Rise of the Argonauts
Arugala9 | 4:24 PM on 06.02.2008 6 comments


Gametrailers put up a couple more new interviews with the team behind this. One of the interviews talks about the relationship between Jason and the various Greek gods that are important in the story. Hermes, Apollo, Athena, and Ares are the most important in the story acting as a way to level up Jason. Which god you dedicate certain action to will effect you abilities and powers. They also act as a dialouge tree with different choices per god.




The other new video talks about love and how it effects the story. Jason's soon to be bride gets killed before saying I do, but after Jason has given his vows, so he goes after the golden fleece to try and bring her back to life.




Overall I think the game is shaping up nicely. Iwish they would give us a release date already though.

New Rise of the Argonauts interviews
Arugala9 | 2:04 PM on 05.16.2008 3 comments


I was starting to wonder if this game disappeared into the abyss because there hasn't been any new information on this game in a long time. Lo and behold I was checking out gametrailers and they had a couple of new interviews.They seem to be doing a good job crafting their on story with the source material avaiable and it looks good. The develpoer goes on about how they are breathing life into the world and "everyone with a name gets a story" to suck you into the world of ancient greece. One thing I like was how he talked about how if certain people die it changes the story and how bringing different party memebers changes dialogue and the banter between the party member. Reminds me of Mass Effect, which is good. Overall I'm always ready for a good action/rpg and this looks like it's shaping up nicely.

Oh no the didn't, Gamespot gives Mass Effect lower score then Assassins Creed
Arugala9 | 12:38 AM on 11.20.2007 17 comments




So, Gamespot has reviewed Mass Effect and given it an 8.5, when they gave Assassins Creed a 9. Personally I'm fine with score, it's good, but you have to wonder what they saw in Assassins Creed that they didn't see in Mass Effect. By all early reviews this game is great and the reviews are pretty close to one another. That wasn't the way with Creed. Now I know these are to different types of games and it's hard to compare, but I'm curious to the thinking. Also is Dtoid doing a review and who is doing it?

Fire Emblem: RD Gametrailers interview
Arugala9 | 5:47 PM on 10.29.2007 7 comments





I'm really looking forward to this game next week. Path of Radiance was very good and I have high hopes for this game. It seems improved over the last game wih more customization, character, good looing cutscenes, terrain actually being importent, and air battles. I'm psyched. Anyone else picking it up?

Here is another preview trailer:

Krystal in Brawl
Arugala9 | 7:53 PM on 10.25.2007 17 comments




It has come to the internets (Kotaku) attention that voice actor Alesia Glidwell is listing her doing the voice for Krystal in Brawl. She could be playable or an assist trophy or something else entirely. Anybody excited besides Dtoids furry population? I'm gonna guess shes playable. I would rather have Peppy or Star Wolf though.

Eye of Judgement cards for free
Arugala9 | 6:53 PM on 10.25.2007 6 comments


So apparently you can copy the cards and use them without having to pay for them. Mike Fahey over at Kotaku has tried it and confirms it works. All you need is the internet and a printer. This seems like a major breach in the game if all you need to do is find pictures of them on the internet or borrow them from a friend. You think they would have had something to prevent this.
