If you were at E3 2013, odds are you noticed the rather extraordinary amount of Disney Infinity signage. Disney knows it has a tough fight against the already installed Skylanders, and is ready to bring it. As a fan of the latter, I knew I had to try the former. Fortunately, most Disney booth visitors more »

A.R.E.S. Extinction Agenda EX beat me. It bested me at E3 2013. While I was visiting Aksys’ meeting room, I was able to try an array of games, and A.R.E.S Extinction Agenda EX was one of them. I was looking forward to the experience. As I don’t own an Xbox 360, I figured it would more »

You have to admire an E3 2013 demo that pretty much states within the demo that it will only take about 10 minutes. There’s no wasting time, getting to the meat of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies. Kind of a contradiction, considering the name of the game, but whatever. Capcom had a very nice, more »

E3 2013 isn’t just about playing the newest games. It’s also about talking to the people who make these games, like Klaus Lyngeled of Zoink!. Lyngeled is the creator of Stick It to the Man, a Vita adventure game where players help a man named Ray with a pink hand coming of his head figure more »

Tales of Xillia is a game I’ve been dying to play. With the Tales series, there’s a certain expectation of quality and though the seres sometimes relies too heavily on tropes, I’ve never had a bad time playing one of the games. It’s very hard to offer a demo for this kind of game, given more »

Title: 7 Grand Steps Price: $15 System(s): Windows and Mac Release Date: June 7, 2013 Publisher (Developer): Mousechief (Mousechief) ESRB Rating: N/A, I’d say it’s fine for players ages 10 and up. Mousechief is known for unconventional games. It’s last title, Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble, was an adventure game set on a game more »

Electronics Entertainment Expo (E3) is a rockin’ show. Plenty of recognition is given to the hot new games, new platforms, new graphics, and new hardware, but it’s to give some shout-outs to the other things that are great about E3:

I’m a kid at heart, which must explain why I love Skylanders Swap Force so much. I couldn’t let E3 2013 pass without seeing the latest installment in the series, so I not only made an appointment to hear about the game from Activision representatives, but also to try it on the show floor. I more »

Get ready to meet the cast of Skylanders Swap Force from E3 2013! Okay, I’m not at E3 anymore, but you have to understand – when you play over 35 games in a three day period, you’re going to need about a week to write about all of them. I was going to do one more »

One game I was quite looking forward to experiencing at E3 2013 is a title most Vita owners have been salivating over. It’s Muramasa Rebirth, a port of Vanillaware’s Wii classic, with updated visuals, a new translation and four extra DLC scenarios. The DLC scenarios naturally weren’t present for the demo, what with them not more »

I’ve been joking that each day at E3 starts thusly: “Wake up, see incredibly stupid thing Microsoft has said or done, then respond.” It really does seem to be that simple, though. This week Microsoft has continued its recent pattern of making easy things difficult. We’ve talked at length about the Draconian game sharing policies more »

I love my Vita, but I admit that I have been a little concerned. Games aren’t flowing out as fast as I would like, and it seems like everyone wants to sound the death knell. Sony’s E3 2013 press conference wasn’t very reassuring either. While the Vita was mentioned, the only game that was given more »
