Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009Stuffed into the aisle-side of the rather tight-knit Ignition Entertainment booth were a couple of kiosks holding one of the more artistic looking games for the Nintendo Wii platform. Muramasa: The Demon Blade is the second game from the makers of Odin Sphere to carry a 2-D side-scrolling aesthetic and hand-painted look to both [...]

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009The Tecmo booth was sparsely populated one by the time I had flown by, although to be fair to the company, it was in the last hour of that day. In a frustrating sort of hurry, I tossed a glance around the company’s offerings for something worthy of the Elder-Geek crowd, and settled on the [...]

Scribblenauts
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009Beneath an opaque, wall-sized banner showing an over-exuberant model having too much fun with his Nintendo DS, lay a trio of unassuming kiosks boasting one of the most enjoyable and open-ended hand-held games of this generation, Scribblenauts. Unprofessional of me to pass judgment at this point in the development cycle, I know, but a simple [...]
No CommentsTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up
Monday, June 22nd, 2009Thankfully able to avoid the four assumedly lonely men dressed up in Halloween-store Turtle costumes, I landed a quick session with the reptile-on-reptile Wii-brawler, TMNT: Smash Up in the waning E3 hours. As if the abbreviation of the famous “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” moniker isn’t enough of an indication, the game takes its visual [...]

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009By Gavin Greene
Admittedly a spot of guilty pleasure on my part, but I have always found the joys of watching friends embarrass themselves in their attempts to sing to be excruciatingly humorous, and with an entire disc devoted to the best voice in the history of rock and roll, (not to mention one of the [...]
Final Fantasy: Dissidia
Wednesday, June 17th, 2009The most uneasily anticipated game coming out for the PSP this year had a big show over at its Square Enix booth, but with the immense lines attached to each game playable there, I settled for returning to the Playstation area later in the week to find the single modest kiosk featuring the game and [...]

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009By Gavin Greene
Screw Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Capcom vs. Tatsunoko, and all the rest, I’m a Tekken man. Have been since the arcade days, and the series hasn’t let up since. While entering the tournament during E3 this year would have appeased the competitive prick within me, it would have deterred too [...]
Brütal Legend
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009A title that had been anticipated for Tim Schafer’s name alone, I had unfortunately missed any interview opportunities with a member of the game’s development staff and can only discuss the demonstration levels on display.
