PlayStation are running a competition – a catch the killer competition – which starts tomorrow. They’re encouraging people to tweet about it using the hashtag #heavyrain4days so if you see that starting to whisk by your Twitter stream; that’s what is going on. To play you need to be old enough and you need to […]
Brink’s detailed character generation options
As a gamer with a traditional background – I started on pen’n’paper RPGs before consoles could touch the genre, er, before consoles – I’m a sucker for a solid character generation / customisation. This video from Bethesda (Fallout) show cases the character customisation in the forthcoming game Brink. You can tell it’s a feature they’re […]
Final Fantasy: Fortress – the game that didn’t make it
Previously on Geek Native I’ve covered the speculation that Square Enix would consider letting a Western development house have a crack at Final Fantasy. Now; according to info a blog at Livedoor has turned up that’s already been and gone. Although there’s nothing stopping Square Enix from trying again, indeed, they seem keen. From what […]
Kentoushi: Gladiator Begins riffs sexy gladiator action
Seems that Starz Media’s awesome looking Spartacus: Blood and Sand isn’t the only production that’s looking to take the 300, a touch of Rome, some sex and some gladiator action and mix it all around. Acquire has a new game coming out on the PSP called Kentoushi: Gladiator Begins that looks to be doing exactly […]
Transformers: War For Cybertron Trailer
Check out the trailer for the new Transformers game coming to Wii, PS3, XBox and Windows this summer
Funky stop motion Tatsunoko vs Capcom commercial
I’m not a fan of cross-genre or ‘guest appearance’ beat ‘em ups. They seem to wreck the continuity of the game, messing with the mythos and shamelessly cashing in on fans loyalty to certain names. I’m not even that much of a fan of beat ‘em ups in the first place. I don’t think Tatsunoko […]
Killmoves trailer from Aliens vs Predator
There’s no way to describe this trailer as anything other than symphony of blood soaked death. It’s called the “killmoves” trailer and it lives up to it’s name. Want to see a quick blast of death from the forthcoming (February) Aliens vs Predator game? It’s out for consoles and PC so you get to pick […]
Tracks & Vehicles trailer for Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing
I’m still in two minds over this game. On one hand Mario Kart is a lot of fun. This looks like it could be just as much a giggle. On the other hand; it’s a certain style that makes Mario Kart fun and I’m not so sure it can be easily re-created. What I do […]
English language trailer for Final Fantasy XIII
There are a number of good things about this trailer; the Leona Lewis song isn’t one of them though. I’m more interested in the character dialog than a reality TV show star’s mantra in the background. They need to turn it down. It’s also worth noting that, shockingly, Final Fantasy XIII won’t be exclusive on […]
Wii Sniper Rifle ships next week
Do we need a sniper rifle for Wii games? Hardware manufacturer CTA thinks so. Having already produced a £25 “Sure Shot Rifle” CTA have presumably tested the market and seen the need. Although it’s slightly odd that the gaming accessory is coming out on the wrong side of Christmas. The sniper rifle is currently only […]
