Earth Defense Force 4 Announced With Trailer

Posted on September 14, 2012 by Joshua Rust

If I can say one thing about the Earth Defense Force series…it’s crazy fun. Just announced is the sequel called Earth Defense Force 4 – as of now. EDF4 boasts co-operative multiplayer for “large numbers of people” and a new female class character called the “Wing Diver”. Apparently she can zip around the map causing all kinds of pest control.

Obsidian Entertainment Kickstarting Project Eternity

Posted on September 14, 2012 by Les Major

That’s ‘Project Eternity’ to be exact. While there arn’t many details on it yet, it’s a safe bet to assume this will be a fantastic game. With creators I’ve loved throughout my youth coming back and offering up new content through kickstart I’m finally seeing the true value of group funding like this. If projects like this are possible to begin with, it’s positive to see them coming

8 Minutes Of Campaign For Medal Of Honor: Warfighter

Posted on September 14, 2012 by Joshua Rust

Medal Of Honor: Warfighter is about a month away from being released and EA/Danger Close are showing off some single player campaign in this new trailer. Medal Of Honor: Warfighter is supposed to be set in realistic Middle East warfare campaigns. I know that these games are pretty much designed for the multiplayer component, but for once I’d like to see a fairly lengthy single player as well. Maybe Medal Of Honor can deliver on that. [youtube id=”IPGS3T3sjUQ” width=”600″ height=”350″] Medal Of Honor: Warfighter is set to release October 23, 2012.

Japanese WiiU Price & Date Revealed Tomorrow

Posted on September 12, 2012 by Rae Michelle Richards

Speculation surrounding the WiiU’s price will end tomorrow, for the Japanese at least. In a similar fashion to their E3 Nintendo Direct events, the Big N will make the announcement via pre-recorded message streaming online rather than at a traditional press conference. Japan’s pricing structure and release date will be a solid indicator of what we can expect in regards to North America. Just don’t take it as concrete truth, the Wii launched in Japan almost two weeks after it’s North American counterpart and the Japanese currency is currently worth a little less at exchange than it was last decade.
