Straight from the Capcom Mobile crew to
your iPhone, it's KENKEN (not to be
confused with Ken).
This is basically puzzle master Will Shortz's favorite,
more juicy version of Sudoku, and at only $4.99, this and
it absolutely melts flights away.
One of our latest
games, Dark Void, has a real historical scientist
creating some of the tech in the game. For instance, the
Jet Pack you'll be using constantly in the game. You'll
recognize this scientist as Nikola Tesla.
He'sresponsiblefor some of the most
amazing research on the planet. In fact, one of his
Laboratories in Long Island,Wardenclyffe, is up
for sale.
The New York Times has
an interesting read about it, and what Tesla did there.
One of the mostfascinatingbits was
that this was the site of an 18 story tower that Tesla
had constructed, similar to his Tesla
Coil. Aside from that, Tesla even started
developing the worlds first schematics for ray-guns. In
fact, they've even found four tanks on his property...
and no one is exactly sure what he had in store for
those.
Check out the
full
article here. Who knows what
else is in there... Maybe even early proto-type jet
packs.
If
you aren't keyed into the Japanese arcade scene, Arcadia
Magazine is like the New York Times of arcade
games-it's THE place to go in Japan for amazingly
in-depth and expert coverage of a large amount of titles
(and no, I don't write for them anymore!). They
also sponsor the awesome Super Battle
Opera tournament, so it's safe to say that
these guys know what's up.
SFIV wasn't really in the running for any Game of
the Year awards in the West, since it's "merely" an
arcade game right now, but in the one place on earth
where the game is in wide distribution, it's blowing
everybody away.
Street
Fighter IV won:
-GAME OF THE
YEAR
-Best
Graphics -Best Production -Best
Character (Ryu)
I'm
not sure a single game has ever been
so dominant.
And just in case you
thought SFIV was only popular with the Arcadia editors,
here is where I tell you it also won the write-in
Reader's Choice voting for best game
of the year. Beastly!
