So if you are not excited about Metal Gear, Get started now! Today Kojima, Konami and Sony head a huge press event for the upcoming Guns of the Patriots. I am usually now one to get on the hype machine but I have the MGS fever after a recent play thur of the Metal Gear Saga. They not only showed Metal Gear Solid 4 in a huge theater, but also included enough little licensing add-ons to make your wallet hurt worse than horse armor. I would have been totally sold on a MGS cell phone if it would have been an Apple 3G iPhone, bummer.
Playstation Day 2008 has gone down this morning or evening if you are in London. There were a few highlight from the event that I think were kinda exciting but no bombshells.
More details on Resistance 2. Now featuring a huge 8 player Co-op and 60 player multi-player! Also they have reported that it is just 6 months from being on a store shelf near you.
First to make quick announcement this could be seen as possible spoilers. So watch at your own risk!
So as not to go into much detail what I have seen above excites me to no end. Post your thought on the above and please censor possible spoilage for everyone who is going into MGS4 clean.
The Devil May Cry 4 demo is going up today for both the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. I have been really interested in trying out the latest Devil May Cry. While I don’t expect it to re-invent the series I do expect a solid action game with a big attitude.
The demo introduces gamers to the gothic-inspired supernatural world of Devil May Cry 4, new protagonist Nero and the awesome power of his Devil Bringer. The demo consists of a sampling of sections from the full game, chosen to showcase Devil May Cry 4’s varied locales, allowing gamers to familiarize themselves with Nero’s unique abilities. Players will receive instruction on the various new actions that the Devil Bringer bestows, such as the ability to slam creatures to the ground, cover great distances in a single bound or even grab enemies while on the ground or in the air and pull them towards Nero to continue an attack combo. The Exceed system allows Nero to “rev up” his sword as if it were a motorcycle throttle and unleash devastating attacks. Players will need to master all these techniques before the end-of-demo showdown with the mighty Berial.
Fully demonstrating the power of the next generation of consoles, the Devil May Cry 4 demo brings to life the coastal city of Fortuna and its surroundings in exquisite detail, such as the port and the snow-capped mountain ranges. Devil May Cry 4 delivers its intense action at a constant 60 frames per second at 720P resolution on HD monitors, ensuring seamless and breathtaking gameplay in stunning high definition.
Well now I am excited! Also now I am thinking that Collectors Edition may be just what I need. Look for more Devil May Cry info over the next couple of weeks.
Knowing that you are not yet tired of the Portal’s ending theme “Still Alive”. Frag Doll, Kitt has decided to do her own rendition of the song using Jam Sessions for the DS. She claims to have no musical talent but she does a decent job and has re-peaked my interest in Jam Sessions again.
Rock Band is expanding their musical tree of evil with downloadable Black Sabbath covers. The songs are available on Xbox Live and Playstation Network.
Black Sabbath Pack - $5.50:
* N.I.B. ($2 *Cover*)
* Sweet Leaf ($2 *Cover*)
* War Pigs ($2 *Cover*)
Dragon Quest IV selling almost 600k is crazy! I mean it just launch on the 22nd of November in Japan. I wonder how well Lost Odyssey will do in Japan when it gets release on the 6th of December.
Being a Deus Ex nut this actually caught me off guard. It was previously announced but I never though anything would actually come of it. Now here is hoping that they can do it without Warren Spector.
Well I have finally found what I need to get my friend for Christmas, Rock Band, Guitar Hero III and Santa’s helper.
You know you are a gaming addict when the first thing you think of is “she is crushing the box! So if you are in the market to get your friend or love one Rock Band and Guitar Hero for PS3, why not get it hand delivered by a model on Christmas.
Wow, there seems to be a lot of thing being undress for you viewing pleasure today. Here is a new Dual Shock 3 that is sporting both the SIXAXIS movement system and the Dual Shock 2 rumble that is so last gen. I wonder when we will be getting the Dual Shock 3 in North America.
