Hey kids, remember when Sonic still starred in cool games and had a shred of credibility? No? Well, he did once, and that credibility was used to endorse Honey Nut Cheerios. Yes, Cheerios do seem like the perfect fit for a blazingly fast rodent.
Actually, we can’t be sure how much of this is in game or not, but it certainly is showing off more than the infamous crying trailer. You get a couple of quick glimpses of one level (a neighborhood in the rain, who’d have guessed?) and some shots of the team modeling characters. And yes, it’s still as graphically impressive as it ever was.
Ever wondered what some folks did before video games? Before they had a DS or a Wii to draw all those pretty graphics for them? Well, they drew their own. It seems some folks simply can’t give up that old lifestyle, though, as they’ve taken to creating their own hand drawn video games. In this case, you get a pretty fun animation of Mario drawn on the fly.
It may not sound like it at first, but Ninja Gaiden for the NES is the perfect title to get an anime redo. The game was one of the first to really use cut-scenes to tell a story within what was otherwise a general action platformer. This update is certainly stylish and adds the right amount of new while keeping the iconic shots from the original still in there. It would be neat to see the entire game’s story remade this way. If it has been, pass the info along below.
There aren’t many games that can wow you simply by seeing them play, and having little to do with the sharpness of their graphics. Valkyria Chronicles, much like Okami before it, is simply poetry in motion. It’s a game that’s just beautiful to watch, regardless of how it plays. Now, let’s hope the gaemplay is there to back up the visuals.
Who says the DS and iPhone have to be mortal enemies? Perhaps, the beauty of music can bring these two touch friendly devices together? That’s just what three enterprising individuals have tried with their video “iBand.” Two iPhones and one DS playing Electroplankton team up for a nice little tune together. One has to wonder why the PSP was not invited to this impromptu jam session, and hope it wasn’t such an exclusionary reason as it not being touch sensitive.
This site has featured Zelda landscapes created from Legos in the past. This site has featured CG animated Zelda video adventures in the past. Now, finally, comes the Lego Legend of Zelda adventure video. Yes, this is stop motion. Yes, this is crudely done. And yes, it is pretty cool despite its flaws. One question left, though. When will all the video game Lego madness end?
Yes, it’s another one of those fun and very impressive game remakes using the Source engine. This time it’s the N64 classic Perfect Dark. Now, for the younger gamers out there, please don’t confuse the original Perfect Dark with its sickly sequel Perfect Dark Zero. The original was the spiritual sequel to GoldenEye 007 and it showed with incredible level design and gameplay balancing. They don’t make them like this anymore, well, unless you count remakes like Perfect Dark Source.
If you haven’t heard of Shards of Death 5 yet, you will. Still, it seems a real shame that this poor little fella couldn’t find a role for himself in the most anticipated sequel of the year. Oh well, there’s always the chance that with Mario Kart Wii there will be a resurgence in the popularity of kart racers and the gaming world might finally get what it has been asking for, Shards of Death Kart Grand Prix.
Metal Gear Solid 4 is shaping up to be one of those games that define a console generation. If it should so manage, it would be quite a feat, as no Metal Gear game has really done so before (with perhaps Metal Gear Solid 2 coming closest). This newest trailer features a walkthrough of the game with narration explaining many of the new game mechanics. How does it look? Smooth and crisp, and like the console seller for the PS3 people expect it to be.
