According to the 2K Games Blog, the publisher will be livestreaming all day tomorrow starting at 10am PST/1pm EST from the Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, Washington. The blog post promises “something big” will happen at the 2K Games Booth at PAX, regardless if you are there in person or at home in your underwear.
So what’s all the fuss about? We obviously have no idea what’s going to be announced, do you?
Oh stop it, now you’re just making shit up. According to unverified sources and Paul the Octopus, the rumored Gearbox Software developed Duke Nukem Forever will be playable on the show floor for those attending the Penny Arcade Expo.
All signs are pointing to a Duke Nukem Forever reveal at Gearbox’s panel on Sunday, September 5 at 3pm PST/5pm EST and an image from George Broussard’s Twitter certainly sets us up for what is sure to be a colossal clusterfuck of awesome.
Trendy Entertainment has announced Dungeon Defenders, a hybrid of role playing, tower defense, and third person action, set to release this fall.
Dungeon Defenders supports online and offline co-op for four players and features four playable character classes, fifteen arenas, and numerous gameplay modes. Playstation 3 owners will get the advantage of Playstation Move support and stereoscopic 3D.
Development director, Jeremy Stieglitz, describes the game, ““There is meaty character leveling and customization, awesome loot drops and plenty of team-oriented defensive strategy to manage, but then you have this action-packed wave-based standoff that gets continually more intense. It’s as deep as it is instantly fun.”
Check out the trailer below. Look forward to this one releasing on XBLA, PC, and PSN pretty soon. … Continue Reading
Square-Enix has stated that it currently has no plans on bringing the localized version of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep to the PSP Go anytime soon. Set to release on September 7, the publisher has forgone a digital release on the platform.
It is quite startling with the continuing rise of the downloadable medium and high-profile PSP games matching the day-one retail release date on the Playstation Network that a move like this would be taken. Even considering that a variety of Square-Enix published titles, e.g. Dissidia: Final Fantasy, have been released digitially. Is the publisher now backpedaling on their digital distribution efforts?

Square-Enix has released the Tokyo Game Show trailer for Final Fantasy XIV and finalized date and time for the open beta. Check out the excellent trailer below for Nobuo Uematsu composed music coupled with real-time gameplay and CGI cutscenes.
According to RPGSite, the open beta begins September 1, servers will go live on the US West Coast at 7pm. Final Fantasy XIV will make its PC debut at the end of September, players who reserved the Collectors Edition will be provided early access to the game on September 22.
Those waiting for the Playstation 3 version will have to wait a bit longer, March 2011, as the developer cited the delay due to memory issues. While a Xbox 360 version is not confirmed, the publisher is currently in active talks about bringing it to the Microsoft console.
Those who are attending PAX Prime are in for a real treat. Gearbox Software is hosting a panel which promises the reveal of “never before seen footage of upcoming releases.”
The panel description will show “juicy exclusives, surprising disclosures, unbelievable scoops and behind the scenes access on what Gearbox is up to”. These could possibly be the fourth DLC for Borderlands, Alien: Colonial Marines, or the three mystery games on the company website.
One of those games may quite possibly be Duke Nukem Forever, which was last heard on the vine that it was in development at Gearbox Software – even more strange that CEO Randy Pitchford has refused to confirm or deny the rumors. We’ll have to wait until PAX to see if this is true. Although one thing is for certain…you can always bet on Duke.
The panel runs Sunday, September 5th at 3pm PST/5pm EST. PAX Prime goes from September 3-5 in Seattle, Washington.
