I hope you guys like interviews (I sure do!), because you’ll be seeing a lot more of them over the coming months. Lined up we have 5th Cell, Junction Point, Broken Rules, and WayForward (tentative), and over the past few months we’ve dealt with n-Space, Renegade Kid’s Jools Watsham, and some writers from Cracked.com (horrible, horrible interview).

Recently I’ve conducted interviews via lists, weird fan-fiction write ups, and as straightforward Q&As. This time I think it’s certifiably appropriate to hit it from the IGN angle: Straightforward Q&A with some splashy fluff and awkward text-ifyings of emotional responses.

Ha ha ha.

So what’s in store for today? It’s time to get to know the guys behind 3DS’s potential next great platformer, Endgame Studios! A relatively new name to the development scene, they’ve been doing licensed games and dev-for-hire stuff since 2003, but they didn’t foray into independent game design in a serious way until 2005/2006, when the early early concept for ‘Fractured Soul’ came to be. It’s been a long development cycle, but we’re finally nearing its September 13th release date and many people are looking for a reason to pick it up.

So I started with that.


As the title implies, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney makes use of two protagonists and two differing gameplay elements.

In the court room, you’ll play as Phoenix Wright. The game also has a town to explore. In these segments, the action will shift to Professor Layton and sidekick Luke.

Famitsu says that the two characters will explore Labyrinth City Nazo, and you’ll be able to converse with townsfolk. These areas make use of a 3D visuals and a graphical style similar to that of Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask.

Other news from Famitsu:

– Bones is working on animation
– Bones previously worked on Eureka Seven and Soul Eater
– There is a “W Protagonist System” in which you’ll need to solve crimes
