Mega Man 10 Trailer

Friday, December 18th, 2009

I’m guessing Dr. Wily is doing all kinds of bad things and it’s up to Mega Man to kick a bunch of bad robot’s asses.

Mega Man 10 is coming to WiiWare, Xbox LIVE and the PlayStation Store in March 2010.

Full press release, below:

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Atlus has pusehd back the North American release of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey to March 23 (Nintendo announced it as March 10 yesterday). The good news is that each copy of the game will come with a soundtrack. I’m so confused, I don’t know if I should be mad or happy. Or both at the same time.

Modern Warfare 2’s New Glitches

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

They fix the Javelin glitch and introduce two great new ones: infinite ammo on everything (no cooldown on the C-130’s guns, for instance) and joining random private matches when searching for games. Awesome. I’ve had a lot of trouble the past couple of days joining the same game with my party, which is amazingly annoying. These problems seem to effect the Xbox 360, only. Apparently Infinity Ward is aware of the problem, though. From their Twitter:

Preparing an in depth #MW2 Status Report for players to stay aware of what we’re addressing & how it’s progressing. Lots of updates in works

New Bayonetta Demo

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

After playing the demo…I want to get this game. The demo really sold it for me, the videos never really got me wanting the game, but the demo was fun. Anyway, the video shows off using enemy weapons, which is pretty cool.

Team Fortress 2 Adds Crafting

Monday, December 14th, 2009

wawr

Valve’s WAR! Update Team Fortress 2 will be adding in a new crafting system. Basically, you find blueprints (or otherwise discover, I guess some are “secret”), smelt all your useless duplicates weapons to scrap parts, and use those to make a weapon you actually want! I honestly think it’s a great way to go, my inventory is completely full of useless duplicates. Or was when I stopped playing a while ago.

Anyway, with these constant, free updates to Team Fortress 2, Valve is quickly becoming the most awesome game company. Ever.

Capcom on Wii, Phoenix Wright on WiiWare, Ace Attorney Investigations on DS, and Mega Man 10, the sequel to the download-only Mega Man 9.
