Ni No Kuni & Other News

So we've been on Ni No Kuni for a few hours now, and we're totally addicted to it. So far I'd recommend it to all of you, it's a one of a kind RPG and it's probably going to be extremely rare because we're already sold out in GAME. Well to be fair we only had a few in! Totally jealous of my work colleague Toby because he got the Wizard's edition, with a Drippy plush and the 300 page Wizard's companion book.

Random news:
  • Skylanders have announced a new game, Skylanders Swap Force. You get swap force figures, that can snap apart, mix and match to form new creatures with totally different powers. Could be good, who knows. I think they're being a bit hastey since they've literally only just brought out Giants. Parents won't be happy!


  • Square Enix have said that they're holding back Versus XIII even more, now called Final Fantasy XV so it can be one of the main "exclusive" releases for the new "PS4". But I bet everyone's a bit fed up of that since it was announced yeaaars ago back when Dissidia wasn't around yet.


  • If you're an online PC gamer who doesn't mind a bit of free action (if you didn't know), TERA is free to play now, so no purchase necessary! I've been meaning to give it a try so I'll let you know how it is soon. If you're also on TERA or Guild Wars 2 leave a comment, 'cause I'd like more of a reason to come online!

I've read a few reviews about Dead Space 3 already, not looking too good. I think EA messed up releasing it early in the states, because the current reviews are dragging down pre-orders and messing around with fans' loyalty in the UK. So I've heard that the campaign's story is extremely repetitive;  Isaac stranded, finds group, group sends him on a mission, does mission then gets separated, back to stage 1 again. This apparently happens at least 3 times and doesn't sound too appealing. The co-op on the other hand is where the game really stands out from the other games, but it's down to personal opinion since some people prefer to play on their own. Oho i forgot to add, we got some branded Dead Space make up today with blood and stuff, so on Friday most of us at GAME will be "Dead". Come and see us!

For all of you Warhammer 40k fans too, an extremely awesome friend of mine has nearly finished his new animation 'Space Hulk 2'! Watch his animations here, if you like what you see check out and keep up to date by following his website or Facebook page here.

I've hit and passed the 300 pageview mark now, and i'd like to thank everyone for reading or for even glancing at this site. Without you guys i'd be pointless on here! I'll do a little thank you when I hit 1000 and so on!
