I could’ve predicted to you two months ago that this thing was going to be a sensation.
I could’ve and should’ve. I had the headline at least written, but then I got lazy and then I didn’t write anything. Then I played the game.
Devil May Cry 5.
Welcome to Dragon’s Dogma! In this demo, you
Thank you for playing the Dragon’s Dogma demo.
To pick up on Mat C’s 2011: A Vintage Year For Zombies, Capcom have today released the Resident Evil: 15th Anniversary Trailer. Queue awesome/cringe worthy voice over, and a slide show of the sexed up Resident Evil collection. Resident Evil Revelations in particular looks great, while the sneak preview of Resident Evil Racoon City is just enough to wet the appetite. I’m not sure I’ve been scared of a Resident Evil game since the first, though… …
Well folks, it looks like somebody at Capcom finally woke up and decided to leverage the Resident Evil brand in a way that doesn’t suck decomposing donkey dongs. The series that gave birth to (and then started eating) the survival horror genre celebrated its fifteenth anniversary this past week, and to celebrate Capcom have opened the doors to a whole mansion full of undead news. I guess Resident Evil games are like London buses. You wait two years for one …
Review by Mat C Marvel vs Capcom 3 Developer Capcom Publisher Capcom Released February 15 (NA), February 17 (JP), February 18 (EU) 2011 Available for PlayStation 3 (version reviewed), Xbox 360 Time Played Long enough to acquire thumb blisters. Verdict: 4/5 Thumbs Up “As something of a novice in the fighting genre, I found the game’s immediate accessibility and accommodating attitude to button bashers a welcome introduction. Once you learn how the game works however, there’s also a deeply engaging …
Shame on me. I finally succumbed to purchasing my first Team Fortress 2 item several weeks ago. I justified the transaction by wanting to pad out my Steam wallet with £10 so I could buy A.I. War, while still having enough change left to get my grubby mitts on a vanity item of my choosing. Having sunk hundreds of hours into TF2, absorbing its free content like a sponge in water, I told myself it’s …
Mat and I took part in yet another lengthy email exchange today, discussing a Japanese gaming industry that has struggled to make a global impact in recent years, while undergoing something of an identity crisis. What follows are our collaborative thoughts on the matter…
Need I say more? Capcom’s newest Nintendo DS entry in the Ace Attorney series – Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth – is scheduled for a late May 2009 Japanese release. Unlike the previous Phoenix Wright games, Gyakuten Kenji is not releasing with the dual Japanese/English languages so importing is not an option – unless you’re well versed in Japanese. I knew I should have started on My Japanese Coach before now. As soon as we …
So, I played the demo version of Flock! on XBLA a few days ago. Can I just say how freakin’ cute this game is? Fluffy cotton wool sheep squeaking as you herd them, tall grass that isn’t really grass at all but long pieces of yarn and a landscape that’s created from quilted fabric. I don’t think there are words to describe how cute it all is. It’s enough to make you want to cuddle …
Ever wonder what made those crop circles you read about in the news? Capcom’s upcoming title, Flock!, may just have the answer. The Flock! universe is inhabited entirely by stuffed toys living in a quilted world. Players will control an other-worldly UFO sent to this comfy world to herd the animals onto a Mothership for purposes… of an undetermined nature. I’m not sure I want to know why these aliens require the plushies. Maybe they …
Word of a trailer floating around the interwebs piqued interest last week, and Capcom yesterday officially acknowledged that a sequel to its mega-hit Dead Rising is in fact in development. Looks like this one takes place in Las Vegas Fortune City, and it’s in development now for 360, PC and PS3. Most interesting to me is that it’s being developed largely by a western studio – Blue Castle Games. There was a distinct sense of …
