When Mass Effect Meets Battlefield

Two of Electronic Arts’ biggest current franchises collide in this wallpaper, sent today to Christina Norman, former BioWare designer on the Mass Effect series who is currently working for Riot Games, makers of League of Legends.

Check Out Phoenix Wright’s Surreal, Multi-Tiered Fighting Style In Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3

The biggest applause in the panels that Capcom held for their upcoming fighting games came for the introduction of the blue-suited hero of the Ace Attorney games. During the Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 panel, special consultant and fighting game expert Seth Killian talked about how the development team tried to make the unlikely placement of the barrister into a brawling game.

They also wanted to make sure that Phoenix still felt like the hero who’s earned a loyal following. I think they nailed it. Watch this video and you’ll probably agree.

Playstation Should You Buy Ace Combat: Assault Horizon? Yes. By Mike Fahey on October 17, 2011 at 12:00 AM Namco Bandai’s Ace Combat: Assault Horizon is out there ready to be purchased, or rented and played. But should you invest the time and money? Since I’m the only one playing, here’s my split personality Gut Check. On the blog now, Porter acknowledges that “this will clearly severely delay the next update, which was very near completion.” However, no Project Zomboid player’s personal information was on either of the two computers stolen, he said. Michael Fahey, Die-Hard

What the hell have they done to my series? I depend on Ace Combat for high-velocity aerial combat. In the three hours I’ve played Assault Horizon I’ve participated in a lengthy battle acting solely as a helicopter gunner, piloted my own helicopter slowly around a town providing cover fire for ground troops, and played an extended version of the gunner bit from the end of Modern Warfare 2. I’ve spent more time in other aircraft than I have in jets. This is not what I wanted. I can’t even use my flight stick? Screw this

Michael Fahey, Somewhat More Reasonable

ce Combat Fan: As much as I love the earlier entries in the series, I must admit that flying around in circles until the missiles hit was getting a bit tedious. Project Aces’ new Close-Range Assault system gives me the chance to experience a more dynamic and dramatic sort of dogfighting. I’m riding my enemy’s tails, camera shaking as I struggle to keep them in my sights. I’m killing bad guys with my machine guns — something that almost never happened in earlier entries in the series. Sure it’s essentially on rails at that point, but the action is so intense that I don’t mind so much. Between the new combat system and the frequency of flying (or not flying) things that are not jets, Assault Horizon doesn’t feel like an Ace Combat game, but what it does feel like is a game I didn’t mind purchasing

Michael Fahey, Fan of Air Combat in General

When I play Battlefield games I spend the entire match running to the air strip to grab the plane. I bought Apache Air Assault knowing it wasn’t good, just for a chance to spend a little time in a whup-whup machine. This game has helicopters, gunships, jets, and a multiplayer mode in which they can all fly together. With 31 different aircraft to pilot or wield against the enemy, Ace Combat: Assault Horizon is the best bang for my flying buck. Yes.

Assassin’s Creed Line Dancing At New York’s Comic-Con

New York Comic-Con’s Just Dance 3 stage was always filled with an interesting mix of cosplayers, but these are my favorite: A dozen assassins from Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed line dancing to Sugarhill Gang’s Jump On It with the help of Ubisoft’s other major hit… Just Dance.
It’s a tad long, but you should probably skip over to three minutes in to see the special guest appearance.
