Zone Of The Enders HD Collection Gets A North American Release Date
Been waiting anxiously for the Zone Of The Enders HD Collection to finally get a release outside of Japan? You and me, both, bub. Fortunately, if you’re North American, you won’t have to wait much longer as ZoE HD is coming to your shores on October 30th for Xbox 360 and PS3!
Number 4
Okami HD is Coming
Okami was Clover Studios’ 2006 masterpiece for the PS2 (and, later on Wii). A one-of-a-kind experience that, very sadly, bombed horrendously upon release. TWICE. Well, hopefully third time’s the charm as Capcom are bringing the cult classic to the PSN as another current gen HD remake
Number 3
Kingdom Hearts HD Collection Coming to PS3
Craving a current gen Kingdom Hearts fix that isn’t stuck on handhelds? Want a refresher on most of the convoluted story that’s occurred so far? Missed out on the series completely first time around? Square-Enix have you covered as an HD Collection of various titles from the Kingdom Hearts series will be hitting the PS3 next year.
Number 2
Playstation All-Stars Beta Codes Are Out
If you haven’t been keeping up to date on PlayStation All-Stars news, let me re-jog you memory. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is a brawler that is being developed by Superbot studio’s and is being published by Sony as a PlayStation exclusive. It is very similar to the likes of Nintendo’s Super Smash Brothers. The whole aspect of the game is to beat one another senseless to gain access to your super attacks and knock out your opponents to gain kill points.
Number 1
GTA V Might Not Be Out Until March 2013
Back in May, publisher Take-Two projected an income of $1.8 billion for the upcoming fiscal year (as in, this one that’s happening right now). Nobody was certain how Take-Two would reach such high figures (forgetting Spec Ops The Line, Max Payne 3, Borderlands 2, Bioshock: Infinite…) and journalists took this to mean that GTA V was getting a release before the end of March next year. Of course, since that initial trailer in November of last year, we’ve heard nothing, save for a couple of screenshots released in the last few months.
