For the thousands of fans who can’t wait to sink their teeth into the anticipated title Prototype for the PS3 and Xbox 360, they might want to check out Wildstorm’s comic book, Prototype. It’s available now at your nearest comic book store. This is the first issue of a six-part mini-series. The series was co-written by James Palmiotti and Justin Gray. The amazing artwork was done by Darick Robertson. It’s a must buy, so what are you waiting for?

What happened to Square-Enix?

Square-Enix’s reputation and image is dwindling every passing day. The last couple of games of theirs that hit the market in the past years have received mixed reviews, lukewarm sales and most importantly, they were less than entertaining. So what happened to the Final Fantasy publisher? Some say, their greed for money by siding with mighty Xbox 360, others blame their poor choice of newly introduced IPs.  But at the end of the day, Square-Enix is damaging itself.

Square-Enix and Micrsoft:

Since 2008, Square-Enix has released a dozen of JRPGs on the Xbox 360 and not one on the Sony Ps3. Square -Enix’s strategy was indeed confusing, seeing that Sony’s brand has also been home to JRPGs. Most of Square-Enix’s titles in the past were PlayStation exclusives. Some might have thought there would be a sense of patriotism between the two Japanese companies, but Square-Enix pulled a 360 (get it). Anticipated multi-platform titles such as “The Last Remnant” were released on the 360 first, with (to this day) no concrete date set for the PS3. Ps3 owners were left thinking that Square-Enix definitely favored Microsoft’s console over Sony ’s PS3. The director of “The Last Remnant” stated the company as a whole, did not have a favorite console and would continue to develop titles for any console that’s available on the market. He then slightly contradicts himself by saying the 360 is very easy to develop for and the team had an enjoyable experience during the development process of “The Last Remnant”, too bad game was disappointing.

However some (if not all) of the titles that were release on the 360 didn’t even come close to the usual caliber of Square-Enix’s JRPGs. So PS3 owners really didn’t miss out anything. 

Square-Enix in 2009:

It’s 2009 and Square Enix hasn’t announced anything, except some concept art for some upcoming unknown game. About 2 years ago, the president of Square-Enix, Mr. Yoichi Wada stated in an interview, that Sony needs to change its stratigic plan in order to succeed this generation. It appears the tables have turned. It’s no denying that Square-Enix needs to make a hit title before FF XIII release next year or they’re going continue to take hit each quarter.

Final comments:

Square-Enix took a gamble siding with Xbox 360 console this generation. Unfortunately it’s not paying off. Whether the rumors are true, that they’re secretly receiving funds from Microsoft is irrelevant. If the 360 is indeed easy to develop for, they need to make a hit title besides the Final Fantasy series.

“The multi-million selling Dynasty Warriors® series has long been renowned for pitting a lone warrior against an army of thousands. The highly-anticipated action game reinvents the Dynasty Warriors brand of action into this year’s hottest multi-player experience on the PSP system.

DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is a game unlike any other in the series. For the first time, up to four friends can join together to form a “Strikeforce.” As a team, players will travel to different towns, embark on quests, and use coordinated assaults to conquer heavily-armed fortresses and colossal beasts.

End of level bosses await intrepid heroes with a multitude of guises and deadly attacks while enemies, spread throughout each stage, possess much greater levels of intelligence and more powerful attacks. So now more than ever it’s imperative that players work together as a team and find ways to overcome the challenges and obstacles that stand between them and victory.

New “Fury” transformations give characters even greater supernatural abilities and attacks, including lightning fast speed and the ability to fly. Warriors can now take to the skies and face off against their foes in spectacular aerial combat.

Later this year, KOEI will offer new content for DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce. Additional quests will be available free-of-charge, exclusively through PlayStation®Store.

DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is developed by Omega Force and is for 1 to 4 players. Multi-player play is via ad-hoc mode only. This game is rated “T” (Teen- Violence) by the ESRB.”

THANK YOU KOEI!

And folks, this is a contest brought to you by Killa-Indian.

First Footage Of Turtels In Time This Game Is A Classic

One of the most anticipated Playstation 3 games of 2009 will be released on May 26th. However, if you look hard enough, you may be able to find the Infamous at retail stores right now.

At least two different people were able to somehow acquire a copy of Infamous more than three weeks early. They were kind enough to share their exploits on GameSpot and NeoGAF forums.

Infamous went to gold status on April 15th, so the broken street date was to be expected sooner or later. Hopefully, this will lead to Sony releasing Infamous early (as was the case with Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction) so impatient fans can get their hands on the long-awaited exclusive title.

LAS VEGAS – It took just 359 seconds to add the latest devastating chapter to a legacy that will last for decades.

Manny Pacquiao’s flurried fists made short work of Ricky Hatton on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and delivered the most emphatic proof yet that boxing has a superstar for the ages operating at his peak.

Pacquiao sent the Englishman crashing to the canvas twice in a frenetic first round, then sealed the contest with a brutal left hook that had Hatton out cold on his back with one tick remaining in the second round.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. may have announced his comeback from a brief and scarcely-believable retirement on Saturday morning. But there can be no doubt that Pacquiao is boxing’s undisputed king as he continues to ride a remarkable wave of momentum.

“Our strategy was the one punch,” Pacquiao said. “Left hook. Right hook. That was going to be the key to this fight.”

The Filipino fighter is a quiet and reserved man out of the ring, but between the ropes he morphs into an electrifying machine – and Hatton felt his full force.

The Hatton camp had hoped their man’s power would be telling, yet he simply had no response to Pacquiao’s pace and precision. A right hook put Hatton down with 54 seconds remaining in round one and proved to be the beginning of the end.

“I knew it was over,” said Freddie Roach, Pacquiao’s trainer. “Ricky fights the same way over and over. He doesn’t have the ability to adjust.”

As Pacquiao moved in for the finish in the second round, Hatton tried to cling on only to be sent down again with a fierce straight left. Doctors immediately rushed to the aid of Hatton, who eventually and thankfully was able to walk from the ring under his own steam.

“I am surprised this fight was so easy,” said Pacquiao. “I did work hard in my training camp and it paid off. This is as big a victory for me as when I beat Oscar De La Hoya.”

That December triumph over De La Hoya did not convince the entire boxing fraternity of Pacquiao’s ability, primarily as the Golden Boy’s powers had so clearly dimmed from his prime. Now there is no speculation. Pacquiao is the top dog, until someone proves otherwise in the ring.

Floyd Mayweather Sr. was a no-show at the postfight news conference, leaving Hatton’s co-trainer, Lee Beard, to explain the mauling by Pacquiao.

“We knew about Manny’s speed and that it could play a factor in the fight,” Beard said. “What you saw was two rounds of action and Ricky got caught.”

Roach’s status as a trainer grows in line with each victory his top fighter posts and it became clear his game plan was perfect. Hatton could not avoid Pacquiao, who landed with 73 of his 127 punches. The Brit could only land 18 of 78.

“This is no shock at all,“ Roach said. “Hatton pumps his hands before he throws a punch, and it makes him a sucker for the right hook.

“Manny is a monster. He is the best fighter ever. There is no surprise here.”

Defeat was a bitter blow to the thousands of Hatton fans among the 16,262 in attendance who had journeyed across the Atlantic but saw their dreams dashed within a few brutal minutes.

The typical symphony of chanting carried on even after their man had been sparked out, but it may not strike up again. Hatton, who was alert in his locker room before being taken to the hospital, is one of the most popular boxers ever with an incredible fan base, but his fighting future is now in serious doubt.

For Pacquiao, the future is brighter than ever, and his legend continues to grow.

Said Pacquiao: “I can fight anybody.”
