I usually don’t like to post news concerning release dates for games but since I’m a complete whore for anything related to No More Heroes, so I thought I would make an exception.  Ubisoft has announced that No More Heroes 2 will be released in January, just as No More Heroes was last year.

Are the R&D devs at Nintendo and Sony drinking some sort of special kool-aid or something? A few weeks ago we got a glimpse at the Nintendo bouncy ball patent meant to simulate house riding amongst other things and shortly after that Sony’s laugh and facial recognition patent were unearthed.

Nintendo makes Wii horse peripheral (chaps optional)

When it comes to Nintendo, their ability to make a strange new peripherals is matched only by their ability to repackage and resell old franchises. Speaking of which, it's almost gotten to the point where the Peripheral has de facto become it's own Nintendo franchise up there with the likes of Mario and Zelda.  Cement for their claim to peripheral fame came frame.. I mean from the announcement of the mendbending assault on reason that was the Wii Vitality Sensor (whose existence has been quiet ever since).

The image above depicts the earth shattering moment in which Nickleback's lead "singer" and part time Jesus impersonator Chad Kroeger, was slayed by Diifii in Wii Sports Resort durring a  battle in which he bet his entire career. Chad will now pull every Nickleback song from radio circulation and quit music for ever.

I wish. But sadly enough, I just found a photo with a Mii character that looked a lot like him. I was also hoping if I  wrote it down it might come true. Dare to dream.

So far this gen the Star Wars franchise hasn’t really had the best track record with the games released so far as "The Force Unleashed" was just ok and the long awaited “Star Wars: Battlefront 3” was cancelled due to some backdoor shadiness on the part of Rebellion.

Activision's Emperor, oops I mean CEO, wants to raise game prices

If there was any doubt that Activision has officially turned into the evil empire then I think the latest comments from CEO Bobby Kotick will surely cement your opinion on the company being entirely focused on making tons of money while they shaft consumers. 

During the Activision Conference Call when an analyst from Piper Jaffray brought up the issue of pricing Bobby Kotick replied that if given the chance he would actually raise prices for their products. For this to fully sink in and I’ll post the exact excerpt from the call:

Is Unity 3D the future development platform for Mobile, Browser, PSN, Wii and XBLA?

There two kinds of announcements in the video game industry. One is huge and slaps consumers across the face and often sets the the Internet on fire. For example, PS3 Slim photos or mock ups of what a Microsoft hand held console might look like. The other type of announcement requires a little more thought and discussion before the true value is discovered. This is one of those announcements.

Flashy? No.

Important? Very much so.

While most North American Gamers are bewildered by the hold that games like monster hunter have on fans across the ocean. There is no denying this release is special for another reason. Not only is Monster Hunter 3 making it's Nintendo Wii appearance, but it is also being bundled with yes a Kuro Black Wii. That we first previewed a few months back...... Did you hear that right?

For some time now we’ve been teased about a unique Disney project Warren Spector and his team at Junction Point is working on. Details on the project have been extremely sparse aside from the game being called or at least codenamed “Epic Mickey” and that the Nintendo Wii may be its platform of choice.
