Atelier Totori receives a massive amount of English screenshots

-

July 27, 2011

I hope you have plenty of time on your hands because NIS America has just released a massive amount of screenshots for Atelier Totori: The Adventurer of Arland. Better yet all of these screenshots show the localized English version of the title which means that these are the same exact things you will be seeing when the title is released on September 27th exclusively on the PlayStation 3.

In the screenshots below we are shown many different elements from the game, including combat, alchemy, events and normal gameplay. This includes the older, mature version of Rorona from the past Atelier title. Also you must remember that when Atelier Totori: The Adventurer of Arland is released in September it will come with the game itself, a soundtrack CD and an art book. Of course considering the art we see in the game itself, I’d say the game itself is the true art book.

Double Dragon 2 remake coming to the XBLA; named Wander of the Dragons

Fans of the Double Dragon series may jump at the sight of this news but you better keep your pants on for at least a little longer. Double Dragon 2 will be coming to the Xbox Live Arcade sometime in September for 1200 MSP but there is a catch here. The game is being remade into a 3D arcade game and is going to be called Wander of the Dragons which is a very strange name considering Wanderer would be at least appropriate.

The title is being developed by Barunson Interactive which is a Korean Developer. The game is based off of the arcade version of Double Dragon 2: The Revenge and will feature 3D graphics and new revamped gameplay. The characters have also seen a rather significant design change and judging from the gameplay video that Eurogamer has put online, this could be a rather upsetting game for true fans of the Double Dragon series.

New Xbox 360 Wireless headset announcd alongside new Xbox 360 media remote with Live TV

If you’ve ever played online for an extended period of time then you may notice that the original Xbox 360 headset is more or less a piece of plastic junk that can easily break. Now there is another headset available to the market which is the original Xbox 360 Wireless Headset which was also seen to be relatively bad. Also few, if any, people knew about the media remote you could purchase for the console.

Well Microsoft and Redmond will be releasing two new versions of these peripheras. The new Xbox 360 Wireless Headset will contain Bluetooth technology and be available in November of this year for $50. The Bluetooth will make the Xbox 360 Wireless Headset be able to work with devices that have Bluetooth support. Unfortunately the Xbox 360 doesn’t have Bluetooth which means it will still use the normal radio frequencies.

The new Xbox 360 Media Remote will cost $20 and will match your shiny Xbox 360 slim. It also has a button for Live TV which will allow the user to access “Live TV, if provided on the Xbox 360 by your TV service provider, can also be controlled with the Xbox 360 Media Remote.” This may be the Live TV service that was announced during E3, which means that this November release may also bring with it the Live TV service.

If you’ve been thinking that your Infamous 2 user generated mission needs a fancy new vehicle, but are afraid that what you are looking for just isn’t there to place in the game you may want to pick up this package. Sucker Punch and Sony have announced that they are releasing a user generated content DLC package which is entirely free and includes five different vehicles from the single player game that can be used in UGC.

The vehicles can be seen above, and another new feature has been added to the user-generated content mode. Players can now search through various user generated content missions through a new search feature which is accessible by pausing the game. This means you will never run out of things to fill full of electricity and destroy with your crimson or blue lightning.

Especially considering this bundle follows suit with the past two, being entirely pay what you want.You can choose to split up your payment into four separate groups, two of these are the EFF and Child’s Play charities while the other two are Wolffire Games and the developers of the titles.

Anyone that purchases two PC copies of the game through their digital partners (Steam, SEGA E-Store and others) will receive two extra copies of the game to gift for free.

Video games are much better when you play with friends and it’s nice to be getting something for free.

Renegade Ops will be available for Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network and PC in September for 1200 Microsoft points or $15.

Kinectimals: Now with Bears! First Screenshots Revealed!

Do you like cuddly bears? Do you like playing with them while they toot on whistles and ride around in toy vehicles? If you answered yes to both, then you will be elated to know that Microsoft’s upcoming “Kinectimals: Now With Bears!” is coming out a bit later this year. From the looks of it, this expansion of sorts will add in Pandas, Grizzlies, and several other variants of bear cubs that fans of the Kinect title should love to see. Also included will be a brand new island for players to interact with their beary fuzzy friends.

No official date has been given for Kinectimals: Now With Bears! except for a “Fall” launch window, but you can check out the fresh batch of screenshots below and we will keep you updated as more information comes out.

The Sims 3 Town Life Stuff Pack is now out now in stores today. As a Stuff Pack, this game add-on delivers more content into the game with an emphasis on town life (hence the name). In this Stuff Pack, new community lots and locations such as gyms, libraries and laundromats have been included into the game. Along with a bunch of new items, clothes, hairstyles and everything in between that you have come to expect from a Sims Stuff Pack.

Hopefully this Stuff Pack will keep players satisfied till the next big expansion packs comes out in October (that’s The Sims 3 Pets for anyone hasn’t been keeping attention).
