Worms Revolution is almost upon us and Team 17 have released another trailer video showcasing some of the unique weapons and giving a very brief glimpse of some of the new environments. There’s nothing like watching a maniacal worm using an old lady to blow up their opponents or a giant water pistol to just blast the into oblivion.

The once delayed Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time now has a solid release date as Sony revealed that the game will be hitting the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Vita in North America on February 5, 2013 and in Europe sometime in March. It is worth noting that gamers who pre-order the game will also get special skins for Sly and Murray.

To go along with this announcement the company also released the final box art for Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time which can be seen to the right. On the box art we see that those who buy the PlayStation 3 version of the game will be given the Vita version for free as part of Sony’s cross-buy promotion.

Older PlayStation 3 models will not be given a price cut

One would think that with the reveal of the new “super-slim” PlayStation 3 announced at Tokyo Game Show a few days ago the price of older versions of the console would drop a bit. Well, that would normally be the case but that isn’t going to happen with the PlayStation 3 according to SCEA VP John Koller.

In an interview with Engadget he stated that “There’s no price drop formally. But the thing that’s been happening in the market over the last year or so is that there’s been so many retail price promotions, and so many different gift card offers and all those things, being done by all of us (Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony), that we’ve heard from our consumer, ‘Enough with all these weird price moves. What we really want is content and games and value.'”

Well… I’m not sure what consumers he has been speaking too but he certainly seems to be putting a nice little spin on their decision. It is worth noting however that in about a month and a half one of the biggest sales in the United States, Black Friday, will make the PlayStation 3’s price drop significantly for at least one day, so Sony can continue to sit on their hands.

Coming out of the Tokyo Game Show was a new trailer released by Konami and Kojima Productions for their upcoming side entry into the Metal Gear Solid series, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.  The trailer this time around focuses on story, though non-Japanese fans may have a little trouble piecing it together as, since the trailer was for TGS, it is in Japanese.

Despite that one language barrier, fans of Metal Gear shouldn’t have too hard of a time figuring out a bit of what’s going on and even if they don’t there is plenty of action in the trailer too.  Just be sure to stick around towards the full end of the trailer too as there are some lighters moments with some humor that you might miss.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is set to release on February 21st, 2012 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.  Be sure to check out the TGS trailer embedded below.

Tokyo-Game-Show-2012-Day-2-236

Today was Day 2 of the Tokyo Game Show 2012, and after checking out all the awesome games and booths yesterday we were up for some good old fashioned extra-curricular fun. AKA Booth Babes. I don’t know how much the companies spent on hiring these promo girls, but damn it was money well spent. As you can see from the copious amount of photos taken of these attractive women, they certainly are attention grabbing and a great way to draw a crowd over to a booth. Believe me there was some jostling for some of these photos.

Apart from being very inappropriate about the talent, there was also a great range of merchandise available for sale, with stuff from games, anime and even some Batman statues. It’s the sort of place that feels like heaven if you’re a game and anime fan, and surely a place where many, many people will spend a huge chunk of their money.

TGS 2012 Interview with Naoko Mizuno on Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory

We spoke to the director of the Neptune series from Idea Factory, Naoko Mizuno, about the series as well as a bit about the new game that they have announced for the series, Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory and what this new installment will expand on the series, such as the scout system, the disc create system and character challenge.

It seems that the game is a lot more based on your actions within the game, with those contributing to your characters and their skill rather than the usual leveling up systems. So, even if you haven’t played the Neptune games before, this will definitely be a game that would be good to give a go for something a bit different from usual RPG-type games.

Check out the interview with Naoko Mizuno below!

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory will be released in Spring next year, for more information about the game as it comes out keep tuned to Capsule Computers!
