Chart-Topping Performance Sets The Stage For E3 Debut Of Eagerly Anticipated Sequel Skylanders Giants™
SANTA MONICA, Calif., June 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), is pleased to announce that Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure™, which launched to great acclaim and record-setting sales in October 2011, was the #1 best-selling console and handheld video game title between January and April 30, 2012 worldwide based on revenue inclusive of toys and accessories, according to The NPD Group, GfK, Charttrack and Activision internal estimates.
“This achievement is incredibly gratifying, and quite an honor for everyone at Activision and our team at Toys for Bob,” said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing. “It was a simple idea really—bridging the gap between real and virtual play—but one that required tremendous creativity to execute and communicate to our audience. It spawned a new category and a new platform for play in an overwhelmingly challenging marketplace. We couldn’t be happier that there is an ever-growing universe of Portal Masters out there.”

No Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 for Wii U?
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Rumors, Wii U | 0 comments

The image above comes from the debut trailer of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2. As you can see, there’s no Wii U logo up there.
We still don’t know for sure if Lords of Shadow 2 is in the works for Nintendo’s new console, but it’s in doubt now. Either Konami was asked to keep a Wii U version a secret until the Big N’s conference, or it’s simply not planned for the system. I’m sure all will be made clear in a few days.

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 0 comments
Late last year, Square Enix unveiled a new franchise involving transforming robot cars. The IP includes an anime series, manga, an arcade game, and a 3DS title. Square Enix provided the first media for the handheld game today.
The tentatively titled “Chousoku Henkei Gyrozetter RPG” features the same world as the arcade release, anime, and manga. However, the story will differ so that it can be experienced as a standalone product. The title will obviously contain RPG elements, and Square Enix has confirmed wireless combat.
Chousoku Henkei Gyrozetter RPG will be hitting Japan in Spring 2013.

Level-5 has updated the official site for Time Travelers. The page has brought along new details about the game’s story and gameplay systems.
We’ve summarized the information for you below. New screenshots can be found in the gallery above.

– Yuri Fukase: 18-year-old high school student; best in his school in academics and sports
– Yuri is connected to the Lost Hole incident; this is when he’d just been born
– He can’t talk about this with others
– Yuri’s scenario: “High School Student”
– Scenario kicks off with Yuri heading to the lab to meet a promise
– Yuri goes up to the roof, sees Mikoto
– Mikoto shows up in all scenarios in a slightly different form
– Mikoto asks, “Can I kiss you?”
– Yuri receives a mysterious mail saying that he should peek around the lab
– Yuri and Mikoto show up at the lab and see that it has been sealed off
– Time manipulation plays a role in Time Travelers
– Free time and rewind the story through “Time Stop”

– Example: In “Detective Chapter”, detective Soma Kamiya gets hit by a car; Hina Fushimi (news caster) is the passenger in the car; use a Time Stop to switch to Hina’s “Caster Chapter” to make her driver avoid hitting Kamiya; Kamiya will run off to his destination rather than getting hit
