Leave Luck to Heaven #20: Riding the Rails with Biohazard
Recapping the events of Resident Evil Zero, Resident Evil and Resident Evil 3, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is the first of two rail shooters on the Wii. The game also contains little extra clips you can find that expand the story. This expanded story information sometimes is either from other games or is added to bridge gaps that exist in the story. As a rail shooter, the game simply requires you to aim at the … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #19: Sony Overcomes Networking @ E3
For a company that should have been focused on apologies for their network Sony still came to E3 strong. Nintendo seems to have taken a large focus this year (especially when fans are writing the articles *cough*) but Sony also came to the show with new hardware and interesting game choices. The game choices seem interesting to me because two of the biggest, Bioshock Infinite and Resistance 3, have no Move support. In fairness this is … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #18: E3 Day Two Coverage
Well Nintendo has announced plenty of games, very few of which were for the DS. This really doesn’t come as a surprise with the rise of the 3DS but maybe a few more games would have been nice. Nintendo does seem to be giving the DS a pretty good send off. Two of the final games for the system are Professor Layton and a new Kirby. Professor Layton and the Last Specter is as fantastic as … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #17: E3 Coverage – Wii U
The big news this year is obviously the unveiling by Nintendo of Project Cafe, now known as Wii U. Really all that was truly revealed was what the system and controller look like and the demo control schemes. The most surprising and interesting of these was the virtual space. Because the controller seems to be a game centric iPad, this allows developers to place things off screen that can be viewed with out changing the … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #16: A Look at an Unusual Peripheral
Nintendo systems have had some amazing peripherals. On the flip side they have also had some bizarre and ridiculous peripherals. Some examples of these ridiculous peripherals are the 3D glasses for the original Famicom or any of those sports/sword/fishing reel attachments for the Wii remote. The original Game Boy had some of the best bizarre peripherals however, such as the Pocket Sonar. The Pocket Sonar was literally a peripheral that plugged into the system and … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #15: The Lunar Series Wanes Fast
My two favourite RPGs on the original Playstation were Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete. The games were actually remakes of Sega CD games, updating graphics and additional music. I even went out of my way to play the Game Boy Advance’s Lunar Legend, which was an abridged version of Silver Star Story. The newest remake is for the PSP and supposedly has expanded storylines, but before this one Lunar: Dragon … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #14: Bomberman, Simple and Fun
The last time I played a Bomberman game it was on the original Nintendo. Even though the games have been on every system, to my knowledge, never really played any of the newer ones. I remember the games being the simple idea of blowing up obstructions and enemies, while avoiding the explosions and enemies. The idea of 3D versions never really appealed much as it was a game that seemed perfect for the isometric view … Read entire article »

Leave Luck to Heaven #13: Viewtiful Joe, I Miss You
For the uninitiated, Viewtiful Joe was set to be a trilogy on the Gamecube and later on the PS2. Now in reality there were three games on the Gamecube, but the final one, Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble was a spinoff based on the show that was also a spinoff. Instead the series never had a formal ending, due mostly to Capcom dissolving the subsidiary, Clover Studio, before it could happen. This was due to … Read entire article »
