Nintendo Wii U Sneaked Details?!

Ubisoft loves to talk...

The Legend of Zelda Tech Demo to show the graphical capabilities of the Wii U at E3 2011.
A recent leak from an unnamed Ubisoft developer has unveiled, still rumored, details about the Nintendo Wii U on a forum. The forum speaks of the price being ranged from $350 to $450. I personally am Subject to believe that is the biggest rumor as I believe Nintendo learnt their lesson from the 3DS Launch. The details within also speak of the specifications involved with the console. DirectX11, Unreal Engine 4, 2GB RAM, Radeon HD 6770 graphics and other pre-installed software. The date for release was placed at the same time as my previous article, November 23rd 2012. A fair time after E3.

More Castlevania information flows in!

The Dragon Returns!

Poor quality due to copying.
At the end of Castlevania Lords of Shadow we hear Gabriel Belmont the main protagonist talking to himself as a Dragon, Dracul. Eu Sunt Dracul. It could mean Dracula, but the more important part of this information is the recently revealed Konami website The Dragon Returns. From this site one can see blue candles sparkling against a red door covered in a golden design of a Dragon. Two angels are also seen parallel on the side of the door. The legs of the angels are being wrapped by snakes, similar to statues seen, again, at the end of Lords of Shadow. Is this the signaled sequel to Castlevania's newest line of on-going games?

New Castlevania for the 3DS?

A new direction or an old step back?

According to N1ntendo, a Dutch Nintendo site, claim that a 3DS Castlevania game is in the works and to be presented at Konami's E3. The Castlevania game is titled, Castlevania Mirror of Fate. Unlike the multiple previous 2D Castlevania games handled by Koji Igarashi this title is being created by company Mercury Steam.

Awesomenauts Review

Awesomenauts stays true to it's name!

Awesomenauts is a game deserving of major props. Awesomenauts is an Xbox Live and PSN downloadable game. The game system is rather simple really. Choose a character, set your loadouts, kill enemies, destroy turrets and ultimately the bases for victory. What really sets the game in motion is the strategy involved, the farming for Solar (the games version of exp), choosing which Loadout to buy at what time and how to use each character. All these mechanics separate a good team from a bad team.
