Japan In you're living room!

Boy has it been a few crazy months for SEGA and Yakuza 3, well silence has finally fell upon on the gaming crowd for a Yakuza 3 demo was finally released just a few days back provided with full english translation and subtitles, for those like me who just loved the ridiculous fighting styles while indulging themselves on a tasty meal of Miso or Ramen, the series of Yakuza was a real treat for people with a love of such things but when the news that Yakuza 3 was never planned to hit western shores, cries from across the USA and EU were all that could be seen and heard for months as endless forum threads and videos were created to underline such a mistake made by SEGA until they finally confirmed the existence of a project based on localising the game into several different languages. It was believed that such information was a lie or fault until eventually our solemn prayers were answered with a package left for us over the psn and in all honesty, the game has possessed more than I had imagined with it's massive mix of rpg/fighting gameplay along with its crazy yet subtle features of Karaoke and side shooters hidden throughout the streets of Tokyo. Although some of the dialogue was slow and uninteresting, most of this was made up for when small stabs of humor are injected into each individual conversation and cutscene although not always for the right reasons, but having seen myself replay this demo for a fourth turn I can officially say this game is ready to be welcomed into my gaming archive without any hesitation and as I have mentioned in forums myself, lets just hope that we can get the same deal with Yakuza 4 no matter how long it takes.

God of District 9?

I was already hungry for a Blu ray copy of District 9 to hit the shelves after missing its release in cinema's but I never saw this coming, a God of War 3 demo has been confirmed to hit shelves along with a Blu ray copy of District 9 on its release this December and for those who have completed the demo a featurette will also be added in. Something tells me these will fly off the shelves quicker than Halo 3 copies on its day one release all I can do is hope that i get my hands on copy before there gone.

Eurogamer events

As you all know, Eurogamer will be visiting London. We have been planning for this for so long that it still confuses us at why it took so long to plan but now that its done I can officially say that we will have video footage on the showcase floor as well as photographs around the floor. And as for Jkkfreelance (Jacques Hulme), hopefully he should have footage from within the conference room which will be seen on his second site which is currently listed in the links.

I just hope that I will be able to get my shaking hands on a good portion of the Bayonetta, Heavy Rain and Mass Effect 2 demo as ive had my fingers crossed for weeks.
