Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D review: Soccer punch

Mike Suszek — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 19:50:00 EST

Sports gamers don't have much in the way of quality portable options. Games that try to emulate the console experience while lacking dual-stick controls typically fall flat, and their presentation never meets the standards console versions set.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D comes close, and for some, that might just be good enough.

Pro Evolution Soccer 3D screens are tiny but plentiful

Griffin McElroy — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 15:00:00 EST

We'll level with you: The screens for Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D posted below aren't the biggest, crispest JPEGs around. We hope you'll forgive their size, seeing as how there's over thirty of them. Just imagine that they're all scrunched together, creating one massive superscreenshot.

3DS 'launch window' to include more than 30 games leading up to E3

James Ransom-Wiley — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 11:15:00 EST

Did you hear? It's got a built-in pedometer! The 3DS measures your steps as you walk -- right there in your pocket! Even better: You can pull the thing out whenever and snap all kinds of pics -- the thing's got three cameras! And get this: It also pipes out music, browses the internet and even plays games.

True, you've already got a pile of old DS games (and now defunct DS devices) that you could be playing on your new pedometer, but more than 30 three-DEE titles are expected to be released during the 3DS "launch window" (which begins March 27 and promptly closes on June 7 with the start of E3).

We've listed 24 of the apparent launch-window releases after the break (though Nintendo's being coy about exact dates), including Nintendo's own Nintendogs + cats and Pilotwings Resort, plus a hearty helping of third-party support; with notable newcomers, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked (previously unannounced outside of Japan) and Crush 3D, a possible port of the 2007 PSP platforming puzzler from Sega.

Don't look at the date ambiguity in dismay -- see it as an opportunity! Beginning in late March, you can walk to and from GameStop in anticipation of a new batch of games each Tuesday for ten whole weeks, and the 3DS will count your steps -- each and every one of them! And just imagine how many Street Passes you're going to rack up?
