What determines somebody’s “best-looking” game on a system is a subjective thing. Some will prefer clean lines, others copious effects. Me, I can do without either if a game just has great art.
Here’s a new trailer for the upcoming Ni No Kuni for the PS3. The more I see of this game, the more I clench my fists, grind my teeth and try and will it into already being out. And in English.
The modders at Oz Workshop have achieved something remarkable: recreated something in Minecraft that is not mildly amusing, but genuinely awe-inspiring.
Here’s a Monday morning factoid to shock you all out of your stupor – if you don’t like Studio Ghibli, you’re dead inside. You most likely take no joy in any aspect of life and there’s a tinny, rusting machine where your heart used to be. That’s no way to live. That’s no way to live at all. Anyways, this vid – which attempts to recreate some of the stunning locales featured in Ghibli movies – is probably my favourite Minecraft video of all time.

Ni No Kuni, the Nintendo DS title from animator Studio Ghibli and Professor Layton developer Level-5, is out in Japan. Those outside The Land of the Rising Sun are out in the cold. This video might make things all better.
