Well we have to keep an eye on things, and it seems one of OXCGN's writers is doing so as well.
Especially around Activisions activities of late. Now it's pupping out games at a decent rate, and it seems that i t is not too fussed as to their contents either.
Come check out what the next James Bond Multiplayer game is all about, or more to the point, not about - James Bond.
"Of course, we cant say otherwise about Activision or Nintendo, even though the companies could be a bit upset they did not manage to break some records with their titles. But maybe next year
until then, here are the bestselling titles in the UK:
1. FIFA 09
2. Call of Duty: World at War
3. Mario Kart Wii
4. Need For Speed Undercover
5. Dr Kawashimas Brain Training
6. Wii Play
7. Quantum of Solace
8. Professor Layton and the Curious Village
9. Tomb Raider Underworld
10. Wii Fit"
"EA SPORTS FIFA 09 has become UKs all-format Christmas number one following a late sales spike at the retailers. The highly successful sports title, which was considered second-place in the running for the top spot, stole the accolade from under Activisions Call Of Duty: World At Wars nose..."
A very special week! This is about the third week in a row we've had a killer line-up, so be prepared to make your light wallet even lighter, me thinks.
First there's Quantum of Solace (which received a "passable" IGN review), then NHL '09 for hockey fans, Resistance 2 (in a special collector's edition, too, if you fancy that sort of thing), Valkyria Chronicles (which, conversely, IGN quite liked), and Gears of War 2. Meanwhile DS owners get a couple of very special treats (just after Hall...
Attend the midnight launch for the Quantum of Solace game, get a exclusive Guitar Hero World Tour track. Not a bad idea, good promotion for the movie and for another game, however, it is a bad song.
"Lets get right to the good stuff: Theres prizes that range from $10.00 all the way up to $2,500. In fact, Best Buy is giving away three PlayStation 3 units, a Sony BRAVIA XBR 52 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV and some other goodies."
"Following our report on last week's Resistance 2 Beta Key Giveaway for customers who pre-order at Gamestation in the UK, we now have details of a similar promotion the retailer is now offering for the forthcoming Quantum of Solace from Activision. Heres the release details in full..."
James Bond: Quantum of Solace - the latest James Bond game in development - shall hit American shores on November 4th, but what if you pre-order the game at Best Buy or GameStop?
Over at GameStop, you shall receive a rare in-game multiplayer map. Hit the source for the Best Buy goodie.
"Activision has finally slapped a release date on their upcoming Quantum of Solace movie tie-in. The James Bond-flavored first-person shooter should be hitting North American stores on November 4 -- just over a week before the film's opening night. That should be more than enough time to play through the game for a refresher on the events of Casino Royale, and maybe a few spoilers from the new flick to boot."
"Chrono Trigger DS
Developer: Square Enix
Publisher: Square Enix
Release Date: November 24, 2008
Genre: RPG
What to Expect: Chrono Trigger is heralded as one of the greatest RPGs ever made, and many fans will claim it's better than any Final Fantasy title. With hype like that everyone better hope the remastered DS version of the SNES game holds up. We can assure you that if you like RPGs, you'll love Chrono Trigger. The game is huge, (13 endings!) has great characters, solid battles and..."
We've all been wondering what games will contain Trophies, ever since they launched back a couple of months ago, and whilst only a few titles have been patched with trophies so far, how exactly does the future of Trophies and the Playstation 3 look? Well, ps3trophies.org decided to go to Leipzig to ask that question and they've got back a list of games that will include trophy support.
"How do you make James Bond the video game character feel like James Bond the movie character?
That was the question I posed several different ways to Garrett Young, the executive producer of this falls first-person game Quantum of Solace, during a phone interview earlier this week. For instance
* How do you make sure he doesnt shoot so many people that he no longer seems like a suave super-spy?
* How do you make the player feel like a ladies man?
Well, it starts with m..."
