  • Atlus Hints at Another Announcement June 9th

    The Atlus homepage is now teasing yet another announcement on June 9th. The front page simply displays a large number of playing cards with the message “We’ll show you our hand.” This has obviously is lead people to believe the announcement will be for a card-based game, such as Yggdra Union for the PSP, Culdcept…

  • New Resident Evil 5 Trailer

    This latest Resident Evil 5 trailer looks pretty cool. The game play seems somewhat similiar to Resident Evil 4, but with a lot more enemies on screen at the same time. Are people infected with the same Plaga parasite like in Resident Evil 4, as well?

  • Beyond Good & Evil 2 Trailer

    I honestly never played the first one. Thrasher loved it and I finally did buy it for the Xbox. However, by then I had an Xbox 360 and the game wasn’t backwards compatible with it. I was too lazy to get the Xbox out of it’s box, so that was the end of that. Anyway,…

  • Bionic Commando Rearmed Soundtrack

    Just in case you’re into awesome and radical video game soundtracks, the Bionic Commando Rearmed Soundtrack is up for sale on iTunes. I like “Power Plant”, the song sounds a lot more fun then I imagine a power plant to be. This game is going to be fucking awesome. [via Bionic Commando Blog]

Today, I receive this (click to view it at a higher resolution): I have no idea what it means, I really can’t think what game this would be referring too, but it links here.…

  • Venetica Announced For 360 And PC

    Venetica is an upcoming RPG by Deck 13 and DTP Entertainment. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of either of them before, but apparently Deck 13 is a big deal in Germany. In the game you play as death’s daughter, which maybe could be cool but also could end up incredibly lame. The graphics don’t…

  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King Review

    Before I actually begin this review I think I should make it clear that I really didn’t like Crystal Chronicles. As a fan of the more “traditional” Final Fantasy games, I found Crystal Chronicles to be extremely lacking, just a half-assed attempt to put a “Final Fantasy” title on the Gamecube. So, when I heard…

  • Etrian Odyssey II MEGA Contest

    A few weeks ago there was an Etrian Odyssey II contest where you could win the games imported 3-disc soundtrack. That was pretty awesome, but not quite awesome enough. Now there’s another, better, more radical contest. Basically, you write a blog entry on Destructoid.com about “your most memorable experience associated with the series.” Like, basically…

  • Lost Planet: Extreme Condition COLONIES EDITION Akrid Hunt Video

    [flashvideo filename=”wp-content/uploads/2008/05/Akrid_Hunt.flv” /] Some players control the bugs and try to kill the people, other players shoot at the bugs. I, for one, am intrigued. Actually, could be a pretty cool game mode. I remember in one of the Unreal Tournaments they had a mode where players could all fight against progressively harder waves of…
