Surprise 4X Fantasy Game Endless Legend Coming To Steam This Spring

You know that game Amplitude Studios is working on? Yea - it's called Dungeon of the Endless, right? Wrong! Well, both actually - though that game is coming, Amplitude has revealed it is also working on a fantasy 4X strategy game due out this Spring called Endless Legend. Huh, multitasking indies - I like it.

2D Arcade Fighter AquaPazza Coming To The PS3 This Holiday, Thanks Atlus!

Wow, you've never heard of AquaPazza? Noob! Nah I kid, I actually thought it was some kind of waterproof pizza until just a few days ago. Turns out AquaPazza is actually an awesome looking 2D fighter developed by Examu, and is supposed to essentially be a dream matchup between characters from various visual novels series. The source material for characters and such is mainly visual novels published by Aquaplus -- who also published this game itself in Japan -- as well as those by Leaf, a subset of Aquaplus that focuses mainly on more adult-oriented content. Sounds like quite the combo.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD May Be Part Of A Wii U Bundle This Holiday

Though it may not be quite as commercially successful as Mario, personally I can't think of a better value than a console that comes with a pre-packed Zelda title. Whether it's bundled or just available on day one, having Zelda as the first thing you play on your shiny new box is a surefire way to feed the flame of your next-gen console excitement. The Wii U never really had that at launch last year, but that may all be about to change. According to a report from Destructoid, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD may be strapped onto 32GB Wii Us 'round the globe come October.

Xbox One Self-Publishing Program Finally Detailed By Microsoft

Not to be outdone by Sony, it seems Microsoft has finally spilled the beans on how exactly indie developers can, and presumably will, go about self-publishing their games on the Xbox One.

F1 2013 Reveals A Sweet 1988 Ferrari And New Drivers

I'm not enough of a Formula One geek to instantly start drooling/sweating/other bodily function at the mention of a 1988 Ferrari F1-87/88C, but that doesn't mean I'm not enough of a general geek for those things to start happening once I actually see a picture. Wow. That there is a beauty. I suppose it should be considered good news, then, that this very vehicle will be included in this year's edition of Codemasters' yearly F1 simulator, F1 2013.

Sony Announces PlayStation Vita Pets, Almost As Cool As Chia Pets

Was Nintendogs just too low-fi to satiate your unstoppable HD pet-sim cravings? Did you find yourself wishing you could take your canine friends someplace less lame, like a dark gritty mine or a "spooky graveyard?" Is tossing the Frisbee in the yard like every other pet owner just too mainstream for you? Well, apparently the gamer I just described does exist, and Sony's got his or her back with it's upcoming game PlayStation Vita Pets.

Capcom Essentials delivers Resident Evil 6 And Four Other Games For $60

Hey, what a good deal! Wait, it is a good deal... right? Capcom just announced on its official blog the existence of something called Capcom Essentials - basically a bunch of Capcom classics bundled up and sold at a supposedly more attractive price. These "classics" include the likes of -- wait for it -- Resident Evil 6! Mega Man 10! Devil May Cry 4! Now, it's somewhat debatable whether these are classics - DMC 4 was good and all, but Resident Evil 6? Hardly a classic in most people's book. Mega Man 10? Okay, but why 10? There are a fair amount of reasons the "essentials" moniker is debatable, but commenter Ryan on the official blog post says it best.

Exclusive Interview With Scott McGehee And David Siegel On What Maisie Knew

Scott McGehee and David Siegel have been directing films together for decades now, but What Maisie Knew is in many ways unlike anything they've ever done before. The film tells the story of young girl Maisie, whose parents are divorced and locked in a bitter custody battle. It's an excellent movie and to see our full thoughts on it, you can check out our very own Matt Donato's review.

BioShock Infinite: Burial At Sea Gives Elizabeth A New Look

Cosplayers rejoice! *Crickets* Hey, c'mon now, I know there are Elizabeth cosplayers out there, I've seen pics online. Not only that, but Irrational Games said so in a recent post on their official blog, revealing Elizabeth's new costume from the upcoming and downloadable BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea. Looks pretty sharp to me.

Planes isn't just tolerable - it's downright bad. It has redeeming moments and is visually pleasing, but overall there's no one target audience that will truly enjoy what Disney has to offer here. It flops for kids, teens, and adults alike, and is laden with odd and mildly offensive gender and racial stereotypes. Fans of Disney and Pixar classics deserve better. Unless you're a junkie for the technical side of animation, avoid this one at all costs.
