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!~

A little thought for the fallen henchmen...

Gamin' NEWS! Some more obscure little gems to follow

Everbody's got all their attention to the big Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo future games...
But there's always some more obscure little gems that deserve our attention.
Since I'm always for these kind of "underdogs" in our modern blockbuster era of gaming, let's have a look at two games YOU SHOULD be awaiting!

First off, a little under everybody's radar, cause nobody seems like Hudson Soft anymore these days : (
there's a new nice little game coming to the wii which was until now knew as Lost In Shadow or Tower of Shadow but will finally be called A Shadow's Tale.

It will be released later this year under Konami.
I love the guys at Hudson! Being a big fan of the Bonk and Bomberman series. Those guys know how to make a gameplay fun, original and addictive.



This looks pretty beautiful. And I'm not that afraid of the final product, even knowing that their last disc-based game was Bomberman Act Zero on the Xbox 360. (come on! It was a "next gen" over the top take on Bomberman, which yes kinda looked bad and off, but played as good as the originals!)
A Shadow's Tale will be released only on Wii, and looks amazing!!


Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage from Koei is exactly what you'd expect it to be.

BADASS.



This one will be pretty similar to other past manga adaptations "Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage" on the Dreamcast and "Berserk: Millennium Falcon" on the PS2. That is, modern beat'em all fun gaming experience.
Only this time, with the power of the PS3 and Xbox 360, it will look pretty realistic and gory.


I cannot wait to try either of those two very different games~
That's what we, me and you guys, should aim for, playing different original stuff instead of the ton of identical sequels most developers seem to put out each year!
