Platinum Games’ upcoming Wii U title The Wonderful 101 is sure to be a sleeper hit at the very least. While many fans have been anticipating it for quite some time, the title has more or less been shrouded in a bit of mystery since its announcement. Sure, it’s been shown off here and there, [...]

In case you missed it, Nintendo just announced that they have entered into a “worldwide partnership” with Sega to bring a slew of new titles to Wii U and 3DS, most notably three exclusive Sonic games. As such, Iwata stated that the first Sonic project, entitled Sonic: Lost World, will be coming to Wii U [...]

Games are about action, but usually that action is put to good use, no matter how self-serving it may be. Need to kill a million aliens to save the world? Annihilate a few thousand human soldiers to end the war? Even taking out endless waves of cops and other random citizens during a bank heist [...]

LEVEL-5′s “Guild” anthology has been home to some interesting games. Aero Porter, for instance, was a game about sorting luggage. The first North American release from follow-up Guild02 , The Starship Damrey, continues that tradition as a tutorial-less, hint-less survival horror game. Players awaken from cold sleep on a starship with no memory of who [...]

The planet is almost completely dead, just a round lumpy circle of dry rock. No life, nearly featureless, and doing little more than taking up space in a grey kind of way. This won’t do at all. With an effort, it conjures up a colossus that can begin the work or terraforming the planet’s surface. [...]

The PC port has gotten fairly mixed reviews due to poor optimization, so if you’ve already got a console version of it, this isn’t a must-buy, but [...]

While the debut trailer for Road to Hell Route 666 showcased its fair share of gameplay, it proved hard to get a grip on exactly how a tactical motorcycle game would work. As such, a walkthrough — nay “Rockthrough” — was released for the game. You’ll be taking on the role of Jack Ride, coincidental [...]

Looking past the ridiculous name, Compile Heart has opened their official Fairy Fencer F website, and along with it, the game’s first screenshots. If you’re unfamiliar with the game, this is a Playstation 3 exclusive RPG from the creators of the Hyperdimension Neputnia franchise and Mugen Souls. The game will feature beautiful anime-inspired character designs [...]

Insomniac Games has always had a wild sense of creativity when developing their games. Whether it’s Ratchet & Clank or Resistance, the Burbank-based studio knows how to come up with a physics-defying arsenal that goes well beyond most shooters. This looks to continue with their next game, Fuse, offering even more alien weaponry to be [...]

If you’re one of the many who wisely avoided the Club Nintendo promotion for the Wii VC version, then you’ve probably been waiting patiently for the crown jewel of the 30 cent Wii U VC Trial games. Not only is Super Metroid the best overall game in the trial program (with Punch-Out being in the [...]
