TalkRadar 37 – Killzone is the light (Feature)

Feb 6, 2009

TalkRadar’s 37th episode closes out a week tinged by two strange and insignificant controversies. First, baby games suddenly became relevant, after the babbling in Baby Pals was accused of harboring a hidden Islamic message. Then, (some of) the reviews for Killzone 2 hit almost a month ahead of the game’s release, prompting a cavalcade of outrage from people who felt the 9s and 10s were either too high, too low or just generally suspect ...

Feb 4, 2009

Remember 2002? Spider-Man was making big bucks at the theater, Nickelback was belting out its latest made-for-lonely-secretaries ballad and Rygar, a franchise that’d been MIA since 1990, suddenly had a new lease on life. Reviews were good for the retro remake, praising its combo-happy, gladiator-meets-Lord of the Rings action and ancient Greece backdrop. Play magazine even said it was “absolutely stunning in every way." ...

Rygar For Wii Delayed...Again (News)

Dec 9, 2008

1Up writes:

I have some bad news for people who were looking forward to picking up Rygar: The Battle of Argus for the Wii this week...it's been delayed until February of next year. No reason was cited by Tecmo, but it's likely the publisher wanted to avoid the busy holiday season (after all, the game is entirely done and ready to go). Also, no changes are going to be made to the game in the meantime -- it's just being held for an extra two months. This isn't the first time the game was delayed, either; it was originally supposed to ship earlier this fall. Tecmo will likely make an official announcement of the delay tomorrow morning.

Unfortunately for me, I found out about the delay just this morning...after I spent all last night playing it to have my review ready for tomorrow's release. Sigh. At least I had a great time with it -- the game is just as fun as it was on the PS2, meaning that Wii owners seeking a good God of War or Castlevania style action/adventure game that missed out on Rygar the first time around ought to look forward to it.

Rygar: Battle of Argus - the only Wii game that matters? (Preview)

Oct 2, 2008

The Wii, Nintendo's magic money machine, has been crazy successful. Every month it sells an estimated sextillion units, and its games are consistently best sellers. But as we pointed out recently , its upcoming titles for the rest of the year leave something to be desired. Ignoring Nintendo-published titles, almost every game is a cooking title that teaches kids math while you lose weight playing Sudoku on the balance board. ...
