Then Play The BIGS 2

It’s the last stop. The final destination. The BIG SHOW. It’s where dreams born in backyards are finally realized. Where the fences are FARTHER. The grandstands are LARGER. And the spotlight is BRIGHTER. It’s where thieves run FASTER, pitchers throw HARDER and the sluggers go DEEPER. Where the bats are BIGGER, the spikes are SHARPER and the comebacks are harder to swallow. It’s where home runs are RUTHIAN and fastballs CATCH FIRE. It’s where a monster lurks in left. Where bombers terrorize the night. And where the confines aren’t always so friendly. It’s THE BIGS. And everything about them just got BIGGER.

The 2kSports team have created what could be one of the best Baseball games ever made. Available on major consoles :

Xbox 360

Playstation 3

Wii

Playstation 2

Sony PSP

If want a great work out I’d recommend playing The BIGS 2 on the Wii. It makes you feel like you actually there playing.

Take-Two chairman : Strauss Zelnick has announced that Bioshock 2 will be delayed until the fiscal year 2010. So there will be no return to Rapture this year. This is what Zelnick said in his announcement :

We concluded that moving the release of BioShock 2 into fiscal year 2010 was the right decision for the product. We believe the result will be a more compelling consumer experience and a better performing product in the marketplace.

Don’t despare with the line up of great games coming out this Chrismas on all consoles it wont hurt to have Bioshock come out next year.

Check out Madworld by Sega .. This game is hardcore and probably one of the most action packed aggressive /goriest games on the Nintendo Wii.

Details below :

MADWORLD is an inventive third-person action game exclusively for Wii and has a unique black and white style, depicting an incredibly sharp backdrop that straddles graphic novels and 3D worlds.

As players battle opponents, they must master the use of various weapons and items found within their environment, such as chainsaws and street signs, while entertaining sports commentary adds to the thirdperson gameplay. With its irreverent humour and over-the-top violence, MADWORLD will deliver a unique core gaming experience.

Features:

Killer looks – black and white stylised graphics based on comic books and graphic novels deliver a stunning and unique looking game.

Exciting, visceral gameplay – fast and instinctive arcade-style gameplay with brutal finishing moves delivered by the Wii Remote and Nunchuk.

Over-the-top violence and irreverent content – exaggerated characters, murderous moves, monstrous bosses & outrageous commentary add to the irreverent and humorous tone.

Resident Evil 4 Apple Iphone Released Accidently Early !! ??

Seems like a few Japanese iPhone customers managed to get their hands on the iPhone Edition of Resident Evil 4 which was released in the Japanese iTunes store very very briefly before it was pulled off its shelves for reasons unknown. We have managed to get some screenshots and video gameplay. Which isnt too bad.

One thing you might want to consider when watching the video is that the speed and gameplay might be a little smoother on the new 3Gs models.

Check it out for yourselves and be the judges. It looks better than Resident Evil : Degeneration which is available for download from the iTunes store at the moment.

Either way this minor interuption shouldn’t cause too many issues. We should see RE4 back in the iTunes store soon. Fingers Crossed 😉

Resident Evil 4 coming to the IPHONE !!

News just in from the guys at Capcom-Unity !! Im going to rehash this :

Capcom_UnityNews from Capcom Mobile: RE4 will be coming to iPhone end of July beginning with Japan, rest of world to follow shortly thereafter. Woo!about 5 hours ago from TweetDeck
This is going to be fantastic. Resident Evil is most certainly one of the best Resident Evil’s in the series. With over 40 + hours of gameplay when it arrives on the iPHONE prepare to stop everything else your doing and get stuck into zombie killing action all over again.
As the Capcom guys have noted it will first be released in Japan and then flow its way down to the rest of the world. Lets hope that Australia is a close second after Japan. No indication on pricing at the moment, but from previous titles such as Resident Evil Generation I believe that RE4 will be less than $10. Thats a great price to pay for such a fantastic game.
