Prince of Persia Film "First Look"

Like Gyllenhaal as the Prince? First time I heard Jake Gyllenhaal will be playing the lead, my reaction was, "Donnie Darko? That weirdo?". Others may have a different reaction, "OMG, the guy who kissed Heath Ledger?".

These things aside, will this film rock the casbah? Those who watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, rejoice! Mike Newell will be at the director's chair and Jerry Bruckheimer will be producing it (yes, the same producer for Pirates of the Carribean).

Here's the clip from Entertainment Tonight.


What scares me the most if not the fact that the Prince will be played by the same guy who played the homosexual Cowboy (Brokeback Mountain, my eyes!), it's the fact that it's from Walt Disney Pictures O_O

PS3 Keypad

Tired of typing messages in the PS3? Here's one attachment you will like. This will solve some issues, I mean I'm playing LBP and I'm communicating online like I'm making an SMS. This is a big NO-NO!


But I don't know. You can always use a USB Keyboard (Not that I've tried it. You know that roll up Keyboard made of plastic? Want one! Besides, I rather have the keyboard to stickto the PC for my blogging purposes). Maybe it's reserved for those lazy butts who can't get off the armchair.

One hand on the controller, another hand on the keyboard, and a mutated third hand to dig through the Ruffles.

Street Fighter IV release date set!

The game will be released in the US at Feb 17 next year. Can't wait for some Street Fighter action? We know you miss playing as Ryu or Ken, and definitely ChunLi. First time I played Street Fighter 2 was on the Gameboy (for you kids, it's the DS without the double screen and catridges 3x the size). It's great to revisit your classic favourite characters.

Persona 2 in Amazon.com

Here's a reason to go back to your first Playstation. For those who haven't had a copy and are seriously trying to find this game, you can order it exclusively in Amazon.com. If you still have it in your shelf (somewhere gathering dust), have a go and play it again while you wait for Persona 4. Or you can get back to your PS2 and play Persona 3 again. That's right, repeatedly shoot yourself.

I always wanted this game then T_T

You might not find the same Shoot-in-the-head gameplay, but this game is a classic and was a popular RPG then. Why? Because it has the same gripping storyline that twisted and turned with Lovecraft themes. Want something better? Well, if you get the original, you get to play it in your PS3 ^^

Here's a video to bring back that nostalgia.

Kingdom Under Fire II coming to the PS3?

Kingdom under Fire is just one of the games that made me regret not getting an Xbox. Even Dynasty Warriors couldn't relief me of playing such awesome warfare. Warfare and Heavy Metal that is!

Could it be that the franchise is now going multiplatform? If it is, then finally! Experience the massive warfare with you as their commander to lead their armies in PS3 graphics.

Here is the debut trailer for Kingdom Under Fire II. Edited from actual gameplay.

Mirror's Edge Demo Impressions

I really meant it when I said, "Have a lil Faith". We got a taste of some free runnning after downloading the demo (it's 840MB, btw) and it does have its little ups and downs. (Check out my article on this demo on Brugamers.com )

We love it! Great visuals make up for the frustration and the fluidity of gameplay makes it a superb experience. L1 to jump, and L2 to Slide, who would have thought of that before this? The best fun is when you run without braking. It's absolutely cool but occasional stops to solve puzzles might slow the pace down, but with some combination moves you can get the work done!

It's moments like these that make you go "WARGHHH!!!"

Valkyria Chronicle Anime

We haven't seen the game yet, and already they are planning to animate it. Aniplex's A1 pictures will be producing it, but will it follow the same CANVAS style that the game is known for? Anime fans will be attracted to the variety of colourful characters and its war themed storyline, modelled from World War II. How else are we attracted to it as well?

Selveria Bles: Hot and Cool?

'On the 15th day of the third month of the year 1935, the Empire began its assault in earnest. A formal declaration of war was made upon Gallia.
Though it was only a small front in a massive continental assault, what followed would prove that a tiny nation could best a military giant.
These events would tell a story of tragedy hidden in the mists of time.
A story of courage and of trust, of persecution and hate...
And of love blooming, even through the flames of war.
What follows is a record of this conflict, and of those who fought, lived and died.'

~Irene Koller, "On the Gallian Front"

New Sackboy costumes

New downloadable costumes will be available in the PSN soon. They won't be free though with the exception of the SCEE costume winner, the Sack-eating plant costume (that's to the upper left btw). You may have remembered the reptile and gorilla costume in my last post. But hey ho! Another familliar cameo! We've got Motorstorm in LBP, now you can ride that hardworked ATV with pride!



Penguins and Sharks. Here's something to storm your imagination for you boys and girls! ^^

Naruto: Ulimate Ninja Storm

Chances are you played at least one Naruto game in the PS2, and you might either be a diehard Naruto fan or you just had enough of the cocky ninja kid. I lost count of the episodes I watched and I am not ready to go through all that again!

We've seen all the action, the storyline and all that bad voice acting (ugh, believe it!) from the other games but there is one thing that stands out though: its graphics. No doubt the new gen consoles have brought videogame design to great heights and Naruto is no exception. If you saw some of the game's trailers, you would watch in awe and think 'If this is the future of CG anime, I'd watch this than go through the whole Naruto series again'.



Apparently, since the PS3's release, Naruto finally refined itself and proves that ninja kid action can still rock you socks off. The graphics could be another pinnacle in Japanese animation, especially in gaming.

Tom Clancy's EndWar

Here's a possible game choice you might want to consider. We've been looking at EndWar quite sometime. Max praises the numbers and the very innovative Voice Command system. Seriously, this might be the pinnacle of future games. Control your armies with your Bluetooth Headset in the Speed of Thought.


Xbox360 version is now in ETA if you are interested, complete with its headset. PS3 owners might want to wait for a little while.

Description
The unthinkable happens in 2016. A nuclear exchange in the Middle East kills 20 million people and cripples the world's oil supply. Crude oil prices spike at $800 a barrel. One year later, the threat of world-wide nuclear war is eliminated when the United States and Europe deploy a comprehensive space-based anti-ballistic missile shield. Russia soon follows with an advanced missile defense system of its own. Intercontinental ballistic missiles are rendered obsolete.
Russia becomes the world's primary supplier of energy and experiences a massive economic boom. With its newfound riches, Russia quickly re-establishes itself as a major superpower and restores her military might.
Western Europe, with the notable exception of the UK and Ireland, unifies to create the European Federation. This new nation is destined to be a formidable 21st-century Superpower.

In 2020, the United States is on the verge of finishing construction on the Freedom Star, a controversial orbital military platform that will upset the balance of world power. The European Federation withdraws from NATO in protest. Tensions between the European Federation, the United States, and Russia are building and will soon reach the breaking point. The EndWar is about to begin.


Fighting works like Rock, Paper, Scissors except its the Europe, US and Russia. Lead the faction where your allegiences lie to victory, control capital city and take control of the destructive satellites that started this whole mess in the first place.

You might want to remember this to extend the fun.
