Grand Theft Auto V Will Be Out September 17

Grand Theft Auto V Out September 17

Yes, it's a few months later than expected, but we do finally have a firm release date of September 17 for the much anticipated Grand Theft Auto V.  This is only for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, but that is only because there has not been a confirmation of the game's release on the Wii U or PC.

I'm really hoping for a PC release, if not a Wii U release, because I'm finally going to have a decent gaming rig here in a few weeks.

Nintendo Wii U Direct - 1/23/13


There was a new Nintendo Direct broadcast this morning which was centered around the Wii U.  No one was really expecting much in the way of actual news, but HOLY CATS WIND WAKER HD REMAKE!

Sorry, I couldn't hold that back any longer.  I am so excited for that news!  

That wasn't all that was announced either!  Nintendo is working on two updates to speed uo the system, one for launching games and one for the switching between menus.  One will be out this Spring, and the other this Summer.  Also announced was the Wii U Virtual Console (with discounted prices for games you already purchased on the Wii), a new Mario Kart Wii U title, a new 3D Mario Wii U title (made by the same team behind Super Mario 3D land, Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem, Miiverse on Smartphones this Spring, the ability to take pictures of your pikmin in Pikmin 3 and post them to Miiverse, and a crap ton more!

I think it is safe to say that this was the best Nintendo Direct since, well, ever!

Resident Evil: Revelations Making Port on PS3, Wii U, 360, and PC

Resident Evil Revelations Coming to 360, PS3, Wii U, PC

Get it?  Making port?  See, because it's on a boat... nevermind.

Yes, Capcom has made the speculation official.  One of the best games on the Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil: Revelations, is getting all HD'd up and making its way to all three major consoles and the PC.  The game will be available on May 21 in North America and May 24 in Europe.

This isn't just a port though, as Capcom is adding some characters, weapons, and a harder difficulty.  If you don't own it on the 3DS, the $50 price tag is a steal, especially since this game was better than Resident Evil 6 in every way.  If you do happen to own it on the 3DS, it might be worth buying again, if for no other reason than to play as Hunk in Raid mode.

Project X Zone Coming to the United States!

Project X Zone Coming to North America

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the states, and in the spirit of unity, it has been announced that the awesome looking 3DS title Project X Zone will be getting a release in North America, Australia, Latin America, and Europe.

If you are unfamiliar with this title, it is a turn-based strategy and fighting game smooshed together with over two hundred characters from over twenty nine game series released by three different companies.  So, if you've ever wanted to play a game with characters from .hack, Resident Evil, and Valkyria Chronicles, this is something you might want to look into.


Project X Zone will be released this summer.
