Europe brings out 3D trailers on the 3DS eShop



Meanwhile, Australia waits in the corner, twiddling its thumbs.


It’s a feature that we’re scorning Nintendo for holding back since the eShop was launched early last month, but anyway, our European friends can now access 3D trailers of upcoming 3DS games. The trailers are the ones that were showcased at E3 and they’re being released in two batches over the next few weeks.

The first trailers up from today are for Mario KartResident Evil: RevelationsStar Fox 64 3DSuper Mario (working title) and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. These five will be available until July 20. The second batch, out next week, will contain Animal CrossingKid Icarus: UprisingLuigi’s Mansion 2Metal Gear Solid 3D Snake Eater and Paper Mario trailers and, like the first offerings, will only be around for a limited time.


To access the trailers, you will need to first perform a system update and away you go. Now that Nintendo has finally gotten the ball rolling in the PAL region, we hope to see the 3D goodness arrive on the Australian eShop very soon. How about this week, Nintendo?

Rockstar's Agent On It's Way to Xbox 360









Agent was revealed in 2009 at E3, but since then Rockstar has been very quiet regarding this mysterious title. At the E3 press conference it was made very clear that the plans for the game were for it to be released on PlayStation 3 only, however news from MSXBox-World shows that there may be a broadening of these plans and a lowering of the barriers to entry for Microsoft.
With the recent release of L.A Noire being for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, you would be shocked to hear, if you did not know already, that this title was also thought to have a single console release. Sony were the first to confirm the title’s release whereas there was no signal from Microsoft, however in the end it was released for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, which makes us wonder whether developers and publishers are not as keen to bring titles exclusively to Sony’s console as they once were.
The source reveals that when in question regarding Agent’s platform release details, the Sony Computer Entertainment president Jack Tretton replied, “I don’t know where we’re going to end up on that”. Further suspicions arose when more questioning revealed that Tretton implied that the PlayStation 3 title would definitely offer the best content (or words to that effect), surely if it was a PS3 exclusive this would be a given?
Although the claims are fairly weak still and the game is very much in the pipeline stages, details of the issue remain very quiet and nothing was revealed this month at E3 2011. The official Agent website still infers that the game will be exclusive to PlayStation 3 (see below), therefore for now we will have to assume that this is the case, however don’t be too surprised if things change.
At the moment we are keeping an eye out for any more details regarding game, however the way things look, we anticipate that a multi-platform release will be more likely. Sony’s president says that “it is up to Rockstar as to what happens now”, which we think are very weak words from a huge corporation such as themselves. We can only wait and see what the outcome will be. What do you think of the plans? Would you like to see Agent on the Xbox 360?

Wii U Visuals Superior to Xbox, PS3


Wii U will not only match but beat out PS3 and Xbox 360 in visual terms "for some of the games", according to Ubisoft boss man Yves Guillemot.
Click to view larger image
When quizzed - as every developer at E3 will have been - on how Wii U compares to the other HD consoles, Guillemot replied: "I think at least [as powerful]. It should be even superior for some of the games. We don't know everything, so we have a few things Nintendo is telling us that will have such and such powers."

He goes on to confirm that the firm has had the Wii U dev kits for "quite some time", and that "from the beginning when we saw that console we were impressed by the level of quality of the experience you could get."

Guillemot is unsurprisingly optimistic of the opportunity for another capable platform in which Ubi can release its high-profile titles at little extra cost. "[Wii U] doesn't increase [development costs] very much because the advantage is in being close to the other machines, you can do the game for all the formats at the same time."

In contrast to Guillemot's statement, Ubisoft Quebec's senior technical architect Marc Parenteau told press its too early for comparisons between Wii U and the current HD platforms because developers have yet to learn their way around the new Nintendo hardware.

EA and Activision Multi-Million Dollar Legal Scrap Set To Begin



I could attempt to explain this (and believe me I did) but Tom Ingham of CVG put it in better words than I ever could.


by Tom Ingham of CVG


"A Los Angeles Superior Court judge this week ruled that there were enough facts to support allegations from former Infinity Ward chiefs Jason West and Vincent Zampella that Activision Blizzard defrauded the duo to the tune of $125 million - meaning the path is now set for a full hearing later this year.

The pair are suing the US publisher, headed up by Bobby Kotick, for being fired before receiving what they claim were deserved royalty payments.

The duo claim that Activision promised them control of the Modern Warfare series - as well as increased royalties for Infinity ward on income over $50 million on future games. However, they say that they were removed in 2010 (forcibly, if you remember) before the due payment of over $125 million in royalties was to be made.

West and Zampella's attorneys will be able to question Activision Blizzard CEO Kotick directly as part of the case.

The news follows a ruling from back in March, when another L.A superior court judge ruled that Activision also had sufficient claims against Electronic Arts, for interfering with West and Zampella's contract.



Click to view larger image
Judge Berle sided with Activision to pursue its countersuit litigation against EA, West and Zampella.

Activision is seeking $400 million in damages for "tortious interference, unfair competition, and breaches of fiduciary duty".

It claims that EA executives made secret attempts to lure the Call of Duty creators as early as July 2009 - pointing the finger at EA CEO John Riccitiello in particular.

West and Zampella set up new studio Respawn Entertainment in April 2010. The US company is being funded by EA as part of the publisher's Partners programme.

No product has yet been revealed by Respawn. It is thought to have been creating a game since May 2010, whilst staff wearing the company's logo on their T-shirts were out en masse at E3.

Following West and Zampellla's removal from Infinity Ward, 46 staff left the Modern Warfare creator - 38 of whom have now declared that they have signed with Respawn.

In amongst a host of catty comments that have emerged on both sides of of the case, Activision has labelled the pair "self-serving schemers".

Click to view larger image
Activision in the dock: West and Zampella's claim for $125m unpaid royalties:
First filed: March, 2010

- Activision defrauded the founders of Infinity Ward by not releasing "substantial royalty payments"

- Activision is also liable for for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, wrong termination in violation of public policy, and declaratory relief

- West and Zampella's right to "control Modern Warfare-branded games" has been violated - and the duo want partial future control of the MW Brand

Click to view larger image
EA, West and Zampella in the dock. Activision's claim for $400m in damages:
(First filed: April 2010. EA added to suit, December 2010)

- EA execs began a conspiracy with West and Zampella whilst the duo were still Activision employees

- Electronic Arts "intentionally interfered with contracts, engaged in unfair competition, and aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty by West and Zampella"

- West and Zampella refused to sign standard exit documents that testified they had returned all Activision property, including game development code

- West and Zampella were "motivated by envy and personal greed" and intentionally released game trailers for Modern Warfare 2 on the same day that Treyarch posted promotion videos for Call of Duty: World at War DLC"



So yeah.... There you go.


Who do you think is in the right?

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword demoed on Jimmy Fallon



I still can't decide who I love more. Reggie or Jack Tretton. All I can say is that, If Reggie keeps announcing games and software like he did at E3 for Nintendo then he may well move to the front of the queue of my gaming man crush. Another gameplay showing, another Jimmy Fallon exclusive. This time its The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Bit of an anti-climax after the Wii U was announced but a Zelda game will have fans across the world going crazy.

The Best and Worst of E3 2011


E3 definitely had its downs this year. Mr Caffeine single handily making a nation of gamers want to rip his voice box from his throat at the Ubisoft Conference, Countless number of ridiculous, pointless Kinect support from Microsoft and the now infamous AT&T announcement. There were also some fantastic pieces of software on show to give us fans hope. Battlefield 3, Bioshock Infinate, Elder Scolls: Skyrim impressed immensely, Just to name a few. Then there was Nintendo, Who for me, Truly saved what was the hugely important Press Conferences. Not only did they announce the Wii U, they also treated us to some top quality games for the 3DS including Mario Kart 3D, Luigi's Mansion 2 and possibly Super Smash Bros in the future. Also a treat to see Miyamoto grinning from ear to ear at the sound of the Zelda Orchestra. Yes there were definitely ups and downs, So here are the best and worst of E3 2011.

Everything You Need To Know About The Wii U


A very detailed, in depth article into what exactly the Wii U is. I don't know about others but I was a little bit confused with the presentation, So this article should explain a few things, if not everything.


"At its E3 2011 press conference, Nintendo confirmed some details about the successor to the Wii and even gave its new platform an official name: Wii U. While the name might not suggest much of a difference from Nintendo previous system, the Wii U has some significant upgrades and changes, the most important of which is undoubtedly its new controller. While the Wii U supports all of the Wii's controllers, the controller designed for this new platform is not unlike a tablet. It has a large touch-sensitive 6.2-inch screen in the middle surrounded by a plastic enclosure that features traditional console-style control characteristics, including a D pad, two sets of shoulder buttons, four face buttons, and more. The Wii U is also capable of streaming a video signal to the controller's screen, making it possible to play a Wii U game when the household TV is in use by others.

These are just some of the features of Nintendo's next system. We've compiled everything we know about it into one spot, so you can get caught up on all the latest information revealed at E3 2011.Features

Nintendo Wii U: Inside and Out
Nintendo found lightning in a bottle with the Wii, and with the Wii U--the company's upcoming console--it might have found the bottling plant. The Wii U builds upon the barriers broken by the Wii and takes advantage of a touch-screen-equipped controller that offer players a new way to interact with games paired with a console capable of HD visuals.

Nintendo Wii U Controller Hands-On
Get our thoughts on Nintendo's Wii U controller, and see it from every angle.

Previews

Chase Mii Preview Hands-On
As of right now, Chase Mii Is just a tech demo. It hasn't been announced as a full-fledged game yet, so don't get your hopes too high for some indoor tag action. But what's here is quite fun and a good showcase for how the Wii U can extend the reach of local competitive games.

New Super Mario Bros. Mii Hands-On Preview
Aside from being in HD, the visuals looked essentially indistinguishable from those of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and the levels we got to dash through were challenging, with quickly moving platforms and tricky jumps galore. We had fun with the demo, but we didn't feel that it was a particularly strong showcase for the Wii U's technology, at least at this stage.

The Legend of Zelda Wii U Hands-On Preview
Aside from the streaming technology taking place, what makes this remarkable is the fact that the screen on the tablet is pretty high quality--obviously, it's not on par with the HD resolution being displayed on the TV in front of us, but it was impressive nonetheless and we could easily see ourselves using this feature in the manner Nintendo demonstrated during the conference (switching to the tablet when someone else needs the TV).

Battle Mii Wii U Preview
By moving the tablet down and holding it in a natural position (as you would any normal controller), the camera perspective takes a top-down view, letting the player flying the ship get a more tactical view. Moving the position of the controller in between these points presents any number of different perspectives, and players can ultimately settle on what's most comfortable for them for any situation.

Shield Pose Wii U Hands-On Preview
It's not a great visual demonstration of the Wii U's graphical capabilities, but what makes Shield Pose an interesting demonstration of the Wii U technology is just how the tablet functions as a second screen, not unlike the second screen on Nintendo's DS handheld platforms--only it's completely dynamic, functioning much like a magnifying glass"

More previews coming soon.

Konami Pre-E3 Press Conference

As it seemed Konami couldn't get a space to hold there press conference on the days of E3, They decided to hold it a few days early. Lord knows why they weren't allowed, especially after they had the best show at last years event.. Even if it was for all the wrong reasons.

One Million troops, Luchadors on stage, THAT weird scary guy... This video holds a special place in my heart.

E3 2011 - My Top 5 Picks for Game of Show

We all know about the Call Of Dutys, Uncharted's and Gears Of Wars being the stars of E3 this year, But here is my top 5 pick of games which might of just flown under the radar, But could just steal the show.


5 - Rage


Bethesda sure know how to make a game. So when Rage was announced a few years back, many people were curious as to what Rage actually was. It turned out to be an action first person shooter with driving mechanics. The game is set after an asteroid hit the earth in 2038 which prompts you and other survivors to re-populate. No idea yet if there will be any baby making in the game or just shooting people in the face. Either way this game looks very interesting indeed.

Rage Gameplay Trailer



4 - Journey


"An exotic adventure with a more serious tone, Journey presents TGC’s unique vision of an online adventure experience. Awakening in an unknown world, the player walks, glides, and flies through a vast and awe-inspiring landscape, while discovering the history of an ancient, mysterious civilization along the way.

Journey’s innovative approach to online play encourages players to explore this environment with strangers who cross their path from time to time. By traveling together, they can re-shape the experience – creating authentic moments they will remember and discuss with other"


Its not often that a game tries something very different form the norm. So when thatgamecompany announced Journey, It felt like a breath of fresh air, Although that gust of air could be sweeping some sand towards your face, as the developers have created a stunning looking desert in which you will roam and investigate. I personally cannot wait to see more of this.

Journey Gameplay Trailer



3 - Dead Island


We all like killing Zombies.... Right? Left For Dead, Dead Rising, Blood Drive..... Okay maybe not Blood Drive, But if Techlands Dead Island is anything as good as there now infamous trailer was, Then we could have something real special on our hands. A beautiful open world holiday resort is the scene in which you will decapitate various types of flesh eating zombies, With a range of interesting fire-power and melee weapons.

Dead Zombie girl... Can't go wrong with that.

Dead Island Stunning Debut Trailer



2 - Battlefield 3


Of course Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 is out this year. So should EA delay Battlefield until the COD series has gone away? No, They are not only trying to beat Call Of Duty, but they are looking to destroy it! After releasing several teaser trailers showing off there brand new Frostbite 2 engine which was simply developed for this game (Even using the animation system for Fifa) It is shaping up to be a destructive force in the Modern combat genre. Call Of Duty have a mammoth fanbase, some fans prefer Battlefield. If Battlefield 3 is anything like EA is saying it is, then a huge majority of people may well jump ship. EA will be showing off B3 multiplayer at there Press Conference so stay tuned!



1 - BioShock Infinate


My number 1 choice for game of show at E3. Irrational Games haven't released to much information about Bioshock Infinate,but its enough to show that this is shaping up to be an incredible experience. Fans of Bioshock will be truly excited that the series has taken a break form the depths of Rapture after the rather lacklustre Bioshock 2 pretty much exhausted what was so great from the first offering. Set on a collapsing air-city called Columbia in 1912, That change couldn't be further from the claustrophobic feel of the deep. The more information released on Bioshock Infinate, the more it shows that this is not just another Bioshock game. This game has a few tricks up its sleeve which will be revealed in its E3 presentation in a few days. Its my number 1 pick for a reason so make sure you do not miss it.
