C.O.R.E. – Locked and Loaded First-person shooter action for Nintendo DS
Posted on 17 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
Conspiracy Entertainment Europe is pleased to announce that they have secured the European publishing rights from NoWay Studio, Poland, to their latest release C.O.R.E. The game is a dynamic fast paced, action packed, first-person shooter for Nintendo DS that will be instantly familiar to everyone who loves classic single player / team based shooter games.
For the last 11 months, NoWay Studio has been busy pushing the limits of the Nintendo DS with amazing full 3D animations and visual effects. This “next generation” title is the first game to bring the FPS experience so familiar to PC gamers, to the Nintendo handheld gameing machine. The team have created a complex of buildings, underground passageways and chambers where players can roam freely battling with a variety of enemies and bosses. Each of the levels is introduced by an in-game movie setting out the objective ahead. Each building or tunnels complex can be completed in a variety of ways allowing the players to discover new weapons, passageways, hiding places and solutions each time the game is played.
Some Guitar Hero DS info
Posted on 17 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
– World Tour mode, Band Career mode (4 player online), Battle of the Bands mode (4 Vs. 4 online)
– Drum setup: 3 pad, 2 cymbals, 1 bass pedal
– drum pads are ‘velocity sensitive’
– New guitar: “newly designed” and “more responsive.”
– New gameplay mechanic yet to be announced
– customizable rocker, logo, album art, and more
– ‘Jam Mode’ has been taken out…for now. Jam Mode let you play over any song in the game, without the need to follow notes
– Music creation: “We’ve embraced the whole custom community and we’re giving fans what they want. It’s a full recording studio and an online repository, a library for people to post their songs.”
– Difficulty: “The Expert level will still be what it is: you’ll play every note in the song. If it’s a really hard song, it’s going to be really hard to play in the game. And that’s what the hardcore fans want. But for the rest of the people, we’re trying to make the ramp [from Easy to Hard] a little more linear.”
