WISHLIST: PSN (part one)

Category: Feature

Oddworld

Lately, I’ve been more excited about the PSN titles than any of the full-blown ones that have been coming out for the PS3.   This probably has something to do with the fact thought I bought a PSP (and can play the PSone ports on it) and the fact that the last PS3 game I played was Heavenly Sword and the intermittent, though extreme, suck drained me of some good-will.  Here are a few games I’d like to see show up on the PSN.

No SSF2T HD beta? Shame on you Capcom

Category: News

This is a comment/reply on a recent blog post by Seth Killian on the CAPCOM BLOG from which I’ve stolen his posting image because it’s a pretty accurate representation of whats going on. Except maybe Sony Ken is 4 feet lower and getting nailed in the balls by Capcom Ken.

In the post he outlines reasons for not including a Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD remix beta with Commandos 3 on PS3, unlike our X360 counterparts will be enjoying on live:

Playstation 2.17 Firmware update….where’s the changelog

Well…this firmware sure did fly under the radar. I come home ready to play another round of NHL and get trashed by someone online, and it says I have to update my firmware. So as I was downloading… I decided to look for the official change log. But as of the moment I can not find one!!!

From what I have read from various forums it sounds like there is still no in game crossbar or any noticeable changes for the matter.  It sure would be nice to get a list of the changes…even if it’s security updates, network optimization, or just installing a root kit…..I would like to know!!!!!!!

Well it finished installing now….I can play games again.

Yet another Capcom remake on the way

Category: News

Following the recent news that commandos 3 is coming with a HD beta of the new Street Fighter II Turbo remake, Capcom is also releasing a remake of 1942. It will feature online co-op. So Bionic Commando, Street Fighter and now 1942 have gotten the treatment, I wonder if Capcom is trying to cash in on their now grown up born in the 80s fans. Once this batch of games starts hitting the PSN, I really do hope the gameplay holds up because the nostalgia in me is just about busting. MegaMan 2 anyone? The remixed music high def edition.

Echocrome: First Impressions

Category: Games

The Echocrome demo has just been released on the Japanese PSN. Luckily its a small download and as result of that, a very quick play through as well. For better or worse, I’ve had a chance to play through it and gather some “first impressions.”

I suck at fighting games…do you? Maybe this will help!

Category: Feature

All this talk of fighting games has got me excited! Why…I don’t really know, there is something intrinsically cool about the fighting games and they’ve held a special status with myself since reading about Street Fighter II in a gaming magazine. Read more

King of Fighter XII shows Street Fighter how it should be done

Category: Games

Kotaku’s Brian Ashcraft is reporting that the next King of Fighters game is 100% hand drawn. SNK made basic 3D models of the characters, animated them, and took them back to 2D for fleshing out, by hand, on a tablet PC - I’d argue this makes them more like “100% tablet traced” than “100% hand drawn” but that’s beside the point.This is by far the best looking 2D fighter seen thus far. Could this give KoFXII the boost it needs to dethrone the current king of 2D fighters, Street Fighter?

WISHLIST: Future Rock Band DLC

Category: Feature

The Beatles

Rock Band’s monopolization of my free time has extended to me day dreaming about the game when I’m not even playing. This happens at work, on the way to work, in the bathroom, while I’m playing other games, before falling asleep, on dates, in the middle of pleasuring Adriana Lima and while trying to uncatch whatever the Hilton/Lohan three-way may have given me…

Anyway, here’s a list of song packs I’d like to see offered:

PS3 VR head tracking is a “head” of the game

Category: News

Joystiq report’s that head tracking on the PS3 can be done without crazy goggles or any other third party Wiimote mods. Instead it just recognizes your face, neat huh!

Hey…wait a sec, that sounds vaguely familiar… PS3…Using facial recognition…I think I heard it somewhere…oh wait a sec… WE TOTALLY CALLED IT!!!!
