E3 Impressions: Nintendo Land

Remember that title that was shown last at the Nintendo media briefing? How could you forget? It sent a wave of sighs rippling through the entire room and out the doors across the entire internet.

E3 Impressions: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate

I spent more time trying to figure out how to format and hyphenate the title of this article than I did writing the entire article.

E3 Impressions: Theatrhythm

Yo man you like Elite Beat Agents? We got beats. You like Final Fantasy? We got Final Fantasy. You like Nobuo Uematsu? We got Nobuo Uematsu (and some other guys too for the later titles).

E3 Exclusive: Lollipop Chainsaw – James Gunn video interview

I had the pleasure of sitting down with film writer/director James Gunn, who now also steps into the world of videogame writing with his latest work on the hilarious and ridiculous Lollipop Chainsaw.

E3 Impressions: Tomb Raider

Today we were treated to a behind-closed-doors demo of Tomb Raider. This isn’t your familiar Lara Croft, however: the premise behind her entire adventure, including her backstory and even her personality, has been completely reimagined.

E3 Impressions: SimCity

We had the fortune of sitting down to see a private demo of the new SimCity title today, and we came away quite impressed. Chief among the remarkable accomplishments that the dev team has made is a seriously complex, granulated experience that not only governs the activitywithin your city of creation, but also between your city and the cities of your friends.

E3 Impressions: Quantum Conundrum

Here’s a game that crept up on me pretty quickly. It’s from the team behind Portal and is being published by Square Enix, and the parallels are immediately obvious.

E3 Impressions: New Super Mario Bros U

Here’s one Wii U game that everyone expected to see more of at the show this year, and it’s shaping up just as you’d expect. It’s pretty, easy to play, and lots of fun with four or five players.

E3 Impressions: Pikmin 3

Sweet.

E3 Impressions: Project P-100

So maybe you’ve heard Platinum Games is making a game for the Wii U, and it’s totally not a hyperviolent beat-em-up. No really, it’s something entirely different: more of an action/adventure/combat Pikmin.

E3 Impressions: Scribblenauts Unlimited

Originally Scribblenauts caused one heck of a ruckus upon its low-profile reveal a few years ago during E3. This year, the third installment of the series is coming to Wii U and 3DS, and it’s a really cool update.

E3 2012 – Coverage from the show floor!

We’ve packed our bags and we’re ready to fly out to LA to test out all the latest and greatest things the industry has to offer.  As usual, we’ll have coverage coming at you live from the show floor! This year, expect deeper impressions and more analytical coverage.  We’re toning down our volume and focusing on the items which strike us as most interesting.  You’ll fi...[Read More]
