5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
The first was action adventure Ninja Gaiden 2 with Tomonobu Itagaki from Temco showing a blood splattered (sure the blood was Green!) example of game-play from this up coming brutal title. The severed limbs were flying when the on screen protagonist brought out the chainsaw based weapon. Ninja Gaiden 2 is slated for a June 3rd release. One of my favourite games for the original Xbox and PC was Fable, and RPG from Lionhead Studios and the mind of Peter Molyenux. Molyneux was available to give the GDC audience a run through Fable 2 for Xbox 360. This included a pre Fable 2 release Xbox Arcade Pub style gambling game that will allow players of Fable 2 to accumulate in game gold for use in the full game once purchased. Molyneux said, "I've played role playing games all my life and I love them - I absolutely love them - but I've been lonely." Hence Fable 2 has been designed around a drop-in style of cooperative play not really tackled in this kind of RPG before. Finally Cliffy Blezinski showed a teaser trailer for the upcoming Gears of War 2. "Bigger, better, and far more badass in every way." Promised Cliffy B as he announced the planned release date of November this year. Apart from “Bigger and Better” no other Gears of War details were given. |
