Two Worlds II Implements A Jarring Form Of DRM

Combating piracy is almost impossible, but developers can try to circumvent it as best as they can. Sometimes developers take it a few leaps too far, and the actual buyers get the brunt of it. SouthPeak Games has already gained the ire of gamers as an intrusive form of DRM rears its ugly head.

3DS in NYC Previews: Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition

Probably the easiest game to discuss that was playable is SSFIV 3D. It's very literally exactly the same as the console versions you are likely already familiar with. The same 35 characters (still my Ibuki, of course!) and all the moves you know. The characters all come unlocked from the get-go, and each character has an alternate costume that you've seen, bought, or fought against in the console version.

Bulletstorm Demo Impressions

First person shooters are like action movies: they’re flashy, lacking in substance, and you can’t walk down a hallway without tripping on one these days. Occasionally, you’ll find a Matrix or a 300 in titles like BioShock or Deus Ex, but the majority of them are your typical Van Damme or Stallone flicks. Bulletstorm, at first glance, would appear to be the latter. It’s flashy to the point of comedy, but carries a distinct humor and a unique gimmick that you will not find in most shooters. With the release of the demo this week on the PSN and XBLA, I sat down with the game and tried to determine if the insane people over at People Can Fly have a winner on their hands, or just another short-lived firecracker.

Sentinel and Hsien-Ko Confirmed For Marvel Vs Capcom 3

Robotic nemesis of the mutants and lower tier characters alike has returned, along with an undead Darkstalker. Sentinel and Hsien-ko joining the cast of Marvel Vs Capcom 3. Leaked via a German magazine picture, Marvel character Sentinel is returning to spam mini-versions of himself all over the screen. Wondering why his name isn't on the screen? It's because he's Player 2 and the lifebar is on the other side. If you tilt it just right, you can see a "S". At the moment, it's unknown if his playstyle has changed or if he will gain the coveted Mango coloring that fans are pining for.

3DS in NYC: Combat of Giants Dinosaurs 3D Preview

Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D is an excellent launch window game to get kids interested itching to get a 3DS early. It's a combination of game types. When you start up, you can choose which type of dinosaur from a few different kinds: predators, hunters, chargers or defenders. Each family of dinosaurs has a different combative advantage over another. I was feelin' rather predatorial this time around. You could also customize your dinosaur fully in tons of different colors and stripe colors, etc. It's your very own rather personalized piece of the Jurassic world.
