Many JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure fans have been curiously awaiting the release of the PlayStation 3 fighting game JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle in the West. One of the main reasons for that anticipation is the curiosity surrounding the potential name changes the game may require for release.

As one can imagine the name changes have come to light with the game’s release earlier today and while Bandai Namco clearly tried to maintain the same message as the original names, there are some instances that are just plain baffling. Obviously some changes had to be made due to copyright issues, however it remains a mystery why some names that seemingly have no infringing content have been altered.

TownCraft Now Available on iPhone and Mac

TownCraft-03
Every kingdom begins with a single house…I think

Australian developer Flat Earth Games has announced that their building and crafting game TownCraft is now available for iPhone and Mac.

Set in medieval times, players are thrown into a vast wilderness and, following the logical train of thought, decide to build a kingdom better than all others. Naturally you must begin at the bottom and are only able to build the crudest of tools. But if you’re the kind of person who can start with a hatchet and end with a castle, you deserve to rule. Fish, farm, forage, mine, mill and explore in order to put your kingdom on the map and attract some travellers. Sell them your wares and net yourself a nice little profit…if you remember to build some shops. But when your stuck alone in the wilderness, what else is there to do other than build? Not much. Which is good, those windmills aren’t going to build themselves.

With a procedurally generated map, you’ll never be able to predict just where your precious resources will spawn. Think you know where to find some grapes? Nope. Remember a mine filled to the brim with gold? Wrong again. Isn’t chaos fun?

So grab your iPhone or Mac (or iPad) and take a casual little stroll into the odd world that is TownCraft. Though since you’re the builder, any form of weirdness is kind of your fault…

Yesterday we learned thanks to some scans that a new Ace Attorney game was on the way but this time Capcom was going to give the game a special twist since it will not take place in the present but instead in the 19th century during the Meiji era.

Shin Hayarigami revealed for PS3 and PS Vita

shin-hayarigami-teaser-01

If you have never heard of the Hayarigami games then we won’t hold it against you, since the series focused around supernatural horrors has only been released in Japan so far despite three titles being released. That being said, it looks like Nippon Ichi Software is gearing up for a new game in the series as they have just launched a teaser website for Shin Hayarigami.

At the moment the teaser website currently is only showing that the game will be released on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita and that the full website launch will occur on May 1st. Considering how many titles NIS America has taken up and localized since the last Hayarigami title was released, it will be interesting to see if this game might be reconsidered for a Western release.

Filming Begins on Terminator Reboot

Terminator-Still-01

Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions have announced that principal photography has begun in New Orleans on the Terminator reboot, directed by Alan Taylor (Thor: The Dark World, Game of Thrones).

The film, written by Laeta Kalogridis (Avatar, Shutter Island) and Patrick Lussier (Drive Angry), will star a returning Arnold Schwarzenegger, as well as Jason Clarke (The Great Gatsby, Zero Dark Thirty), Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones), Jai Courtney (Divergent, Jack Reacher), J.K. Simmons (Men, Women & Children, Up in the Air), Dayo Okeniyi (The Hunger Games, The Spectacular Now), and Byung Hun Lee (RED 2, G.I. Joe: Retaliation), the latter of whom is rumored to be the antagonist Terminator.

Interestingly, “the Terminator reboot” is exactly how the producers are referring to the picture, neglecting the oft-used subtitle “Genesis”. It looks like a name change may occur by the time the marketing machine truly starts up. The Terminator reboot is scheduled for worldwide release on July 1, 2015.

INDIE ADVENTURE RICHARD & ALICE COMING TO STEAM! 

London – 24th April 2014 – Indie collective Owl Cave have teamed up with UK independent publisher Mastertronic to bring the acclaimed point-and-click adventure game Richard & Alice to Steam!

Richard & Alice, the debut game by indie PR specialist Lewis Denby and Starbound lead writer Ashton Raze, is a mesmerising story-driven tale about family, loneliness, desperation and the weather – set in a post-apocalyptic world. Following the game’s success on greenlight, it will soon launch on Steam with additional features like achievements, trading cards, badges and emotes.

Richard & Alice tells the story of two inmates in a curious future prison, set in a world where years of heavy snowfall have caused chaos and disorder around the globe. Investigate the circumstances of their incarceration and discover the secrets hidden within as the complex narrative unravels and you become immersed in this dark and powerful tale.

There are secrets, lies and lots of snow.

Lewis Denby from Owl Cave commented: “It’s a great thing to see Richard & Alice heading for Steam. This is a game we decided to make because we wanted to explore character stories in video games, and the original plan was for a small free game we could bash out and move on from. That we’re here now, writing quotes for the Steam release PR campaign, is quite something!”

Ashton Raze from Owl Cave added: “I am very excited to see Richard & Alice on Steam, because it meant I got to design trading cards and emotes. This was a lifelong dream of mine, and finally that dream became a reality. The game being on Steam in itself is exciting but TRADING CARDS! Seriously. The achievements were right fun too. You’ll not find things like this in a novel.”

Andy Payne, CEO of Mastertronic, said: “It is both and honour and a pleasure to work with Lewis and Ashton as we love ‘Richard & Alice’. We wanted to help bring their work to a wider audience on digital platforms and shine a few extra lights on this wonderful game. Narrative in games is a personal passion of mine, I hope this game finds its way into many, many game players hearts and minds. It deserves to.”

Richard & Alice will be coming soon to Steam for Windows PC.

Activision Announces “Skylanders Trap Team”

skylanders-trap-team-banner-01

Time to dust off your portals of power and grab your Skylanders figurines for another trip into the world that brings toys to life and combines them with all the magic of videogames. Activision have officially revealed the next installment in the massively popular Skylanders franchise; Skylanders Trap Team.

All Skylanders games have their own unique gimmick that separates it from those that came before it, but I don’t think anything has been such a leap forward for the franchise as Trap Team. The Portal of Power is being upgraded to the Traptanium Portal, which in addition to sending your Skylanders into the game world, will also allow you to capture and then PLAY as the villains from the series. That means with this new game players will be able to play as Kaos for the first time!

Like Swap-Force before it, Skylanders Trap Team will be available on both current and next-gen consoles on October 2nd. There is lots to see with thie new game, so make sure you check out our gallery below and the trailer below that. With so much news coming out, make sure you stay tuned to Capsule Computers for all the Skylanders info as it becomes available.
