North American Tales fans will get a double dose of the popular JRPG in the coming months.
North American Tales series fans won't have to wait much longer to get their Tales fix. Two Tales games will be making their way to American shores, the first of which is due out later this year. Tales of the Abyss 3D is a port of the original game, which released on the PlayStation 2 in 2006. Developers have promised that this remake will not only keep everything fans loved about the original, but that the game will feature fully remastered graphics that take full advantage of the 3DS hardware.
The next installment of Namco Bandai's tale of souls and swords hits Xbox 360 and PS3 in 2012.
Three years after the release of Soulcalibur IV, Soulcalibur V was officially announced by Namco Bandai last night. Due out for a 2012 release on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the next installation of the weapon-based fighting series will return in all of its violent and chesty glory.
This week brings release of WayForward's latest, alongside a WiiWare port of a beloved classic originally from BioWare.
While things have been slow as of late on the weekly Monday Nintendo Download, this week shakes things up, bringing two titles of interest on two different platforms.
The title will be a follow-up to Brotherhood, thus completing the Ezio trilogy.
Ubisoft announced today that yet another Assassin's Creed title based on the Ezio character will be coming to the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC this November. Assassin's Creed Revelations will complete the trilogy of games starring Ezio, which started with Assassin's Creed II.
While a remake, this solid tactics game is one that fans of the genre shouldn't miss.
Tactics Ogre is what you might call a “Tactics RPG.” This means that it’s like an RPG in every way except that battles occur on a pseudo-3D grid. If you’ve ever played Final Fantasy Tactics you’ll know what to expect. I’ve even seen an ad for Tactics Ogre that explicitly said “from the creators of Final Fantasy Tactics.” It’s practically a sequel. Right off the bat I can tell you that if you like that game, you’re definitely going to like this one.
Advent Children: The Game (feat. Kefka)
Dissidia 012, as you probably already know, is an RPG/fighting hybrid which pits characters from various Final Fantasy titles against each other. The deities Cosmos and Chaos have summoned all the greatest heroes and villains from the series to fight as their own personal armies, and the characters’ memories have been erased, so they don’t remember anything about their origins. It’s kind of depressing, actually.
The previously Japan-only Monolith Soft title is being localized by Nintendo of Europe.
This morning, Nintendo of Europe announced plans to localize the Monolith Soft title, Xenoblade, known now in Europe as Xenoblade Chronicles for the Wii. The title was originally revealed two years back at E3 2009 as Monado: Beginning of the World. Since the original announcement, Nintendo of America hasn't brought up the title again, though it's still on their website under its original name for an unspecified 2011 release.
This game's a tool.
I have to hand it to MediaMolecule, developers of LittleBigPlanet 2. They've created something truly amazing – a game that makes games is a pretty wild idea, and when you see what some people have made, it's only that much more impressive. Here's the thing though: while LittleBigPlanet 2 makes for an impressive specimen, it doesn't make for all that great of a game. The majority of the main levels are uninteresting and anything community produced, while potentially impressive, is just a one-time affair.
Don't expect the same experience you got back in 1997; this is quite a different offering.
Yes, you read that right, GoldenEye is back. But it's not back like you're thinking. If you're reading this, chances are you have some fond memories of the original title, released on the N64 by Nintendo and Rare. At the time, the game set the standards for console-based first person shooters, as the genre really had no significant presence in the market. Fast-forward thirteen years and the story is quite different. The first person shooter dominates the market, though its construction has deviated significantly from the design of GoldenEye 007 years ago. Most recently, the Call of Duty series has taken the market by storm, and has clearly had a huge influence on this re-imagination of story and gameplay of the original title. As such, GoldenEye 007 straddles the line between old school and new school first person shooter design, making for an experience that's not nearly as memorable as the title it borrows so much credibility from.
