Child of Light Coming to Vita
Child of Light is an absolutely staggeringly beautiful game, great fun and impressing critics left and right. There's one problem though: if you're not sat at a console, you're not going to be able to enjoy it. That's why it's great news that Ubisoft have announced that they're bringing Aurora and pals to the PlayStation Vita later this year.
Zombie Vs Plants Isn’t What You Think
Popcap's Plants Vs Zombies is one of the biggest casual titles in the world. There were always going to be clones and "influenced bys," but one indie developer has gone one step further. He's turned the tables, letting players get revenge as a gun-toting zombie in Zombie Vs Plants. There's only one question: how long till EA shut the whole thing down?
Bandai Namco Hint at Digimon Localisation
Digimon rode the same wave Pokemon did for a while in the nineties, but when the fad ended, so too did the mainstream acceptance of those digital champions. Pokemon kept working as a full-on RPG and Digimon, at least here in the UK, disappeared from charts. That might be about to change.
Hyrule Warriors HY-YAHing to Japan in August
We've all been waiting a long time for a new console entry in the Legend of Zelda franchise, and while Hyrule Warriors probably wasn't what the majority of us had in mind, it's in no way a bad thing. It'll offer a fresh look at Zelda's kingdom, and will probably benefit quite a bit from the Dynasty Warriors style. Despite all that, there's still a lot we don't know about the game. This is especially surprising when you realize that it's only a few months away from release.
GAME Looking to Float on Stock Market, Fool Stupid People
UK retailer GAME have today announced their intentions to float on the stock market, meaning that just under two years after the company nearly disappeared completely, they're again looking to become publicly funded. This is big news for them, or at least that's how they're trying to frame it. In reality, they're trying to cash in on next-gen excitement while the time is ripe.
Watch Dogs Should Run Well on Almost Any PC
Got a gaming PC? Good news then: Ubisoft's upcoming Watch Dogs should run fairly well for you. It's a decent looking game, but you're not going to need a super powerful rig to get it running. No, it's playable on 'ultra' settings with a Geforce 670 - a decent card but hardly high end.
Microsoft Announce Halo 5: Guardians
I suppose you think Halo 5 was already announced and official, right? Well, technically it was. Microsoft confirmed that it existed and that there would one day be a Halo game taking advantage of Xbox One features - as if there was ever any doubt - but today they reconfirmed it by announcing it all over again. Halo 5: Guardians will be developed by 343 Industries and will be available for purchase in Fall 2015.
PlayStation Now Will Have “Hundreds of Titles” at Launch
Feeling a bit overwhelmed by how many titles you have in the backlog? Worried that your 250+ games on Steam have never been touched, and yet you keep buying them? Things might be about to get much worse. IGN are reporting that they've been told the PlayStation Now streaming service will contain "hundreds of titles" at launch, an event that's happening this summer for you lucky North Americans.
TERA Adds Real Money Boob Jobs for in-game Avatars
If there's one thing that sells, it's boobs. Whatever your opinion on using a curvacious figure to push a product, there's no doubt that it works. The MMO genre is particularly heavy with mammary glands, and it's about to get heavier. TERA has just possibly become the first MMO to sell boob jobs for female characters... and they're charging real money to boot.
New Mario Kart Video Displays Crazy Upside Down Racing
Nintendo succeeded in impressing an awful lot of people with Mario Kart 8. Not only does the gameplay look strong and original, but the addition of a bonus digital title with every purchase makes it a bargain on any level. Not to waste even a small part of that excitement, they've today released a brand new video showcasing the biggest change coming to the franchise: anti-gravity racing.
