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!~

Looking nice! B)
Can't wait!

Next up is a surprise Lost Planet 3!

Whoaa... I wasn't expecting this one :P
I still have yet to play LP2, but I loved LP1, so I'm all for it.

This one's aimed for mid-2013. It's a return to the snowy planet, with a prequel story taking place before LP1. Exactly what fans were originally expecting from LP2, since everything seemed to point out that the story should focus on the father of the original game's protagonist at some point to explore the early days of the "lost planet".

Developed externally at Spark Unlimited.

Color me intrigued!

And last but not least, it's the return of Capcom's Devil May Cry series, I series, I'll confess, I never tried until now but will probably catch on with the recently released "HD Collection" - with the "rebooted" DmC: Devil May Cry by the talented Ninja Theory studio (Enslaved).

I know fanboys are gonna rage about this one, but this feels pretty mysterious and intriguing. It might actually be quite a fun title!
Gameplay wise it does look great.
The story will either be some meta self-referential parody of the series or something gritty/emo-ysh.

Anyways, something worth keeping an eye on.

And that is all.
I was expecting some info regarding Dead Rising 3 as well, but without luck...

Blog! Lost Planet done! Hooray!

Blog time!
Yay!
Today I finally finished Lost Planet! (the first one) (a videogame on the Xbox 360) (and also available on the PS3) (that's a lot of parentheses)

It only took me 4 years to beat the goshdarn' game! XD


Yeah, I bought it ~4 years ago.
Love it, the atmosphere, the combat, the gameplay, the snowed planet, the giant insectoid monsters.
But then when you reach the end, the game throws out the window all of the gameplay it was based upon and its rules, and then go all the way japanese flying mechas on you....
Hardcore final boss, dude!
So I spent days, litterally days, four years ago trying to beat him...to no success...

Zoom back to ~2 years ago.
I had just bought Bionic Commando on day 1. The modern one.
But before playing it, I decided to finally finish Lost Planet...to no success....
Played hours of it ...And still not able to beat that final boss!!!

Today, I was making some order, having a look back at those modern Capcom games, that if they aren't fighting games, Devil May Cry or Resident Evils pass most of the time overlooked by fanboys and geeks...
Anyway, after playing some Bionic Commando again for fun and thinking about Dark Void, I decided to try a bit of Lost Planet again after all this time.
But I couldn't replay some old (favorite) levels, since it would erase the current checkpoint on the last boss's final form. So I decided to give it a try.
1 hour later...FINALLY!!
BEAT. THIS. GOSHDARN. BOSS!! HOORAY!!

Morality: Difficult games is great, it gives them a fantastic sense of accomplishment once you finally beat the heck out of them.
As frustrating as it is.
*looking at you Ghouls 'n' Ghosts*
(another Capcom game)
(darn, there were a lot of parentheses in this post)
Not as much as in this plathrough Lost Planet!
(You said it buddy!)
BWAHAHAHAHA!!
(BWAHAHAHAHA!! )
