school in new ways. We’ve already told you about the triumphant return of both Donkey Kong and Pit, and rounding out the trifecta is Hal Laboratories own Kirby, in a completely new with a completely new look and style of gameplay.
The wait is finally over! We’re finally getting a new Kid Icarus game from the Big N. After 24 years of waiting, rumours and speculation, we can all rest easy as Pit is making his triumphant return on Nintendo’s 3DS.
The upcoming 3DS was obviously shown off during Nintendo’s press conference. After spending around half-an-hour on new Wii games, the focus shifted to the handheld side of things. Reggie Fils-Aimee talked a while about 3D, which has come to dominate entertainment during the past year. But there’s one thing he doesn’t like about 3D: the glasses. They are ugly, and expensive. So the 3DS will provide a full 3D experience, [...]
It’s on like Donkey Kong! Nintendo’s press event at E3 was dominated by several old faces in new costumes. Among those old faces were Donkey Kong, in a new title being helmed by Retro Studios.
