The Tekken Revolution Starts In June

First it was Capcom locking DLC behind Marvel vs Capcom 3. Then Sega with Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown. Both moves were received with some heated debate as to their worth. Finally Tekken has shown up on the field to try something truly revolutionary. They are going to go free to play on June 11th with Tekken Revolution. This newest iteration will be a PS3 exclusive. Why you ask? “Ask Microsoft yourself. I already asked them about free to play [...]

 

Tales of Symphonia Chronicles is Planned for the West

Great news from the east! Namco Bandai has released a trailer today detailing their plans for their HD repackage of Tales of Symphonia and Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World (now dubbed Tales of Symphonia Chronicles). Coming sometime in 2014, Namco will grace us with what many have argued is the best in the franchise. I’m not sure if that’s just the nostalgia talking, but we’ll all be able to find out when the collection hits PS3′s next [...]

New Digimon Trademark Suggests Digimon World Re:Digitize May Come West

Digimon World is a series that started on the Playstation back in 1999, that took place within the universe of the popular Digimon franchise. Last year the series was rebooted for the PSP with Digimon World Re:Digitize. The new game featuring artwork from one of my favorite artists, Suzuhito Yasuda (Yozakura Quartet, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor) was popular enough to get an upcoming, enhanced 3DS port titled Digimon World Re:Digitize Decode. Bit of a mouthful yeah? Namco Bandai has [...]

Tales of Xillia Coming To States in August

The Tales series received a resurgence of critical and commercial acclaim back in Japan with the release of Tales of Xillia. Using a slightly updated new art style and a different narrative focus, Tales of Xillia proved to be one of the most popular Tales game in recent memory. Today, Namco Bandai announced that Tales of Xillia will be arriving on North American shores August 6th for the Playstation 3. I for one am looking forward to this as Tales [...]

[News] Project X Zone To Be Localized

Looks like the awesome crossover, Project X Zone, is going to be coming out in North America, Australia, Europe, and Latin America thanks to Namco Bandai. We’ll take full credit for that, though. Yep. All us. Seriously, it’s always great to see good looking games from Japan getting localization in English. Although apparently, Project X Zone won’t have its voice acting dubbed over, only the text will be in English. In a sense it’s good, there won’t be any ridiculous dubbing. Expect [...]

[News] Ni No Kuni: Behind The Scenes With Joe Hisaishi

The European division of Namco Bandai Games has been posting up some behind-the-scenes videos concerning the upcoming Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch, and the latest installment (brought to my attention via Crunchyroll) is all about Joe Hisaishi’s work in the production. He briefly discusses his creative process in which he reveals his enthusiasm had him create 21 songs in just one week (that monster), among other things. Towards the end, he even drops a little nugget saying [...]

[News] New Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 Trailer is Sexy

I know many of you are not Naruto fans, that’s okay. That still doesn’t forgive you from looking at a few trailers for the new Naruto game. Why? Well because cel shaded graphics doesn’t get better than this and that’s pretty much fact.  Sure the 3D Naruto’s don’t really play much like I’d want, but they sure do look exactly like everything I’d want from a Naruto title. With this taking place during the 4th Ninja war, you know it [...]

[News] Project X Zone TGS Gameplay Tempts Me to Import

Looks like Namco Bandai is kicking off the TGS 2012 party early with this new juicy demo footage of Project X Zone. I’m truly tempted to import a Japanese 3DS and a limited first-press edition of the game just to be among the first to enjoy the privilege of playing (and reviewing) it. Life’s too short, baby, gotta live it up!
