PS3 Bundle

Including MGS4 and Killzone 2 with the PS3 does absolutely nothing for me. I'd much rather play PSN Q*bert (yes, I'm serious) and GT5 (full version). Until then, no deal.

It's still $400?

I like the bundle but owning two consoles already and being able to play most multiformat games on 360 already makes it a hard sell.

I would look into getting PS3 for Blu-ray and a few exclusives so it would have to be pretty damn cheap for me to consider it.

 I'd pay $200 for one, but that's about it; I would consider paying $250 IF they included PS2 BC. I still play games on an SDTV, so Blu-Ray does nothing for me, and there's way more games that interest me on 360 right now. I'd love to be able to play GT5, Ratchet & Clank, and LittleBigPlanet someday, though.

That's pretty much what I'm waiting for - BC.  I have a stack of PS2 games I cannot play and I'll be damned if I buy a third PS2 and a PS3.  Bluray is nice and all, but the rumormill has been expecting to see $99 Bluray players come out this holiday season, so the PS3 isn't really the best way to get one anymore if that happens.  Plus I've never paid more than $250 for a console.  I don't plan on it anytime soon.

Dragon Quest IX too hard?  Ooooooh bring it.  Fucking bring it.  I loved DQ VIII but there's no doubt it was a touch on the easy side.  If they were serious about making it a "spiritual successor" to DQ III they were going to need to ramp up the difficulty and by god they've actually done it.  Sweet.  I look foward to countless hours of frustration and eventual victories that actually feel like accomplishments.

LucasArts Releasing Loom, The Dig, Star Wars, Indiana Jones To Steam

After years of decreasing support for its older titles, LucasArts today announced it will be releasing through Steam ten of its games across numerous genres, franchises, and developers.

Included amongst the planned digital releases for July 8 are original adventure games Loom and The Dig, as well as numerous Indiana Jones and Star Wars titles.

No pricing plans were included in the statement, and the Steam storefront does not yet list the games in its "Coming Soon" section.

The titles to be released are the original adventure games Loom and The Dig; the Star Wars games Battlefront II (Pandemic), Republic Commando, and Starfighter; LEGO Indiana Jones and adventure games Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade; action game Armed and Dangerous (Planet Moon); and theme park sim Thrillville: Off the Rails (Frontier).

LucasArts recently licensed its Monkey Island property to Telltale Games to create a
new episodic series, which begins tomorrow, and the company is also developing its own graphical remake of the original Secret of Monkey Island adventure game.

Those actions make today's announcement the latest in a series of projects from LucasArts demonstrating a desire to capitalize on its decades of past game development, which traditionally relied heavily on internally-created franchises but which in recent years has focused much more heavily on Star Wars- and Indiana Jones-related titles.

"This effort is going to make it possible to introduce a whole new generation of gamers to LucasArts’ classic games," said LucasArts president Darrell Rodriguez. "It also gives more people a chance to play our games by making them available long after they’ve disappeared from store shelves. We hope our fans are as excited as we are about our plans and we can’t wait to share what’s coming next. This is just the beginning."

The company has progressively removed older games from its website and online store, leading to frequently high prices for its titles on the secondhand market -- particularly its adventure games.

This also represents LucasArts' first ever support of Valve's Steam digital distribution service; the company had until now been one of the few significant publishers not to sign on.

The press release claimed "future back-catalog announcements" are forthcoming.

If I had a normal laptop and not a hulking beast that crushes my legs each time I use it, I would have bought all these graphic adventures on disc already.

OMG ... dolphin spaceship model is the best DLC ever!!  so exciting ... especially if it's to coincide with some major update on the progress of the development of pikmin 3!

as of this morning i am the proud owner of the wii motion plus attachment and tiger!  i haven't tried tiger yet so i can't give any impressions, for the time being i'm trying to get used to playing animal crossing with a slightly heavier remote with that condom on.  will play tiger in a little bit, but i'm thinking of starting off with frisbee golf as the actual golf may be intimidating for someone with no golfing (real or videogame) experience like me.

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

Why is the Wii Sport Resort Review not big news?

*looks at the reviewer

Oh my bad it's IGN AU!

Check this out

What else is there? Well, we're sorry to report that the event that you'd assume would probably be the best fit for MotionPlus is a big letdown. Yes, we're talking about Swordplay. The control feels good in the sense that your movements correspond to responsive action onscreen, but the gameplay relies on high speed waggling and luck far more than skill, and the control isn't actually 1:1, which means it's less intuitive than it could be. So how does it work? Want to raise the 'sword' up to block an attack? You can't just raise it up, you have to hold B to defend, which will then allow you to position it horizontally above your head. 

When not holding B, you're attacking and there's no collision detection with your opponent's sword unless he's blocking. Even when he is blocking, the detection is simplistic – a horizontal block will deflect a vertical attack and vice versa. Hit an opponent's sword when he's blocking and you'll be momentarily stunned, giving him a window to get a hit in.

What IGN AU wants is not possible to block an attack like that you need to be able to block the players movement. What would happen if the sword is blocked, but you as a player keep moving? 

Maybe next time, when we have Wii Sport HapticMaster, where you connect your Wiimote and motionplus to the HapticMaster!

1:1 swordfighting is a tricky subject because you have to balance controls with making the game fun and not overly difficult.

I don't know how many of you have tried real sword fighting, either with sticks or tubes, but there are so many variables it's often hard to block consistently without getting your ass kicked. Red Steel 2 has you holding a button and either holding the controller vertically or horizontally too.

I think it's a good comprise to make on the whole.

UFC threatens to ban EA MMA fighters?

Last November, a number of news outlets reported that welterweight contender Jon Fitch and his fellow American Kickboxing Academy members were cut from the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Reportedly at cause for the move was a licensing disagreement between Fitch and the UFC on THQ's UFC Unleashed 2009, in which the fighter refused to sign away his name and likeness rights in a lifetime contract for the game.

While that issue ultimately came to a peaceful resolution, the UFC again appears to be strong-arming the mixed martial arts talent pool over the fighting organization's deal with THQ. As spotted by enthusiast blog MMA Scraps, a Mixed Martial Arts Underground forum poster with the username Golden Boy said yesterday that the UFC was prepared to ban all unsigned fighters who agree to be a part of Electronic Arts' upcoming MMA title.

"I hear that all [MMA] managers were informed that if any of their clients not currently under contract with the UFC sign to be a part of the EA game, the[y] will forever be banned for fighting in the UFC," Golden Boy wrote. Later in the thread, a poster using the handle KenP--who MMA Scraps identifies as notable MMA agent Ken Pavia--substantiated this claim, writing, "It's true. And they told me [they] want the word out."

LucasArts Releasing Loom, The Dig, Star Wars, Indiana Jones To Steam

After years of decreasing support for its older titles, LucasArts today announced it will be releasing through Steam ten of its games across numerous genres, franchises, and developers.

Included amongst the planned digital releases for July 8 are original adventure games Loom and The Dig, as well as numerous Indiana Jones and Star Wars titles.

No pricing plans were included in the statement, and the Steam storefront does not yet list the games in its "Coming Soon" section.

The titles to be released are the original adventure games Loom and The Dig; the Star Wars games Battlefront II (Pandemic), Republic Commando, and Starfighter; LEGO Indiana Jones and adventure games Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade; action game Armed and Dangerous (Planet Moon); and theme park sim Thrillville: Off the Rails (Frontier).

LucasArts recently licensed its Monkey Island property to Telltale Games to create a
new episodic series, which begins tomorrow, and the company is also developing its own graphical remake of the original Secret of Monkey Island adventure game.

Those actions make today's announcement the latest in a series of projects from LucasArts demonstrating a desire to capitalize on its decades of past game development, which traditionally relied heavily on internally-created franchises but which in recent years has focused much more heavily on Star Wars- and Indiana Jones-related titles.

"This effort is going to make it possible to introduce a whole new generation of gamers to LucasArts’ classic games," said LucasArts president Darrell Rodriguez. "It also gives more people a chance to play our games by making them available long after they’ve disappeared from store shelves. We hope our fans are as excited as we are about our plans and we can’t wait to share what’s coming next. This is just the beginning."

PSP2 features quad core graphics chip - rumour

According to a report by Eurogamer.es, PowerVR technology from Imagination Technologies will form the basis of the still in-development PlayStation Portable 2, writes Digital Foundry.

Imagination Technologies was rumoured to be working with Sony on the PSP2 last November, when the company announced it had stuck a deal with a "major consumer electronics company".

The site claims to have information from insider sources stating that a quad core iteration of the low-power SGX543MP chip, codenamed Hydra, will be present in the next generation handheld, not to be confused with the forthcoming PSPgo.

The chip itself appears to be very close to the enhanced GPU experts say resides within the iPhone 3GS, providing a generational leap in performance over older PowerVR MBX processors found in the previous models.

The same technology is also found in select netbooks such as the Dell Mini 12, as part of the new low power Poulsbo chipset. The single core version of the chip has been demonstrated at CES running Quake 3 Arena at 30FPS.

The main difference is that the SGX543MP is a multicore processor, with anything up to 16 cores available. According to the original report, PSP2 opts for a quad configuration offering notional specs of 133 million polygons per second, and 4Gpixels/sec fillrate, assuming that Hydra operates at the chip's low-end of 200MHz (higher speed variants are also available, presumably for desktop use).

While specs like this are always subject to interpretation, these figures are a ballpark match for the original Xbox. However, PowerVR's tech includes tile-based deferred rendering, which should provide a performance boost.

Also of interest is the fact that Imagination Technologies itself describes the chip as a GP-GPU, meaning it has the ability to operate as both CPU and graphics processor in one, similar to projects being worked on by Intel and AMD. It may well be that PSP2 will centralise all of its processing into a single chip, thus saving power and providing other efficiency savings from a programming perspective (lightning fast interaction between game logic and graphics, for example).

Wii Sports Resort island is a character

Nintendo's star thinker Shigeru Miyamoto has revealed that the island in Wii Sports Resort is a character, and we will see it time and time again across games spanning many different genres.

"I had been thinking about the Island Concept in one form or another for more than 10 years," reveals Miyamoto during an Iwata Asks interview on Wii.com.

"One part of Nintendo's business has been creating a whole host of characters which we have then licensed out. But I've always thought, seeing as we are a games company, that in addition to characters resembling people, why couldn't we also turn the actual stages of games into characters?" he recalls. "And also licensing it out as a franchise."

Miyamoto says Nintendo has discussed the idea for a "long time", and that the Wii Fit locale of Wuhu Island concept is "more or less the same".

"We really polished up the island, turned it into a resort and actually made the location into a kind of character. This will then lead to a range of island series," explains Miyamoto. "You could have adventure games, role-playing games, city-building simulation games... It will be fun to see all the ideas that we can come up with, won't it?

"We thought it would be a fun idea to have a location that everyone knows and then have all sorts of stuff going on there," he adds. "It would mean that players would already know the town like the back of their hands by the time they came to buy the next adventure game."

Wii Sports Resort launches here on 24th July and showcases the new Wii MotionPlus accessory

Mario Galaxy 720p shots.

This is what it looks like on my SDTV Sony Trinitron. There's barely any difference to me. The problem is if you play it on an HD set. MG holds up better than most games with upscaling problems but the colours are dulled, the sharpness lowered and you see jaggies.

- Drift won’t really happen in Red Steel 2, also pointing at the screen a lot so could be recalibrating secretly - Not 1:1 either
- Matt a big sucker for frame rate in certain types of games
- Doesn’t look like the Wii will be seeing a Metal Gear game anytime soon but wouldn’t rule it out completely, maybe we’ll get an old game
- Have to write for several audiences in reviews which is why there are statements such as “If Wii is your only console…” - when you’re reviewing something it’s about context and comparing it to something else
- Official HD Wii hasn’t been announced, there’s been speculation, it’s common sense, Matt thinks it’s inevitable
- Animales de la Muerte hasn’t been scrapped but in some sort of werid state of purgatory - High Voltage didn’t know what to do with the game
- For WiiWare, Matt recommends starting with World of Goo, LostWinds, Tetris Party for WiiWare
- The Conduit vs. The Grinder in this stage of development - looks nicer, multiplayer ideas sound more ambitious - First impression of The Grinder is that it’s original, looks promising, already more superior than The Conduit, online mode will be much improved - More optimistic about The Grinder than they were for The Conduit
