After being thoroughly disappointed with the linear, stilted, practically on-rails "Leon" demo of Resident Evil 6 at E3, it's nice to see horror game that give the player some amount on control in its first ten minutes, whil...

Nintendo will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Kirby by doing what game companies do with a series once whenever they hit a nice round number; they're repackaging the old games. Kirby's Dream Collection, comi...

Fans have been doing remarkable things with Mario games on the Wii despite the presumably long list of limitations that make the task a challenging one. That creative push from the homebrew community continues with this new ...

I still can't get over the fact that Snoop Dogg has a themed level in the upcoming Tekken Tag Tournament 2. It is truly one of the most bizarre bits of news to come out of E3 2012. Aside from his claims that he's long been a...

LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is being billed as the first LEGO game to feature talking characters, even though it totally isn't. While the series may have gotten away from using voice acting in recent years, seeming t...

Here's a quick look a Scribblenauts Unlimited. It feels like the game will truly let you create whatever you want, however you want. There is an object editor, a huge array of recognized adjectives and nouns, and a handy aut...

There were a couple of things that made the now-disbanded Clover Studio a special team. From God Hand to Viewtiful Joe to Okami, each of their games took a uniquely Japanese idea (apocalypse-the...

ZombiU's asymmetrical, competitive multiplayer is a nice little package. It will definitely be a dorm room favorite and a good time at parties. The general premise is that one player (in this case, my homeboy Pungi...

Along with Project P-100, one of the biggest surprises at the Nintendo booth at E3 was Game & Wario. I would have definitely been less disappointed with Nintendo's on-site press conference if the...

Asymmetrical gameplay is nothing new to Nintendo. Pac-Man Vs. allowed players to experience the series as the bad guy for the first time, while Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 gave the second player to assist the "main" play...

The music from Mega Man 10 is the strangest creature ever. On one hand, it assembles composers from each Classic Mega Man entry in an all-star jamboree. On the other hand, their contributions are perhaps some of the most bor...

Injustice: Gods Among Us was certainly a pleasant pre-E3 surprise as someone who genuinely dug the hell out of Mortal Kombat and always has room in his heart for characters from the DC universe. Max got some hands-on time wi...

While I'm not terribly excited for Nintendo Land, Nintendo's latest collection of mini-games, there's no one on staff more pumped about the project than Jonathan Holmes. In this video, Holmes checks out "Legend of Zelda: Bat...

Rest assured, dear reader, that Lara Croft isn't the only one grunting and moaning at E3 this year. Jonathan Holmes got his hands (bum?) on Wii Fit U at the Nintendo booth and made a variety of interesting sounds as he worke...

Jonathan Holmes and Shannon from Nintendo are back for another two-part Wii U demonstration. This time, they're playing New Super Mario Bros. U, and -- I'll admit it -- the game looks considerably more fun than I expected it...

Jonathan Holmes' enthusiasm is infectious, as you can see in this video of his hands-on time with "Animal Crossing: Sweet Day," one of the 12 minigames in Nintendo Land. It's a rather strange little five-player game: the Gam...

If you weren't already aware of Holmes' unbridled love for Pikmin, you're in for a wake-up call as he gets his hands on Pikmin 3 for Wii U. He simply can't contain his joy, and I don't blame him -- this game looks absolutely...

In addition to our Nintendo story round-up, Max and Tara have kindly done their own Nintendo recap. They have thoughts and opinions, which you can hear in this video. I missed the Nintendo conference this year, but this was a good way to get a quick overview of everything. Pikmin 3 and Lego City. Got it.

You've watched the Nintendo press conference. You've seen all the latest news from Nintendo all day long. You've learned our opinions of the press conferences. You've heard how adorable the new rock Pikmin are. But have you ...

This proves one thing: you can make a LEGO game out of anything. I am not complaining, mind you, and am a huge fan of previous LEGO titles. The footage that's come out of E3 for Lego City looks solid and I expect another entertaining, fun game. Too bad I'm still not convinced I want a Wii U.

Tara is joined by Anthony Carboni for a blether about what's looking like one of the first things I'll be getting for the Wii U. Rayman Legends was one of the best parts of Ubisoft's conference, I could watch it all day long, but I'd rather be playing it. Check the video out for tons of fast-paced gameplay and details. I can't wait to get stuck into the five player co-op.

That music. Those adorable sound effects. Motherf***ing Rock Pikmin! Oh my goodness, Pikmin 3 is a real thing and, one day, I'll get to play it. Many of you probably know Chad as our resident series fanboy, but I'm right the...

I don't get it, Nintendo. You claim you were dedicating an entire morning to Wii U games, yet you showed pretty much the same third-party sizzle reel as last year. The only new third-party game announced was Scibblenauts Rem...

Did you check out our preview for LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes? Good, because you should also really watch the new trailer. It's not only filled with cute LEGO stuff that makes me wish for my lost childhood LEGO collection, but there's a joke near the end that made me die laughing. Wasn't expecting voice acting at all. Bravo, Warner Brothers.

It was bound to happen. We're finally seeing the full capabilities of the Kinect motion sensor, and it looks like they've announced the ultimate in immersive gaming. Assassin's Creed: Kinect puts gamers back in the shoes of Ezio in what looks to be a motion-controlled remake of Revelations. Check out the trailer. Obviously, another joke trailer. But wow, well done!
