Trendy Gamers: April is definitely the calm before the AAA storm we will see in May. There are still some great games coming out this month though, such as a long-awaited Wii RPG, a sequel to an open world action game, a console port of a PC fantasy game, and the ability to control the force with your body.
Xenoblade Chronicles composer Kenji Hiramatsu reflects on his work and feels that it's "time for a fresh start."
Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.
I liked the Xenoblade X formula. It takes awhile, but opening up Mechs was amazing. Especially once you can fly them, and use them in battle. You have to put some time into the game to do it, but it's worth it!
Also, the graphics were more realistic than the other games. Still looks good today, just a lot more pop-in than is acceptable today, hell even too much for back then. It wasn't game breaking though.
Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.
Kinect Star Wars, a groundbreaking game released in April 2012 for the Xbox 360, utilized the Kinect motion-sensing peripheral to plunge players into the heart of the Star Wars universe.
One of the worst things to happen to Star Wars was it being exclusive to Kinect when PS Move could have been a better version because of "buttons" per Kevin with better tracking. And the controller looking like a light saber hilt. Or, had an actual light saber game similar to the dojo in Vader Immortal.
But the miming lies on the Microsoft E3 stage was icing on the cake of this garage. Wasn't even live gameplay. Just bad acting. Nothing ground breaking about this travesty.
Ohh wow. Didn't know that Prototype is coming out next month. This title is slipping under the radar. Well, I'm more of an Infamous guy, anyways.
Looking forward to getting my hands on Witcher 2 for the 360.
Prototype 2 looks like the most interesting one.
Loved prototype on the 360 when it debuted and hopefully part2 will be even better. I also very much enjoyed the infamos series and played both of them. I don't know why prototype and infamous get compared to 1 another as they really are not that similar. I also will be playing the Witcher2 for the first time as I really don't game on my computer other than building a park in rollercoater tycoon.
Trials evolution.
