Street Fighter characters are coming to PAIN. This is more or less confirmed. Somehow the new trophies coming for the next add-on already appear on the compare trophy list (at least sometimes). I wonder what characters will be there. Mo...

Seriously I didn't expect this. First of all this is months late and second who hasn't picked the game up yet and is still interested enough to play the demo? Also the fantastic Bayonetta TGS trailer is up as well.

Are you enjoying your Mega Man 9 DLC? Although I really think all the DLC should have been in the game and they should have charged $15 for it, I'm OK with it. Those are some nice additions. Especially Endless Mode is genious. But enough a...

OMG! What a day yesterday was. Not only got I invited to home, I also got Rock Band 2 and Little Big Planet. So now I'm a very happy person. Also I picked up some games from the Japanese Game Archives. Magical Drop still is amazing and I wo...

This morning I finally got a beta invite from Sony Japan to join home, but since I got up late I only had 10 minutes to mess around with it before going to work. After trying out different accounts and figuring out, that only the account,...

The last week I was very busy playing a lot of games and earning trophies like an idiot. Yeah, I'm a stupid trophy whore. Also I finally got a banner picture. It only took me some months to make one... Anyways this week's update isn't g...

Everybody who hasn't read up on the E3 2009, should do so now. Like over here. From the looks of things E3 will go back to being the colossus of a game show next year. Big booths and masses of people. This year's E3 was strange in a lot...

OK, I'm finally back in Germany. I really enjoyed my time in Japan and at the TGS. Since I've been doing this before leaving to Japan, I will pick it up again now. Note: This is not me. JAPAN: October 14th: Mainichi Issyo TGS 2008 trail...

Actually I wanted to post a longer blog, but because of not sleeping much tonight and running around at the TGS all day, I won't. Perhaps some other time. I also took quite a few cosplay pictures, that I will share with all of you one day. ...

It was actually nothing spectacular. They only should art works. But since Colette asked for it, I'll post the pictures I made. If those pictures are insufficient I can still take more tommorow.

Today I got up early, because I was heading to the TGS. Of course I just missed one of the rapid trains and had to wait for the next one, so I didn't exactly make it there very early. Once I got there, people were still waiting to get there...

It was at the Koei press conference. I guess you can guess, who it was: Mr. Jim Sterling. And he was way taller, than I thought he would be. That's all. PS: I'm the other person in the picture.

The following has been a rumor before, but the latest Famitsu confirmed this. Chrono Trigger DS will have 3 big additions: 1. The bonus dungeon Dragon’s Sanctuary: This is a all new dungeon. There isn't much more information about this...

I just played the new Samurai Showdown aracde game. I played a lot of bad fighting games, but this one is certainly one of the worst. Especially for Samurai Showdown fans this game is disgusting. For some strange reason they decided to ma...

Last week I had the chance to play some PS3 at a friends house here in Japan. Not only did I use the chance to play some Mega Man 9 and wipEout HD, but also did I pick up a copy of Aquanaut's Holiday, because I already enjoyed the diving ...

After travelling from Tokyo to Nagasaki and Kagoshima, I am now in Hiroshima, where I studied for one year at the university 2 years ago. Pics unrelated to the text. - Unlike in Tokyo you cannot find Street Fighter IV in every Arcade in ot...

Ok I got here on Monday so it's not really a full week yet, but I leave Tokyo tommorow and go to Kyushu so for me this ends the first part of my vacation. Anyways a few things I noticed here that are video game related: - Street Fighter I...

http://prinny.jp/ It was about time. Unlike the main Disgaea series, this one will be an action game for the PSP. Looks interesting.

Busy, busy, busy. I'm really busy this week. Anyways this week you will only get a short rundown of the important stuff: Japan gets some videos: Check out the new Aquanaut's Holiday trailer. wilbo: EU PSN Update: Sucks Worse Edition US ge...

Finally the PS3 is also getting some Q Games love with Lumines: Supernova. The game is slated for fall '08 (which has already started) in Japan and will feature new stages and modes. It will be released on the PSN store. As of now there...

Yes, I'm actually bummed out about The Last Guy. I payed 500Yen to play the Japanese Premium, that was nothing more than a glorified demo of the game, and now they want another 2000Yen of me for the full version? Actually since I didn't en...

Yes, I'm a trophy whore. Right now I'm at 104 trophies and level 5. And yes, I do feel kinda filthy about it. Of course cheating to get trophies isn't the right thing to do, but a trophy whore has to do what a trophy whore has to do. As y...

Once upon a time you had to replay certain parts of a game again and again, because you had to. And you know what? Those times were filled with joy and laughter. What makes World 1-1 or World 1-2 in Super Mario Bros. such classic levels,...

I just saw this on the German site Schnittberichte.com, that features articles about what videogames are censored where, and it's quite hilarious. On the left side you will find the original Japanese version and on the right is the internat...

or Valkyria of the Battlefield: Gallian Chronicles. I finally got the Japanese version some time ago and I'm totally in love with the game. The art style looks incredible and the battle system is something completely fresh and new. The ...

Yes, I am a Sony fanboy. My cell phone is from Sony-Ericsson, my mp3-player is a Sony walkman, I love the PSP and my console of choice is the PS3. I just have a strange fascination with Sony's quality products. That being said, I still wan...

Yep, Quest for Booty is available on all stores. For Ratchet & Clank fans it's a no-brainer. Everybody else get Tools of Destruction first. JAPAN August 19th: AFRIKA trailer - Oh, I want this game so bad. August 21st: Ratchet & Clank FUT...

Today my brother got a review code for Quest for Booty and shared it with me. That made me really really happy today, since I'm a big fan of that series. Anyways after about 3 hours of downloading and another 3 hours of playing the game,...

Last year on my trip to Japan I checked out the arcade version of the game and was pretty amazed about the art direction, since it takes a lot of influences from the RPG genre. Under your health bar you can find your health being displayed...
