I recently had a chance to speak with Codemasters about their upcomming off-road racing game, DIRT: Colin McRae Off-Road. Expect to see DIRT: Colin McRae Off-Road for the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 in the second quarter of 2007.
Inside Pulse: First off, what’s new in Dirt?
Codemasters: As the name suggests DIRT: Colin McRae Off-road […]
There are some games that just never catch on in the United States. It may be that they are never released here and only have a small import market such as Sakura Taisen or that the game just never got much more then a cult following Mother/Earthbound. These games often show some companies trepidation on […]
Go and read A.J.’s “Gurumin: A Monsterous Adventure” preview.
It’s no secret here at Inside Pulse that we’re huge Nihon Falcom fans. Besides maybe Shining Force and the SMT games, there is no series we swear by more then Y’s. It was my pleasure to interview Nihon Falcom’s President, Shinji Yamazaki, about the soon to […]
John Woo. John Woo. John Woo. I hate John Woo. He’s a terrible director who has no sense of storytelling. I’ve hated John Woo for years as he seems to be only concerned about visceral thrills and gun fights then telling a story. It’s almost all action with him. He never gives time for the […]
Wii Sports
Developer: Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo
Release Date: 11/19/06
System: Wii
Let’s face it. It’s sort of silly to review Wii Sports. If you buy a Nintendo Wii, you’ve got a copy of Wii Sports. Maybe this will be useful for someone who is considering buying a Wii, but it’s kind of silly really. Wii Sports probably won’t sell systems […]
Trauma Center: Second Opinion
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: Atlus
Release Date: 11/19/06
System: Wii
Trauma Center: Under the Knife was one of the best games of 2005. Without question, Trauma Center was a hallmark of the Nintendo DS. It’s easily one of the strongest reasons to own a DS. Color me surprised when Atlus announced that they would be remaking Trauma […]
Elite Beat Agents
Developer: iNiS
Publisher: Nintendo
Release Date: 11/7/06
System: Nintendo DS
Elite Beat Agents is neither Elite or filled with Beats. Ok, that’s a total lie. I just really wanted to use that line if Elite Beat Agents ended up sucking. In fact, Elite Beat Agents is an excellent game that lives up to the legacy of the […]
Clubhouse Games
Developer: Agenda
Publisher: Nintendo
Genre: Parlor Games
Release Date: 10/9/06
Few things in this world are as enjoyable as sitting around shooting some pool with buddies or playing a game of chess on a rainy day. Nintendo took the whole idea of parlor games and such to a new level with Clubhouse Games. Clubhouse Games is a huge […]
Evidence: The Last Ritual
Developer: Lexis Numerique
Publisher: The Adventure Company
Genre: Adventure
Release Date: 10/17/06
Let’s get one thing straight people before we start this review. Adventure games that are meant to be played with a straight face really aren’t my cup of tea. The Monkey Island games, Sam and Max, and more recently Phoenix Wright are […]
Contact DS
Developer: Grasshoper Manufacture
Publisher: Atlus
Genre: Action RPG
Release Date: 10/19/2006
Every so often a somewhat original game realizes its originality and ends up playing off of that to be even more original then it originally was. Contact might end up being the most original RPG of all time in not just its story, but in its control, […]
