VADER!

Have you heard any impressions of Mercenaries 3D yet?

Yes on gaf. Sounds good to me.

"Miyamoto recalls Mario 64-esque structure.

The original concept for N64 classic Zelda: Ocarina of Time saw the game play out entirely within the confines of Ganon's castle, according to creator Shigeru Miyamoto.

Speaking in the latest Iwata Asks Q&A on the Nintendo website, he explained that players would then access different areas via portals in its rooms.

"I thought about putting in all kinds of adventures into the different rooms, like making a dark meadow or an ocean - like in Princess Peach's Castle in Super Mario 64."

Jesus image a world if Zelda became that. I dont want to live there.

Choo-Choo! I started my Spirit Tracks adventure off proper today.  I'm enjoying a heckuva a lot more than PH.  My nephew watched me play and I think he was in love too.  He said " This game looks fun...and dangerous. " lol

Conducting a train would be more pleasing if I can fucking stop without backing up, putting it in forward a bit, backing up just a teensy bit more.....only annoyance so far.

Clearly the secret to success is being an arsehole.

It surprises me that you could even create something great in those kinds of miserable conditions. I would think in gaming, or any kind of entertainment field, where you need good team chemistry for creative ideas to flow and for people to be happy, that making everyone pissed and miserable would not give you a good end product.

Still, now that its a known problem and people are leaving, nobody is going to want to work there.

Eurogamer preview Mario Kart 3DS

60 frames per second are maintained even with the 3D slider set to full headache, but that's the least of its achievements. It's no idle lie to call Mario Kart the best-looking 3DS game to date [that is an idle lie, it's clearly Luigi's Mansion 2 - Oli], and its assured handling of Nintendo's fantasy vision makes it quite possibly the best looking handheld game to date; trackside detail blooms handsomely while Mario's pastel landscapes stretch all the way to the horizon.


Retro Studios' involvement - and to what extent the Texan developer is involved remains a mystery - tells in the standout course of the three initially on display. Set in the jungles of Donkey Kong, the track goes from dense overgrowth lit by shafts of light to a glittering golden temple, with several of the assets seemingly ripped wholesale from Retro's last Wii outing, Donkey Kong Returns.

So hands up if you were impressed by Mario Kart 3DS graphics at E3? Yep..... no one as I thought. Yet a lot of the previews I have seen say it has the best 3DS graphics yet seen, maybe you need to see it for yourself at 60 FPS in 3D to appreciate it? I remember Vader saying it looked worse that the Wii one. I know Retro is designing tracks for the game - do you think they helped on the visual side of things too?

Any words if we get a soundtrack CD?

Nothing that I've heard yet. Maybe it will be like Ocarina 3D- you register the game online and they send you a free CD?

This video is an oldie but a goodie.
