Big Smile Reviews - Zelda Spirit Tracks Review

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks​ is the fifteenth installment of Nintendo's series. The game was released worldwide in December of 2009 and features a cel-shaded art style similar to that of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass titles.

QuarterSave: Drunk Shakespearian Talk EP24

This week’s episode features a change of hands in terms of show host. Robert takes the lead in the discuss giving me a much needed break from trying to harness the madness that formulates from a group of drunk geeks getting together to rant about video games (while allowing me drink far more than usual). The show features talk on some of the big announcements from this week, including but not limited to: Sonic 4, The Prison Break Game, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, and Hamlet.

EA sets their release schedule for the next year

Last week was THQ’s turn to boast about their financial earnings and today it was Electronic Arts’ turn.  Overall earnings for the company were ok (they only lost a measly $82 million) but most gamers could care less about things concerning percentages and millions of dollars earned/lost as most simply care about when the games are coming out.

Dead Rising 2 will be making an apperance this week

With today being the slow news day that are most Monday’s I’m resorted to writing a quasi-fluff story based on a piece of Twitter info. Yes, once again Twitter is showing that it’s becoming an actual source for news instead of being a place where I can post that I’m having a nervous breakdown.

After a long wait some details on L.A. Noire have finally surfaced

Amidst all the Super Bowl hoopla and general laziness that most of us participated in this past weekend some interesting info popped up concerning L.A. Noire. Last week we got a look at the Game Informer cover story and a promise that the game will feature “revolutionary” facial animation. Not only do we have some details on what L.A. Noire is doing on the gameplay and technical front but we also have a potential release date for Rockstar’s noir adventure.

LucasArts announces Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars

If your Lego Star Wars appetite wasn’t satisfied with the previous three video game iterations then you’re in luck as LucasArts today announced Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars.  Once again developer Traveler's Tales is stepping in to provide another installment of the widely popular Lego Stars Wars series with a new title that promises to combine new gameplay elements with the simple and somewhat goofy Lego style gameplay that’s expected from the franchise.

[Update 2] PSA: New episode of the Lazlow Show on tonight

These days the world of talk radio is practically dead. With the airwaves now filled with nothing but sports and political talk the options for entertaining listening programs are extremely limited. But fear not as the always entertaining Lazlow, best known for appearing on the radio stations in GTA, is back with another live radio show this weekend.

QuarterSave: Mass Effect 2 Special

As we promised Rob and I got together this week to discuss, in-depth, our feelings for the Mass Effect sequel. This episode takes a break from the regular weekly format, and we basically just wing a discussion about everything we liked, or didn’t, about Mass Effect 2.

Concept art surfaces for EA's Road Rash, Syndicate and Oliver Twist

It’s time for another installment of video game concept art being leaked on the web and this time it revolves around a bundle of presumably canceled EA projects. The amazing internet sleuth that is the Superannuation blog has uncovered a bundle of art that former EA artist Ross Dearsley posted on his blog.

Sony is taking ModNation Racers to the PSP

ModNation Racers hasn’t even been released on the PS3 yet but Sony already has big plans for the franchise as today a PSP version of the game was announced.  Even though the game is being ported to the PSP it will still offer the full list of customizable options that its PS3 brethren can do.  So that means players will be able to create as many MGS, Super Mario or Killzone inspired characters, cars and tracks as they want and then share their content with the rest of the ModNation Racers community.

Another look at the Erotica Portraits of No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise

When it comes to innuendos and sexual overtones the No More Heroes franchise doesn’t hold back.  The game is chock full of double entendres and the hero of the game is a sex starved otaku who charges his massive beam katana between his legs. Nuff said if you ask me.  With the release of No More Heroes: Heroes’ Paradise now set for April, publisher Marvelous Entertainment has released some additional images of the pre-order bonuses the game offers.

Get your own Big Daddy next month

BioShock’s Big Daddy has become a gaming icon and people simply can’t get enough of the character. Some people even go as far as to construct elaborate Big Daddy costumes that look like they’re ripped out of a potential BioShock movie.  For those who want a Big Daddy product that shows off their love for the franchise while still being slightly innocent then they should check out the Big Daddy Bouncer plush doll from Neca.

L.A. Noire is ready for its public interrogation

It shouldn’t come as that much of a surprise that the next issue of Game Informer will feature the world debut on L.A. Noire. When Rockstar revealed that the long in development sandbox noire game would be shown off soon many came to the conclusion that it would be shown via Game Informer due to the history Rockstar has with the magazine.  Now that’s what I call some good detective work.

Illfonic opens their doors to indie developers

Indie publisher/developer Illfonic announced today their mission to breathe some fresh air in the game industry by opening their publishing division to help small indie projects get released.  Illfonic hopes to bring a fresh creative spin on things through games that aren’t only fun and help define a genre but also bring underground culture (think buttery beats and cool art) to the world of gaming.

First Look of Fallout: New Vegas with new Teaser Trailer

Fallout 3 was on the top of almost everyone’s list back in 2008. It is an astonishingly well put together game which eradicated all the concerns that most people felt about the game switching development teams and being thrust into a first-person setting. With the success of the series, there was inevitably the announcement of a sequel to follow. Today we get our first look at Bethesda/Obsidian’s follow up to the 2008 smash-hit in the form of New Vegas’ first teaser trailer.
