E3 Roundup: Holiday Shopping List Part 3
Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time
Not really a huge amount to say about this that isn’t too obvious. It continues from Tools of Destruction and Quest for Booty but you don’t need to have played either of those. It includes new weapons, new gadgets and new enemies. One of the new gadgets is a pair of rocket boots that basically allow you to boost round the levels quickly so this should mean larger levels to mess about in. Also sniper rifle.
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2
More MUA goodness, fighting and beating up dudes as various Marvel characters. There seems to be a fair number of people that you would guess would be there as well as some of the less well known characters like Deadpool (if you didn’t know who that is don’t worry neither did I until recently). It seems to have Iron Man still in it so I’m happy.
PixelJunk Shooter
The next entry into the PixelJunk franchise is something of a dual stick shooter, although I’m guessing the control scheme here. You fly around and it’s your job to save a couple of stranded people in the world before moving onto the next. The interesting part is the fluid mechanics that are in the game, which involves lava and water, one of which kills you the other makes the other safe for your ship, take a guess as to which is which. Overall it looks kind of cool, and I want to see more of it. No word on pricing but I would expect something in the $10-15 range.
Could not be more exited for MUA2, I absolutely love Deadpool, he was great in the last game, and now he’s a boss as well as a playable =)
The lava/water stuff in PixelJunk looked very nice, kinda wish I could get it…
