Frogger, for his 30th anniversary has decided to come back in three dimensions with Frogger 3D for the Nintendo 3DS. Frogger 3D will feature all-new graphics, new level design and six worlds to explore with over 60 challenging stages. Explore New York, the Far East and even other dimensions.

In Single Player mode, you’ll have to dash, jump and duck past life-threatening hazards. Players will have all new elements and environments to maneuver through as Frogger makes his way up skyscrapers, and even crossing a sushi bar while avoiding predators.
Players can also show off their skills in Street Pass battles where the object is to avoid becoming road-kill by scooting past speeding vehicles zooming along multiple lanes of opposing traffic. In Forever mode, you’ll  get Déjà-vu when looking at the maps but the friendly confines of Frogger’s safety zones are removed. Players will have to progress through infinite boards as they try to attain Frogger immortality and land in the top spot on Street Pass rankings. Players will also be able to change up gameplay by competing in 4 player matches.

First introduced in 1981, Frogger is widely considered a classic and was noted for both its novel gameplay and theme. For more information about Frogger and its 30th Anniversary celebration activities, please visit konami.com/frogger.

Konami’s pre-E3 event has shown us many things so far but this is perhaps the most vague of them all. Konami has revealed that they are working on a new Contra title but they have given absolutely zero information about it. The only information that was shown was a firey C with the words “They’re Coming” underneath of it.

When they are coming, what they are coming to and how they are coming were not revealed and I’m sure that we will learn more about the title when E3 officially kicks off next week. Or more like we will hear more information about it whenever Konami feels like sharing with the rest of the world. But for now, watch out for flaming Cs.

Today at Konami’s E3 Pre-Show, Hideo Kojima, the master mind behind the Metal Gear franchise showed off their new engine dubbed, “Fox Engine”. This new tech went into development directly after completion of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and is designed for multi-platform use. In the video you were able to catch a small glimpse of the engine running with generic assets for some testing, but he did confirm that his secret project will make use of this engine in addition to the recently announced “Transfarring” system which will allow game save states to be transferred between the PS3 and PSP.

No release date or time frame was mentioned.

Besides the HD collection of Silent Hill, Konami announced that they have even more plants for the Silent Hill franchise. They revealed that they are working on a new title called Silent Hill: Book of Memories. The game is going to be set for release on Sony’s upcoming NGP (or maybe PS Vita if rumors are true). The title will be exclusive to Sony’s handheld title.

Unfortunately not much information was given about the game. No plot details have been given and it was said to be released “later on down the road” from when the Silent Hill Collection would be released. Meaning that at the moment, all fans can do is be assured that they are working on another Silent Hill title after Silent Hill: Downpour.

The title will be available on both the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 and will be released in 2012, unfortunately not much more was mentioned on the title but thankfully they are realizing that Zone of Enders is still valuable franchise.
