Anarchy Reigns is picking up a sexy new character -- if you're into the whole sultry-librarian-witch-who-wears-a- bodysuit-made-out-of-her-own-hair-while-quad-wielding-pistols sort of thing. Then again, who isn't? While it's not exactly Bayonetta 2, Anarchy Reigns will allow players to step into the weave witch's ballistic heels while brawling with several other insanely unique (or uniquely insane) characters.
In February we reported on a rumor that Sony's popular LittleBigPlanet series would be receiving a kart racer spin-off. Co-Optimus would never steer you wrong, deer readers - Sony has now officially announced LittleBigPlanet Karting for Playstation 3. It will come from United Front Games, the makers of ModNation Racers. That revelation brings its own set of expectations and concerns, but I dare you not to be impressed by the new game's reveal trailer.
As I walked to the living room, and called for my faithful ten-year old sidekick to fire up the 360, it occurred to me that a friend had left his copy of Gears of War 3 at our house. I walked back to the kitchen, where super-Mom was dutifully preparing dinner. Grabbing her hand, I put a controller in it, and invited her to join us in some Horde mode. She protested a bit, but I insisted.
The first trailer is here for the XNA game I've been working on under the studio name, Brain Shape Games. While our previous trailer of Blue Shield Alliance gave a glimpse into the story, our latest trailer from our pre-alpha version will give you a glimpse into the gameplay of this twin-stick shooter for Xbox Live Indie Games and PC.
Chromehounds exiles should feel relief at last now that Armored Core V has made its way to stores. The latest Armored Core game integrates elements from the now-defunct multiplayer-oriented mech combat sim. Indeed, joining a clan is basically mandatory in Armored Core V and the entire game can now be played with online teammates. If the expanded co-op features don't get your interest, perhaps this launch trailer will.
Rumors of a game based The Boondock Saints have been trickling out for a couple months, and finally the game was annonced at the Boondock Saints Video Game panel during SXSW. Although no details have been given, it was being toted as “full on co-op shooter”, which makes us all quiver with excitement.
By my calculations, I haven't posted anything about Dark Souls in about 68 days. Amazing, I know. Luckily for me (and you) Facebook has given us something post-worthy. 21 hours ago the official Dark Souls page began teasing an announcement. There has already been rampant speculation concerning DLC or a PC port, both of which would be well received by the community.
Warren Spector, designer for Epic Mickey, admits that he didn’t make the first game as “epic” as he wanted it to, but Disney Interactive Studios next Mickey game in the works, Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, will hopefully give him a chance to truly be epic, in every sense of the word.
Are you a PC gamer? Do you love third-person shooters? Do you enjoy screaming voice commands into your mic that largely go unheeded by your teammates? Then I've got a game for you! Binary Domain will soon be available on PC. How soon? How about next month? Yes, Binary Domain, which happens to be a very good cover-based shooter, is coming to PC in April. You can pre-order that bad boy on Steam.
Time is irrelevant for The Doctor, so this delay is merely a rearrangement in the Doctor's schedule. According to the official Twitter account for Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock, the game has been delayed slightly to put the finishing touches on things. Originally slated for a late March release, the game is now firmly into April, though a specific date was not given.
I'm a person of a certain age and should have grown out of cartoons by now, but when these cartoons are made by Pixar I can't help but get excited. Pixar films are invariably great *cough* not Cars 2 *cough* and they often come with tie in video games. This is the case with Brave: The Video Game, which will follow the co-op trend of Up and Toy Story 3.
If you've been itching for a new beat-em-up, next week's Xbox Live Arcade release should provide some welcome relief. Kung Fu Strike: The Warrior's Rise, from developer Qooc Soft and publisher 7sixty Games, heads to XBLA a week from now on March 28 for 800 MS Points ($10). As you might expect, it will offer plenty of martial arts mayhem and most importantly, 2 player local co-op.
