We got not one, not two, but three Dragon Ball Z: Origins trailers to satisfy your needs. Luckily, you don’t have to wait much longer. You can pick up the game for Nintendo DS November 4th. More videos after the jump.
Ever since the beta for Littlebigplanet hit, we’ve seen numerous level designs, some good, some not so good. From classic Mario remakes to re-imagining of the humongous spectacles found in Shadow of the Colossus. Heck, even Tristan is a game designer in the making. But simply from an engineering standpoint, I think this is by far and away the best yet. A user created a real-time working calculator that accurately adds and subtracts numbers. The levels is said to use 610 magnetic swtiches, 500 wires, and 430 pistons. I didn’t see what the big deal was until the camera panned up. That’s when my mouth hit the floor.
Konami has announced a second expansion pack for Metal Gear Online. The pack, titled MEME Expansion, provides new content in the form of maps characters, skills, tournament lobby, and more. While no official release date or price was given, Konami says you can expect this to be available for download “later this year.” Are any of you actually still playing this? Full release with pictures after the jump!
Condoms. Seriously, that’s what the Boingz look like: jelly-filled condoms.
Last time we checked in with High Voltage at PAX, they had only just gotten their hands on Wii MotionPlus. So I wasn’t too surprised to see that there really wasn’t much being done with it at the Nintendo Media Summit – but my proverbial socks were knocked off when I saw how much they’d done with the graphics in that short amount of time.
If you happened to miss this weekend’s Brickcon 2008 in Seattle, as we unfortunately did, you missed the appearance of the “Zombie Apocafest” project. It was one part Left 4 Dead, one part The Big Lebowski and two parts LEGO. It was also 6.8 parts awesome, with a massive zombie-filled scene of Left 4 Dead-style destruction, featuring copious amounts of LEGO gore.
Well, Japan has had this one for almost a year now and it’s finally North America’s turn to get their hands on it. Star Ocean: First Departure, which is a remake of the first Star Ocean game, will be hitting the states on October 21st. The game looks pretty solid and if you’re a Star Ocean fan, you should be seriously considering picking this one up. galleryPost('so1006', 3, 'Star Ocean Gallery');
A while back we posted the first Prince of Persia developer diary. Today we got the second. This new one focuses on one of the bosses you will fight as well as Ahriman’s corruption that’s spread across the world. Prince of Persia will hit Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on December 2nd.
Sega is going to sit on this game ’til it hatches. We’ve seen screen shots, we have videos; and if anyone can give me an accurate count of times “black and white and red all over” has been used to describe MadWorld, I’ll send you a cookie.
But nobody besides PR reps is allowed to touch the freaking game. Lucky for me, I know one of these PR reps – Mabel Chung gave me my second job as a tester at Sega way back in the day. She might not cut me any breaks with the no-hands-on rule, but she will give me a reasonable explanation (which you have to click the jump to hear):
