Mortal Kombat was on my list of games I wish I played at E3 2010, but didn’t have time to check out. The latest screens have me wishing I was in Germany, hanging out with other game writers, drinking large steins of beer, and playing this game. It looks old-school cool! These latest screens feature Cyrax, Sektor, Reptile, Kung Lao, Kitana, and more. Check ’em out!

You know…I’m just going to wait for RRODisHere to comment on this one. Ha!
Back at E3 2010 I wrote the following about Namco Bandai’s Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Combining action, puzzle solving, and escort missions, Ninja Theory’s Enslaved: Odyssey to the West offers variety, a cool setting, and a dose of Gollum.
The game has a unique look and some fun “imitation cooperative” gameplay. While I’m not as high on this one as Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom, I’m keeping an eye on this title as well. Kindly check out these new screens and share your thoughts (like a Care Bear!).

I’m really not an MMO guy anymore (went through a bad EverQuest phase and I’m scared to be that way again), but the more I see of DC Universe Online, the more excited I am for the game. I’m pretty sure this game will drag me back to the dark side. I’m a videogame nerd and a comic-book geek. I don’t think I can resist.
Check out the latest trailer when you get a chance and let me know if you’re interested in forming a superhero team with me. We can be The Super Buddies, Part Deux!
Remember my Shacknews preview of Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom from E3 2010? At the time I said:
Flying under the radar at E3 2010 was Game Republic’s upcoming title that combines Ico-like graphics, stealth, puzzles, and an adorably goofy creature that looks like a Studio Ghibli reject. The diverse gameplay on display was fun and the visuals were a joy. If it all comes together, this could be one of 2010’s sleeper hits.
I’m still looking forward to this game. I think it’s going to surprise a lot of people. For now, please check out these screens of Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom

Here’s fresh batch of WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011

A four-player cooperative Ratchet & Clank game from the awesome people at Insomniac?!? In the immortal words of “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, “Oh hell yeah!!!” Here’s the scoop from Insomniac studio director Chad Dezern:
We knew from our earliest meetings that we wanted to give players a chance to play in the Ratchet Universe with Ratchet and Clank at the same time. And after we started, we felt an almost moral obligation to include Captain Qwark and Dr. Nefarious; there was just too much comedy potential in bringing this group together for us to pass up the opportunity. Their bumbling idiocy, prickly antagonism, and unfettered evil was a perfect reflection of how we play All 4 One here in the office. I’m looking forward to telling the story of how the four of them find themselves together…
The game is about cooperative play through and through. We want to make it easy to get together with friends and family, get in a game and have fun in the Ratchet universe. We’re working hard to capture the feeling of fighting through amazing battles with other players, whether they are on the couch next to you or playing online half-a-world away.
This game will definitely be used in a future RPad.tv invitational. I’m so, So, SO hyped for All 4 One!!!
The latest LittleBigPlanet 2 trailer features Sackboy torching a cat. That’s cool. It also shows numerous features of the game’s story mode and creation mode. It looks seriously awesome. I hope you check it out and share your thoughts.
Sony has unveiled the $399.99 PlayStation Sports Champions Move Bundle, which features a 320GB and other goodies. Here’s the scoop from Sony Computer Entertainment America director John Koller:
The 320GB PS3 system will hit store shelves on September 19, in conjunction with the launch of PlayStation Move. It will be part of the PS3 Sports Champions Move bundle, which includes one PlayStation Move motion controller, PlayStation Eye camera, a copy of Sports Champions on Blu-ray disc, and bonus Blu-ray game demo disc — all in one complete package for $399.99 (MSRP). The value included in this bundle is incredible and we know this will further add to the exceptionally high demand for the new platform.
Marketing speak aside, it looks like a decent deal for gamers that don’t have a PS3 and are interested in Move. Any of you going to bite the bullet on this one? What do you think of the bundle’s value?
I know that a bunch of you are hyped for Killzone 3
