This is the funniest thread of the month. Those boxarts have made me laugh more than anything else so far.

 

[thetrin]

That looks fucking awesome. What is in the CE?

I've never heard of 90% of these tv shows being turned into games. Were they all created in the last 3 years or something?

 

[Glass Brain]

:lol WHY is Howie Mandell's head bigger than it should be?

 

[Jade Knight 08]

Isn't Dragon Quest IV for DS coming out this month for US? And anyone know the retail price for that game in stores?

 

[I AM JOHN!]

What do you do in this game?

 

[twinturbo2]

I can tell you that in the time I spent with the PS2 version, I couldn't find any sign of V Special. It's quite possible, however, that that version was early and didn't have it integrated in yet.

I'm kinda crossing my fingers on that one. It's not a deal breaker by any means, but I'd love to have it on the disc. Can you check with SNKP on this?

 

[Jiguryo]

What do you do in this game?

You duel. Wielding lightsabers. Nifty, huh?

 

[Struct09]

Preparing you for his Mii

When you checked out the PS2 version did any of the other games have blood in them?
Cause I mean from the time I've spent on Special and watching the fatalities on youtube it's really nothing new for the SS series. In fact many of them look rather silly(I mean come on when you slice someone in half do you really expect the inside of their torso to be completely black?)

For reference:

Nakoruku's art looks hideous in this game btw.

 

[Kagari]

I like it, even if it is a bit busy.

yup, on the 16th. $40.

Killthee posted a bigger one in the previous months thread.

 

[McBacon]

Whats this?

Edit: Unsolved Crimes is an upcoming game for Nintendo DS, published by Empire Interactive.

The game is set in New York City. The main character is a rookie detective from the homicide division. There are eight cases in the game, all revolving around a series of kidnappings and the disappearance of a character named Betsy Blake.

There will be use of the Nintendo DS touch screen to trace memos, marks and routes on certain items. There are also car chases and shootouts involved, as well as a quiz.

 

[Vorador]

Argh, more HORRIBLE Imaginez games.

Populous DS? wat? That went completely under my radar. Guess i have another game to look forward to, i hope it's better than the Settlers II port.

 

[twinturbo2]

This one has '94-'98, right?

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

is that Rihanna in the Singstar Pop vol. 2 boxart? Can't really tell, her forehead is covering half of my screen

 

[Infernal Monkey]

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Wat.

 

[Ike]

When was this announced? And why did I not know about it?

 

[MattPeters]

What immediatly popped into my head when I saw that.

 

[perfectchaos007]

:lol

Pinch the neck

 

[radios shipping overview]

[populous]

When was this announced? And why did I not know about it?

It was announced for US release at E3. The Japanese release was announced a while back. You didn't hear about it because...nobody cared, honestly.

 

[Rawkus]

 

[Fady K]

WHAT ARE ALL THESE DS GAMES??? THEY HURT ME AS A DS OWNER!

Unsolved Crimes looks interesting!

Resistance 2 looks goood =D

 

[Hero of Legend]

Found at Kirby's official website www.kirbykirbykirby.com . Is this actually final? Because the old red Nintendo logo is on it, strange. I hope the box does indeed have the Touch Generations logo on it!

Yes sir, we have another USC box overhaul. :/ But this one's nice, it's just lacking feathers...

 

[Infernal Monkey]

 

[twinturbo2]

They had to make a literal bullet point about bullet cam? :lol

I'll stick to Big Buck Hunter Pro, thanks...

 

[Death_Born]

Holy @#$#@! Math Blaster is anime now!?!

Weird, I don't know why they would put the Touch Generations logo in it.

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

I like it, even if it is a bit busy.

certainly more than the towns you'll explore

 

[Jammy]

The Animal Crossing: City Folk one looks good, but I also wonder why there's no Pay and Play logo...

And I hate... HATE the new PS3 boxarts with the "Only on PlayStation. PSN Network" banner across the top. I wonder what system it's for...

I hate them too. Whoever made that design choice needs to be fired.

 

[Ether_Snake]

I guess this is the final one:

Wonder if it is a Playstation game

That sackboy is scary, the threads are too big.

 

[DuckRacer]

But no Pay & Play... hrm...

I'm pretty sure that free DLC doesn't require the "Pay and Play" logo.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

I'm pretty sure that free DLC doesn't require the "Pay and Play" logo.

Still, the option for paid DLC would be nice- would show a real commitment.

 

[dragonlife]

O_O is right!!!!! O_O!

Huh? Why that reaction?

 

[JPBrowncoat]

Still, the option for paid DLC would be nice- would show a real commitment.

Yeah but I think there was an interview with a guy working on the game saying they wanted everything to be free to download. He also said you wouldn't be downloading things that are already on the disc.

Yeah what I got from that was that "DLC" would be like free patterns for things. :/

Additional fossils/clothing types/etc. would be nice.

KIRBYBOXART

FWIW the latest Gamestop mailing has the same cover minus the Touch Generations logo and the Nintendo symbol is white on the cover.

They had to make a literal bullet point about bullet cam?

I'll stick to Big Buck Hunter Pro, thanks...

What the Wii really needs is a port of one of those deer hunting games you see at the bar. You know the ones with the bright orange shotguns? Those games are actually pretty entertaining and as about as casual as you can get.

 

[Jswanko]

What did you do to my Math Blaster!!!??

 

[I AM JOHN!]

Good Lord, that Tecmo Bowl Kickoff boxart is the most hopelessly boring thing I've ever seen.

Ah well, so long as I can still get my "FACE DOWN! HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT," it's all good in the hood.

 

[Htown]

Oh my

okay so

do you actually use the ds microphone to whisper at dogs?

 

[bryehn]

This boxart encompasses many things wrong with our society.

 

[Wilsongt]

Eh...eh...eh... what?

 

[anotheriori]

EWWW!

is it supposed to be this (orochi collection)?

or this (98 ultimate match)?

 

[NameGenerated]

wait what? september?

Yep......September

Spoiler

is when this box art was released

 

[KevinCow]

Wow. If this is real, it is, hands down, the absolute laziest boxart I have ever seen. Even for licensed shovelware.

 

[Baconbitz]

Is that Link on the SC boxart? If so thats a big mistake.

 

[lyre]

Raphael.

 

[twinturbo2]

Does the PS2 version of Soul Calibur II run well on the PS3?
