Cross Edge English Trailer

Here is the debut English trailer for Cross Edge on the Playstation 3.

But it has a very interesting concept. For some reason, however, it seems a bit like a fighting game.

I'll definitely be keeping my eye on this one.

My...ears...are....bleeding. Damn I hate english dubs. Grown women trying a little to hard to sound like young girls.

You'd think with 5 liscensis involved they could have uped the overall look of the game. This could have been released as a PSP title from the look of it. The real question being..."Why didn't they?"

Still dont know much about it yet but the cast looks good, the gameplay looks familiar and friendly, just have to wait. Please give the option for Japanese dialog. I will go out and buy any game that supports the practice of JP/EN dual audio.

Thank god cause only Etna, Dimitri and Prinny sounded good in English dub

lepolohuevo5923d ago

I'm praying for japanese dubs

Top 10 Enthusiasm Killers in Games

BT: "We’ve all been there. You’re playing a game, having a great time, and then all of a sudden you’re hit with that one thing that will absolutely kill your enthusiasm. You think to yourself, this particular quirk of the game won’t show up too often, and when it does, you’ll be able to power through it. But no! It turns out that particular quirk is one of the main gameplay mechanics!

I have so many games sitting on my shelf that I haven’t finished. Games that I was just unable to get through because there was something about the gameplay, some annoying hitch in the game’s design that just completely killed my will to go on and made me shelf the game. Of course, there is a scale to such annoyances and some of us are willing to endure one more than others. Even though tolerances may differ, I think most of us can agree there are some common threads that run through these games.

There won’t be any special rules for this list, but instead I’m going to include a brief list of some common offenders of the things that I list. Bear in mind, this does not mean these are bad games. Even the best games sometimes suffer from something that really causes your enthusiasm to take a hit. So let’s take a look at what we all love to hate!"

“Save the Princess” Syndrome, is in almost every game. It can be saving the world or a person.

I just hate things that don't fit. The planet scanning in Mass Effect 2 for example.

gcolley4989d ago (Edited 4989d ago )

i don't understand how there can be bad AI in any game these days. surely, unlike graphics, it should have matured but instead seems to just be rewritten for every new game from the ground up. is there not a couple of AI middleware players out there waiting to clean up?

how can a game today have the same AI problems as a 10 year old game?

good article BTW

Devil May Cry's camera makes navigation more interesting...and not a chore like many other games. I love DMC!

Voice Actor Spotlight: Melissa Fahn

TGT: Girls that look like Melissa Fahn never gave me the time of day in high school. They discovered I watched anime, played video games and practiced my own amateurish voice acting in my spare time and immediately turned their noses up at me. Nerd. Geek. Dweeb. Freak.

So to come across such a stone cold stunner sharing my exact interests and providing the voices behind some of my favorite anime and video game characters, I’m a little taken aback. Beautiful, funny, smart, nerdy. It’s a geekified grandslam. But sorry, Melissa. I’m married, you’re married. We’d be doomed to failure. It would never work out between us.
