So yeah, I haven't posted anything for ages. My life has been kind of hectic and after all the mess with Gamespot went down I didn't care much for this site anymore. However, I'm still around. Some times.

Anyway, check this out. Apparently Square-Enix created a subdomain which strongly gives the impression that one of the best--if not the single greatest--RPGs of all time is coming to the Nintendo DS. I know I am excited! How about you? It is not unlikely that they will redo the graphics like they did for Final Fantasy III and IV. How do you feel about that?

I think the new--not updated--graphics are alright, however, they also added in some voice work on those games. I still don't know how I feel about that. So, I want Chrono Trigger to come to the DS, but I am not particularly excited about a graphics overhaul. They might as well just clean up the old graphics and put it on a DS cartridge, but I guess they can't get away with that on a system like the DS.

That's enough rambling for now.

[UPDATE] I guess Gamespot finally caught on to this news, so you can now check out their story as well--they were slow to pick this up, though.

Soldner-X: Himmelssturmer

Check out this trailer, it is awesome! Söldner-X: Himmelsstürmer is an old fashioned side scrolling shoot 'em up like R-Type, Gradius and more obscure titles like Einhänder and SteelSaviour. It has been a long time since a good old shmup was made (without being a bullet hell type of game) and I'm really excited about it.

The game is being developed by the newly formed SideQuest Studios and is initiated by online retailer Play-Asia. It will most likely be released this year and will be for Playstation 3 and PC. It's weird that Gamespot doesn't have a game space for this one.

I really recommend you download the HD (720p) version because it really shows the game's graphical qualities.

More information can be found here.

Epic releases system requirements for Unreal Tournament 3?

Beyond Unreal claims that Epic/Midway announced the system requirements for the much anticipated Unreal Tournament 3. However, I'm having trouble finding the official press release. I'll post it anyway because Beyond Unreal isn't often wrong about this kind of stuff (but remember: it's not official until someone actually finds the press release). So here it goes:

Midway and Epic today announced the minimum and recommended system requirements for the PC version of Unreal Tournament 3, the highly anticipated first-person shooter scheduled for release in November 2007. Please see below for all information regarding these requirements along with newly released screenshots from the PC version of Unreal Tournament 3.
