January 25, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

PlayStation are running a competition – a catch the killer competition – which starts tomorrow. They’re encouraging people to tweet about it using the hashtag #heavyrain4days so if you see that starting to whisk by your Twitter stream; that’s what is going on. To play you need to be old enough and you need to […]

English language trailer for Final Fantasy XIII

January 14, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are a number of good things about this trailer; the Leona Lewis song isn’t one of them though. I’m more interested in the character dialog than a reality TV show star’s mantra in the background. They need to turn it down. It’s also worth noting that, shockingly, Final Fantasy XIII won’t be exclusive on […]

The Metal Gear Solid movie is cancelled

January 11, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Bad news for the legion of Metal Gear Solid fans comes from GeekTyrant today. The Metal Gear Solid live-action film is dead. Producer Mike De Luca said the live-action was unlikely to progress; “I don’t think it’s going to move forward because I got the sense that there may not be enough of a coordinated […]

No more Final Fantasy?

January 8, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There may be no more Final Fantasy, not as we know the series, after Final Fantasy XII. After having already publicly discussed taking development of the next Final Fantasy away from Japan and giving it to Western developers Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada says the whole series needs something new. Once again we can turn […]

Lengthy Ar Tonelico III trailer hits the web

January 7, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is an awfully long – 4:30 plus – trailer for the forthcoming JRPG Ar Tonelico. It’s also quite loud so I’d nudge your volume downwards. The trailer shows off glimpses of most aspects of the game; the cut-scenes, costumes, battle stances, attacks and even wandering around.

Jumping loop bug in Final Fantasy XIII

January 5, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are so many mixed signals about Final Fantasy XIII. My head’s starting to spin. First off the game got glowing reviews – perfect, near perfect. Then game players start to grumble. Turns out that the game, although large and long, is awfully linear. You get lots of cut scenes and lots to look at […]

Buy a PS3 and trash everything else

January 4, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A pretty funky ad from Venezuela for the PlayStation 3 here. It gets your attention by trashing a lot of expensive looking stuff. Lots of broken glass. There’s a giant slingshot – in fact I think the ad is called “slingshot”. Oh, and there’s a PS3 too!

LittleBigPlanet does Pirates of the Caribbean

December 16, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It isn’t just that this might be one of the cutest expansions of LittleBigPlanet yet that The Pirates of the Caribbean pack deserves a post. Although it’s certainly very cute; especially our Sack Boy Davy Jones. As it happens this expansion includes a new building material – water! My first thought was “cool!” and then […]

Ar Tonelico 3 trailer complete with funky music

October 25, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It takes a while for this Ar Tonelico 3 trailer to get going – although it’s well worth the wait when it does – however the impressive music kicks in straight away so make sure you’ve speakers on. In many ways I get Final Fantasy vibes from this game but I’d accept its pretty hard […]
