If you watch just one video this E3, make it this one! {hwdvs-player}785{/hwdvs-player} See how many games you can count. I did leave out a couple of big titles, too… but hey, nobody’s perfect. 🙂
Reflection – Ten new EXCLUSIVE screenshots from the perplexing DSiWare platformer
Just in case you missed our glowing impressions and HD video footage of Konami’s upcoming Reflection DSiWare title, the gist of it all is that it’s a 3-hour mind-bending romp through some of the most innovating platforming gameplay we’ve seen on a handheld in some time. The game forces you to watch both the top and bottom DS screens, each of which features a slightly-different v...[Read More]
Splosion Man: Exclusive developer-guided single- and multi-player footage
CEO of Twisted Pixel Games Mike Wilford was nice enough to let us play the heck out of his E3 demo of their newest platformer, Splosion Man, while he narrated and guided us through the entire experience. And while our impressions speak for themselves, this video ought to be proof that we aren’t kidding. There are two separate videos here; one’s the single-player stuff and the other is...[Read More]
Impressions: Splosion Man
Seriously, downloadable games just plain rock. While they’re obviously still attractive and the production values are often quite high, they’re much more reliant by design on great gameplay and solid concepts. In other words, in order to succeed, they need to be fun. Splosion Man is a perfect example of the reason I get so excited about new downloadable titles. It’s a game created by an indie deve...[Read More]
Impressions: Trials HD
What would Excitebike be like if it featured explosive barrels and ragdoll physics? That’s the first thing that came to mind when I saw the indie Xbox Live Arcade title Trials HD on the show floor. Originally a downloadable PC title under a different name, Trials puts you in control of a positively bone-headed stunt devil in a variety of downright insane situations. Most of these comprise some co...[Read More]

Impressions: Persona
I was kind of late to the party with Atlus’ MegaTen games. I read a few reviews for Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne, decided to pick it up, and was instantly hooked by the quirky RPG. My addiction continued with both Digital Devil Sagas, as well as Persona 3 and Persona 4. I threw over a hundred hours in both of the Persona games, and, unlike most other JRPG’s, absolutely indulged in every minute o...[Read More]
Impressions: Wipeout HD Fury
Wipeout HD Fury was quite the unexpected find. Word of mouth was nonexistent, it didn’t show at Sony’s press conference, and it could only be found at one lonely kiosk on the show floor. Furthermore, I had to go through four Sony reps before I could locate someone who could tell me anything about the game. But I got some details, eventually. Of particular interest are a couple new modes. The first...[Read More]
