Do you have anything to supply this week? |
Hey, guys, sorry for the wait - this bitch Irene totally took out my internet yesterday, maybe you've heard of her. Anyway, another major conference, PAX Prime, was this week, and there was much to be had in the console gaming world as well as outside! I'll be going by developer this week, just to try and make sure I don't misplace anything!
SANZARU GAMES
- Oh my god, the new footage for
Sly Cooper 4 makes me so relieved. Now officially hyped for this game.
SQUARE ENIX
-
Final Fantasy XIII-2 has a
new trailer for you to see! Sounds a lot like Final Fantasy X-2. And we all know how that went.
-
Final Fantasy Type-0, in other news, has been
delayed to October 27th for release.
- Despite the new
Deus Ex's wonderful and acclaimed performance both critically and commercially, GameStop has had to pull all PC copies of the game, and has since
apologized over the affair.
- Check out a new 3DS RPG from Squeenix in the vein of
Diablo, Heroes of Ruin.
GEARBOX STUDIOS
-
Borderlands 2 made a huge splash at PAX. Perhaps the coolest news all weekend, the group of attendees at Gearbox's panel were forced to
swear an oath of loyalty to the studio and 2K Games in exchange for a code for a physical copy of Borderlands 2 when it went gold.
- Lotta new Borderlands 2 details. All
four original characters are back, a new
gun system called Steamworks, and the world will be a
third larger than the first game's environment.

Infestation, slipped under the PAX radar this weekend, but will be released September 30th in Europe andOctober 11th in America for the DS.

LOZ: Skyward Sword's pre-order package, for only 69.99, is
pretty dope. For those who were wondering, I DID miss that last week, Nintendo announced the release date for
Skyward Sword - November 18 in Europe, and 20th in the States.
BIOWARE
- BioWare sub-team Mythic announced a new Warhammer game,
Wrath of Heroes, for the PC. It will be free-to-play, under 1Gig to download, and looks kinda cool to me.

September 2nd, and will run on weekends after that. No release date has been announced.
MICROSOFT

Halo franchise.
