It's looking like HD is going the way of handheld gaming, only not exactly. Sony is launching a campaign for popular PSP games to be remastered in HD on the PS3. The first game to be remastered from PSP to PS3 is Monster Hunter Portable 3rd- in Japan. We're not sure what games will be released from PSP to PS3 in North America or Europe, but we can think of a few great co-op games that would look really great all dressed up in HD.
Box art; check. Release date; check. Annoying pre-order bonus program; check. Glorious co-op acronym that all developers should staple to their wall; double-check!
Here it is folks - the first official gameplay trailer for Modern Warfare 3. In it we see a world at war with...well everyone. There's guns, explosions, guns, tanks, guns, helicopters, of course....guns. What do you pick up from this tease? Do the leaks match up?
Boehmia Interactive have announced Arma 3, the sequel to Arma 2. Shocking, I know. The series is created by many of the original developers of the first Operation Flashpoint game and it retains a gritty and realistic look at war. Along with this, the Arma games focus on realistic vehicles and weapons to try to emulate an authentic experience.
This week is harsh for full-size console co-op releases, but we do have a downloadable title and some portable gaming goodness heading our way. The godfather of dungeon crawlers gets some love, and the DOA girls go 3D.
We - - - report - the g- f-s over at Bethesda and Splash Damage are - content - simply rest - their laurels while we try - - the incredibly - - lag-plagued shooter, Brink.
We've seen the trailers, both of them. But what about the gameplay? Is Dead Island going to be a moody survival horror game, an action-packed race to safe houses, or something else entirely? The following video has some answers for us. Dead Island's gameplay is looking more like Fallout 3 than Resident Evil or Left 4 Dead. You'll meet up with NPC's, repair your weapons, and numbers will spray from your enemies as you damage them. You'll also see different enemy types as well as get a sense of scale for the island of Banoi (it's big enough to incorporate a fast-travel system). The video shows only single player footage, but we can get a good idea of where things are going from here. It looks like consoles may finally get a giant open world action RPG that supports cooperative play.
A what? A graaaaaaaail? Yes it is a quest for the Holy Grail in The First Templar, a hack and slash co-op adventure for the PC and 360. We take this title for a spin in our latest review and see if this is a quest for glory...or doom.
Its been some time since Sega announced Renegade Ops, a digital download title on the PC, 360, and PS3 from Just Cause 2 developer Avalance Studios. Today though we finally have some details about the game as well as the first gameplay footage.
Not all of us are asked to go into battle with no top on either
We've updated our Fable 3 review to include impressions and details about the recently released PC version of the game. Ready to head back into Albion? Read on!
In one corner, we have a gritty, brutal sword and sorcery beat 'em up. In the other, two hyper-adorable reptilian grinners who use bubbles as weapons. The two games could hardly be more different, yet each was highly successful in arcades and has spawned many follow ups over time.
