Hands on Castlevania Lords of Shadow
During the Japan Expo event at the early July in Paris, a demo of the PS3 version of Castlevania Lords of Shadow was playable at the Konami booth. Developed by MercuryStream and produced by Hideo Kojima, “father” of Metal Gear hero Snake, this game is the first instalment of the series as an action game with some RPG elements. We were able to play the first stage of the game, more like a tutorial, to learn the basics of the game: the different attacks with the whip, the secondary weapons (such as daggers), how to dodge or to unlock combos and ...

The Third Never Ending Conference
On the 10th of June I attended a public conference, namely the Never Ending Conference at the NHTV-building in Breda, where people give lectures about technology, philosophy, design and problems in the gaming industry. During this conference, which was the third one in a row, Bethesda's Joel Dinolt who's acquainted with one of our lecturers, gave a guest lecture about game architecture and the state in which the games industry's in. Here is the list of speakers who each gave their own speech, and I can tell you will notice that each of them has their own passion for what they ...
Slow news day, today
Last week it was a really slow news week. And it seems to get slower by the day. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. We think that the gaming industry is preparing for the upcoming holiday season. So we hope we can start reporting news again soon, but this means there is not a lot of news for us to report, sadly.
Blizzard’s “RealID” rage
Blizzard announced a new feature recently for their Battle.net 2.0 called RealID in which players would be able to see the real life names of their friends. Yesterday, Blizzard has taken this policy one step further and announced that RealID will also be integrated with the Blizzard forums. http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=25626109041 This means that everyone who posts on the Blizzard forum will have their real life names showing next to their posts. After the announcement, a huge wave of angry replies started coming in, and the rage is still ongoing. The topic already has 27842 replies, and is growing by the minute. You can follow the ...
Yakuza 4 and Vanquish
During the Japan Expo Event (July 1st – 4th) in Paris, SEGA showcased two upcoming titles: Yakuza 4 and Vanquish. In fact, it was a demo version of the game played live at the SEGA booth. Let’s start with Yakuza 4, a game developed by Platinum Games and published by Sega.

Each character has his own fighting moves and background. The story will involve them all. A major graphic improvement as ...

Two Worlds 2 preview
My opinion on the first two worlds was that it was fun, but many other people that I talk to about the game didn’t like it or never heard of it. This could be for a couple reasons: first off, it came out near the same time as Oblivion did, and many people already play Oblivion so they just ignored Two Worlds altogether. Either that or they sold... [Read more of this review]
