The Lord of the Rings: War in the North Review
Over the past few years, The Lord of the Rings franchise has gone silent. There was a time when the world of Middle Earth was on the forefront of everyone’s mind. The film franchise was doing gangbusters in the theaters, and the books were at the top of the bestseller lists. On the gaming front, LOT…

NYCC: 10,000 Years in the Kingdoms of Amalur
38 Studios has its hands full with Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, its upcoming hack-and-slash RPG that’s set to be released in February of 2012. I’ve played Reckoning and I think it has a great deal of potential from a gameplay point-of-view, but when you hear about how ridiculously ambitious its ap…

X-Men: Destiny Review
There was a time when developer Silicon Knights was at the top of its form, creating some of the best games on the GameCube, namely the unnerving mind-funk that was Eternal Darkness and an excellent update of a PlayStation classic, Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes.

Final Fantasy XIII-2, Special Pearl Black PS3 Being Released
Is Sony going to release a new console for every game that comes out? It’s looks like they are, with the recent announcement that a Playstaton 3 Final Fantasy XIII-2 Lighting Editions Version 2 (wow, that’s a mouthful) bundle pack will be available on December 15, 2011. The bundle will include the Playstation 3 console with 320 GB hard disk drive and the FInal Fantasy XIII-2 game.
The PS3 system comes in a special pearl black color with “Lightning”, one of the game’s heroine, printed on the surface of the system. THe design in red color, the conceptual color of the game, contrast sfavorably with the pearl black body, depicting the dark and seriousness of the game’s world concept.
Seriously, everybody in Japan must own five Playstation 3 consoles at this point. I get it, Final Fantasy is huge, and may warrant it’s own console, but it’s like Sony releases a new “special” console every week. This comes right after the announcement of “Splash Blue” and “Scarlet Red” consoles. Doesn’t anybody see what Sony is doing here? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!
With that being said, the system does look pretty tight.
TGS: Silent Hill: Downpour Needs More Work
I’m worried about Silent Hill: Downpour. As a longterm fan of the series I was slightly concerned about Downpour when it was first announced that development duties on the survival horror sequel would be handled by the relatively unknown and unproven Czech studio Vatra Games, and since going hands o…
