Published: August 5, 2008
Print At the 2008 E3 Media and Business Summit, Capcom, announced Mega Man 9
for Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment
system from Microsoft, Nintendo WiiWare, and PLAYSTATION Network. The
original 2D classic Mega Man returns, bringing the series back to its
core with retro-action platform gameplay and NES-inspired old school
graphics. Relive the Mega Man experience with maniacally themed
environments, a host of power-ups, and classically inspired bosses,
each with their own unique weapons and weaknesses. Mega Man is
currently scheduled for a simultaneous launch on all three platforms
this Fall.
Launching this Fall for all three major platforms, Mega Man 9 is the must- buy Mega Man for both old and new fans alike. Its retro look and feel will draw old fans back to the series while its intuitive controls and the 80's retro style gameplay will open up the game to a broader audience.
Mega Man 9 is a continuation of the original Mega
Man series and will feature the classic gameplay fans know and love
focusing on defeating bosses and acquiring a diverse arsenal of
weapons. Mega Man 9 will feature over a dozen new challenging levels, a
horde of new enemies with designs directed by Keiji Inafune, the
original Mega Man character designer, online leader boards and a
gamerscore achievements system.
In the year 200X, as the
advanced science of the era has created industrial robots that co-exist
with humans. However, an evil genius, Dr. Wily, plots for world
domination and creates his own robot army to take over mankind. Luckily
for humanity, Dr. Light outfits one of his domestic robots "Rock" to
fight Dr. Wily's creations. Mega Man is born.
Set after the
events of Mega Man 8, multiple riots have sprung up all over the world.
Whilst many people suspect that this is another plot from Dr. Wily, Dr.
Light is stunned to recognize that some of the robots rioting on the TV
screen are his own creations. Even more stunning, Dr. Wily appears on
television to proclaim that Dr. Light is the evil mastermind behind
these latest catastrophic incidents and it's up to Mega Man to clear
his creator's name!
Launching this Fall for all three major platforms, Mega Man 9 is the must- buy Mega Man for both old and new fans alike. Its retro look and feel will draw old fans back to the series while its intuitive controls and the 80's retro style gameplay will open up the game to a broader audience.

Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath
Welcome back, LEGION. Indeed, Joe Kucan is back, portraying the legendary self-proclaimed prophet Kane, through 20 years of Command and Conquer history: past, present and future.

Sins of a Solar Empire
The stellar "Sins of a Solar Empire" hits our PCs with a unique interesting new combination of game genres and a few cool ideas that should draw the attention of quite a few strategy fans. The newcomer Ironclad Games managed the impossible and created a competitive title indeed. But aside from all the prays and high marks this game received overall, its approach on RTS and the mix of elements it brings, one can find some things that will bother a few players and that will eventually influence the grades of this review. Ok, let's take it from the top.

Sherlock Holmes versus Arsene Lupin
Sherlock Holmes, the worlds` greatest detective, created by Arthur Conan Doyle is about to face his biggest challenge so far: Arsene Lupin, the worlds` greatest thief, created by Maurice Leblanc. Who is going to win this battle of wits? Who is going to be victorious, and, most importantly, who would you like to see as the winner?

Silent Hunter 4: Pacific U-Boat Missions
I thought a bit about how to start this. While saying that Silent Hunter IV is the best submarine simulator out there is true, it doesn't mean much, especially for new players. Saying it is one of the best simulator games out there is again accurate, but again, a bit of an understatement. Why? Well because... despite the high complexity and realism involved, Ubisoft Romania managed to develop a game that is appealing to the beginners as well, in a certain degree.

Sword of the New World: Granado Espada
Lineage II had it share of success. At the time the game was released, it was one of the most beautiful MMOG on the market. To take its place as the most beautiful MMOG, the Ragnarok Online (or RO) developers from imcGames created Sword of the New World: Granado Espada.

GC: Disciples 3: Renaissance
We were able to take part in 2 battles and what we saw pleased us. The transition to the 3D helped the game and gave it a better view on the battlefield. You can move the camera and this way you get a better look at the action. The units are amazing and their animations are clean and good looking. Same goes for spells and effects: you will love what you see.

Nitro Stunt Racing Stage 1
Last week I began to search some new independent games. Suddenly I stumbled upon this interesting racing game called Nitro Stunt Racing. The title sounds non-original but the content tends to be if not original, at least interesting.

GC: Aion Tower of Eternity
In a perfect world, everything is controlled by a balance between Chaos and Order. But what happens if things start to get messy and a great evil is about to unleash an epic conflict onto the universe? This is what NCsoft decided to unveil and also explain why Aion is a MMO bound to have success.

Race 07
So here I am back on the road with a BMW. This time in Race 07 demo. The only racing-simulation game that really impressed me at GC. But only with the help of the Steam client which probably will become the "god" of online distribution! Anyway a big minus for this decision of playing the game only through Steam.
