Tokyo Game Show, Podcasting, and Fallout 3 DLC Begins
TOKYO GAME SHOW 2009
Again I awoke to few, if any, Tokyo Game Show updates worth mentioning. It looks like the event may be losing its momentum as it gets closer to being opened to the public. I still wish I got to go for swag and food purposes.
A few more disappointingly short trailers, devoid of new information have surfaced. Take this Persona 3 Portable trailer for instance:
It’s mostly a fusion of existing trailers we’ve already seen, arranged to distract the viewer from the fact that they aren’t learning anything. Kind of like watching reality TV right?
I daresay the most successful and interesting enterprise of the event is easily Kojima’s Metal Gear Solids. He’s somehow managed to really provide substantial information about both his two projects (Peace Walker and Rising) and his philosophy on gaming in general. Case in point: this excellent article by Stephen Totilo via Kotaku. That’s right: I just liked to Kotaku. Boo-ya.
If there was a Kotowari award for Tokyo Game Show Champion, Kojima gets it.
PODCASTING
Mark and Glenn of PSNation were nice enough to have me on their most recent podcast to discuss current events and review a few recent/upcoming RPGs. It was a lot of fun and I think we did a pretty thorough job discussing Demon’s Souls specifically. I plan on having my review up soon for the game, but if you want a preview of my thoughts this is definitely a good place to start.
I noticed I said “like” a lot. Damn. I guess I am more eloquent when writing than talking. I knew I should have taken public speaking in high school! Anyway, if all goes well I will probably be back on Mark and Glenn’s podcasts sometime again.
FALLOUT 3 DLC HITS PSN
Yesterday, Broken Steel went on sale on the PlayStation network. I cannot tell you how long I have waited for this day. Fallout 3 blew me away last year and is still one of my favorite games for the PS3. This particular piece of DLC really builds on the game by providing story after the somewhat controversial ending. It also increases the level cap from twenty to thirty and provides some more difficult enemies to keep things interesting.
Bethesda was kind enough to provide me with a PSN code for Broken Steel, so I plan on diving into it as soon as possible. Expect a review soon!
