community-fact-or-fiction-may-13

It’s been a month since we redesigned our website and introduced our whole “Community Spotlight” initiative, and today is sort of a payoff to that. We’re very committed to the whole networking with other gaming and movie bloggers on Wordpress.com and sharing the links to our favorites whether it be through our blogroll or Spotlight in the sidebar, the Recommended Reading in the footer, or our weekly “Community Spotlight: Recommended Reading” posts. Today though, we are extremely happy to introduce a new monthly feature called Community Fact or Fiction. And the main reason I am personally excited for this feature is because it’s allowing us to not just spotlight and promote other bloggers that I really like, but to work with them as well in a big collaboration. That’s … [Read more...]

Ubisoft Confirms Watch_Dogs & Assassin’s Creed IV for Xbox One

Ubisoft

From the "you don't say" department: Ubisoft has officially confirmed that both Watch_Dogs and Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag are coming to Xbox One. We needed this confirmation because "available on PlayStation 4 and other next-gen platforms" simply wasn't clear. Of course Ubisoft will get no lover from a Xbox press event, because they give exclusive content (mainly missions, and including both Assassin's Creed IV and Watch_Dogs) to PlayStation. Here's the tweet to officially confirm what we all already knew, because you know "official." https://twitter.com/Ubisoft/status/336903299917819905 Both games will be out this Fall for almost every platform available (PlayStation 3 & 4, PC, Wii U, Xbox 360 & One), because unlike some publishers (EA, Activision), Ubisoft … [Read more...]

New Super Luigi U

New Super Luigi U may be DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U, and a complete repacking of it at that, but now you'll know no longer need to own New Super Mario Bros. U to enjoy playing New Super Luigi U. Super. Today, Nintendo announced that the Luigi title will be getting a boxed retail release on August 28th in North America and July 26th in Europe (hey Nintendo, stop it with these month long separations between releases). The digital version of the game is coming June 20th, and since it is DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U you will need to own and use the disc for that game to play it. If you don't own the Mario game and still want to play as Luigi, you can pick this physical copy which isn't overpriced for $29.99 (the digital DLC version is $19.99). Speaking of the boxed release, check … [Read more...]

Sonic: Lost World Announced Exclusively For Wii U & 3DS

May 17, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Sonic Lost World

Sonic fans, I hope you have a Wii U (or a 3DS), because Nintendo today announced they've entered into a partnership with SEGA in which Nintendo will be the exclusive home of Sonic for his next three adventures. The first of which was also announced today along with the image above, it's called "Sonic: Lost World." No details about the game were talked about, but it will be an action-adventure platformer, and more details will be revealed around E3. Here's hoping Nintendo gets directly involved with the project, as the Sonic developers don't have the best track record these days to make me get excited about anything. They've never really done good 3D Sonic, at least not for me. Still, as a Wii U owner, it's something to keep an eye on especially since it will be an exclusive. … [Read more...]

The Wii U exclusive title from developer PlatinumGames finally has a release date: September 15th in North America. If you're in Europe, you can your hands it on almost a month earlier on August 23rd. You can pre-order the game now. The mass-hero action games puts you in control of a large group of superheroes trying to protect a city from an Alien invasion. Think "The Avengers" movie with a hundred heroes and a big ass sword; looks pretty fun to me. … [Read more...]

Wii U & 3DS Summer Showcase Nintendo Direct Happening Tomorrow Morning

May 16, 2013 By Leave a Comment
Wii U

Nintendo today announced that they will have a Nintendo Direct happening tomorrow morning at 9am CST. This Direct will be about the various Wii U and 3DS games coming out this Summer, so I wouldn't expect any big announcements to be made although you never know. Frankly, as a Wii U owner I am much more interested in the other Nintendo Direct that they announced today which will happen right before the start of E3. That one will focus on the Fall/Holiday games and beyond, and considering that Nintendo won't be doing an E3 conference, one can safely expect that one to be where Nintendo announces some good stuff (new 3D Mario, bring it Nintendo!). You can watch tomorrow's Nintendo Direct at http://nintendo.com/nintendo-direct at 9am CST. … [Read more...]
