Available now as a DSiWare title on the Nintendo DSi for 800 points, and is also available on the Nintendo 3DS eShop for $7.99.
Zipper Interactive brings solid third person shooting mechanics to a repetitive Vita adventure.
Unit 13 hearkens back to a day when shooters were delivered without an overarching story. Instead, they were comprised of a set of chopped up missions, each with their own specific objective. It's a design that works exceedingly well on the portable Vita platform, allowing you to consume one mission at a time if you're tight for time. Despite its praiseworthy delivery of content, the experience is a bit too homogenous to remain entertaining for more than forty missions. A lackluster online offering and a dubious scoring system only serve to provide further frustrations, bringing down an otherwise solid experience.
Repetition and missed opportunity make Sumioni extremely disappointing.
At face value, it may be easy to mistake Sumioni for a 2D iteration of the Okami series. It has similar sound effects, aesthetics, and settings, as well as the ability to draw on the screen like you do with the celestial brush; even their logos are similar. However, Sumioni doesn’t even come close to matching the merits of Capcom’s sprawling adventure. Instead, Sumioni is a repetitive hack-and-slash that fails to capitalize on its unique design.
Chris Dodd has been accused of bribery for garnering SOPA support.
Many senators and pundits for legislature have heard negative criticism for their stance on the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), however few have earned as much criticism as former senator Chris Dodd. The current president of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) vocally supported SOPA until its demise. Now Chris Dodd has added some comments that may earn himself a prosecution for bribery:
Today, Sony announced that the PlayStation 3 is officially dropping in price across both models.
Earlier today at Gamescom, Sony revealed a $50 price cut for both models of the PlayStation 3, bringing the 160GB slim model down to $250 and the 320GB slim model to $300. In addition to the price cuts, at select retailers across America, Sony is running a limited-time special bundle for $300, which will include the 320GB system, a copy of inFamous 2, and a 30 day PlayStation Plus trial. The price drop is effective immediately, allowing newcomers to jump in without a wait.
The title is due on XBLA, PSN, PC, and Mac but is little more than an updated port of the old standby.
As it turns out, Counter-Strike: Source wasn't enough of an upgrade to the original Counter-Strike for Valve. Today, the company announced the latest iteration of the series, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, yet another incremental upgrade to the original formula. Coming to XBLA, PSN, and Steam for both PC and Mac in early 2012, players will be able to execute the same team-based gameplay in classic Counter-Strike maps as well as brand new ones. Additionally, new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and other yet to be announced content will be included in the game. As of right now the only specific confirmed additions are balance tweaks and a special decoy grenade that will set off bullet sounds in an attempt to trick enemies. Gamers attending PAX Prime and London Games Festival will be able to play the latest from Valve.
