This is JT IceFire, and you're reading my blog under my previous name. I switched it up when I couldn't stand having a number for an ID anymore. To get to the new stuff, head on over to http://www.destructoid.com/blogs/jt+icefire.
- Remember Card Sagas Wars, the ultimate crossover fighting game Dtoid first broke last year? After nine months, the site has finally updated again in March, with a few more videos for our Pavlovian salivation.
Fifth epic trailer
Crono vs. Etna
Cloud vs. Soma
There’s no timetable for release, and the creators are just now working on their second set of characters, including Link and Mega Man X, so don’t expect anything playable for a while yet. Still, there’s enough classic awesomeness here to make it worth the wait.
- The KOTOR 2 Sith Lords restoration project trudges on to its latest beta, 1.0b11, inching ever closer to its tantalizing final release. Check out the game’s final trailer, full of both awesomeness and disappointment:
The real release date? When it’s done.
- Metroid SR:388, the fan project we all hope will fill the 2D-Metroid-shaped hole in our lives, still has no demo, but at least there's an updated trailer. Dig this:
- There’s absolutely no shortage of the ambitious mega-project Mushroom Kingdom Fusion floating around online, but now you can find them all in one place: the developers have opened a unified YouTube channel. Here are a few recent highlights:
Vile wrecks Las Vegas
Wario in the War Zone
8-Bit Mario in the dried-up ruins of the original World 2
The most recent beta, released back in November, is now online, find it here.
- In case you haven’t played them yet, check out these completed mods:
Mother 3 Fan Translation: Total Americanization of the modern Nintendo classic. (Patch)
Final Fantasy Tactics 1.3: Rebalanced stats and AI modified to put the tactics back in FFT. A terrific challenge, definitely worth a download (Patch)

Wow, I had totally forgotten about Card Sagas Wars. I even used to blog about it. It's just taking way too long for anything playable to come out. I first heard about it almost two years ago. It's still going to be awesome, though.
