Ninety Nine Nights 2 Packs On The Media Baggage

No Comments 18 March 2010 | Tags: , , ,

Konami just kicked out a whole lot of goodness for this sequel.  Konami is promising a better experience with this go round as well.  If they deliver on this promise, we might see a hack and slash game that is worthy of your insomnia.  Enjoy some movie love and then check out a few stills.  This could be worthy of dusting the 360 off….could be.

No Comments 18 March 2010 |

On Monday, Novell announced a new technology that will bring 360 games to the iPhone and Android platforms. The software is called MonoTouch, and will be able to convert the MS libraries in Xbox games using XNA to both mobile platforms. Interestingly, Microsoft itself only brings games tot eh Windows 7 Phone platform, so this is a boon to developers wanting to go mobile with other more successful, phone devices.

Novell also demonstrated an Indiana Jones game on the iPhone, the same version that Microsoft has shown off on Windows 7 Phone.

An Android version of MonoTouch is in the early stages of development, but the iPhone software should be available soon. XNA 4.0 and the rest of the development kit is already available.

Square Enix Keeps The Cloud Of Wonderment With This NIER Artwork

No Comments 17 March 2010 | Tags: , , , ,

Square Enix has decided to grace us with some pieces of art for NIER.  In some sort of sick twisted loving fashion, they have decided to keep these pretty obscure.  So what do we know about this new RPG from Square Enix?

Well, we know that NIER will be an Action-RPG style game.  NIER will pack some swordplay that would make the Nameless Hero jealous.   This is also going to be a brutal game.  Now if this means we will see some serious gore, or just some badass weapons is yet to be seen.  Most importantly, we will see a new world.  Magic and swords, we are intrigued!

Even better, Square Enix is going to kick out some comics to get that story rolling a bit early.  You will be able to snag these comics from Xbox Live and PSN. DC Comics’ renowned creators and illustrators, including Ricardo Sanchez, Pop Mhan, and Eddie Nuñez, are creating the comics.  You can catch a glimpse of their work in small ditties like Spider-Man, The Flash, Batman: Arkham Asylum, and the DC Universe MMO.  Needless to say these are going to rock some visual/story porn.  The comics will be coming out between now and April 27, 2010.

We are very intrigued by this new title from Square Enix.  Keep it locked here for more info.  Until then, wipe that drool off your face, it’ll short out your keyboard.

Xbox 360 Slim on the Way?

1 Comment 17 March 2010 | Tags: , , ,

rumorsRumors are like UFO sightings, lots of people know lots of people that have seen it, but until you have seen it yourself no one believes you. Much like the mentioning of there being a Blu-Ray drive in the works for the 360, there have been talks before about a “Slim” version of the console being in the pipeline.

These rumors gained a tiny bit more credible recently. Apparently there was a post on a Chinese message board “A9VG” that showed a picture of the possible motherboard that could be going into the rumored Xbox 360 Slim. The picture shows both the CPU and the GPU as one chipset. As always with rumors, they should be taken with a grain of salt. With the aid of Photoshop, and people that know how to use it well, this could be all a load of crap.

Should it be true however, think of what this would do to the PS3 in retail right now. Everyone complains that the 360 is too loud, so would a slimmer version help that? Could it be made for cheaper? Can the power brick get any bigger? We’ll all just have to wait and see, won’t we?

Just Cause 2 Demo Breaks The Internet With Its 2 Million Downloads

No Comments 17 March 2010 | Tags: , , ,

The Just Cause 2 Demo was released just a few mere weeks ago.  As of today, the game demo has been downloaded a staggering 2 million times.  Some porn does not even see these kinds of numbers.

Here are some numbers to show you just how addicting this game is. Player have driven to the moon and back four times; Panau Island has lost almost 30 million people (with approximately 2.5 million going due to headshots, almost a million drivers hurled from hijacked vehicles, and 27,000 Piñata kills); and players have BASE jumped the equivalent of a freefall through the Earth’s core, pole-to-pole, twice.  That is a whole lotta love going on in one little game.

Have you gotten the demo yet?  The game is due out soon and your base jumping skillz are weak.  Get to practicing.
