LEGO City: Undercover gets first review
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments
LEGO City: Undercover has received its first review. Game Informer handed out an 8.5 / 10 score in its April 2013 issue.
Reviewer Jeff Cork was impressed with Undercover’s storyline, GamePad usage – except for the instances in which players must rotate the controller for 360-degree scanning – and hub elements. Cork wrote that developer TT Fusion “has absolutely nailed the best part of sandbox games.”
However, Cork felt that the game could have done a better job with its world so that players could be more motivated to participate in additional missions. Other than citizens involved with Undercover’s critical path, you won’t come across strangers on the streets in need of help.
Cork wrapped up by noting that LEGO City: Undercover “isn’t perfect, but I can’t think of another Wii U game that I’d recommend more. … It’s the most interesting and highly polished game in TT Games’ large repertoire, and it fills an important game gap.”

Famitsu reveals Sayonara Umihara Kawase for 3DS
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Umihara Kawase has been around for years – since the Super Famicom, in fact. The series’ last game was on the DS, so it makes sense that the latest entry, Sayonara Umihara Kawase, is heading to the 3DS.
According to information leaking out of this week’s Famitsu, Sayonara Umihara Kawase will be released in Japan this summer for 4,980 yen. Protoganist Umihara Kawase, now 20 years-old, will once again take the leading role. Staff from the original game are on board for the 3DS title’s development.
