Konami's Tornado Outbreak lets you control a force of nature as it tears through open environments. Sounds interesting? You bet. There's also a new trailer for it, which you can check out at Mike Got Game.

"As of right now, the list of Xbox 360 games that people want to be playable via the Xbox One's backwards compatibility boils down to a popularity contest. 'Letting the fans decide' is one of the easiest ways to make a gigantic corporation like Microsoft feel more personable, and thousands of gamers have jumped at the chance to vote on the Xbox Feedback page for the games they'd love to see make the transition. The current frontrunners include no-brainer picks like Call of Duty, Red Dead Redemption, and Skyrim, and we've all got some personal favorites on our wishlist for Xbox 360 oddballs than can shine again on Xbox One."
The newest episode of Pixelated Radio features discussions of the Nintendo 3DS, Crysis 2, Homefront, Dragon Age II, Ōkamiden, Faery: Legends of Avalon, Tornado Outbreak, Rayman 3D, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Shadow Wars, Islands of Wakfu, and plenty more.
Tornado Outbreak is a surprisingly fun little budget release and a strong multi-platform debut for developer Loose Cannon Studios. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have gotten the level of promotional support from the publisher it deserved, so it's likely to have fallen off the radar of many gamers – if they even knew of its existence.
If you're a big fan of The Munchables and looking for something else along similar lines, you'll undoubtedly enjoy Tornado Outbreak. It doesn't have the same level of charm or replayability of Namco's title, but it's still certainly worth checking out.
