Paper Mario 3DS Trailer

By Mark

Mario again, this time in the shape of Paper Mario 3DS as someone has taken a video of the latest trailer played at the Nintendo World even this past weekend.

The new take on the game this time around is 'stickers' as you will be collecting these and then placing them upon the map to unlock new areas and they'll also be affecting the outcome of battles. Nothing groundbreaking but it's something to keep it fresh.



The 3DS launches in Japan next month and here are the games to accompany it (prices are in yen):

Nintendogs + Cats (4,800)
Winning Eleven Soccer 3D (5,800)
Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition (4,800)
Samurai Warriors Chronicle (6,090)
Puzzle Bobble 3D (4,980)
Ridge Racer 3D (6,090)
Battle of the Giants: Dinosaurs 3D (5,040)
Professor Layton and the Mask of Miracles (5,980)

By Mark

Behold. Somebody has captured a video of Mario Kart 3DS in its entirety and showcases some gameplay. It's pretty standard fair for Mario Kart really: power ups, ink, shells, bannanas and nice looking tracks to go at.

Thief 4 Inbound?

By Mark


It seems that Thief 4 will be revealed at GDC with a session being planned on the game entitled 'Stealing Sound: Generative Music in THIEF' and the blurb states it's the first time the game has really been spoken about in a public sense. 


That's all there is for now apart from the oh so clever THI4F title....What's wrong with Thief 4 I just don't know.

Teaser for HD Remake of Beyond Good and Evil? Sure

By Mark

Ubisoft is bringing the classic Beyond Good and Evil back to us not in the form of the forever questioned sequel but rather in a HD remake of the original. It's scheduled to hit Xbox Live and Playstation Network later this year and will feature:

  • 1080p Visuals
  • Retweaked character models and textures
  • New original soundtrack
Add those in to what the game was already and hey we have a winner, here's the teaser anyway folks.

A Sort Of Recap Trailer For LBP2

By Mark

While I've posted somewhat countless trailers and beta footage of this game, there is now a new trailer that shows just about everything the game has to offer. Again the focus is to show and prove that almost anything is possible with the level creation mechanics and Media Molecule are doing their best to drive that point home.

Content by players for players so to speak.
