Nintendo's Wii U Mario reveal based on E3 2011 Mario demo
Nintendo said this week that it'll have a new Mario game for the Wii U to show off at E3 – not exactly the most surprising news, but exciting no less. As it turns out, however, that game will apparently be based on last year's Wii U Mario demo ... which was essentially New Super Mario Bros. ...
Report: Don't expect next-Xbox announcements this year
The marketing director of Microsoft France has said the 360 still has some life left in its hard drive, and Microsoft won't be unveiling anything new this year. "Xbox 360′s cycle is not at all finished. The proof is that we don't see the logic in cutting the price this year," Cedrick Delmax ...
The Simpsons go to 'E4'
The opening scene of last night's Simpsons episode brought the family to the "Expensive Electronic Entertainment Expo" (or "E4," a joke that works even better if you realize the writers forgot about the existence of E For All). You'll have to wait eight days or so to see the episode on Hulu if ...
BioShock Infinite E3 demo video coming July 7, first two minutes right here
You've surely already read about what we saw during the E3 demo of BioShock Infinite, from the sky-lines to Elizabeth's tearing ability and all of the other quirks of the floating city of Columbia. But perhaps that's not enough for you. Perhaps you want to pick over the experience yourself, ...
Now you too can watch the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD E3 demo
Anxious to get your first glimpse at Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD? Well, here's your chance -- just try not to be too harsh on the person Konami has playing the game. We're not sure this individual gets the whole "stealth" thing. ...
Ninja Gaiden 3 preview: The evolution of mammals
When I asked Ninja Gaiden 3 lead Fumihiko Yasuda how the protagonist was able to glide through the air with nothing more than a black, skin-tight suit, I committed the sin of dragging logic into a discussion that was utterly incompatible with it. Ryu Hayabusa can fly because he's a ninja, and ...
E3 2011 spurs half a million PlayStation Home visits
We like to make fun of PlayStation Home, but it turns out if you put cool stuff there, people will log in. VentureBeat reports over 500,000 people showed up for the festivities, which included interviews and gameplay demonstrations of what was on offer on the E3 show floor, plus a live stream of ...
Shinobi preview: The re-revenge of Shinobi
If you've heard that the new 3DS Shinobi game feels exactly like the original -- or any Shinobi game to date -- you've heard wrong. Even though it's published by Sega and it's about a ninja, Griptonite's new Shinobi is definitely a modern action game. It does take some inspiration from the ...
Risen 2: Dark Waters preview: Murky depths
There's an interesting trend lately of hardcore PC RPGs coming out of Europe, of which The Witcher 2 is only the latest and greatest so far. One of the earliest entries in this sort of splinter genre was 2001's Gothic, a game that was extremely popular among its European audience despite being ...
Cave Story 3D preview: Pixel goes polygonal
I'll admit it: my excitement about a new version of Cave Story to play on the 3DS was tempered a bit by fears that it wouldn't turn out right. To put it more directly, my excitement was tempered by the first screenshots of Cave Story 3D. But upon playing the remake, it was immediately evident ...
