We all know "Guitar Hero" is an awesome game. But at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if you can play "Through the Fire and the Flames" on Expert -- if you pick up a real guitar, you’re lost.
On the other hand, "Master of Illusion" for the Nintendo DS will teach you a real-life skill... Magic! With the new Touch Generation title, you are doing real magic with real cards. MTV Multiplayer's Gerald Flannory took a short break from playing "Super Mario Galaxy" to see how one can become a "Master of Illusion," and in the process he dazzles co-worker Tracey John with his newly acquired talents.
Desperate to take a break from reporting news about the Nintendo Media Summit, Multiplayer brings you two "Rock Band" posts back-to-back today. The focus is: drumming
For those about to rock, we school you.
With "Rock Band" coming out soon it's got a lot of gamers thinking about storage solutions. Where am I going to fit the drum kit? How compact does it get? How quickly can I get a last minute jam session started? Do I have the mental capacity to put this thing together?Well, Multiplayer is here to set you mind at ease with this video demonstration of the disassembly and assembly of the "Rock Band" drum kit. (Kinda like
our "Guitar Hero" thing, remember?)
Eiji Aonuma, long-time producer of Nintendo's "Zelda" series recently sat down with us to explain what next week's upcoming DS title "The Legend Of Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass" is all about. He describes the new game as an unintentional remake of the first "Zelda" from the NES. Check out the video interview. And, hey, would anyone like to see an intentional remake of that first Link adventure?
From that last comment, it sure sounds like Aonuma's got some interest in non-"Zelda" projects. Should Nintendo set him loose on some games that don't feature Link?
The game industry gave us “Lego Star Wars,” and will soon give us “Lego Batman” and “Lego Indiana Jones.” But what about “Lego Halo”? To celebrate the release of "Halo 3" we got Lego artist Nathan Sawaya to recreate Master Chief brick by brick. See how he does it…
