But there's always some more obscure little gems that deserve our attention.
Since I'm always for these kind of "underdogs" in our modern blockbuster era of gaming, let's have a look at two games YOU SHOULD be awaiting!
First off, a little under everybody's radar, cause nobody seems like Hudson Soft anymore these days : (
there's a new nice little game coming to the wii which was until now knew as Lost In Shadow or Tower of Shadow but will finally be called A Shadow's Tale.
It will be released later this year under Konami.
I love the guys at Hudson! Being a big fan of the Bonk and Bomberman series. Those guys know how to make a gameplay fun, original and addictive.
This looks pretty beautiful. And I'm not that afraid of the final product, even knowing that their last disc-based game was Bomberman Act Zero on the Xbox 360. (come on! It was a "next gen" over the top take on Bomberman, which yes kinda looked bad and off, but played as good as the originals!)
A Shadow's Tale will be released only on Wii, and looks amazing!!
Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage from Koei is exactly what you'd expect it to be.
BADASS.
This one will be pretty similar to other past manga adaptations "Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage" on the Dreamcast and "Berserk: Millennium Falcon" on the PS2. That is, modern beat'em all fun gaming experience.
Only this time, with the power of the PS3 and Xbox 360, it will look pretty realistic and gory.
I cannot wait to try either of those two very different games~
That's what we, me and you guys, should aim for, playing different original stuff instead of the ton of identical sequels most developers seem to put out each year!
Maybe some licensing issues? :/
ReplyDeleteMaybe!
Since you have a wii, I know FORCE you to be interested in that Hudson soft game! SUPPORT the guys who created Bonk and Bomberman!! (they can't even publish themselves anymore nowadays!)
