I don’t think I need to tell anyone twice that has seen at least one screenshot of this game that the game is truly an artistic masterpiece of this generation. Le crème de le crème of artistic gaming splendor. This is clearly Muramasa’s weapon of choice, but what other spears did developer Vanillaware decide to toss your way? Well, what IS Muramasa besides fodder for the games as art debate? It’s a 2D Action RPG exclusive to the Wii, but daring enough to scrap any type of possibly fatal motion controls, so there are no gimmicks included in this package. (Thank goodness.) There are two playable characters in Muramasa, which romanticizes Japanese folk culture through and through. The characters, the backgrounds, the clothing styles.

Fort Zombie is one of the latest in the onslaught of the ever popular zombie games phenomena. It is what looks like a Dead Rising (yet less zombies) and Zombie Apocalypse (but less repugnant children) mashup (one good game, one not so good) only you will be working with your crew to protect your Alamo after a little supply gathering. It’s a little more thoughtful than your run of the mill zombie title in that you must actually prepare for the apocalypse by preparing proper nourishment, fuel, weaponry, and more before the horde heads your way — that is where some RPG elements will kick in. Taking place in Piety, Indiana, Fort Zombie should be available before the end of the year for PC holding a $14.99 price tag. We all usually are very welcoming to games with tales (or lack of tales) of the undead in video game culture, and adding some RPG elements to the mix might make it worth sneaking a peek at once it launches. Feel free to check out the gallery of screenshots below of Fort Zombie, developed by Kerberos Productions and published by Paradox Interactive.
