Shiren the Wanderer is a game that I have missed entirely and I feel bad about it. The game is about Shiren, who is given a key by his former master, who then has to solve a millennium old mystery and find out about a sleeping princess inside Karakuri Mansion.

With a feudal Japan setting, Shiren the Wanderer is a welcome addition to the Nintendo Wii family.

It’s always interesting to see throwbacks to old game styles on current consoles. With that in mind, 3D Dot Game Heroes takes that idea in a entirely amazing direction. Taking the 8-bit style and creating a three dimensional world sounds easy, but from the look of the trailer and the screens, 3D Dot Game Heroes is not going to be a game easily dismissed.

A new update for Maple Story releasing in December introducing a new class of players.

Capcom has announced the new content update for Resident Evil 5. In the new DLC will be two new episodes, new costumes (Resident Evil makes an appearance), and Mercenaries Reunion which has eight new playable characters and weapons load outs.

The DLC is scheduled to be released in the Spring of 2010 for $49.99.

Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition will be the box copy of the game which will release after the DLC. PlayStation 3 users will get the game and added content on one Blu-ray disc and Xbox 360 users will receive a DVD with a token for the DLC.

While I don’t consider myself to be a hardcore RPG fan and usually stick to titles that I’m more familiar with; when I began Dragon Age: Origins, I found myself immersed in the deep storyline.

Bioware is known for excellent RPG games, and they haven’t disappointed with Dragon Age: Origins. The huge amount of side quests extend the life of the game and learning about the world itself is a lot of reading, but those who want to know everything about the world will be able to.

Well, it’s that time of year again. The time when all of those big-shot game developers KNOW that you are sitting on your fat butts looking for something fun to do, so of course all of the best games are released! Well we all know that Valve has an impressive track record with The Orange Box and the previous Left 4 Dead, so we should certainly expect nothing less than gold from their new zombie slasher-thrasher, but should you spend your hard earned money on this, or one of the many other new releases? Well I’d like to thank Valve for sending me an early copy of the game to review for all of you, so here are my thoughts on Left 4 Dead 2.
