Take On Titans In The Latest Attack On Titan 3DS Game Trailer

-

November 16, 2013

The last trailer that was released for the upcoming 3DS game Attack On Titan: The Last Wings Of Mankind showed us a few of the different stories that we’d be able to play throughout the game and it also came alongside some information regarding a DLC which adds Captain Levi’s story into the mix, well this time the trailer is a little different and the good thing is that it is very action-focused which, let’s just be honest, is what all of us Attack On Titan fans want the most from this game. The trailer intends to seem more cinematic than the last few we’ve gotten and it does a fairly good job, like I mentioned, it focuses on action and the actual taking down of Titans.

It does look as though it is lacking certain things at this stage but with each trailer that’s released it’s looking better and better, speaking of a release there isn’t long until that comes around; Japan is set to get it on the 5th of December while the West has had no talks of a release I can imagine that, with its popularity world-wide, there is still a chance we could be catching a glimpse of it on our shores. Until the release, enjoy the new trailer and head down to our comments section to let us know what you think.

King, the world’s leading company in casual games, is celebrating its first anniversary since Candy Crush Saga, the addictive mobile game that took the world by storm, was first unleashed to the masses. Some could argue that it’s the most successful game of all time with half a billion downloads. No bad for a Bejeweled-type game.

To mark the anniversary festivities, King wanted to share some statistics:

Over 150 billion individual games have been played to date
61 per cent of UK Candy Crush Saga fans say that they play whilst on their daily commute on public transport, while 78 per cent of US fans revealed that they enjoy switching-and-matching most whilst watching the TV.
One in every 23 Facebook users worldwide is now a fan of Candy Crush Saga
The most popular time that fans play Candy Crush Saga is between the hours of 6-9pm in the evening, and Sundays are the favourite day to play.
Level 65 is the most notorious for being the level that people got most stuck on but also generates the most excitement and celebrations once completed.

Adventure Time: Explore The Dungeon Because I Don’t Know! Now Available

It’s here! Oh my glob, it’s here! “Adventure Time: Explore The Dungeon Because I Don’t Know!” was just announced to have been released everywhere around the UK, Europe and right here in Australia! Yes it’s true, Namco Bandai Games Europe alongside Cartoon Network Enterprises announced it late yesterday that the game is now at a full release and is available at all good game retailers. The game allows you to choose your favourite characters from the Adventure Time series as you crawl through dungeons, find loot, level up and have some of the best damn fun you’ll every have! The great thing about this Adventure Time game release that sets it apart from it’s previous game, “Hey Ice King! Why’d You Steal Our Garbage!?”, is that it is a game that sports the incredibly open option of playing four-player with your friends.

It plays the same as a single player mode but with four times the fun as each different character has different perks, you can fight for who lands the last blow to a boss or you can all just fluff around and have some fun. “Adventure Time: Explore The Dungeon Because I Don’t Know!” is now available throughout Europe and Australia now for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, unfortunately for America they will have to wait until the 19th of November to get their hands on the game, luckily it isn’t too far away. Despite it being published by Namco Bandai Games Europe down here, it will be published by D3Publisher over in the US. The game is also set for a Wii U release on the 6th of December and a 3DS release on the 16th of December so if you’re more of a Nintendo system fun you wont be missing out.

Dreamworks Combo Packs Released by Namco Bandai for Xmas 2013

This holiday season, Namco Bandai are releasing two brand new combo packs for Nintendo consoles based on famous Dreamworks movies. The DS and 3DS pack features two games based around some of Dreamworks’ latest animated films, Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted and The Croods: Prehistoric Party. The latter is also included in a combo pack for the Wii along with Rise of the Guardians: The Video Game.

Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted is a mini-game based foray across Europe, following the wacky group of zoo animals as they form a travelling circus to dazzle audiences around the world. Rise of the Guardians: The Video Game is a more story driven adventure game with co-op aspects, but if party games are your thing, then The Croods: Prehistoric Party should be more up your alley.

Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today uncovered new details for METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES. Coming on the heels of the launch of Sony Computer Entertainment America’s PlayStation�4 computer entertainment system, Hideo Kojima, creator of the METAL GEAR SOLID series, and head of Kojima Productions, debuted new content for METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES.

In the 12-minute extended gameplay video, captured from the PlayStation�4 system, Mr. Kojima showcased a “Side Ops” day mission in which Big Boss must use stealth tactics and sophisticated cover techniques to retrieve key intelligence from a double agent. New gameplay mechanics, time of day, weather conditions, refined AI and pristine graphics showcase the innovative gameplay design and the power of the FOX Engine and the PlayStation�4 system.

PlayStation� system users will also be thrilled to discover Mr. Kojima announced METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES will feature an exclusive mission for the PlayStation�3 computer entertainment system and PlayStation�4 system. The “throwback” mission titled “D�j� Vu,” recreates a mission originally featured in the original METAL GEAR SOLID game AND lets users play as Solid Snake (in all of his low-polygon, pixelated glory) in the high definition Ground Zeroes universe.

METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES is the prologue and the first encounter in the METAL GEAR SOLID V Experience. The prologue primes gamers for the full story and experience in the complete fifth installment of the METAL GEAR SOLID franchise, METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN, which will be released at a future date. Anchored in a deep story mode involving tyranny, espionage and deception, METAL GEAR SOLID V: GROUND ZEROES also expands into numerous “Side Ops” missions that branch off the story campaign and allows players to tackle new objectives independent of the main story.
