Inversion confirmed for a June 5th release
The gravity manipulating third-person shooter Inversion has been confirmed by Namco Bandai today for a June 5th release in the United States and June 8th release in Europe. Saber Interactive is using this extra time to make sure the game can be as good as it possibly can be. Namco also took this time to announce a new iOS and Android title called The Inversion Project. It'll be used as a way to introduce players to the world of Inversion and will feature the same cover-based, third-person shooter with gravitational powers gameplay as the console title. There's no word on when the mobile game will be released except for a "later this year" window, but it's probably a safe bet that you can expect it to release before Inversion does this summer.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Remember Fracture? Good. We took that and made it with gravity flipping instead. Like that VVVVV the kids play. Starring Rob Schneider. As a carrot. Seriously I usually try to be positive, but this.... Won't even be bought out of the $5 bin next year. It looks generic, but it's by the guys that did Timeshift and helped with Halo Anniversary, so it might be decent. @Griven: You don't say. I quite enjoyed Timeshift and Anni. Hrmmm. I'll redbox it. Depending on reviews. At least a 6 and I'm down. I like this website it's a master piece!

12:00 PM on 05.18.2013 Preview: The Last of UsI was skeptical of The Last of Us. Despite all the hype and high promises, to me, it looked like post-apocalyptic Uncharted. I wasn't sold on the dynamic nature of how the game progressed, and as we all know, zombies have been literally done to death in the past five years. Then, I got a chance to actually play it. How many days until June 14th again?

The game came under some fire recently for being touted as a "short" experience, but I personally can't wait, as PlatinumGames rarely misses. Oh, and it totally has waterslides.

3:30 PM on 05.16.2013 Watch the worst Fallout game ever madeJordan and I have started a new game in our Couch Campaign, and it's one that I have been excited to play since we first began talking about the project. As a huge fan of the Fallout franchise and a lover of top-down, exploration shoot-em-up games, the pairing of the two could have been glorious. And Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel is, provided you think train wrecks can be glorious.

Take Gears of War, add gravity mechanics and a bit of a TimeShift vibe, and you have Inversion. We got to try out two-player co-op in a campaign level during gamescom, and yep, it was a cover-based shooter with bulky men who shoot bulky non-human-looking enemies.more
