Persona 4 Golden is coming to PlayStation Vita

by Elias - on May 2nd 2012 - No Comments

The remastered version of Persona 4: Golden is coming our way to the PS Vita this fall. Golden received a great metascore and it even received a couple of “Editor’s Choice” awards, so it was inevitable that the folks over at Atlus bring this game to the Vita. It is probably one of the best role playing games out there bringing in an enhanced and expanded portable version of the highly acclaimed original. Below, we have some screenshots and you expect Persona 4: Golden sometime this fall.

 

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 officially revealed with debut trailer

by Paul Yan - on May 1st 2012 - No Comments

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has been officially unveiled and here’s you first look at it.

Unlike past Treyarch-developed CoD games, it looks like Black Ops 2 will take place in the future in the year 2025 as mechs, quadrotor attack drones and hover jets are shown in the trailer. Additionally, there’s a glimpse of Los Angeles and horse-riding as well, and the trailer is narrated by an elderly man named Frank Woods who is presumably the main character from Black Ops 1.

Black Ops 2 will be released on Nov. 13 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. As a person who was getting a bit jaded with the CoD series, I have to say that this trailer made me wet myself and definitely has me psyched for Black Ops 2.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed announced

Sega characters will once again be racing head-to-head as Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed has been revealed.

The racing game, which is a sequel to 2010’s Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing, will feature a mash-up of new and returning Sega characters like Sonic, Dr. Eggman, Super Monkey Ball’s AiAi, Golden Axe’s Gilian Thunderhead, and Skies of Arcadia’s Vyse. Like the name of the game suggests, you’ll now be able to drive in transformable vehicles, which will change into cars, boats and planes if you’re on land, water and air, respectively. In one track, for example, the road will collapse making your car turn into a boat as you now have to traverse a river rapid.

Sonic & All-Stars will include new tracks, with two based on Super Monkey Ball and Panzer Dragoon. There will also be a new mechanic letting your “All-Star bar” power up faster, and a new, “fair” weapon system will be implemented allowing you to block and dodge attacks. Additionally, the game will have an “enhanced” online multiplayer mode, along with Grand Prix and Battle Arena modes.

Sonic & All-Stars will be racing out in “late” 2012 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, and Nintendo 3DS. It will also be available as a digital download on PC. Click here for more screenshots of the game.

GameTrailers reveals PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale [UPDATE/EDIT]

by Paul Yan - on Apr 26th 2012 - No Comments

[Note: This post has been updated and edited.]

That HUUUGE PlayStation 3 exclusive game that GameTrailers has been teasing about this past week is, in fact, SuperBot Entertainment’s PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, as tonight’s GTTV episode revealed.

The game, which was first rumored late last year as “Title Fight,” is a Super Smash Bros.-style fighting game featuring a cast of characters from Sony’s PlayStation games. Some of the playable fighters include Fat Princess, Kratos, Sly Cooper, Sweet Tooth, Radec (Killzone) and Parappa the Rapper.

PlayStation All-Stars will feature four-player online multiplayer, and each character will have their own unique moves (e.g., Sly can turn invisible), as well as three levels of “Super” special moves (e.g., Radec’s level three Super allows him to go into first-person shooter mode akin to Solid Snake in Super Smash Bros. Brawl). Additionally, there will be third-party characters as well.

For the game’s levels, they’ll be mash-ups from games likes God of War and Patapon as one stage features Hades and Patapons in the background, with the former able to hurt players. Another level is a LittleBigPlanet-themed stage called “Dreamscape” that actually gets built as players duke it out.

PlayStation All-Stars will be hitting the PS3 in “holiday” of this year. Check out the trailer below for official first gameplay footage of PlayStation All-Stars.

So excited!

Game details

In Port Royale 3: Pirates and Merchants, players will embark upon an epic adventure through the Caribbean during the turbulent 17th century where the naval powers of Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands, all fight for supremacy in the colonies. Players take on the role of a young captain trying to build his fortune and reputation in the new world colonies. The campaign consists of two different paths for the young protagonist to follow: adventurer and trader.

Following the path of the adventurer will lead the player on a naval conquest where they must gain notoriety through raids, piracy, bounty hunting, plundering, and conquering cities as they strive to build their new Caribbean empire.

The route of the trader sees the player using their economic know-how to become the most powerful trading tycoon in the New World by setting up trade routes, building production facilities and developing cites.

In free-play mode, the player crafts a combination of the two paths, creating a unique and challenging scenario on the path to increase wealth and power.

Features of Port Royale 3 Pirates and Merchants:

  • Two different single player campaigns: Adventurer and Trader
  • Naval battles, raids, plundering and invasions await the Adventurer, while the Trader will develop trade routes and the economy to earn glory, fortune and power
  • 16 different ship types, such as powerful Galleons or versatile Frigates
  • Organize trade with 60 different cities such as Port-au-Prince or Tortuga
  • A comprehensive trade system, with supply and demand dynamically setting the price of goods and wares, like in the real world
