Namco Bandai is working on a game based on the upcoming animated TV series “Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures”. It’s coming to the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, and 3DS this fall.

Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures is far from the classic Pac-Man experience. You’ll still be eating ghosts and food, but Ghostly Adventures’ debut trailer features a mix of action and platforming. Pac-Man is also shown eating a power pelat to gain new abilities.

LEGO Friends officially announced

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News | 0 comments

Warner Bros. officially announced LEGO Friends today, though the game’s existence was first known through an Amazon retail listing. It’s heading to the 3DS and DS this fall.

LEGO Friends takes place in Heartlake City, where users “have complete freedom to express their unique style, explore areas and activities that interest them most, such as perfecting a dance routine in the studio, taking a few shots on goal at football practice, or visiting the store to get cool items to customize their character, as they build friendships with their five new friends.”

Friends’ core is, unsurprisingly, friendship building; players grow their friendship levels with different characters by meeting and experiencing “special adventures”. You’ll be able to partake in a Heartlake Celebration once the “true friend” status is reached with all characters.

Players can additionally look forward to interacting with pets by training and grooming them and entering pet shows. Every pet has its own unique skill that can be used throughout the game. It’s also possible to play LEGO Friends from the animal’s perspective.

Developers TT Games and Hellbent Games also plan on using the in-game camera “for fun photo ops to create a scrapbook of friendship memories.”

Four Brand-New Pokémon, the New Region, and Official Package Art Revealed for the First Time
LONDON, UK —May 14, 2013— When Pokémon fans begin their thrilling 3D adventure in Pokémon X or Pokémon Y this October, they will be transported into an entirely new region called Kalos. A mysterious place that is shaped like a star, Kalos is a region where players will encounter beautiful forests, thriving cities, and many never-before-seen Pokémon. The central city of this breathtaking region is Lumiose City, a metropolis featuring a tower that is set to become an iconic structure in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y.
While exploring the Kalos region, Trainers will encounter many new Pokémon that they can battle, catch, and add to their Pokédex. A Trainer is only as good as the Pokémon he or she befriends.
