Well, I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t know squat about cars. Hell, I even grew up in a family whose business was selling them, and I still couldn’t tell you what a rear differential was. Nonetheless, Codemasters sent me a copy of their newest racing game Dirt 2, and all I’ve got to say is DAMN! Now, I haven’t even played a racing game since one of the early Need For Speeds on the PC, and back then, there wasn’t much skill involved to be a leet driver, you just held down the gas pedal and drove. So take this review for what it’s worth. I’m not a racing game guy, but I thought this game was amazing! Released this past September for all consoles and handles, and this coming December for the PC, is Codemasters’ Dirt 2.
Zombie Tycoon is the first PSPMini title that I had the chance to play. With the comparison to Apple iTunes App Store, I was hoping not to expect the bloatware that mainly exists on Apple’s service. Thankfully, Zombie Tycoon is a nice pickup and play title that moves quickly and has enough style to keep it interesting, even if the gameplay does get a little repetitive.
Having never played a Shin Megami Tensei title, but hearing a lot of positive reactions to the series, I was interested in playing this port of the first title. Granted the game is a little old, but the original localization of the game left a lot out and probably confused a lot of American gamers.
This updated and vastly improved edition of the game is a great way to experience the origins of the series, as it was meant to be.
As a big fan of the Japanese movie Crows Zero and its sequel Crows Zero 2, I was really interested in Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble and the portrayal of Japanese High School thugs in this game. Atlus has been releasing many interesting games lately, many of which might have not gotten a chance to see past the shores of Japan and Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble is one of those games that deserves a chance for wider appreciation.
The game takes place over seven days in Kyoto on a high school trip. Over these seven days, the goal is to defeat all the other school’s Banchos and become the best fighter in Japan. An interesting side note is that while the game focuses on the journey to become the best fighter, it also includes a secondary relationship gameplay function in the game.

Need For Speed: Shift is a great game. You can read about that here. Another great thing about the game is that it’s still getting love in the form of unlockable cars, expanding the already impressive garage of cars that are in game.
Check out this new video of the Coke Zero Dodge Viper SRT10, some screens and how to get the code to unlock the car.
Kenka Bancho will be releasing on PlayStation Portable on November 10 and Atlus has seen fit to release some new screens of the game to prepare the unleashing of the badassness of the Banchos in the game.
Taking the themes from the Japanese High School gangster movies and manga, Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble is a great way to see how crazy it can be, without the actual physical violence.
Check out our review of the game which will be coming out this week.
Obscure: The Aftermath has just been ported for the PSP, just in time for Halloween! You could indulge in your favorite cult horror Blockbuster rental, why not dive into a survival horror game for a much more interactive experience?
This is my first taste of the Obscure franchise, having missed out on not only the first game, but also the original version of this sequel. I hope to offer a unique view to others who have never had the pleasure, but are curious to give it a try.
