Well fuck. Q4 2012 is looking to be a sexy time. Not only are we getting Tomb Raider and a new Call of Duty instalment but we’ve also got RESIDENT EVIL 6 on its way. I’m literally having a spasm from all the excitement. Literally.
You can keep up with all the excitement via their twitter feed and facebook group.
It has been ten years since the incident at Raccoon City and the President of the United States has decided to reveal the truth behind what took place. Raccoon City survivor and personal friend of the President, Leon S. Kennedy, arrives to find the President transformed beyond recognition by a bioterrorist attack. Leon is forced to make the hardest decision he has ever made.
At the same, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance Member, Chris Redfield arrives in China, itself under threat of a bioterrorist attack.
Though I’m surprised. I swear they said the next Resident Evil game was going to shy away from the previous story and characters but some series regulars are in there. I’m sure we’ll start hearing more about it over the next few months.
Do I even need to explain why I’m so happy Xiaoyu is in Street Fighter x Tekken? You can check her out in the newest character reveal video here.
I’m getting excited all over again for it and am even thinking of picking up this sexy Soul Calibur V Hori fight stick. Though I’m tempted to wait it out just in case another femme fatale styled stick releases. I was so gutted when they sold out. Any advice? I’ve currently got a basic Hori Fighting Stick EX2.
Plus, this means I can continue my quest to mispronounce of her name for a few more years.
Chow-yu, Zai-yu, Zaio-yu, Zi-yu… THE MISTAKES ARE ENDLESS!
This has been a hot topic for a while now but Twitter raged again after Imagine’s Now Gamer advertised their “competition” to win a blog on their website. You get exposure and they get free content. You’ll get no money and they will get ad revenue. Is it a step into journalism or a cheap trick to take advantage of budding new writers?
Outraged writers took to twitter to vent their frustration and John Walker, of Rock, Paper, Shotgun fame, posted this blog with his feelings on the subject.
This has left a lot of budding writers confused on what to do. Should they write for free for a semi-large website or should they stick to their guns and demand payment for their services. As someone who does both paid and free work, I thought I’d share some advice to confused new writers. Read more…
I always seem to be late with Nintendo consoles. I bought a second-hand a GameCube in 2007, I “borrowed” my GameBoy from a friend at school with Pokémon Blue, and I had to visit a friend house to play GoldenEye, Super Mario World and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. I was brought up on PC, Amiga, Atari and Sony as.. well.. my parents weren’t exactly rich and those SEGA and Nintendo consoles were a tad pricey.
I now own a Wii. 5 years a quite late, don’t you think?
It was a present for my birthday and it came with Animal Crossing, Xenoblade Chronicles, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and some accessories. To further spoil myself, I picked up Skyward Sword the other day and am looking forward to having some Wii time.
I think Nintendo try too hard to innovate rather than just improve. For example, the 3DS is a great handhold once you turn off the bloody 3D. I have no interest in playing games in 3D. 3D is difficult for me anyway without the screen being tiny and moving around in my hands. I love all the Street Pass stuff and the online play has been very good. I found the DS’s touch screen is more of a novelty than anything else and stuck to games that hardly used it.
Apart from Ghost Trick. I love me some Ghost Trick.
Even using the Wii’s main menu is a faff. I just want to use the dpad rather than having to select a channel with the pointer so I can use the buttons to flick through. I’ve never finished a Wii game because motion gaming does nothing for me. I think Skyward Sword will be the first game I’ll try to complete with motion controls.
Please recommend me some must haves for my new blue Wii in the comments.
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
