The next offering in the Rune Factory series will have swimsuit competitions that happen across the fantasy land whenever summer swings around. In Rune Factory Oceans – which will be available for both the Wii and the PlayStation 3 – players will control a male character, Azel, and a female character, Sonia, as they explore […]
North Korea invades America: Homefront
It took me a little while to work out which Sci-Fi series this rather awesome advert for THQ’s Homefront reminded me of. It’s Battlestar Galactica. It’s the echo pings in the soundtrack that does it. Check it out for yourself and let me know if you agree. In other news, the ad does a pretty […]

Drake’s Deception: Uncharted 3 trailer
What a busy few days for RPG announcements from the wonderful world of computer gaming. Making a ripple in today’s “most people video” charts we’ll find the trailer for Drake’s Deception – that’s Uncharted 3. (I kinda refuse to write it in all caps like Naughty Dog and Sony seem to insist). I think its […]
ITV and Channel 4 on Demand come to PlayStation 3
Good news for UK PS3 owners. The Guardian is reporting that both the ITV and C4 on Demand services are expected to join the iPlayer on the PS3 this week. Of course, they’ll be wishing they had fairly fat broadband for this. This is an interesting turn of events as under Michael Grade ITV was […]
PlayStation Move advert isn’t naff
I was lucky enough to have a go on the PlayStation Movie during the Edinburgh Interactive Festival. I wasn’t allowed to take any photos but I did get a feel for the Move device itself. It’s certainly more responsive than the Wii-mote. Not sure it’s as amazingly precise as some people claim but I didn’t […]
Ace Combat Assault Horizon trailer
Here’s a chunky ad for NAMCO BANDAI’s Ace Combat Assult Horizon. The marketing chat that came with this video describes Ace Combat Assault Horizon as less of a sequel and more of a rebirth of Ace Combat. In fact, here’s the quote from Kazutoki Kono, Producer at Project Aces, NAMCO BANDAI ; “For us, this […]
More LittleBigPlanet 2 awesome trailer goodness
There can be very little doubt as to the importance of the LittleBigPlanet series is to PlayStation in the West. Over here, away from Japan, the Xbox gives the PS3 absolute hell. Sony’s actually gone ahead and bought Media Molecule the developers behind LBP. It’s no surprise, then, that the effort that’s gone into LBP2 […]
Bio-tech game controllers: every so slightly creepy
I always really like it when talent at Deviant Art (or any similar site; Etsy, for example) scores the limelight. This is certainly true for Mads Peitersen who’s had their artwork highlighted by the mighty Kotau. Mads has drawn some fine – but every so slightly creep – bio tech systems. I mean “biology” meets […]
Enough footage of Another Century’s Episode: R that you can review the game yourself
Another Century’s Episode: R is an mecha game that evokes pretty much every single anime archetype. Perhaps it’s the same sense of thoroughness that perusaded the game makes to be so inclusive that also perusaded them to release so much in-game footage. The following two YouTube videos probably contain enough of Another Century’s Episode: R […]
