The Hachiko writes: "I'm a big fan of fighting games, but Soulcalibur has always been one of those franchises that I can appreciate from the standpoint of being a top quality game, but yet my prowess is generally so poor at it that I rarely spend much time with the game after I've bought it. I was surprised then to find Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny at my doorstep, but even more surprised that I was enjoying it more as a handheld offering than any of its past games on any past next-gen system."
Phil writes, "If you've been around SuperPhillip Central for a little while (it's still okay if you haven't, so no harm done), then you know that I like talking about underrated and overlooked games. I've done various series on the subject. However, most of the time, the games mentioned in these articles are from wholly new or overlooked franchises themselves.
There are also a multitude of series that I can think of that have one, two, or a handful of games in it that aren't viewed as highly as the others, whether just or not.
These ideas are where the concept of All-Star Franchises, Underrated Entries comes from, and since our 13th edition, I've come up with six more underrated entries to big-time franchises, some bigger than others."
Carl Williams writes, "In video games, we don’t see too many crossover events. It is probably due to the fact that video game companies are quite litigious with each other. That is a shame, though, as it would be interesting to see more gaming crossover events that are not Super Smash Bros or a Capcom and SNK fighting game. While it was a little bit of work, we have tracked down five awesome gaming crossovers that you have forgotten about."
Since everyone was at E3 this week, and are likely to spend a little while recovering from the event, the slate of games for June 18th is a very light one, with not a single PlayStation 3 game scheduled for release at this moment. Of course, The Last of Us is out today/tomorrow. - PSLS
