Woah, that's alot. Nintendo 3DS's new game New Super Mario Bros. 2 had a really good selling start with 240,000 copies sold in a week ( August 19 - August 26 ). I was one of the proud buyers and i have to say, The NSMB 2 impressed me more than the First New super Mario Bros. on a DS. It has a bunch of new stuff, the gameplay is for sure better than on the first one, and do i even need to mention the graphics? The graphics is great, of course better than on the first Super Mario cause this is Nintendo 3DS....!
If you are thinking of buying your first 3DS game, i suggest this one, cause, you know, it just has some of the basic controlls which help you meet your new Console and become a more advanced user...
Hello,
it's official: PES 2013 is coming out 21st September for xBox 360, PS3 and PC. Woaah!
I'm so happy i'll be able to play it so early! The release date is earlier than expected and earlier than in the past few years!
It's funny cause PES 13 is coming out just a week before new Fifa. So i think that's the reason why is it coming out so early, every year Fifa has been Coming out Before PES, but hell no! This year things are different, Konami finally did something about it!
Well hello everyone... :)
Fifa 13 or PES 13? - The question i'm being asked every day. Don't worry - i'm here, i was able to play both of the games so i will share my opinions with you. Note: I played them only for like 10 minutes. If you are wondering how was i able to play them, well,A really great friend of mine works in one gaming company ( Sorry i can't tell you the name ) and he asked me would i like to try some new games. I was like Sure why not? Soo yea...
So let's start:
I would like to say that Fifa is a really different game than Pro Evolution Soccer:
Note: Fifa 13 is more of a cinematic game, i don't how to say it... When PES 13 is more of a arcade game, you can play with your friends, family and never get bored.
Above: Fifa 13
Graphics:I think Fifa 13 has a little better graphics than PES 13. If we are talking about the faces - in my opinion PES is the winner here. Konami did a great job designing player faces.
Gameplay: Everyone has their own opinion, and so do i: Gameplay is MUCH better in PES than FIFA, again, this is just my opinion. Fifa 13 , as i mentioned above, is more of a cinematic game it is true that it has hell of a better player movements that Pes. I think they should have focused more on the gameplay and less on cinematics, but, EA is that kind of company, and i respect that.
It's sooo cool that Fifa 13 is supporting kinect, unfortunately, i played the PC version. ( with a controller )
Above: Pes 2013
PES 13 is like... an arcade game, both games are fun when you play with friends, but PES dominates. Great.
So i would recommend getting Pes 2013. Why? -- Better gameplay, i think that's all that matters in sport-simulation games, i mean, graphic is important too. You can't enjoy gameplay with a crappy graphics. Even if i prefer Pes over Fifa i think that's not the best they can do...
Hey everyone, got some fresh Wii u news for you today, so take a hot cup of tea, sit, relax and read cause this is something worth reading. :)
Just few words before i start with the information. This is the news that we waited a long, long time, even if it's not been officially confirmed yet it's still the hottest news, ouch! A little to hot...
Release Date
Nintendo Wii U release date appears to be November 11. That is 99% correct, so... cool!
Price
This is the fun part. :D How much do you think it will cost? It will cost 250$, 300$ and 350$. Yea i don't really get why are there 3 prices but i suppose it's going to be like an xBox 360 with kinect package and without kinect package... Get me?
How much would you spend on an upcoming Wii u?
You can check out GameSpot's video:
That is all the news for now, but i'll keep you informed.
Ten years ago EA Label boss Frank Gibeau said "The EA executive pointed to the rapidly growing size of the industry as a positive point." Now, he says "From this chaos, you're going to get a new order, a new approach, that's going to be a very vibrant time for games,Yes, there's chaos right now, but a golden age is coming."
What the hell should we supposed to mean by that? Sorry, i'm so pissed now, i broke my arm trying to reach an xBox 360 controller while i layed on my bed, and i had a really bad landing and... It happens... Gosh! How could i be so stupid!!!
Nice, right?
Do you really belive what Mr. EA boss says? I mean, how can he know that "golden age is coming", when they almost bankrupted. Hehe, well this post is not really important but i was like "What the hell, i'm bored" and i shared it with ya! Check out my blog tomorrow cause there are some Fresh New Nintendo Wii U news coming!
Hello folks,
I was thinking about pre-ordering Borderlands 2 and i thank of something that i think amost every time i'm buying a multiplatform game and i think a lot of you guys face with the same problem: PlayStation 3 or xBox 360? Of course i buy games for my PS Vita, my Nintendo's and especially my PC, but when it comes to the regular multiplatforms like Need for Speed for example i usually buy them for my xBox 360 or PS3. If we are talking about First person shooters i don't really like playing them on consoles so i almost always buy them for my PC.
The last thing i have to say before we actually start is that i have not included PC in this because we are talking about the "same gen" consoles. I don't really know how to explain it but that doesn't matter right now.
If you have the same issues just follow these simple steps. ;)
The question is xBox 360 or PS3? I can't really answer that question directly. Why? Well, there are a lot of reasons:
1. Price - For example: If you see a Playstation 3 version of a game that is much cheaper than the one on the xBox - Buy it.
2. Technical issues - Skyrim for example, is a multiplatform, and i and a lot of people would go for an xBox 360 version. Why? Because PS3 version has a bunch of technical issues and is not really worth the money. So, technical issues is number two: Always go for a platform that doesn't have any technical issues or has minimum issues.
3. Pick what you like - If you prefer one platform over another, buy a game for what you like to play on and on what you enjoy more.
3. Search the web - Search the web for other people's opinions on each platform and decide.
So that was it, see you next time, maybe today, who knows :D...
Well hello everyone...

Hello everyone,
Square Enix announced their new game which will be the last one in the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy.
It seems like it will be an open world game that takes place within the world Novus Partus, which contains four large islands and the game will chronicle the last thirteen days of the game's universe. Lighting Returns: Final Fantasy XIII will be out in 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and xBox360. The fitst batch of art from the game can be seen below.
It's almost Official - New xBox and Playstation are soon on the store shells!
There's sooo many xBox 720 and ps4 rumors going around the internet these days even if Microsoft and Sony have not officially announce their next-gen consoles, third-party publishers are already working out their launch gameplans. I read an interesting interview today and i tough i gotta share it with you. Speaking to Bloomberg this week, EA Games Label president Frank Gibeau said that when new hardware arrives “in about a year’s time,” his company won’t be making the same technological mistakes seen this generation. Oh and by the way text marked in green is from GamesRadar.
“It’s a big investment for us this year,” he said. “What you first have to do is start with the technology, the hardware, what’s coming out, and what it does really, really well, and understand what’s going to drive innovation there.”
Addressing EA’s weak start on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, Gibeau said that EA “made a couple of mistakes in how we built our technology,” explicitly noting such defining current-gen features as high-definition graphics and online platforms. He went on to note that for the upcoming generation, EA’s technology approach can be seen in the the Frostbite development engine, which powers such games as Battlefield 3 and Need for Speed: Most Wanted.
EA is currently prepping three to five new intellectual properties for release on the new hardware within 24 months of their launch. Additional information on these titles was not provided.
I was happy seeing these news, i am really really excited about next-gen consoles. Are you?
Steam GreenLight is now live! What is Steam greenlight? Steam Greenlight is a new system that enlists the community's help in picking some of the next games to be released on Steam, it features a group of Indie games, all vying for your attention. So i browsed screenshots, videos, and of course i voted for those that i want to play. Now it's up to you. It's simple! Try it!
I think that really is a well done job by Valve.
How to Vote on Steam Greenlight
To vote just follow these simple Steps.
Log in to your Steam account. ( If you don't have one, create it )
What's Vita's biggest problem? Why is it selling so weak? Well, dear readers,to date, it's been a struggle to turn Vita into a success for Sony. Sales have been weaker than expected for a variety of reasons. First of all you have to buy Vita for 250$, and than you have to buy a game which is 40$+, and we also need a memory card and so on. But why buy that when mobile gaming is stronger than ever? You can afford a great game on Android for a few bucks. I think Sony's big problem is that it seems like Sony has taken forever to do the things it was supposed to do in the first place. I don't understand why it took so long to launch a YouTube app, for example.
I will admit Vita is so attractive but too expensive:
Do you have a PS Vita? Are you satisfied with it?
I can't wait for new PS Vita games, they seem they will be so good. Will you buy them?
Why so few PSone titles are available in the US?
I read that Sony explained why so few titles are available? Well that was necessary, cause it sure did
me and the other fans angry. Sony said: "Each territory is completely unique and must go through its own individual processes for approvals in order to be available for purchase directly on PS Vita through PlayStation Store. We work collaboratively with all parties involved, including third party publishers, to ensure that we are following the proper protocol. As of right now, there are nine PS one classics titles available on the PS Vita store, however we are working hard to expand this list as soon as possible."
Well i'm glad to hear that, and boy i'm glad i'm not living in America.
So i turned on my PS Vita and there are 129 games available here in Croatia.
I really had a great, great time with my Vita, it really should sell better.
PS Vita's new Firmware 1.8 News! Play PS one games on your PS Vita!
Hello everyone. Great news! If you haven't already heard, you can now play PS1 games on your PS Vita! Awesome right? All you need to do is download the games from PlayStation store! It's that Easy! If you still love your PSOne classics, this is the absolute best way to play them! But bad news
for North Americans, they can only play nine psx games. :(
I've red somewhere that Europeans will have hundreds of them. That doesn't make any sense!
However you can always get more games with transfer ( which is not 100% legal ) but it's not like
cops will come to your house for doing it, right? :)
So i tried it on my PS Vita, and this is how it looks.
Aspect ratio is changeable. In the picture above it shows 1:1 which is the sharpest of all but it's bordered with black.
You can fill Vertically or horizontally which looks great but you lose some of the top and bottom of the screen.
If you don't mind things looking a little squashed you can fill the entire screen.
I gotta admit that the games look great, better than on the ps3. So Sony did a great job on this.
Till next time! - Puscifer
Hey guys, today i'm gonna talk about Battlefield. As you may already know
i picked Battlefield 3 for game of the day, and it's because it deserves it.
Battlefield 3 is one of my favorite First person shooter games.
Why? Well there are a lot of reasons. For example, in what other
First person shooter game did you see such a great graphics,
such a great story line, such a great gameplay...?
I could be counting
reasons for two more hours, but i won't cause there are a lot of trailers and gameplay videos on YouTube. First of all let's Check out the trailer:
As you can see, an amazing trailer. A lot of effects and an incredible gameplay. And i'm not saying other first person shooters suck, like Call of Duty, i'm just saying i prefer Battlefield 3 over any Call Of Duty. Don't get me wrong - I like Call of duty games, i like them so much that i own every single Call Of duty game except World at war.
Do you already own Battlefield? Are you thinking like: "What should i buy? CoD or Battlefield 3"
I'm not gonna say "Buy Battlefield 3?" i'm gonna say - Buy what you like.Check out both of the games, play demos, watch trailers, watch gameplay videos. And the first game that gets through your skin - buy it.
So why do i prefer Battlefield 3 over any Call of Duty? Well, you see i was a fan of Call of duty for a long time, but they continued to disappoint me cause they were selling us the exact same game over the years. So i lost my hope in Call of Duty.
When Battlefield 3 came out, i was like "This is something different i should definitely try this game" and i was right, it is something different that non of First person shooters have.
I am really looking Forward to Battlefield 4 right now. However, with a 6 year gap between Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 3, chances are we won't be seeing it anytime soon , i just hope they won't disappoint me like Activision.
Check out more of my posts and thanks for reading.
The game was announced by Satoru Iwata during today's Nintendo Direct Livestream. From the footage released, it
looks like a hybrid of a traditional side-scrolling platformer,
replete with a Mario Bros-style world hub, and a rhythm
action game. The game's hero charges through levels,
from verdant hilly landscapes to city rooftops, collecting
musical notes and swinging a quaver like a battle axe/golf
club. Presumably, you have to execute your attacks in time
with the game's music. One level shows a different character
shooting enemies from afar with a harp, while another stage
showed the main character in a supped-up musical mine cart.
The video also showcased a boss fight which seemed to introduce
variety into the gameplay. A voice called out the moves that would
be required in time with the music, before the player then had
to input them at the same speed in order to be victorious.
The game is scheduled for release in Japan on
September 5, 2012, priced at ¥1,800. No word
on a Western release date.
Online competitive brawler Happy Wars to be service's first title with freemium model, will require Gold membership.
Free-to-play games are coming for paid subscribers of Xbox Live, Microsoft announced this week. Multiplayer cartoon brawler Happy Wars will lead the business model's charge onto Xbox Live Gold in September, Microsoft told Official Xbox magazine.
Ascend: New Gods, a role-playing game with ad-hoc multiplayer elements, will be another of Xbox Live's first free-to-play offerings and is set to launch in "several months." Microsoft said the free-to-play games will only be available to Gold subscribers because many implement multiplayer, a Gold-only feature. Titles with in-game purchases will use Microsoft Points.
Xbox Live's new offerings will increase the online service's parity with PlayStation Network, which already hosts free-to-play games including DC Universe online and the upcoming Dust 514.
The wii U's release date may have been exposed. A presentation today at the GameStop managers conference by accessory maker PDP allegedly slipped a November 18 release date for the console,kotakureports. A corroborating report is hosted on NeoGAF.
According to the source, "[PDP] changed the subject real quickly once they realized what they said." A PDP representative issued a statement to Kotaku, which neither confirms nor denies the report.
"At this time we can't confirm Nintendo's dates and we don't know exactly what was heard, but we simply do not know that this point," reads a line from the statement. "We are launching accessories, but the date for the accessories doesn't mean a confirmation on the hardware. If you seek confirmation on the date that is something that is going to need to go specifically though Nintendo, but we can't confirm or deny dates on any of their hardware."
A Nintendo representative told GameSpot, '"We have nothing to announce at this time."
Nintendo is holding a Wii u themed eventNew York on September. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime will present that day on "how the Wii U will change the future of gaming and entertainment."
A November 18 launch date for the Wii U falls in line with previous reports. Toki Tori 2 developer Two Tribes had previously said a November launch date for the console was probable, with the more recentscuttlebutts suggesting a launch during the week of the United States' Thanksgiving holiday and the Black Friday shopping frenzy.
Even if Nintendo DS/i is not "in" anymore, i still think it's one of the best handheld systems ever made and that's why i decided to make this post.In four years with my DS, i played a lot of games on it and i will now choose the top 10 games.
It's gonna be a really hard Choice since the system has Many great games to offer from First Person Shooters to RPGs.
So let's start:
Number 10:
GTA: Chinatown Wars
GTA: Chinatown Wars was released in 2008. All the shooting and running were still there but withangled-down perspective and with lovely cel-shaded graphics. Running from the cops was different, too - police needed to be taken down by smashing into them, rather than scarpered from. Apart from the regular missions, there were also a variety of touchscreen mini-games, including hotwiring cars and playing around with your PDA. The reason why i like this game so much is because it's different than the other GTAs as i mentioned above. Great game, great story line. 8/10 Number 9: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Originally released in Japan as a Game Boy Advance title in 2001,Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney finally made its way west-wards in 2005 as a Nintendo DS release. And boy, am i glad it did.
Phoenix Wright is a defense attorney, tasked with searching the scene of a crime for clues, then presenting evidence and cross-examinating witnesses to get his client a Not Guilty verdict.
The storylines are mind-blowingly diverse and clever, while the characters are fun and make the whole experience feel incredibly worthwhile. Phoenix pointing his finger and shouting 'Objection!' will forever be a gaming meme and keep his memory alive.
A flurry of sequels followed Ace Attorney, including spin-offs involving new attorney Apollo Justice and Phoenix's enemy/friend Miles Edgeworth, but the original title remains the best.
8.1/10
Number 8: The World Ends With You
When i first started playing The World Ends With you i was really excited cause a lot of people told me it's one of the Best DS games. At first i didn't really like the game and was dissapointed in the gameplay and the story.
But as you get further in the game it really starts being Fun and Exciting, I would personally rate the gameplay of the game 4/10 ( my opinion ) but story fixes everything.
This ice-cool romp is a must for RPG fans seeking something a little different.
Even if there are a lot of Fantastic Pokemon games on a DS i chose this one because its simply the best.Looking forward to Pokemon Black and White 2!
9.0/10
Number 4:
Scribblenauts
Ehh, what can you say about Scribblenauts, one of the best DS games, Its so soooo Fun when you have to solve puzzles and you can create anything you want. Just write the word and its that easy.
9.2/10 Number 3: Mario Kart DS
Driving and driving, Nintendo's series continue with this Ultra-Awesome game. It's especially fun when you play multiplayer with players from All over the world, or if you just play with your friends.
9.5/10 Number 2:
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the StarrySkies
In my opinion best RPG game on a DS ever made. Nothing more to say thanan excellent game and i think everyone should try this game, best game on a DS which you can see in my rating:
10/10
Number 1: NEWSUPERMARIO BROS. !!!
Best DS game ever made, NEW SUPER MARIO BROS. . I don't know what else can i say.Fun as hell, and it can keep you stick to your DS a reaaally loong time. Your first game should be this one.
As you may know, big gaming industries like Activision and Electronic Arts mentioned above are in a big crisis. Activision has recently responded to the attempted sale of financial instability. However, the problem remained unresolved, given the fact that they have not found a single buyer. To be more precise - not one that would be willing to pay an amount that would satisfy the owners of the troubled publishing giant.
If you think that only Activision has trouble selling games, you are wrong. The entire gaming industry suffers of a gradual, but inevitable fall for a long time . Does this mean that playing video games has finally emerged out of the trend? Hell, no! Mobile gaming has never been stronger. Social gaming is also experiencing a renaissance. And what about the triple A titles? What's with big publishers and their multimillion-dollar franchise? Well, despite EA's popular Battlefield, Need for Speed and a few titles that you will probably be able to count yourself, it is in a financial bind.
This costs a lot. Really.
Specifically, during the first half of 2012 Electronic Arts' stock price has dropped enough that a lot of company's bosses began heating up armchairs. Specifically, it was not even half a year, and the value of the shares is degraded from 68 to 18 dollars, which caused the company to fall in such a crisis. Yes, it's not the end of fall, and that there is still half a year to continue to dive. Why gaming today runs in a crisis? Why have large publishers issued beautiful titles for gamers and with totally unclear reasons fail and cause the cancellation of the entire fiasco as developer teams? The reason for this are, dear readers, everyone. From you, through the publisher, to the media.
Why gaming developers themselves dig a hole under your feet? Because doing triple A titles. Because they realize that they make the most money that way. And ironically, even if one of them receaves an epipfany and says "hey, lets not work only Call of Duty or Warcraft or whatever." he can not. Why? Because their competition is at the same time for the hundreth time upgradeing their franchise in the hope that it will hit the fanbase, add a couple of new fans and perhaps justify the investment. You see, making games like CoD, Assassins Creed, Battlefield, and Final Fantasy costs. A lot. In fact, it costs so much that the companies that issue them often risking their existence solely to the year after the contractions finally pushed out in front of all that insatiable audience. Every game these days has to be better, brighter and more realistic than before. And all that costs.It costs so much that your brains would boil up. Why not go to work cheaper interesting titles? Because it does not lie in the massive money to a company that feeds the audience. They have to go to a "slam dunk" and have to work tried headlines because it's the only sure factor in the industry. It's easy to tell us that we should Move their ass and work better games with better maps of the fantastic new franchises. The problem is to make such a game and sell it well enough to cover herself, and at the same time justify why its developer is not the time spent producing something better like NEW CALL OF DUTY.
The General problem with people today is that they do not realize what the gaming industry has become. the Industry in a full, impersonal, raw, manufacturing sense. Manufacturers of consoles literally puke out new devices in the hope of covering those losses before. Wondering why Nintendo is doing well? Because sales of hardware go before the software, while triple A software is worth mentioning it mainly comes from the company (and 3rd party developers generally work ports and mediocre titles). Wondering why Xbox is doing well? Because their consoles can make crack and because Sony's online service has been paralyzed for several months due to hacker attacks. All these mechanisms are raw. Creativity and imagination in new titles are a part of the job, but do not be fooled that this same work is something fabulous. A large number of creative teams, each one from LA Noire, to the recent Darksiders 2 have a lot to say about the work under brutal deadlines and delusional standards to be achieved. To sumarise, big-gaming is in a crisis today because it is literally incapable of doing something different from what it has worked on for the last six years.
LA Noire: Great game, but a bad developer
And what about you, the players? You are still part of the problem. Why? Because first of all do not support titles by buying them already, so you download the for pirate sites (at least a part of you, judging by what we read on the forums). Secondly, it supports insanely punching one and the same title by buying them (ironic, I know). Each sold Diablo 3 or Call of Duty or Battlefield guarantees you that the company will make at least one such product, to shake him an impossible amount of money and hope, that you, a year after purchasing the unit, would still want to buy two. Buckles have this circle of life philosophy? And finally, a trend that we have noticed lately is the one which literally affects how the game ends. Do you remember maybe one game called Mass Effect 3? And its end. It does not matter what it ended up de facto third gamers. It is essential that they all chocked when the end did not give them the satisfaction they expected. Before us the classic manner didn't pour in difficulty one to mention one thing - remember how the game worked ten years ago. Have you had an impact on how the fallout ends or (hell) Star Control? Have you ever had the urge to write essays to the developers dictating to them how you have the right to get satisfaction from the game if you bought it. No. Then the things may have been less than in the day, but games are still played. Someone would say even with greater pleasure than today. In the context of the collapse of big developers, players or more, you have the following role: continue to buy the game and secure the future of triple-A titles. If that does not work ... well, we hope that you have a Facebook or a mobile platform, because it seems that the water is flowing in that direction.
The future?
To summarize the current state of the gaming industry, it has not fallen from the sky. An unhealthy combination of big-budget productions, piracy and a lack of promotion of alternative development is a reason why the big players may not be there for a long time. Games will naturally be ... just it will not be the people who are willing to invest a massive amount of money just to make something that would ensure sure shot profit. Because it' surely slowly losing momentum. Ask Electronic Arts and Activision what they think about it and you'll get some adequate answer.
Actually, who knows ... maybe that's a good thing.
Hello everyone, i have some bad news today, it looks like AMD is stopping with CPU production. AMD FX2-8300/6300 (Piledriver Vishera) desktop processor is the last performance desktop CPU ever, All next processors in desktop will be only APU. An APU is a processor that combines CPU and GPU elements into a single architecture.
APU processor:
AMD completely ends production of performance desktop CPUs!
FX2-8300/6300 processors for socket AM3 + are the last competitors
against Intel-DT platform. AMD gives up the fight against Intel here,
and in the future will launch only APU with mainstream performance!
Vishera + AM3+ are the last representative of an AMD performance CPU
platform! If that is true, it would mean a total Domination of Intel on the Market. I hope it's not true.
