Pac-Man Party 2?

Sorikai33

hopefully it's more of Rollercoaster Tycoon 3DS. They announced that ages ago and then nothing since.

The game is finished, but Atari is delaying the release for some unknown reason. The developer apparently learned this when we did. I wouldn't be surprised if this announcement had something to do with that.

All I want is Roller Coaster Tycoon 4, but Atari said less than a month ago that there are no plans for it at this time, so I'm shit out of luck there.

@Buuhan1:

Jet Grind Radio is the next Dreamcast classic to come to PSN/XBLA. Always wanted to play that.

Remember tho Dreamcast classics are in SD and don't get trophies/achievements, these aren't HD ports. They still charge 10 bucks for them, tho.

It will be HD, so it will probably have trophies/achievements.

Buuhan1

Sweet !

So what was Atari's "special announcement"?

A contest where indie game developers can win $100,000 and a contract with Atari by designing an iOS version of Pong.

LAAAAAAAAME…....Atari that is not big

I am very disappointed. Should have known it would be something stupid. Handheld Apple product games are not gaming news.

Thought I saw a thread about this but couldn't find it.

All of my love. Now I don't have to play it on an emulator.

Just a few posts up, actually. XD

Ah, so it was a post, not a thread.

Oh that looks so great!

Wasn't sure if this went in the Media section or here but:

Noobz. A game for 'gamers' made by 'gamers.'

I think I just died inside….
guess it's nice to see Zelda Williams in something.

I dunno if this is a step up or down for Jason Mewes.

Anyone has fond memories of that game ?

Jet Set Radio Gameplay trailer:

Looks great. I played the hell out of Future, but barely played the original.. Nice to be able to finally do that properly now. Kinda bummed that Corn doesn't look as cool as in Future :V

Sega's holding a contest to have your own graffiti design make it in the game:

Valve may be making a console called "Steam Box" to rival other new gen consoles.

Sakonosolo

Yeah, I don't really understand that. It's basically going to be a PC, upgradeable and everything, so I don't really see the point.

Hideo Kojima open world game?

That just looks like someone messed up a jehuty figure by adding their own sculpting clay and a tissue to it. Probably just something someone sent to kojima and he took a photo of it, thats what it looks like to me anyway.

Sakonosolo

Does anyone else remember that little snippet from a game that you get to play in MGS3 at some point when Snake's passed out in a cell? I wonder if this is an updated version of what that was supposed to be.

That was an awesome easter egg, probably the greatest. But it didn't have the makings of a full game.

How have I missed this? I thought I knew all the little secrets in MGS 3. Almost makes me want to replay the game.

Only $0.99 on the android marketplace.

Edit: I think Beiber's camp may have a case. I can barely tell the difference between the two.

Sakonosolo

The only reason I brought up that game was because the figure Kojima tweeted reminded me of it but now that I watch it it doesn't look anything like it.

Buuhan1

That figure doesn't look like much of anything. I refuse to accept that as a legitimate character design. Kojima best be trollin'.

Capcom fail.

Buuhan1

Took me a bit to find out what the fail was. Proof reading; how does that work?

Sakonosolo

Reminds me of this

Capcom needs to hire more/better proofreaders.

Cyber-Robin

Not just Capcom. Namco screwed up too. I know some words of One Piece don't translate easily. But Unlimlited Cruise instead of Unlimited?

Sakonosolo

Where does it say Unlimlited Cruise?

Edit: Found it. Seems those companies can't proofread 3DS games since they both happened on 3DS games.

Schwerer Gustav

That's nothing compared to how typo littered all their games are. Mega Man Battle Network is chocked full of it

Mr. Zoro

Their Ace Attorney series is no exception, although the games are really text heavy, so a few typos were bound to happen regardless.

Ugh, 4 and 5 were terrible in that regard. 6 and Star Force fared much better.

Cyber-Robin

You UK folk need to get yourselves down to Game and Gamestation ASAP. They're doing a fire sale on all their pre-owned stuff. Big names aren't particularly great prices (Mario, Zelda, Toy Story, GTA etc) but some smaller games got some really nice bargains:

Lost: 99p
Mirror's Edge: 99p
Battalion Wars 2: 1.99
Castlevania: Portrait of ruin 2.99
Ys Strategy 99p
Resistance 99p
Resistance 2 99p
Brink 1.99
Henry Hatsworth 1.99
Devil May Cry 4 (Collectors edition) 2.99
Hoshigami 99p

Can't complain about those prices at all. Even if some of these do end up being garbage (Lost, Resistance)

MagiciteKefka

This is where I wish I lived in the UK. We have Game here in Sweden, but I'd be surprised if they had a sale like this as well.

Cyber-Robin

well its only because they're going down the pan and trying to sell their pre-owned stock.

Schwerer Gustav

Wait… there's a big name Toy Story game? And one that they refuse to reasonably drop the price on??

Cyber-Robin

@Schwerer:

The Toy Story 3 one. That thing sold like bucket loads cus Toy Story was hot with the kiddies. Believe me. Working in Toys R Us in the games section. Sold more than Call of Duty there.

Buuhan1

It was also actually good from what I've heard.

Sakonosolo

Looks like they redesigned Cryengine 3 from when it was used in Crysis 2. Hopefully the next gen consoles can't take full advantage of it since they're most likely not going to make another game with PC as lead platform.
