Dark Souls Gamescom trailer

The Gamescom trailer of Dark Souls reminds us how hard and frustrating this game would be. I'm going to love and hate this game so much.

Damn those bosses are no joke!

Dark Souls is going to piss us off on October 4 2011 for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

New Guild Wars 2 footage from Gamescom 2011

More new Guild Wars 2 footage and these videos makes you want to beg ArenaNet for a release date already. It's looking better and better which makes me think that it'll be the change we need in MMO's.

This is definitely going to be my next MMO, and it has no monthly fee which is perfect. I'll be playing Guild Wars 2 for a very long time I'm sure. It will most likely come out somewhere around 2012 since there are rumors of alpha and beta testing that will happen this year. When we hear about a public beta testing, thats a good indication that it's around 6 months away at least.

Guild Wars 2 Boss Fight: Tequatl the Sunless

Wondered what that amazing looking dragon is in the trailer?? well it's a boss fight that can have up to around 100 players participating in the fight. This fight has a lot of roles that splits the players into doing different tasks like controlling the turrets, taking down the bone walls and of course going head to head with the dragon itself. It's a very dynamic fight and I can't wait to see more of their boss fights in the game.

Whats funny is, the guy said that this is just one of the small dragons in Guild Wars 2. So they have bigger?? heck, this looks grand enough. But if they want to bring bigger, by all means.

This is pretty lengthy, a video explaining us character customization, underwater combat, dynamic events, game mechanics and more. Definitely a must see.

Asura's Wrath Gamescom 2011 Gameplay [Update: Gamescom Trailer]

Oh man, this game just keeps looking better and better. Here's some gameplay footage of Asura's Wrath from Gamescom and what's looks to be a boss fight with his father. Loving the over the top style it has. Can you feel the testosterone filled action?

The Nintendo Wii gets a new look

No, I'm not talking about the WiiU.

Nintendo is giving the Wii a make-over and will be released in the UK this Christmas. The console will be bundled with a copy of Wii Party and Wii Sports. The console will be a white Wii with a slight redesign to sit horizontally rather than vertically. It has also been revealed that this new Wii will not have any GameCube support.

The removal of GameCube support may not be a big deal for most of you but I personally love the GameCube backwards compatibility of my Wii. I always appreciate it when games include support for the GameCube controller and I love me some GameCube action from time to time which is easier since I don't have to bust out my old GameCube everytime I wanna play some Melee or sail in Wind Waker.

As for the console lying down horizontally... didn't the original design already have rubber feet on the one side? Nintendo, sometimes I fail to understand you.

New Budget PSP to come to Europe only

At Sony's Gamescon 2011 press briefing, the newly named Sony Computer Entertainment Europe president and CEO Jim Ryan revealed that they plan to continue supporting the PSP by releasing a new model.

The new PSP will be priced at €99 ($143). However, that price does not come without sacrifice. The new model will not have Wi-Fi capabilities unlike other PSP models. As far as physical design goes, it also looks a little different, like a sort of cross between the 3000 model and the GO. Aside from the fact that it will be Wi-Fi-less, it will still retain the rest of the PSP features.

There is no specific release date yet and will not be launching in North America.
