Kind of reminds me of Homefront, mixing conventional combat with a bit of scy fy. Is this game in the same universe of the Modern warfare series?

Sci-fi.



Aww, no lazor beamz? Pew pew!

So, who else is getting Harley Quinn's Revenge for Batman Arkham City?



In other news, Nintendo patched Mario Kart 7 on the 3DS to stop the track shortcut glitches being used online. This is the first time that a Nintendo game has been patched!

Metro Last light live action trailer:



Ok, seriously, this game deserves high sells. It's not aways that we see such an convincing and realistic atmosphere. A cool thing people might notice in this trailer is that the russian officer that takes the baby looks a lot like Artion step father. Nice detail.

Nintendo is planning to release paid DLC for Mario games.

Uh-oh.

So, soon after releasing its first ever patch for one of its games (Mario Kart 7), Nintendo has decided to embrace paid DLC. I don't know how Nintendo will approach DLC; some companies do it well, and others don't. I'm just hoping that Nintendo won't be lured to the dark side.

If done right, Nintendo's DLC could extend the life of their games by weeks, maybe even months. If they do it wrong, we'll be cursing disc-locked content and paying for half-finished games. A company's name can very quickly become mud if they're seen to be ripping off their own fans. Just ask Capcom and Square Enix.

Please be careful, and do it right, Nintendo. We love your big titles, but our wallets aren't bottomless.

So, I finally finished Mass Effect 3 and all I have to say is.... This is the ending that warranted controversy? Huh.

In game news looks like Nintendo has found another way to take money from the fans with a new 3DS (with a bigger screen).

I'm too lazy to find the story, but I believe Iwata and Miyamoto have mentioned in the past that they don't have any interest in mandatory or story-centric DLC, but they both seem to like the idea of extending game life with it. So hopefully we don't have too much to worry about, though we'll likely see the same DLC on third-party games, like Mass Effect 3 and Arkham City AE.

From what I've heard, the only Nintendo first party title using it right now is Fire Emblem Awakening for the 3DS, and it seems to be a huge hit over in Japan right now. The game seems to allow you to buy extra 'scenarios' that exist outside the main story, which allow you to then unlock characters from past games, like Marth, Roy, Eirika, etc. If they keep using it like that, instead of going the Capcom route, I'll have nothing to complain about.

*whistles* Wow, that thing's a beast. They're probably trying to bolster the 3DS' Western sales, since everyone wants em' big over here. I'll definitely pass though, I'm still enjoying my 3DS, and my DS Phat lasted all the way till I bought my 3DS a year and a half ago. The extended battery life seems appealing, but that's not really a huge issue for me, since I can chug out ~10 hrs. with the 3D turned off and the brightness set to medium. I'll probably just ignore the inevitable iterations like I did last time.

Anyways, this was also shown on Nintendo Direct last night.

Super Smash Bros. 4 will be Co-Developed by Namco-Bandai

I'm really interested in seeing how this turns out. Sakurai and Sora are still heading it, but I really want to see what Bamco brings to the mix. We might see some of their characters in the next game, like Pac-Man or Lloyd Irving. Since Tales of Symphonia was originally a Nintendo exclusive (and still technically is in the West), I think the latter's a definite possibility.

I know lol. But hey I'm not buying it I am very happy with my regular 3DS and also I have a feeling this new 3DS won't cost 170$ it might reach 200$ or more.

Ehh, I'm happy with my launch 3DS. I'm a little surprised they didn't opt to integrate the Circle Pad Pro in the design, but I'm also glad that they didn't, as it might have risked making the original 3DS a bit redundant. The XL screens could be nicer for watching 3D movies as well.

Well, that's reassuring to hear. As long as the DLC isn't mandatory in terms of the base game, and it offers reasonable value for money, I'm happy.

It's really interesting that the new Smash Bros game will be out on 3DS AND Wii U. From what I understand, Namco is doing the bulk of the development, while Sakurai and Sora are doing the overseeing. It'll definitely be interesting to see what Namco characters they include, and what they bring in terms of fighting moves! I do wonder how they will port Smash Bros to the 3DS, though, as it does have a small screen. There were times on the Wii/GC that the action could get a bit hard to see when the level was zoomed all the way out.

Oh, and make the new Smash Bros ONLINE. Please?

So H&E folks, today the extended cut for mass effect 3 was released, and for good or ill, I'll post them here:

don't watch if you don't want to get spoiled! --Click here to view--

DESTROY ENDING



CONTROL ENDING



SYNTHESIS ENDING



And here it is the catalyst conversation ending, now allowing you to ask him a lot of things, and an interesting thing is that this also includes an fourth ending, were Shepard refuses the catalyst offers, wich leads to an pretty crappy ending if you ask me.

thoughts --Click here to view--

I have... mixed feelings about extended cut, while the endings no doubt are massively improved compared to the original crap that we got, is not truly fitting for such an epic saga such as mass effect. In short I'm happy that we got an conclusive ending wich shows that playing as a good character was worth the trouble. Though I have to say that I was very disapointed to see that there was no crew/love interest reunion with Shepard in the destroy ending, wich would be easy to make if you ask me, it's just an minute cutscene, c'mon Bioware.. oh well.

I dunno, I won't be able to get the Extended DLC until later because I'll be busy, but after playing through the game, I didn't think the endings were that bad as most people made it out to be.

[Cloud]

See, the extended cut actually wraps up the game for me.

The Control Ending IMHO is the best one. Because they get to rebuild with Shepard watching over them.

[alexander]

I guess wich one was better depends on opinion. I still like destroy better, and see how the galaxy manage prosper without the reapers is really inspiring. And seeing all those reapers falling down, it was awesome. I still regret the loss of the geth tough.
