Game Previews
By Carl Nelson on February 20, 2008
I’ll admit it. I got sucked into the debate. When EGM first revealed details of Street Fighter IV, the internet was up in arms. People ridiculed the graphics to an incredible and inexcusable extent (after all, the game isn’t nearly completed). They mocked the character design, and put down the art style.
Then came the [...]

Love it or hate it, Street Fighter 4 has a brand new, unique look. EGM had the world-exclusive when they revealed screenshots featuring Ken and Ryu. Then the internet exploded. Ryu looks too big! Their eyes are too round! Their feet are too big! Ryu has a boner! blah-blah blah.
Anyway, Famitsu got to reveal [...]

In the latest Warhammer Online newsletter, Mythic have released a video showing what Realm vs. Realm combat will (somewhat) look like when the game is released (they took out magic spells). As soon as you watch it, you’ll see that it looks very much like a high-end World of Warcraft. That’s only fair, since Warcraft’s [...]

If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you might notice that I am pretty stoked for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. I was a huge fan of Street Fighter II in the arcade, and always love playing retro games redone with new graphics. SSFIITHDR was already looking to be [...]

Looks like I was thinking along the right lines, as Bionic Commando was my first choice when coming up with a list of old school 2D video games that need to be revamped – in 2D. Okay, so I was only partially correct this time; Capcom also wanted to make a new Bionic Commando game, [...]

There are plenty of serious games coming out in the next month or so and even more awesomeness being released by the end of this year. I eagerly await Bioshock and it won’t be long before Crysis is available (so everyone will have an excuse to buy a DX10 video card). But what [...]

1up.com has the EXCLOOSIVE FIRST LOOK~! at a game I am almost TOO hyped about – Contra IV. Just like New Super Mario Bros. is to the Super Mario Bros. franchise, Contra IV DS lets us forget about all the shitty ports that have been excreted onto the market…
Instead, it looks like they are [...]

In an unexpected turn of events, I received the announcement that the official website for the DS version of Dragon’s Lair has been launched today.
Yup, I had to do a double-take as well. But apparently, it’s coming. The Blu-Ray version was quite a success – it was the first title to fully show off the [...]

I went to Denmark for a few days a couple years ago. Fantastic place, pleasant people…Copenhagen is one of the coolest places on the planet, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t know much else about the country other than since late 2000, they have made badass games. Danish developer IO Interactive [...]

Special editions of games are getting more and more elaborate these days. While some simply have a different box, others include some nice goodies such as concept art books, figurines, soundtrack CDs and other collectibles for die hard fans. They might cost ten or twenty bucks more but hey, if you’re an enthusiast, [...]
