'Street Fighter 4' Portable? Capcom Would Be Down With It
Posted 2/12/10 1:25 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News
Street Fighter games are no strangers to portable systems. Game Boy got "Street Fighter 2" back in the day, and "Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max" had no qualms about appearing on the PSP. So what are the chances we'll see a "Street Fighter 4" game on the PSP or DS? It's not locked in, but some voices at Capcom would like to see a new portable game happen.
Microsoft's mega media shindig in San Francisco has wrapped, and most of the goods are now being shared with the rest of the world. A new video documentary on "Halo: Reach" seems to be garnering the most attention, since it reveals way more about the game than we knew before. You can download the full ViDoc here.
New 'God of War 3' Trailer Keeps Up With The Awesome
Posted 2/12/10 10:51 am ET by Russ Frushtick in PS3, Video
The latest "God of War 3" trailer, which you can enjoy above, is titled "Vengeance." The title relates to the fact that Kratos, the series' protagonist, can't seem to let the whole murdered-family-and-ruined-life thing go. In "God of War 3" he'll continue his climb to the top of Mount Olympus, but this time he's got the help of the Titans, who are equally pissed off.
Does 'BioShock 2' Have Color Blindness Issues?
Posted 2/12/10 10:32 am ET by Russ Frushtick in Features, PC, PS3, Xbox 360
I'm color blind and I reviewed "BioShock 2." You'll note in the review that I didn't mention having issues with the hacking system, and that's because I didn't. There have been games over the years that, because of palate choices, were nearly impossible to play (the "Puzzle Fighter" series is probably the most glaring), but "BioShock 2," with its color-oriented hacking system, was no problem at all.
With 3-D televisions and Blu-ray players expected to arrive in stores this year, it makes sense that Sony would be toying around with ways to make the PlayStation 3 as big of a player as possible. Leaked peeks at the console's next firmware update indicate that the PS3 could be ahead of the game, if a 3-D video output option turns out to be legit.
Folks that purchased a copy of "Halo 3: ODST" were given access to the "Halo: Reach" beta when it launched. That was some months ago, and people are kinda wondering when that access is going to open up. Well, wonder no more! The gaming public will be enjoying "Halo: Reach" multiplayer action on May 3rd. That's less than three months away! A hair's breath in Master Chief time!
'Alan Wake' Developers Talk 'LOST,' Stephen King And 'Silent Hill'
Posted 2/11/10 4:53 pm ET by Russ Frushtick in Interviews, Xbox 360
I've seen "Alan Wake" at a few preview events over the years, and it's definitely unique. It's clear the developers are trying to take the feel of a network TV thriller and bring it into the game space. Because of their goals, I was curious what the driving inspirations were for the game. Sam Lake, the lead writer of "Alan Wake," talked with me about his specific inspirations for the story.
'World of Warcraft' Pets Get Plushy For The Real World
Posted 2/11/10 3:00 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, PC
Since the "World of Warcraft" pet store opened, Lil’ K.T. and the Pandaren Monk have been a little lonely, but they should be getting some company in the coming weeks from the Wind Rider Cub and Gryphon Hatchling, which Blizzard plans on sending to buyers in the form of plush toys as well.
'BioShock 2' Creative Director On Whether We've Seen The Last Of Rapture
Posted 2/11/10 2:21 pm ET by Russ Frushtick in Interviews, PC, PS3, Xbox 360
Without ruining major plot points in "BioShock 2" (the game did release just two days ago, after all), people are obviously thinking ahead to "BioShock 3" and where it might take place. Does it return to Rapture, or are we moving to another twisted location entirely? Sitting down with Jordan Thomas, the creative director of "BioShock 2," I asked him if they feel like they've finished telling the story of Rapture. Here's what he said:
Activision-Blizzard Sees Need For Console Price Cuts
Posted 2/11/10 12:00 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360
Activision may be excited about Project Natal and Sony's PS3 motion controller, but they want see consoles cut their prices to help out the games industry broadly. Citing poor economic conditions and an evolving market, Activision-Blizzard went on the record this week expressing hope about innovations hitting the market in the coming year, but also pointing a finger of responsibility at console makers.
