Kid Icarus: Uprising release date
One of the first 3DS games to be announced is late to the party but will be here soon. On March 23 the game will hit store shelves and attempt to help Mario and Zelda keep the 3DS alive. The game is looking pretty good so far and hopefully it can bring something fresh to the table for Nintendo. I’m interested in seeing more of the multiplayer and knowing whether or not that will be popular with fans since it seems to play like an action game.
GI Joe: Retaliation trailer
The first trailer for the new GI Joe movie is out and it looks pretty badass. Pretty much the entire cast from the first movie is out and the film will now star Dwayne Johnson, who I think is a great action star and who should be able to breathe some life back into this series. The action will focus more on soldiers with guns as opposed to mini mech suits and Cobra finally has his helmet! Plus there is an awesome looking ninja battle and Bruce Willis in the same movie, so what more could you want?
Alan Wake in Night Springs
More information about the new Alan Wake game has surfaced. The game will not be tied to the main storyline of the first one. It puts Alan inside an episode of Night Springs (a Twilight Zone esque TV show inside the game) that he wrote before the events of the first game. Alan Wake must try to stop a serial killer named Mr. Scratch who is made out of the same darkness that you fight in the first game and who resembles Alan. This stand alone game will also feature their take on Horde mode called “Fight till Dawn” in which you must do just that in order to win.
I Am Alive survival trailer
Another big budget downloadable game on its way has a new trailer focused on how to survive in the game’s devastated city. You will be unable to stay on the ground for long periods due to all of the dust and so you must either find a gas mask or routinely climb up onto rooftops for fresh air. The game will also have items lying around that can be given to other people in the city to complete side quests or just to be nice. It is looking quite interesting so far, but I still want to know what the core story will revolve around, beside survival and adapting, and how you will ultimately win the game.
Monster Mash
Final Fantasy XIII-2 has a new feature in which you can unlock enemies for use during combat. The system is rather deep and allows monsters to level up using the Crystarium system like the rest of the characters as well as activating special moves that require precise button presses and the ability to learn new attacks from other monsters collected. It seems like an interesting addition to the combat that will allow for different pacing and more experimentation in battles. I’m curious as to the level of difficulty in capturing these enemies and summoning them. I almost never used summoning in FFXIII because of how long it took to fill the meter, so hopefully these will be a lot easier to use.
New modes for Call of Duty
In the next few weeks Infinity Ward is set to take a page out of Bungie’s playbook and add gamemodes that were created by fans to playlist so that everyone can experience them. There isn’t an exact date yet or number of gametypes but for those of you looking to drop even more time in this game any amount of new ways to play for free must be music to your ears.
