No NHL Hitz or a WWF game for Misc. Kind of disappointed by the snubs but I like this concept.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

There are wrestling games all over that list.

 

[vivisectvi]

If by all over you mean four..

They missed out on Tecmo World Wrestling for NES. Game was awesome back in the day, especially the cut scenes for special moves and doing pushups with a sumo wrestler on your back so you can be ready for the big fight!

Nintendo - Tecmo World Wrestling

Is W12 supposed to be WWE 12?

 

[vivisectvi]

I think so

Two big tidbits of news today:

- Assassin's Creed III will take place during the American Revolution and you play as a character of Native American descent.

- BioShock Infinite is coming out October 16th

[bps21]

Yes.

That is all.

 

[Vitamin X]

Too cool.

 

[Sabre]

That series is boring to me now.

 

[KingPK]

A complete change in scenery is exactly what that series needs. Climbing trees to dive onto unsuspecting Redcoats sounds like an awesome idea.

From OXM:

OXM will be announcing a “killer sequel” and “spectacular reboot” in its next issue which hits stands on March 21. It will be an exclusive reveal. Announcement of an announcement and all that.

Any guesses? Ed Boon tweeted that he hopes it's a Killer Instinct reboot. I could get behind that.

 

[Youth N Asia]

Nice to see Assassins Creed follow Street Fighter and GTA. Where they can release half a dozen games, but only be at 3

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

I'll be jerking off in excitement if Killer Instinct returns!

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Fulgore was a truly spectacular robot.

 

[Master Thrasher]

It can't be Killer Instinct. Then Rare would have to make relevant game for the 360 for the first time.

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Epic trolling by Rare if it's a Grabbed by the Ghoulies reboot.

 

[Smues]

A Super Mario Brothers & Portal mash-up was just released. I'm downloading it now, looks awesome.

thescore.ca is doing their own NCAA Tournament bracket, but it breaks down to the best sports game of all time.

That mode 7 hockey game (Stanley Cup) was awful.

EDIT: For the purposes of this discussion, "ALL" is limited to "Venk."
i think you're all fucked in the head

WWE12 should have been eliminated for their shit servers and glitch filled gameplay.

 

[Red Baron]

Assassin's Creed is probably the best Video Game Series out there right now. I can not wait for the actual third game.

 

[Youth N Asia]

I got tired with the first one pretty early on

 

[bps21]

I thought the first one was very good. The second one was great. Then the direct sequels to 2 were improvements in some aspects and steps back in others.

Fuck you NHL 12 for corrupting any saved data that I had.

Fuck you NHL 12 for corrupting any saved data that I had.

Brutal. I've had the same problem. And the constant freezing of offline BaP!

 

[vivisectvi]

Just got my shipping notifications for SF x Tekken SE and Mass Effect 3 CE! It's Christmas in March!!

 

[muzzington]

A new Sim City? Yes please!

You can't be signed into XBox Live or your PSN account while playing BaP. It's something to do with a video trying to load from their servers that's causing it to freeze.

A friend offered me a trade this afternoon that I couldn't pass up. He recently started playing Magic: The Gathering again and has been slowly but surely selling through all of his possessions to fund his new "hobby". His PSX collection is something he recently decided to part with. Long story short, I got Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure and The Misadventures of Tron Bonne in exchange for 10 assorted MTG booseter packs (Which cost me about $40).

Just received Yakuza: Dead Souls in the mail.
