IGN love Sakura Samurai but the other review today doesn't

"Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword is a gorgeous game, and a brilliant addition to the 3DS library. The art style and music transport you to another world, and the combat is more than engaging. The enemies are also varied and require your full attention to defeat, making for a deep experience and keeping Sakura Samurai from becoming just a generic, samurai-themed brawler. The RPG elements - care of the items, sword upgrades and delightfully populated villages - further enrich the experience. If you’re a 3DS owner, don’t hesitate - download Sakura Samurai now, and begin your journey to Dark Moon Castle."

I will start ME1 today. Any advice?

Set aside lots of time, turn off your phone, and go into Options and turn off Film Grain and Motion Blur. Then, prepare for one hell of a game that everyone loved except for Shame-us Blackley, the Bioware hater.

I've been playing No One Lives Forever 2: a Spy in H.A.R.M.'s way. It holds up very well for a 10 year old game. The gameplay is fun and varied with its mix of stealth, action and very different settings and objectives, it's basically GoldenEye 007 meets Austin Powers. It has some funny moments, though the acting/directing/writing/etc aren't quite there to make it a genuine comedy. A new sequel with decent production values and the same sort of gameplay intentions could be pretty amazing.

I think I'm nearing the end, it has had a couple bad levels (mostly they didn't allow for stealth and the gunplay isn't great in that case) but overall it's great.

Edit: yep, game over. Was good. Hope for a sequel sometime this decade.

You and me both. Who would own the rights to the game now?

Really hoping it's Monolith, and it's the next thing they're doing after Gotham City Imposters.

Played more RE Revelations.

At first I thought it was traditional REmake type game as that is what the demo is like and most of the ship section. But the other episodes have all the gung ho RE4/5 type stuff you could want, tons of ammo, larger areas, faster movement, grenades and stuff. You get a good mix of old school and modern RE in this game.

Also the demo will really fuck you up if you played it a lot like me. LOL When you play that section in the game you start on the other side of the level and everything happens similarly but differently which messes with your mind. Also the aliasing is much better in the game compared to the demo, the same area looks noticibly cleaner in the retail game in 3D then the demo did.

The episodic structure is a double edged sword. On the one hand you lose that one big RE world feeling. On the other hand you get new characters, new and more diverse locations and even a better told story that isn't just localised to the area you are currently in.

There are a couple of frame rate hiccups in the game but nothing noteworthy or enough to worry about. So far there has only been one minor puzzle, the lock picking bit. The game is pretty great and the 3D really adds a lot. I tried turning it off a few times for better frame rate and aliasing but it seems so much more vivid and alive in 3D.

Just how badly did uDraw 360/PS3 hurt THQ, anyway?


THQ is going to have a hard time offloading its remaining inventory of uDraw video game tablets.


The accessory, which debuted with a big marketing splash for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this past holiday after a healthy Wii debut the year prior, failed to ignite consumer interest, resulting in a sell-through of fewer than half the units THQ manufactured.


Its failure was a surprise to the company, given its healthy Wii sales and the results of two independent studies that suggested the company was addressing a sizable untapped market by expanding its uDraw lineup.


"We were confident that uDraw would resonate again this holiday, given last year's robust sell-through," CEO Brian Farrell told investors in a conference call on Thursday.


"Our confidence was misplaced."

The company's overestimation is staggering. In all, THQ has sold through 1 million units to stores, many of which are still there, often in the bargain bin. That leaves it stuck with 1.4 million more left unsold in its warehouses.


The result of this misstep, according to the company, is a reduction of $100 million dollars in sales for its crucial holiday quarter, $80 million of that directly related to its excess inventory of uDraw hardware, and $20 million related to its software and a hit taken on selling some of its inventory at a loss.


In terms of income, the company attributes over $30 million of its $54.6 million operating loss just to the uDraw.



Hardware production has of course ceased, and software support for the device seems to be dead as well. THQ says it has developed a plan to move that remaining inventory through retail channels, but other than that, the company has "no other remaining commitments with respect to uDraw," according to Farrell.


"We were looking at uDraw as a bridge to this core and digital future, and that bridge turned out to be a plank that we walked off of," said Farrell.
