Today, we picked up some information that could be a hint as to what Nintendo will not be revealing at this year’s E3. For anyone who was hoping we’d see a new Mario title with Bowser as the game’s main baddie, think again. As it turns out, Bowser has gotten out of the bad guy […]

[So, I’ve heard that some of you GameSetWatch readers actually work in the game industry, blimey. So you might care about the call for submissions for GDC 2009. The GDC advisory board actually grades and discusses papers individually, and there’s a new process this year to make it easier to do a brief synopsis […]

Never enough Chocobo: two new Chocobo DS titles in the works for Japan
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
So yeah, I like chocobo. A lot. Sure, they’re cute, but the incarnation of Chocobo that you know from Chocobo Tales and Chocobo’s Dungeon has more than just the adorable factor going on — his sense of positivity and determination is admirable to me. He’s just a good guy, and I never tire of playing […]

We’re already into July, so EA Sports’ August 12th launch of Madden NFL 09 on every current platform known to man (and some unknown to this man) is right around the corner. Accordingly, EA announced the game’s 26-song soundtrack this morning; it is said to feature “a multi-genre roster of superstar acts and soon-to-breakthrough artists.”

This may be the second weirdest forgotten game I ever talk about. The demo for Metal Gear Solid on the PS1 is not really a game in and of itself, and the full title it demos is nowhere near forgotten. And who has nostalgia for a demo, anyway? It would seem, for all intents and […]
