Today Namco Bandai released a new trailer for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 and this trailer demonstrates a feature that the vocal majority of fans seem to be upset about. This video, which can be seen below, shows off a new Ring Out feature similar to Soul Calibur where players will instantly lose a match if they are knocked off a side of the stage.
This was demonstrated ina fight between Minato and Sasuke, where the Rasengen looks to be a tad overpowered thanks to the fact that Sasuke is launched nearly half way across the stage with one hit. That being said, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 is currently set for release in March 2013.

Get ready to create havoc through the skies as Carbon Games in association with Steam release the open beta client this Thursday for their upcoming free to play action-RTS Air Mech. The game also has plans for console and even android releases but will host the bulk of the beta stages through PC.
With more than 400,000 registered players and several beta tournaments set to take place in the coming weeks Steam servers will have their work cut out for them as this beta is open for all territories and numerous stress tests will be required to ensure a successful release in the near future. Pre purchased players will enjoy the advantage of carrying through their accounts from closed beta as a token of appreciation from lead director James Green “letting you keep your stuff is the least we can do for everyone helping us test.”
With the newly integrated social menu players can now jump into matchmaking with preset teams made up of their friends and communicate directly in game as opposed to third party software, Carbon Games also announced additional features such as Daily Quests and Faction choices to be implemented soon.

A brand new Australian trailer has been released by Paramount Pictures AU for Dustin Hoffman’s directorial debut, Quartet. The film is to be released here on Boxing Day, December 26th, 2012.
The film stars Academy Award winner Maggie Smith, 2-time Academy Award nominee Tom Courtenay and the award-winning actor and comedian that is especially loved here in Australia, the hilarious Billy Connolly! Rounding out the main cast are BAFTA and Tony Award winner Pauline Collins and Emmy and Golden Globe nominated Michael Gambon, well known for his recent portrayal of Professor Dumbledore – a role he had taken on after the passing of the original Professor Dumbledore, the late Richard Harris.
The film is a touching, yet mischievous comedy about three friends, Cissy, Wilf and Reg, all retired operatic quartet members living in the same gifted musicians’ retirement home, who revive a theatrical rivalry with the arrival of their fourth former member, Jean…Reg’s ex-wife! What occurs is a reunion that stirs up old secrets and threatens to stop the show before their annual memorial concert on the Birthday of famous Italian composer, Giuseppe Verdi.
Watch the new trailer below, and for future updates on this directorial debut of Dustin Hoffman, keep your eye on us here at Capsule Computers!
*Updated Synopsis – 12th November*
Beecham House is abuzz. The rumour circling the halls is that the home for retired musicians is soon to play host to a new resident. Word is, it’s a star. For Reginald Paget (Tom Courtenay), Wilfred Bond (Billy Connolly) and Cecily Robson (Pauline Collins) this sort of talk is par for the course at the gossipy home. But they’re in for a special shock when the new arrival turns out to be none other than their former singing partner, Jean Horton (Maggie Smith). Her subsequent career as a star soloist, and the ego that accompanied it, split up their long friendship and ended her marriage to Reggie, who takes the news of her arrival particularly hard. Can the passage of time heal old wounds? And will the famous quartet be able to patch up their differences in time for Beecham House’s gala concert?
Heroes of Order and Chaos is a new app ready for release that will be the first app to mirror MMORPGs of a League of Legends and World of Warcraft. For those of you who love playing heroes in strategy games, this will be a really great way to play them in a new context.
Not only can you play online, but also locally against AIs. There are 3v3 or 5v5 matches that you can take part in, with 3v3 matches being linear and 5v5 ones being the standard square maps. Level up your heroes through these matches and give them the skills and abilities to take down their enemies.
For those who like fantasy and action games this is the perfect app for you, especially considering that it is a free to play game. While you will need to make in-app purchases to use a hero more than the standard free trial period, as well as other things within the game, you can also make it by simply playing the game for free.

Good news for My Little Pony fans, Gameloft is releasing a game where you can interact and play with your favourite ponies and help them rebuild Ponyville. Not only do you get to rebuild Ponyville building by building and have all the ponies return as you level up, but there is also a range of mini games for you to play as well.
The My Little Pony app is similar to other apps in which you have to rebuild towns, where you earn coins and can use these to build more of your town. There are three mini games to play including apple picking, flying and fashion.
In my preview of the game it came across as a very fun, addictive game that will probably manage to take over your life as you try to help the ponies rebuild their town, but better. Better by making it your own.
This My Little Pony app comes as close as possible to the My Little Pony franchise as possible, with Gameloft working closely with Hasbro. So for all you My Little Pony fans out there, including you Bronys, this is the perfect app to get you’re my Little Pony on.
