Titan Invasion Hits Playstation Consoles This Summer

-

February 20, 2014

Curve Digital have announced that their upcoming action game, Titan Invasion, will in fact be a combination of Puppygames’; Titan Attacks! and Revenge of the Titans. The cross-buy action title is coming this summer on PS3, PS4 and PlayStation Vita.

Managing Director of Curve Digital, Jason Perkins, stated, “Titan Attacks and Revenge of the Titans are two full games in their own right, so being able to release them as a single collection in Titan Invasion – and to also be able to offer that as cross-buy title – represents great value for money for PlayStation gamers.”

In contrast to EA’s ‘Titanfall’, Titan Attacks! is an arcade shooter, that plays a little more like a modern, more advanced Space Invaders (as shown above), with a full ship upgrade system, online leaderboards and stylish, neo-retro visuals. Whereas, Revenge of the Titans is a real-time strategy and tower-defence mash-up with over 25 different types of buildings and a deep upgrade system as players progress through 50 challenging levels.

Keep on guard for the Titan Invasion, as more Capsule Computer updates are released within the next month.

Yozakura Quartet’s Creator Designs New Digimon Characters

Digimonstory-Cybersleuth-Character-Reveal-01 — **When boy and Digimon meet…the adventure evolves**

That’s right folks, apparently Yozakura Quartet creator Suzuhito Yasuda, is designing the characters for the next Digimon game, entitled Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth.

The protagonist of the game is, not surprisingly, a cybersleuth who can control Digimon and harbours an admiration for hackers. With mysteries cropping up in both the real and digital worlds, it is up to him and his partner Agumon to solve them. Having lost his physical body in an unfortunate cyberspace accident, the boy is now imbued with special abilities and can freely jump between Cyberspace Eden and the real world through the use of terminals.

The game itself described as a “rule-of-virtue training RPG game” and will take place over the course of four years (in game time of course). The game boasts many new places to explore, plenty of Digimon to train and fancy new graphics. Sure to put the PS Vita through its paces when the game releases. So far, only the protagonist has been shown, but stay tuned as more Yasuda designed characters are revealed.

So if any of that tickles your digital fancy, check out the trailer below and nab a first-person view of a new Digital World full of adventure and small dragons. Prodigious!

It’s a big job, but somebody’s gotta do it

That’s right true believers, the dark horse of Phase 2 in the (now Disney) movie Marvelverse has finally seen the release of its first trailer. Though we’ve known about the cast for a while now, it’s good to finally see them in action.

The trailer itself showcases the hapless Star Lord, as he is captured and processed by John C. Reilly, portraying a high ranking officer in the Nova Corps. Through exposition and imagery, we are also given a brief summary of the other four members who comprise the Guardians of the Galaxy: Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Gamora and Drax. A rag tag bunch of misfits who must, presumably, guard the Galaxy.

So check out the trailer below and get hooked on a feeling, which in this case is anticipation for the films release. August can’t come soon enough…

As you probably already know, Konami is planning on releasing Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes on not only last-gen consoles but also the recently released current-gen as well. This means that there are probably a number of people who aren’t sure how the game will look between each console.

As such, Konami has released a video comparing the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. It has previously been mentioned that the PlayStation 4 version of the game will run at 60 frames per second in 1080p on the PlayStation 4, with the Xbox One version running at 60 frames per second in 720p, and the last gen consoles working on a scaled 720p scaled resolution at 30 frames per second. If that bit of technobabble didn’t entice you as to the differences between the consoles, then you can check out the video below and see for yourself.
