A new episode of Clueless Gamer by Conan O'Brien. This time he reviews the new DC fighting game, Injustice: Gods Among Us.
They talk about the Injustice comic, show a bit of General Zod gameplay and reveal a new costume based on the super created Conan and Bruce Tim, The Flaming C.
On a side note, those arcade sticks look mad sick. I'm a sucker for light-up accessories.
The folks over at Ready At Dawn studios and Sony Santay Monica is finally working on a new IP.
If you don't know who Ready At Dawn are, they were the studio behind the Wii port of Okami and the two God of War games on the PSP and SCE (Sony Computer Entertainment) Santa Monica handled the console entries for God of War. Now they're working on a new IP called The Order: 1886 which looks to be what I can describe as a steampunk old style London mixed with some Van Helsing and Japanese anime guns.
The trailer revealed did not show a shred of gameplay but I am guessing and hoping that this is a Third-Person shooter that has an emphasis on action and less cover. While the trailer does not show actual gameplay, the cinematics were said to done using in-game graphics rendered in real time. Not much else is known about the game but since it's the season for video game news, I'm sure we'll get an update soon.
The Order: 1886 will be a PS4 exclusive. Hopefully this will be one of those games that helps carry the console.
The game director for the Super Smash Bros. series, Masahiro Sakurai, gives us a more in-depth look at the new upcoming Super Smash Bros. Game for the 3DS and Wii U.
We get a better a better look at both versions of the game as well as the changes in the new game both visually and gameplay wise. Some older characters have updated looks and new moves to set this game appart from previous entries.
Sakurai also talks a bit about some of the new characters such as The Villager, Mega Man and the Wii Fit Trainer.
A bit of good news from this is the confirmation that both the 3DS and Wii U will have the same roster of characters but will have a few unique stages depending on which version you get. Like the 3DS will have more handheld themed stages and the Wii U will have more home console theme stages.
If you thought the inclusion of Mega Man in the next Super Smash Bros. was crazy. Wait till you see this one.
Mega Man being in the new Super Smash Bros. is super awesome but if you've followed SSB news from even back in the day, you'd know that Mega Man could have potentially made it in Super Smash Bros. Meleealong with Snake and Sonic. Snake and Sonic didn't make it due to time constraints but Mega Man had a different reason. Inafune said that he would have been glad to include Mega Man in Melee but only if Nintendo approached Capcom about it. In Snake and Sonic's case it was the opposite as Kojima was the one who approached Nintendo and SEGA was down for putting Sonic in there. In short seeing Mega Man in the new Smash Bros. is awesome but is something that we've been expecting for a long time now.
On to the real reason for this post. Nintendo is getting a bit crazy now with their games which I like and this new character for Smash Bros. is super crazy. It's the WiiFit lady. Yeah, no words can express whatever it is that we're all feeling right now.
I caught this trailer yesterday during a Square Enix live stream right before I went to bed and murder mysteries have always piqued my interest. Ghost detectives are not a new thing but I've rarely seen it done right. A teaser site for this game was put up back in February earlier this year.
The trailer didn't really show how the game would play but lucky for us Gamespot did coverage of it's gameplay. It looks to be a modern day point and click adventure game but the best comparison would be to L.A. Noire's investigation sequences. Instead of interrogation, you look into the memories of the people around you and try to piece together what exactly happened. There are said to be stealth sequences too where you have to avoid or get passed my demons who can end your ghostly life.
I like that you can actually walk through walls instead of having to open doors to get around. You are a ghost after all. Murdered: Soul suspect is set to release on PS3, PC and Xbox 360 sometime next year.
