Hands on with Dragon’s Dogma
The release of the Dragon’s Dogma demo is now available on the Xbox Live Marketplace and will follow on the Playstation Network on 25th April. Not wasting any time, I booted up the demo to give it a go and see what I thought about this creature team bash up!
First thoughts on the demo; now that’s a shiny menu! For the genre of the game, it’s everything we expect to see for a game of this genre; from the layout to the level of customisation,...
Skyrim Kinect Support Roundup
Some days back Bethesda Game Studios announced that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim would utilise Kinect, adding voice support to the Xbox 360 version of the game. Now comes an update from Bethesda’s Vice President of PR and Marketing, Pete Hines explaining how this will work. That’s it, time to shout at the TV and for it to mean something!

Lollipop Chainsaw – Meet the Starling Sisters Trailer
From what has been revealed so far from Suda 51’s Lollipop Chainsaw, we know that Juliet Starling hails from a family of zombie hunters, but we haven’t really seen much of that family. Following on with the character centric trailers, there’s now one that focuses on Juliet’s sisters, Cordelia and Rosalind (both of whom were glimpsed in a Japanese trailer a couple of months back).
Just like Juliet, Cordelia and Rosalind are absolutely insane!...
Magic The Gathering: DotP 2013 Announced
Wizards of the Coast have released the third instalment in their series of Magic the Gathering computer games; Duels of the Planeswalkers. Dubbed Magic the Gathering: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 (a highly original title clearly), it will have a new story, new decks to match the recent release of cards from the official card game itself and new challenges.
Many will wonder why they should bother with yet another update to a game that can only...
DragonBall Z for Kinect gets a trailer
Namco Bandai have released a trailer for their upcoming DragonBall Z for Kinect game.
Judging from the video, the game looks to be pretty much the same as the last DBZ release, Ultimate Tenkaichi, with a first person view for all of the Kinect action.
Techniques such as the Kamehameha wave are used by performing the motions in front of the Kinect sensor, and battles appear to contain all that you’d expect from a standard DBZ fight, complete...
Crysis 3 Unveiled by EA
EA managed to drop a war hardened bombshell by confirming and unveiling Crysis 3. Crytek is set to be pushing the limits on hardware across all platforms with visual and gameplay settings worthy of the Next Gen’ consoles. And yet still it is announced for only spring 2013, meaning you can expect to see it on the console currently residing in your front room.
Crytek have certainly learnt from the previous two iterations and are pushing the boundaries...

Japanese Action Trailer for Lollipop Chainsaw has Sparkly Headless Zombies!
Kadokawa Games are distributing Suda 51’s Lollipop Chainsaw in Japan, and they’ve released a crazy new action trailer which showcases a list of moves at your disposal that can be used to destroy the invading zombies.
When it comes to controlling Juliet, there are basic moves, such as a cheer attack and a chainsaw attack. These can also be combined to create combos. Then there are the out of the ordinary ones, with the most bizarre being Sparkle...
