Still quite a way from release, Namco Bandai Games has made the smart decision of avoiding going up against the likes of Gears of War 3 in the latter half of this year, instead settling on a February 2012 release date for the promising Inversion. This decision has been made in spite of the videogame being ‘content complete’, as Electronic Theatre has been reliably informed is the case, but that doesn’t mean the team at Saber Interactive have closed down their workstations and moved on to something else. Instead, the next few months will be used to add polish to Inversion as it hopes to grab the post-holiday audience after that first 2012 paycheck has arrived.
Immersed Gamer writes: "Let Me Solo Her is a legendary Elden Ring player who mastered one of the most infamous bosses to help his fellow tarnished via co-op. And for his service, he received an award from Namco Bandai to commemorate his 1,000th victory. The reward in question is a real, and extremely dope, custom-made sword.
Malenia is regarded as the hardest boss in Elden Ring, and the relentless Tarnished has defended literally thousands of hosts against this malice. Let Me Solo Her apparently passed 2,000 Malenia kills a while back, but it’s hard to measure the exact count he is at now. Bandai Namco sent the gift his way when he was at around 1,000 kills. But due to the nature of the object, it got stuck in customs for a while!"
Nice to see an healthy online behavior to be recognize by the dev teams.
But man.... How many hours did he spent playing Elden Ring? Not sure it's that healthy in real life 😂
But still kuddo to him :)
Inversion launched 10 years ago today, but failed to leave a lasting impact on the third-person action genre.
I keep a very fond memory of the game. The story is very surprising, with an incredible twist towards the end (and I mean : incredible). Playing solo on hard was actually very hard. One of my best memories of a TPS from that generation.
I remember playing it, back when I was using gamestop as my personal gamefly service. I don't remember the story at all, just that the world would shift. The shooting was really decent for that type of game back then too.
This game was surprisingly awesome. I miss blowing enemies into pieces in video games.
I think the concept is what did this game in.
When most people play games and they come across upside down levels, reverse controls, or anything that breaks convention, they normally groan.
I myself am guilty of that too so. So to have an entire game built around that very concept probably wasn't the best idea.
Laced Records has teamed up with Bandai Namco for the release of a triple vinyl-set featuring music from retro-classics Tekken Tag Tournament & Tekken 4.
TTT is one of my all time favorite games, but I always found its soundtrack to be terrible. I'd mute the music and put my own on.
Is Inversion coming out for the PC?
I keep getting conflicting info. I hope it is cause the game looks great so far.
