A brief look at some of the playable characters in Phantom Breaker.
A look at the characters/classes that players can choose to play as in Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.
Available now for the Xbox 360 as an Xbox Live Arcade title to be played exclusively with Kinect.
I got to lay waste to a city, break dance, take risqué pictures with myself, and star in my own '70s style dance video.
I'll be honest; Double Fine Happy Action Theater had me laughing out loud on a fairly frequent basis. As I made my way through the game's default Director Mode, I experienced 18 mini-game toys that were all completely unique in their construction. Because you can't win or lose and the game gives you no directions on how to play, each mini-game is all about experimentation and just having fun. With such a low barrier of entry and gameplay that accommodates up to six simultaneous players, it's almost impossible not to have a blast with Happy Action Theater.
The full list of voice actors include Freddie Prinze, Jr., Tricia Helfer, and Jessica Chobot.
BioWare has announced the voices of several characters in Mass Effect 3, including several celebrity voices. “We are absolutely thrilled with the passion and emotion the entire cast brought to their performances in Mass Effect 3,” said executive producer Casey Hudson. “In a story where Earth and the entire galaxy are at war, we needed to take the performances to a level of dramatic power and intensity that we’ve never previously attempted. This extremely talented cast delivered.”
I think the 12-bit generation must've been one of the best.
Faux retro games are all the rage these days. Capturing the look, sounds, and feeling of the gaming days of yore has proved to be a successful formula for most of the companies that have tried it. Renegade Kid has given the subgenre a shot with their latest title, Mutant Mudds, to great success. Instead of modeling itself after the most popular NES games, it creates its own identity that merges ideas from all past generations and systems – even the Virtual Boy. This mash up of ideas comes together in a spectacular way, making it one of the best titles available today on the 3DS.
Trash has never looked so good.
Janitors with an affinity for aerial acrobatics – say no more, I’m in. Dustforce is a peculiar concoction, simultaneously delivering serenity and insanity. It’s like a Siren luring in unsuspecting bystanders with its unprecedented beauty only to reveal an unnerving ferocity. Harboring difficulty on par with Super Meat Boy and N, Dustforce differentiates itself with its soothing melodic ambiance. While this game tests your limits and perhaps even your sanity – it is oddly enjoyable.
The party game by Double Fine will be released soon.
Double Fine has announced the release date for their new Xbox Live Arcade title exclusively for Kinect. Double Fine Happy Action Theater will be released on February 1, 2012 and will retail for 800 Microsoft Points or $10.
