Just Dance is Really Popular

Posted Jan 13, 2012 at 1:45PM EST by Listed in: Wii Tags: just dance, just dance 3, modern warfare 3, Ubisoft

The popular dancing game has moved more copies than you can possibly imagine.

In the inner circle of gaming, it’s completely okay to make fun of games like Just Dance 3. Serious gamers think of them as niche products for kids and casuals, and it’s not rare to see a joke at the franchise’s expense over on Reddit or in the comments section of news posts.

What most gamers may not realize, however, is that Just Dance is ridiculously popular. Ubisoft has just revealed sales figures for the most recent iteration, Just Dance 3 – the game moved 7 million copies. That puts Just Dance 3 at second on the charts for 2011, placing it just behind Modern Warfare 3. Seriously.

The franchise haul for Just Dance is now over 25 million, making it one of the more prominent franchises in the world of gaming. Ubisoft also had some other interesting figures; for example, gamers dance to around 7.5 million songs per day.

It’s easy to forget that there’s such a big market out there for games that don’t involve jumping out of helicopters or slaying dragons, but the success of Just Dance proves that fun is the one commodity all gamers demand.

Hilarious SWTOR Bug Makes Dancing Players Invincible

Posted Jan 4, 2012 at 3:44PM EST by Listed in: MMORPG Tags: BioWare, Star Wars, swtor, the old republic

Having trouble with a certain fight in Star Wars: The Old Republic? Dance it out!

In news that comes directly from the “how in the world did this get overlooked” file, it appears that savvy Old Republic players have picked up on a hilarious and game-breaking glitch in the popular MMORPG. Namely, that dancing while in combat makes your player character completely immune to damage.

The bug isn’t necessarily a god cheat – you’ll have to activate the dancing emote at just the right moment to make it work. However, if you happen to pull it off, you’ll interrupt the targeting of any enemy scoping you out for the duration of your dance. Oops!

It’s amazing that this bug somehow made it into the finished version of SWTOR, and you can bet that Bioware will be getting it patched post-haste. In the meantime, any mention of the bug is being removed from the official SWTOR forums; Bioware claims this is just standard operating procedure (they don’t want players spreading glitches).

SWTOR is still young, so there’s bound to be a few weird bugs. Every MMO has them – what is your favorite legendary MMORPG glitch?

Marketing Done Right: SWTOR Frozen Flash Mob

Posted Dec 23, 2011 at 3:38PM EST by Listed in: MMORPG Tags: EA, flash mob, old republic, swtor

Jedi and Sith storm Times Square and create an incredible moments for tourists and fans of the series. Also, publicity.

Flash mobs seem to be an increasingly popular method to get the attention of an ever-distracted populace. We’ve seen mobile phone companies and other businesses use dancing flash mobs for positive press, and who doesn’t love watching people dance their hearts out? Which is why it’s not that surprising that EA would put together a Star Wars flash mob to celebrate the launch of Star Wars: The Old Republic.

What is surprising, however, is what the mob actually did. Namely, nothing:

Everyone just stands in place, giving bystanders the opportunity to snap pictures and place themselves in the battle. It looks really, really cool, so props to EA for putting something this awesome together.

It’s not as awesome as Tanksis, but it’s still pretty rad. In the meantime, however, EA is still struggling to keep up with demand in the actual game – players are facing long queues on most servers.

What do you think of Old Republic and its advertising blitz?

FFXII-2 Tops Japanese Sales Charts

Posted Dec 22, 2011 at 4:57PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: final fantasy xiii, golden abyss, mario kart 7, monster hunter, super mario 3d land, uncharted

Square Enix’s follow up to the maligned Final Fantasy XIII is off to a strong start in Japan. Duh.

If there’s one thing Japan loves, it’s Final Fantasy. So it’s not entirely surprising that Final Fantasy XIII-2, which launched earlier this week for Japanese gamers, has already rocketed to the top of the sales charts. The game moved 500,000 copies in its first week of release, toppling Monster Hunter 3G from the top of the charts and renewing confidence in the Final Fantasy brand.

Of course, Japanese sales trends aren’t always indicative of western performance (as I said, Monster Hunter was #1 until this happened), but it’s definitely good news for Square Enix that their hardcore fan base wasn’t so upset with FFXIII that they abandoned the brand entirely. The actual sales figure, around 525,000, accounts only for PS3 versions of the game.

Some Vita titles also managed to make the list, a good sign for the fledgling handheld. Here’s the top 20, for those of you that like tracking Japanese game sales:

01. [PS3] Final Fantasy XIII-2 (Square Enix, 12/15): 525,271

02. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G (Capcom, 12/10): 208,427 (730,386)

03. [3DS] Mario Kart 7 (Nintendo, 12/01): 182,418 (789,871)

04. [3DS] Inazuma Eleven Go (Level-5, 12/15): 135,259

05. [3DS] Super Mario 3D Land (Nintendo, 11/03): 112,533 (837,143)

06. [WII] Kirby Wii (Nintendo, 10/27): 71,028 (398,516)

07. [PSV] Hot Shots Golf 6 (Sony, 12/17): 61,412

08. [PSV] Uncharted Golden Abyss (Sony, 12/17): 48,224

09. [WII] Just Dance Wii (Nintendo, 10/13): 44,021 (323,293)

10. [WII] Poke Park 2 (Pokemon, 11/12): 43,829 (164,018)

11. [WII] Wii Party (Pokemon, 07/08/10): 42,632 (2,129,236)

12. [NDS] Magician's Quest: The Merchant's Store of Sorcery (Konami, 12/10): 35,068 (81,110)

13. [WII] Mario & Sonic at London Olympics (Pokemon, 11/12): 34,351 (64,573)

14. [PS3] Shin Kamaitachi no Yoru (Chunsoft, 12/17): 33,686

15. [PS3] BlazBlue Continuum Shift Extend (Arc System Works, 12/17): 32,992

16. [WII] Wii Sports Resort (Nintendo, 11/11/10): 30,804 (734,046)

17. [WII] Taiko Drum Master Wii Ultimate Version (Namco Bandai, 11/23): 30,046 (100,284)

18. [PSV] Dynasty Warriors Next (Tecmo Koei, 12/17): 29,181

19. [PSV] Lord of Apocalypse (Square Enix, 12/17): 28,742

20. [NDS] One Piece Gigant Battle! 2 (Namco Bandai, 11/17): 28,406 (207,458)

Nintendo is clearly the king of the party in Japan, despite the temporary dominance of one game or another. In the meantime, we’ll just have to wait and see how FFXIII-2 is received here in the west. The previous game was the best selling in the history of the franchise, but also landed to lukewarm reviews.

How do you think FFXIII-2 will do when it’s released in the west? Also, don’t you just hate typing “FFXIII-2?”

Wal-Mart Black Friday Sale is Good for Gamers

Posted Nov 11, 2011 at 1:37PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: Black Friday, gears of war 3, kinect sports, mario and sonic

If you’re having trouble keeping up with the steady stream of fall releases, Black Friday may provide you with a nice opportunity for picking up anything you’ve missed.

Black Friday is a strange tradition, but it’s one that holds quite a bit of marketing sway here in the States. I’m not sure why exactly everyone decided that the day after Thanksgiving was the best shopping day of the year, or why retailers decided to turn it into a cataclysmic shopping event, but that’s just the world we live in now. Black Friday sales amount for a seriously large percentage of holiday revenue.

If waiting in line at stores early in the morning and trampling other people to get electronic goods is your speed, Wal-Mart has you covered with this year’s ridiculous video game Black Friday offers.

Here’s a basic rundown on what you’ll find at the big-box retailer on shopping’s most intense day:

$199 Xbox Bundle 1

4G Xbox 360

3 months of Live

Gears of War 3

$50 Wal-Mart gift card

$199 Xbox Bundle 2

4G Xbox 360

Kinect

Kinect Adventures

$50 Wal-Mart gift card

$199 PS3 Bundle

160GB PS3

Ratchet & Clank All 4 One

LittleBigPlanet 2

3 months of Sony Plus

$100 Wii Bundle

Blue Nintendo Wii

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games

If consoles aren’t your bag, the software deals are pretty sharp as well: For $28, you can pick up Gears of War 3, Arkham City, Call of Duty: Black Ops and Infamous 3. $15 snags you Kinect Sports 2 and Dance Central 2, and Yakuza 4 is on sale for $10. There are a number of other specials going on, but those seem to be the most high profile.

Is it worth braving the crowds and chaos to grab a good deal on games?

The World Just Exploded with Uncharted 3 Reviews

Posted Oct 24, 2011 at 12:44PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: Harrison Ford, Naughty Dog, Sony, uncharted 3 reviews

Drake’s latest adventure just blew up all over my Twitter feed. Let’s find out what some of the major reviewers are saying about what could be the biggest PlayStation 3 title of the year.

As someone that has a general taste for Sony and the PlayStation brand, I have to admit that I’m a little jealous of Uncharted. The game looks amazing, the story is great, and as much as it pains me to say it, they did an excellent job on both of the games that have come out so far. So, nice work to the Naughty Dog team and congratulations to PS3 owners everywhere – you finally won one.

Anyway, Uncharted 3 has been sitting in the back of everyone’s mind even as Activision and EA ramp up their ridiculous war for the holiday season. Last week we saw a little bit of the game through Harrison Ford’s eyes, and the multiplayer beta (available only at Subway!) has generated a fair amount of buzz. Regardless of any perceived battle of the titans, Uncharted 3 is still holding a significant amount of attention from both the gaming media and fans of the brand.

I periodically check my Twitter (follow me! @Mikedotfoster) feed for breaking news updates when I’m writing, and the last update found my feed under siege with Uncharted 3 reviews. So let’s see what the preliminary response to the game has turned out to be:

Joystiq – 4.5 Stars

They loved the co-op mode, praised the game’s excellent storytelling and graphics, and essentially said the game was an inch away from perfection. They did note that a lot of the game’s greatness comes from re-using elements of Uncharted 2, but called this more of a positive than negative.

GameTrailers – 9.5 out of 10

Voice acting is praised and the script is noted as one of the game’s strongest elements. They noted a continued lack of flexibility from former titles, but fans of the game are probably used to this facet and consider it a plus. The game’s massive set pieces are mentioned as a major highlight, but the poor enemy AI draws some negative attention. Overall, they say the game “can’t be missed.”

IGN – 10 out of 10

IGN’s review could only be described as “gushing.” They even went so far as to call the game a “masterpiece,” focusing entirely on the massive set pieces and series of high-budget action sequences. IGN says that Uncharted 3 is one of “gaming’s finest moments,” but their review seems lacking on any technical analysis and focuses almost entirely on the emotional experiences of the player.

Ars Technica – (No Rating)

As with the other reviews, a strong focus is placed on the strong character development and impressive narrative. They do note that the game dances with believability a little bit, and that the combat system still feels pretty rough in certain situations. They also mention that the jumping puzzles are repetitive, but overall give the game high praise and consider it an achievement for Naughty Dog and the PS3.

EuroGamer – 8 out of 10

Calling the single-player campaign “peerless,” EuroGamer sings high praise about the game’s execution but pulls back their accolades by calling Uncharted 3 narrow and shallow. They note that fans of the franchise and cinema will be happy with this latest title, but shouldn’t expect too much in the way of risk-taking or flexibility.

Overall, it looks like Uncharted 3 is a strong buy. There’s no room to customize your experience and the story is apparently straight as an arrow, but the multiplayer seems to add replay value and the overall experience can’t be matched. A fitting new entry to one of the best PS3 franchises, and one that should keep fans happy for some time to come.

Are you picking up Uncharted 3 next week?

Starhawk aims for the cinematics

Posted Sep 28, 2011 at 7:21AM EST by Mabie A. Listed in: PC Gaming Tags: lightbox interactive, Sony, starhawk

While not all Hollywood adaptation of video games work, that doesn't mean there's nothing to be learned from the Hollywood in terms of developing a game.

Starhawk developers Lightbox Interactive is picking up on this very theory, aiming for a more cinematic approach with their latest title.

Said Dylan Jobe, they're trying to make it more engaging in terms of story, more than Warhawk ever was. The discussion about this very thing went on in a panel at the convention Fantastic Arcade, in Austin Texas, which included filmmakers and game developers alike.

Jobe explained thus, "With Warhawk, the mechanics were crazy fun but the universe was just hollow. A good story and a hero makes the whole thing more compelling, and we brought in talent from the film industry to work on the univrse of Starhawk before we even began to think who the characters would be.

Writing is something video games still need to improve on. There's a lot of really bad writing in video games and also in the way that the story is integrated."

Film director Nacho Vigalondo then chimes in at the panel, and goes on to express his disappointment at how some games, while they do have good gameplay potential, lacks the push of a good story. "I feel frustrated when I play a game like Dead Space that has great mechanics, but a lack of ambition in the story. If it was a movie, with its plot it would be a B-movie, not a big-budget film."

So going back to Starhawk and its goal of making it more cinematic, "We pulled an entire mission out to be part of the cinematic story moments. It actually worked to make the game flow better and more naturally push the player into the next mission; it wasn't that we're trying to make a film or remove the player's control, but it's important to understand how story moments can benefit your game."

It shouldn't be all too bad for game developers to want to hone in on the cinematic aspect of the videogame, after all, it's very much a visual medium inasmuch as it's about strategy and skills. As long as the balance between gameplay and visuals are there, then it shouldn't be problem.

Fans in attendance at the Comic-Con were in for a treat as they got to have a hands-on session with the game. Their testimonials, of course, were put on video for all to see.
