An awesome gameplay screenshot, very cinematic, of The Amazing Spider-Man videogame in action.
The Amazing Spider-Man Videogame has the 89-year-old Stan Lee (YES HE’S THAT OLD!) as a playable character for the first time in a videogame! Only if you pre-order The Amazing Spider-Man! The all-new game developed by veteran Spider-Man developer Beenox (Spider-Man: Edge of Time, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions). It will be released June 26th 2012 on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, 3DS, Wii, DS, Android and iOS.
The Amazing Spider-Man Videogame is releasing to coincide with the film of the same name. The movie hits theaters on July 3, 2012, just in time for the 4th of July American Independence Day celebrations.
Although the game is based on the film, it is only loosely so in most regards, as the game expands on many aspects of the movie with characters from the comicbooks, and the game does not feature the likeness or voice acting from a single one of the The Amazing Spider-Man film’s actors.
Here is a trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man videogame.
The biggest change is a fully open-world, a recreation of New York City, and a fully updated combat system that is similar to the one seen in Batman: Arkham City, featuring free-flowing combos, chains, parry’s, etc. A number of side-missions, minigames, etc. can be found within the open world, which gives players the choice of how they want to tackle the game. One of the coolest additions are full, collectable comicbooks featuring some of the biggest issues and moments from throughout Spidey’s long career! Such as Amazing Fantasy #15, the final 1960s issue which introduced the character Spider-Man to the world. Spider-Man would go on to become one of the most popular characters of all time.
If you pre-order The Amazing Spider-Man on Xbox 360 or PS3 from Amazon.com, you’ll get the very cool bonus of Stan Lee as a playable character! Stan Lee has all of Spider-Man’s moves, and has a side-mission that sees him collecting the missing pages of a comicbook script that flies out the window! The best part is that the 89-year-old Spider-Man creator recorded lots of fun dialogue with him saying some of his infamous catchphrases and repeating some of the words that Spider-Man is known for. You can see Stan Lee himself describe his new playable videogame form in this The Amazing Spider-Man Videogame gameplay video.
Remember Nintendo Revolution? It was the original codename for Wii… no one thought they’d change it.
Will Wii U be the final name of the Nintendo next-generation console that replaces the original Wii? Yes or no?
Many people find the Wii U name to be confusing and a bit odd. In fact, I had a girl laugh at me just this past week when I was telling her all about Nintendo’s new machine. Do you know what she called it? “The Pee-U” I am not making this up. And despite my attempts at not feeling a little bit “hurt” at this brash mocking, she continued to laugh her head off at the name “p-u”.
Suffice it to say, I am now more convinced than ever that Nintendo should change the name. Many people have stated that the name “3DS”, was a mistake for Sony’s next-gen handheld system, because it is too similar to the former system, and parents and those not “in-the-know” get confused about the difference and will buy games without noticing the “3″ in the title. The original DS meanwhile was originally a codename that stood for “Developer’s System” (because the system was easy to develop for and made with giving developers more options than ever in-mind) but sense the acronym dually stood for “Dual Screens” as well, they decided to stick with the name “DS” since it accurately described what the new handheld was (a handheld never meant to originally replace the Game Boy, it was meant to be a “third pillar” and a new line of systems that would continue alongside Game Boy. Everyone but Nintendo new that wouldn’t be the case however :P).
Of course, remember the “Nintendo Revolution” name? Everyone was confident that Nintendo was going to go with that name as the final name for the Wii… but they changed the codename and went with “Wii” instead. And for an entire year all we heard were penis jokes and people remarking “Want to come over and play with me wee” *cue endless giggles*
Yet Nintendo stuck with the name, and now it is an iconic, worldwide, world-known name that cannot be mistaken for anything else and never gets made fun of anymore. For the GameCube, the system was originally called the “Nintendo Dolphin”… a name people loved. That codename was eventually dropped in favor of the even cooler name “GameCube”. I really hope we see a return to a cool name. Although I can live with the Wii U… But it’s such a dorky title…

Videogame consoles are almost owned as much as computers and tablets/mobiles in U.S. homes!
Half of United States households own either a Wii, an Xbox 360, or a PlayStation 3 according to a new Nielson study! These are phenomenal numbers that prove that videogames have finally reached that threshold where it is bonafide mainstream and absolutely normal to own a videogame console.
It also shows that videogame playing is actually ON THE RISE, and not falling by any stretch of the imagination. The actual number of U.S. homes that own a modern, current-generation videogame console (Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii) actually sits at 56% which is OVER half.
Young girls play videogames more commonly now than ever before. As does the whole U.S. population.
Additionally, multiplatform gaming across several consoles is also on the rise, as the study found that 24% play on two or more gaming systems, compared to 17% last year. Videogame consoles have nearly caught up to Tablets and Computers as far as home penetration!
Mobile gaming is also huge these days, and the study found that the sector has given an explosive rise in videogame playing, and adding to the amount of time that people play games (surely socieal networking games like Facebook games also factor heavily into this). Ironically, the older age group of 23-34 year-olds prefer to play mobile games on the Android platform rather than Apple platforms.
Another interesting tidbit is that 65% of gaming consoles are still located in the living room as opposed to bedrooms (mine are in the bedroom…) and that online shopping for videogames has risen dramatically, causing other retail sectors for videogame sales to decline. Additionally, a huge number of people use their videogame consoles to do something other than play games, with 33% using their gaming machine to almost exclusively stream video on the Wii particularly (15% each for Xbox 360 and PS3).
Family’s playing Wii has likely increased household game playing.
Very, very interesting numbers overall. It’s crazy to think that videogames have finally broken the 50% of households barrier, that is a number higher than the amount of US households that own surround sound… And these numbers will only increase as my generation becomes the parental generation, a process that has already started.
Gameplay of Diablo III in action! The long-awaited sequel launches on May 15, 2012 for PC!
What videogame releases of May 2012 release this week? The week of May 14th to May 20th sees some HUGE heavy hitters in the videogame arena.
The biggest release of this week, if not of the month, is most definitely Diablo 3. Diablo 3 is the long-awaited Blizzard-developed sequel to the hit hack-and-slash loot-dropping action RPG series that blew up on the PC and became one of the biggest and most long-played PC videogame series of all time. The original Diablo was released way back in 1996 with its sequel, Diablo 2, hitting over a decade ago in 2000. To put that into perspective, Diablo 1 was released the same year as Super Mario 64 on the N64 and Diablo 2 was released a year BEFORE Final Fantasy X. Old games indeed, but even so people still routinely play and praise them today!
Finally, a modern entry in the series has been released with Diablo 3! This game has been in development for an ETERNITY, first announced way back in 2008. So the game has been in-development for no less than four-years! A true eternity in videogame time. Will the game be worth the wait? We’ll have to wait and see! But already the game sits pretty atop the pre-order charts, so sales for Activision Blizzard are sure to be through the roof!
The Diablo III Collector’s Edition logo. Epic.
Not to be outdone is the long-waited third entry in Rockstar’s Bullet-time action series “Max Payne”, with Max Payne 3. Finally the action hero of last-generation is being restored for modern times. So this is a very exciting release and definitely one of the biggest and most highly-anticipated releases of the year!
Another big release this week is Game of Thrones, a huge, epic western-style RPG published by Atlus Games (Of Japanese RPG fame), and based on the hit TV show of the same name. It’ll be interesting to see how big of game it is, and how well it sells. Making it an RPG in the vein of “The Witcher” or “Skyrim” was a very smart idea… The 3DS is also getting a new title with Mario Tennis Open from Nintendo & Camelot!

Anything you are looking forward to picking up over the weekend?
Here is a Quick Look at Tera Online from Giantbomb.
Search for Poe Ghosts in Zelda: Twilight Princess! 60 total, they only appear at night. Sense as Wolf Link.
I missed some Poes, what are the most missed Poe Souls/Poe Spirits in the game? How do I find missed Poes? All very good questions, and all are questions I was asking myself.
Searching for the ghosts or “Poe Spirits” in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is one HELL of an ordeal. There are 60 Poe Souls to find total, and you can only search for them at night. Sadly, unlike in Ocarina of Time (and a huge oversight in my opinion) there is NO WAY to command the Sun to go down and make time into night in Twilight Princess… and (you guessed it), Poes can ONLY BE FOUND at night. Which means if it’s daytime or night is just about to end, you gotta wait a whole real-world 10 minutes or so for time to pass and turn into night. HELLA ANNOYING. In order to hunt a Poe you must turn into Wolf Link and use your Sense (Pressing Right or Left on the DPad) in order to see the Poe and target it. Hit it twice and you’ll be given the option to dive in and rip it’s heart out! AWESOME.
These Poes are very deviously hidden and can be hidden literally ANYWHERE. That includes inside of dungeons, inside of buildings, outside of buildings in the field, on top of structures, within challenge rooms, inside caves, deep inside dungeons and everywhere else. A ton of them will be found without even looking, and five of them you get automatically. Adding insult to injury, the game will NOT tell you which Poes you have missed, which Poes you haven’t found, or where to locate them. There is NO Poe Chart… this is maddening because no two people will find the exact same Poes in the same order, making it hard to follow a guide and find the ones you missed. Unless you have a great memory and a good description of the Poe being shown and are completely sure you got it.
This means that you may have to retrace your steps through all SIXTY freakin’ Poe locations in the game to find say, one, three, or eight that you missed. For me it was 9, as I found 51 by the end of the game on my own without using a guide…. Leaving NINE left to find.
So what are the Poes you likely missed? Here are the ones I MISSED. Hopefully this will help some other peeps out there.

DESERT!
There are TONS of Poes to find in the desert, and believe it or not this is where I found THREE whole Poes that I had missed. One of them is located behind from where you warp to at the Gerudo Mesa location. Keep going until you find a circle of bones and that’s where the Poe will be hiding. A second one is located on the narrow part of the map that divides the bottom half from the Arbiter’s ground/enemy fortress of the top half. The path branches as you are climbing up and goes left or right, where you’ll find some rocks and spinning enemies. Look around here for a Poe you likely didn’t get. The last one I didn’t find is found within the Goblin fortress before the Arbiter’s grounds. Head into an enclosed structure and you’ll see the Poe in there!
There are a lot of other Poes to find in this Desert, for example near where the Goblin place with the fences and the boars you need to ride is, you’ll find a dead tree that you can Clawshot to an upper area. There will be a Poe here. However once you kill it, use your Sense and dig in the soft soil, and you’ll find yourself in an underground area with lots of rocks and two more Poes! You can break the rocks by using your Ball & Chain Weapon or use Bombs. I already got all three of these in my game however. :)
GRAVEYARD!
This Poe Soul would be really tough to find if you didn’t happen to do exactly what you need to do the few times you are in the Graveyard to make this Poe appear. If this is a Poe you missed, then it’s virtually impossible to find on your own, as few people are going to think to recheck the Graveyard and push a grave… it’s more likely you may have thought of pushing a grave to make a Poe appear when you were first exploring the Graveyard in Kakariko however. As it makes sense if you think about it. But the fact that the Poe only appears from ONE grave makes it less likely to be found. I think even I had pushed a few graves, but only a few, thus I didn’t find this one. To get this Poe, go into the Graveyard located at Kakariko Village, and push the first gravestone you see on your left from the entrance. Out a Poe will pop! Wow. I never would’ve found this one. :/
SNOWPEAK!
Okay, you are probably like me, and you remember getting at least one Poe in Snowpeak. As such, I went here to check anyway, confident that I had gotten the Poes I missed, if I did miss any. I balked at this, cause I SWORE I got one… well apparently there are two, because near the very top of Snowpeak (after you go up the collapsed avalanche and up a few platforms) I found a Poe by the tree that was ALIVE. I swear I remember combing through Snowpeak at night searching for Poes. And at first I thought I just saw the glowing white wolves in the distance and that I was mistaken, that there WASN’T actually a Poe up there. How wrong I was. I’m really glad I checked. And that’s the moral of the Poe story. Maybe I didn’t save when I got it last time? Even if you are positive you got the Poe, search again. Just to be sure. So if you haven’t searched Snowpeak, DO IT. There’s lots of Poes here.
Additionally, there are several other Poe Ghosts in Snowpeak and in the Snowpeak Ruins dungeon that you probably missed. The most common and easily missible one that virtually NO ONE will find (and another I missed), is located at the foot of the race with Yeta. Race him and purposefully win or lose. You will then be at the proper section to get this Poe. Turn around from the Yeti’s and head backwards towards the race track, you’ll immediately sink into the snow a bit and have difficulty walking. Keep trucking for a bit through the snow (you can’t turn into a Wolf because the Yeti’ will see you) until you get to a mountain where you can see that a narrow strip of snow-covered land you can walk on swirls around it. This is where you need to head. Follow that path around the mountain until you make it to the top! If you had a sharp eye, you would’ve noticed that you can see the top of this mountain as you are racing towards the finish line during the Yeti race. At the top lies this hard-to-find POE! Remember that it must be NIGHT to find Poes.
The other Poe you may have missed from here is located in the Snowpeak Ruins dungeon. Go into the ruins and you’ll notice Suits of Armor that line the entrance. Bust them up using your Ball & Chain Weapon. Hit them once and they’ll collapse, hit them again and they’ll poof. Inside one you’ll find a Poe. Another Poe is impossible to miss, hovering near the Suits of Armor in the middle of the entrance hall (in between the pictures you slide down or around there). That one you probably found. There’s another located in the dungeon as well. Select your map and look at the 2nd floor. There are two iced over rooms, one on the bottom right and one on the bottom left. Head to the one on the bottom left. If you are on the right side, as you are going down the path that swirls (and leads back to floor one), you should have opened a pathway that leads straight across by pushing the blocks if you completed this dungeon, allowing you to easily go from the right side to the left, where you need to be. Once you get into the proper room, use your Ball & Chain to break the wall of ice and you’ll see a stone wall alcove that looks like a well. The Poe should be in here if you didn’t get him already while making your way through the Dungeon.
– I’ll add to this list as I go through to find the rest of the Poes I missed, but these videos shows you where all the Poe Locations are! –

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess – All Poe Locations Part 2
The beautiful world of Hyrule as depicted in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
I had taken a long hiatus from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess only to just recently pick it up again. I originally started playing the game before the release of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword… so it’s been over half a year. Skyward Sword came out in November of last year, so I think I started playing Twilight Princess in like October of 2011…
After spending over 100 hours in the game, and getting extremely, extremely close to the end, I ended up getting sidetracked and never returned! Although I recall how far I had gotten in the game….
*MAJOR AND MINOR SPOILERS for anyone who hasn’t played it yet. Read at your own risk!*
I remember how extremely tough the Snowpeak dungeon was where you race the polar bear down the mountain and then enter his fortress like residence. I became extremely annoyed too when I could not pass the section with the sliding ice enemies…. somehow I had forgotten to try simply swinging my sword at them! I kept trying to make it past them by dodging…
All I know for sure is that I was extremely close to the end of the game… This was after I had collected the second-to-last piece of the *SPOILER ALERT* Mirror Shard *END SPOILER* and I had entered the *SPOILER ALERT* City in the Sky *END SPOILER* … For some reason though, being the absolute uber-completionist I am, I went back into the overworld to make sure I had done EVERYTHING. The only thing I had not done is a lot of Fishing… I had collected all the Bugs, found all of the Heart Pieces up to that point, paid off the debts at Malo Mart and unlocked the *SPOILER ALERT* Magical Armor *END SPOILER*, found every single Poe I could think of, learned all of the new Skills, and found every Treasure Chest in every dungeon. I briefly flirted with trying to complete the Fishing minigame, but wisely gave it up.
....Midna is your cute little nude demonic imp-girl sidekick.... somehow it works without being obscene. :P
Sadly though, it was around then after messing with the stupid fishing that I got sidetracked and didn’t play for two weeks. Those two weeks turned to three and three turned into a month and a month turned into months…. NOOOOOO. I was so close… yet so very far…. to completing it.
Well, after pumping over 100 hours into Link’s debut Wii adventure from 2006 (also released sans-motion controls in a hard-to-find GameCube version), I could NOT afford to allow myself to leave it unfinished. So the other day I popped the game in after months of not playing it and decided to delve back into the Hyrulian fields of Twilight. Read the rest of this entry »
