Captain Obvious: Naruto: Rise of a Ninja sequel in development
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | 
Leave a Comment
When Naruto: Rise of a Ninja was released last year for the Xbox 360 I was initially pretty skeptical. After seeing the way the Naruto franchise was being whored out with sequel after sequel — very quickly becoming the new DBZ in that regard — I just assumed it would end up being a half-assed, […]

GameSetLinks: Weapons For Benny
Category: | Leave a Comment
Ah yes, GameSetLinks returns for the weekend, headed up by some fun and games about Too Human, ahead of its release - seems like issuing a challenge was a bit red rag/bull-ish for Internet crazies.

The above video is really short so I won’t say much. I’ll just say it’s a Madden game and a guy is providing some exceptional commentary.
Merry 4th of July weekend! Time to get Destructainmented. After the jump, it’s Random Robot Intermission and the Showbiz Pizza Band performing Usher’s "Love in This Club". Next up, a […]

I’m here covering the Shin Megami Tensei panel at Anime Expo here in Los Angeles (more coverage on that later), but I wanted to drop in now and say that Persona 4 does have a US launch date now. I’m so happy!

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
According to the boys at PSPFanboy, the Phantasy Star Portable official website was updated today with some decent information. The free demo, scheduled to release in Japan on July 14, is going to be a bit hefty. At a whopping 301 MB, it will provide players early access to both the Story Mode and online […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
"Do you love to play Super Mario Brothers on the Classic Nintendo System? Do you like to get tagged from behind while you do it?"
That’s not exactly the kind of phrase one would expect to read on a Saturday night, but if you’re perusing Craiglist, then you might just stumble across this cheeky invitation to […]

Dynasty Warriors developers counting down to new DS game
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Koei’s in-house Dynasty Warriors development team, Omega Force, has launched a Web site promoting a new mystery game for the Nintendo DS. Of course, we use the term "mystery" loosely as even without the above teaser image, one wouldn’t have to think too long and hard before guessing it will involve medieval asian soldiers in […]

A little note from Persona this week: “I had a friend do a comic for me this week while I was at Anime […]
