#E3 NEWS! 2nd day recap part 1
Time for a bunch more news and trailers regarding upcoming games!
First up, some actual footage of that ZombiU I posted about yesterday.
The gameplay is looking pretty neat!
It does really looks like a nice mix between Dead Island and Dead Rising, like I wrote yesterday.
And looking quite nice, to boot!
~
It seems the WiiU will be getting mostly late recycled titles. Assasssin's Creed 3, Mass Effect 3 (only 3s? no ME1 or 2?).
I dunno why but I don't imagine a new audience getting the same game later on. I'm pretty sure 99% of people buying ME3 for Wii u will already have play through it = ME fans buying yet another release.
Specially since it's the last part of the story without both ME1 & 2...
Anyway amongst these is a re-re-release of Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition.
Are people still interested in re-getting this one? Specially with the "Game of the Year: Edition" recently, doesn't everyone already own Batman?
The game seems to be mostly identical, besides some gimmicks that will use the controller-screen of the WiiU.
Beside, you can get the game in bargain bins pretty cheap most everywhere, not counting the cheap steam version for PC!
~
On Capcom's side, check out this kickass trailer of the upcoming Lost Planet 3!
~
Omega Force, the guys who made most of the Dynasty Warriors for Koei, and Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage for Eido, will be making another Hokuto no ken game!
The original game was mindless fun and pretty cool, but didn't it already cover the entire story?
Simply titled Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 it sounds like more of the same kinda fun.
I can imagine this using inspiration from the "expanded universe" other continuations of the story, though I'd prefer to see some original story like that first Berserk game.
~
Speaking of Omega Force, that isn't all they're up to these days!
A One Piece beat 'em all game is also coming up this one published at Namco.
Though it will be a PS3-only title. (awwww... can we hope for an Xbox port either in the US or here in Europe? pwetty please with sugar on top?)
Dubbed One Piece: Pirate Warriors in the US and not Luffy's Rage like I expected, this One Piece: Kaizoku Musou is coming up for November this year.
And here's a new trailer:
Even though I won't be getting this, it does look pretty good.
~
More coming up in a few!~

#E3 NEWS! 1st day recap part 2
E3 2012 continue!
Let's have a look at what Ubi's showed this year!
First, Assassin's Creed!
I'm trying to avoid spoilers and watching too much, but this new Assassin's Creed 3 is shaping up quite nicely!
Here's an all-new CGi trailer:
...and because Ive got so much hype for it, here's another more cinematic and less spoiler-y trailer:
It seems the game will be oustanding!
It will include some new elements such as naval warfare and a complete and realistic weather system. (the weather in past games was more locally and settings generated, to set the mood during the story).
And here's some gameplay just for comparison, to see how more improved and realistic it is now:
And accompanying this title there will be a 2nd Assassin's Creed game, on a portable system. Like with much of the previous titles.
This time something more original though.
Assassin’s Creed III Liberation will be an exclusive episode for the Vita.
But unlike past PSP and DS game it won't feature Altair or Ezio, or bring Connor from the main new episode on a portable adventure.
Instead it will have new story that takes place in New Orleans and stars the series’ first ever female heroine!
How cool is that! I've been hoping to see some more new characters and original protagonists on portable episode. And now I see it will have this kickass lady as main character - something I'd have even preferred in a main episode.
Anyway this looks like 1 definitive good reason to get this console! (like I wrote here in the past, I need at least 5 good reasons to wanna invest in a new system)
Sony already announced a bundle with the game, something that will sell some consoles no doubt!
~
Meanwhile, the new Rayman gets explained and new infos.
Rayman Legends seems to be confirmed for almost all possible systems. (Wii U, PS3, 360, 3DS, Vita, etc.)
But only the Wii U version's been showed, as well as it's Wii U exclusive aspects, such as using the screen-gyroscopic controller, etc.
A new returning character from Rayman 2 named Murphy.
And more!
The game is a direct sequel to Origins and will sport more of the same kind of gorgeous 2D graphics. I'm not a big fan of the new shading. But it looks great nonetheless!
Check this out, there's some mix of 2D and 3D here and there, and it looks fantastic!
~
But WAIT!
That's not all!
Some other ips have returned, such as Sam Fisher!
Splinter Cell Blacklist looks simply amazing!
It seems it will have a new engine, and spotlight the best gameplay elements of the franchise so far.
I hope for more Conviction that Double Agent personally.
Also a core element from the series has been announced integrated into the gameplay now. What could it be...?
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist will be out next year.
It will bring some more Assassins Creed element to the series, with more walls and buildings being climbable!
Welcome to Forth Echelon...
Can't wait to see Sam back in action!
~
And that is not all!
Ubi also announced some new ips unlike many others.
Such as Watch Dogs.
It will be an action thriller that plays like an open-world "superhero" game. With tech and gadgets at your services.
Here's a trailer:
No systems yet.
It does look great though.
~
And if that wasn't enough for ya, there's also a more simpler and mindless fun game, ZombiU for Wii U!
Don't disregard it due to its title though.
Looks legit to me!
It seems this one was built from the remains of Killer Freaks from Outer Space, Ubisoft's former Wii U horror exclusive -shown at E3 last year - which has been canned and recycled it seems.
This could well be a nice surprise for next year!
It looks like a Dead Island meet Dead Rising mix. And it is being developed at Ubi Montpellier!
~
And that is all for this post!

#Gaming News! new Lollipop Chainsaw trailer!!
And a silly cosplay-wearing humorous one!
James Gunn-style!
"Dirty cheerleader? Clean her up, with Zom-Be-Gone!"
You really feel the James Gunn-aspect of the game in this video :P
This new epic Grasshopper Manufacture is expected soon on PS3 & Xbox 360!
Mmmmh.. She does really look the part, our zombie slashing cheerleader heroine, Juliet is played here by Jessica Nigri.
And I personally don't mind the silly tone/acting here, it does suit the tone of the game :P

Gamin' NEWS! The Walking Dead launch trailer
Here's a new trailer Telltale Games just released for their upcoming Adventure adaptation of The Walking Dead:
Love the tone and visuals.
It's looking pretty sharp and good - Telltale game or not.
Alright, and I'm glad to heard Kirkman will be involved in this!

Gamin' NEWS! some Walking Dead screenshots
Telltale Games released some info and new screens of their upcoming new adventure game based on (yet another) franchise, Walking Dead!
Unlike the live TV show, it won't be another adaptation of the comics but rather some original story taking place in the same fictional universe.
With ex-LucasArt Dave Grossman out of Telltale now, it's Jake Rodkin and Sean Vanaman that will produce this new upcoming series.
Here's some pics:
The game is already looking like it will sport the best graphics of all Telltale productions so far. (though I still have a soft spot for Tales of Monkey Island mix of well done design and cartoon aesthetics)
Though I'm already fearing Telltale's typical sloppy animations from that first pic above. (where their problems really are, and not the graphics/visual)
It will be out on almost all systems in mid-2012.
(PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Max and Wii)
Unlike the live TV show, it won't be another adaptation of the comics but rather some original story taking place in the same fictional universe.
“Collaborating with Telltale on The Walking Dead continues to be a fantastic process. They understand the world and the characters that I created and what it takes to make a game out of them. What’s really exciting is that they’re telling a new story with new characters, so you’ll get to see the same world Rick Grimes did, but now from a different point of view,” said Robert Kirkman, creator of The Walking Dead. “Playing Dead is going to be an awesome way for fans to learn about the game and how it was made. It makes sense that Telltale are talking to people in this unique way because The Walking Dead is going to be a unique zombie game.”

Drawings - HalloweenMonsterGal Jiang Shi
==Halloween 2011's Monster Gals series!!==
Monster-of-the-day: a Jiang Shi!
Monster-of-the-day: a Jiang Shi!
Today's "monster" is a Jiang Shi.
What you'd translate as a Chinese "hopping" vampire/zombie.
"Jiang shi , sometimes called Chinese vampires by Westerners, are reanimated corpses that hop around, killing living creatures to absorb life essence from their victims. They are said to be created when a person’s soul fails to leave the deceased’s body, due to improper death, suicide, or just wanting to cause trouble. A peculiar feature is their greenish-white furry skin. They are said to have long white hair all over their heads."
I tried to make sort of my own Jiang Shi while incorporating elements from some Jiang Shis I like (mostly Capcom's Hsien Ko/Lei Lei)
Who's gonna be the next creature of the night?!

E3 NEWS! lots MOAR trailers PartVI
And one more (the last?) E3 post for the day!While people have been liking or dissing the new Wii U, my fears have been confirmed...it's not retrocompatible with the Gamecube! (time to replug the GC...)
Now the question is, will we be able to transfer saves/profiles/etc from Wii to Wii U?
Back to the games.
I posted some stuff about Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City yesterday.
Here's the game itself running:
Looking much better than I thought it would!
Not sure I'll get it, but at least it seems decent enough.
And since we're on Resident Evil, here's once again the other one, Resident Evil: Revelations:
Looking much better than, dare I say, the actual Resident Evil 5!
Why couldn't Capcom do that on home systems at first...
And YAY! Hunk is back to be a badass (and a pain in the ass)!
Speaking of Capcom, did you guys check the Devil May Cry reboot?
Too much angst...can't...handle...the angst...GYAAH!!
At least the "special effects" look nice on the street. *positivie comment of the day*
We'll be able to go from "classic Dante in a SF4-ysh visual to Emo-Dante at will!
Capcom made also available trailers for their upcoming fighting titles:
Launch trailer for the re-re-re-re-release of SF4, Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition. (kiddin'! Calm down you SF-nerds!)
And...
The Street Fighter X Tekken Trailer!
Alright!
Though, as much of a SF I am, kinda more waiting for Namco's take on this...
It's kinda funny how Capcom made this video about the SF guys kickin' the heck outta the Tekken guys :P
Let's see something else.
Anarchy Reigns (Max Anarchy in Japan) is being developed for the Xbox 360 and PS3 by PlatinumGames and published by SEGA.
Can't wait for this "Mad World 2"!
Speaking of anarchy, here's the latest entry in this famous fun zombie series:
This Dead Rising 2 - Frank West edition is turning out quite nicely.
Dead Rising 2: Off The Record will be out later this year.
Here's something some people don't know about, have forgotten or may even not expect:
It's a new entry in the XCOM series (similar to the classic Fallout games) which has been reimagined as a 3rd person action western RPG (kinda like the modern recent Fallout entries). Shaping up quite nicely...and very scifi-ysh! Though I can imagine fans having quite a hard time with this evolution...
Here's SEGA latest rail shooter with zombies and monsters to shot down in a creepy setting...which is not an House of the Dead, almost but not really. Rise of Nightmares
After the fright, the bright!
Here's the new Kirby Wii, after checking out yesterday the DS one.
Fun, bright, colorful! A hit already!
And to continue on this theme, here's the latest trailer to Sonic Generations!
*let the haters hate!*
This looks amazing, gorgeous!
Woow!! *in his best Keanu Reeves voice once again*
Do you know the movie Top Gun?
Did you know that since the Nes days they've continued releasing new versions of the game, year after year??
Here's the latest one to date:
It's called Top Gun: Hard Lock and will be out early next year on the "next gen" systems.
Inversion by Saber Interactive. The guys who made the time travelling-gimmicky Time Shift a couple years back.
This time the gimmick's gravity!
And finally, let's close this topic with Q? Entertinment new Child of Eden.
Which is sort of a (spiritual) sequel to Sega's Rez on the Dreamcast:
A gorgeous innovative modern shooter. Playable with Kinect..or not! :)

E3 NEWS! lots MOAR trailers PartII
Here's a bunch of new trailers from some announcement straight from this year's E3 expo :P
(with my own comments and view on all that)
First off, let's start with Ninja Gaiden 3. The first modern NG to be made by the new Team Ninja without its ol' chief Itagaki, and Tecmo.
Looks decent enough so far. Kinda good looking hack & slash game.
And the first one to be uncensored on the PS3 (so far all PS3 NG conversions had been cut on the bloody aspect)
Kinda generic, but I'm sure fans will like this one.
And now, some gameplay footage from Bethesda Softworks & id Software first game under new partnership, RAGE!
Nice, very nice!
Love how iD updated their engine.
Looking deep, beautiful and quite fun. Hope it doesn't get boring or too gimmicky near its second half (of the game).
Meanwhile Peter Molyneux gets creative with his franchise and offers us this interview:
I've never been interested much in this series, but with Fable: The Journey it seems Microsoft Game Studios and Lionhead Studiosare trying to destroy a series with some potential into a generic Kinect kiddie rail shooter... And a poorly inspired one at that :P
And now, the launch trailer for Techland's Dead Island!
A very interesting zombie game that I'd suggest you keep an eye on :P
Not quite "multiplayer random" like L4D (which is good enough for what it is, calm down L4D fans!!).
Not quite "single player sandbox" like the Dead Rising games.
Seems like a good mix of both. And some survival aspects to it (few ammo to manage, scarce health around, etc..)
Microsoft continues to try selling us their Kinect, now with some more actual games
and
licenses!
It's Kinect Star Wars!
It's a bit laggy!
It's probably just a cutscene playing on the background with a guy mimicking/making us think he's actually playing.
Anyway, as much a fan of SW as I am, you'll need to do much better than that to convert me to Kinect. *goes back to playing Master System Star Wars*
Here's the first gameplay video ever of the upcoming rebooted Tomb Raider in the hands of Square Enix. (with Crystal Dynamics still working on the game itself)
Alright this looks lovely, graphically speaking.
But let's be honest.. this isn't Tomb Raider anymore! (and I wasn't that a big fan of this series anyway! apart from all 3 Crystal Dynamics modern games)
It isn't simply a platforming game anymore. But a survival horror. Which makes this game seem even more generic (that's what I say when they force down franchises on different paths..)
Why didn't they call this "Lara Croft and the ..." something-something like the Xbox live spinoff, or simply "Lara Croft".
Ugh...
On HALO's side, Microsoft Game Studios thinks it's time to remember us that the Halo franchise exists...with a remake of the Xbox original in Halo Anniversary!
Was it really necessary? I doubt it...
But this generation seems to have a problem checking past work, just see how many reboots/remakes there is, across any medium!
Specially with the original being not that far graphically (it isn't a PS1 game you know!) and being fully playable on any Xbox 360... (AND it being available on the Xbox live/PC as well...)
At least they said it won't be full price.
But don't worry, if a fully priced new game is what you want...
Here's Halo 4!
The first one not being developed by creator studio Bungie.
What annoys me already (in this gaming market saturated by unoriginal ideas and sequels): It's the dawn of a new trilogy.
Fanboys cry, kids weep, llamas graze.
Here's to change our ideas:
Twisted Pixel's Ms. 'Splosion Man overview trailer!
Fun, looking awesome.
(E3 trailers to be continued....)
