This news isn’t much of a shock considering the recentwalkthroughtrailer for the game doesn’t list it as a PS3 game anyway, but it is sort of odd for EA to deny the delay toCVGin the morning, only to have a spokesperson spill their guts about it a few hours later....

‘World premieres, news, and more’ Electronic Arts is normally the first company to get its E3 festivities done and dusted. Typically held the Saturday before E3, day minus-two, EA is the warm-up press conference before the furious onslaught over the next few days. However, if this year were a normal year, the timing of EA’s event would make it last. But, as you and I both know, this is anything but a normal year....

Prepare for a heavy dose of cuteness Well, people. It turns out that NIS America’s PC port ofYs VIIIisn’t the only Nihon Falcom title launching in January since XSEED plans to releaseZwei: The Arges Adventureon the 24th. As we get to see more of the action RPG in motion, it continues to look freaking adorable. In fact, the visuals might cause me to hug my computer screen. Also, it’s going to be fun seeing the game’s two leads react to the world’s environments through the use of puns and snarky comments....

Japanese gaming publicationFamitsu’sout of 40gaming reviews have become sort of a benchmark over there, so we like to keep our eye out on what they say for our favorite games.

One of the four editors even gave it a perfect score....

Final Fantasy VIIis, without a doubt, the most influential and well known game in theFinal Fantasyseries. It’s hardly surprising, then, that there’s an army of detractors who have set out to diminish it. After all, if something is popular, it must be terrible. Whenever something becomes too popular, the same old word is trotted out — overrated. Whenever you bring upFinal Fantasy VII, it is inevitable that the “O” word will rear its ugly head in due time....

I’m surprisingly into this game after E3 I likedGhost Recon Wildlandsway more in theory than in execution, but with this year’s follow-up,Ghost Recon Breakpoint, my mind is at ease.Ubisoft’s E3 showing brought me around and, frankly, I’m as surprised as anyone by this turn of events. I feel like most people who had fun withWildlandsdon’t need any additional convincing, but for everyone else out there, don’t write offBreakpoint. It was an eventful playable demo full of botched plans, full squad wipes, pre-release graphical weirdness typical of Ubisoft E3 builds, and even a complete power outage at one point, but despite having a rough go of it on Jon Bernthal’s island of drones, I came away optimistic aboutBreakpoint....

Destructoid offers a re-BUTT-al In arecent article on Kotaku, writer Patricia Hernandez pointed out that, while Nintendo will censor asses, it has no problem showcasing a delicious penis. She usedAnimal Crossing: New Leafas evidence, criticizing Nintendo’s hypocrisy forcensoring an assinFire Emblemwhile allowing Michelangelo’s David to strut his stiffening stuff. Well, like her, I also haveNew Leaf, and I can confirmAnimal Crossingis actually pretty consistent with the dong-to-derriere ratio. After getting a visit from art dealer Redd in my own town (the noble town of Chungus), my eyes were naturally drawn to the pebbly posterior you see before you....
