Capcom Digs Deep In Their Bag of Holding, Pulls Out Two Critical Hits

June 18th, 2013 No comments

D_D_3

"Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom" and its sequel "Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara" emerge from the mist today for your WiiU, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Both of the classic arcade titles have been fully updated with HD graphics and brand new features. As with many of the other arcade revamps from Iron Galaxy, a vault has been added providing extra challenges awarding skillful players with bonuses such as artwork. You can also customize your experience with a virtual dip switch to alter the behavior of the games, making them harder -- or my case much, much eaiser. These old arcade games were brutal!

Furthermore, players will have a Character Visualizer that tallies various data points to compare against friends. So that's pretty neat.

From the release:

Capcom worked closely with Wizards of the Coast to bring these beloved games back for all the D&D® fans on today’s consoles. Developed by Iron Galaxy, Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara brings together two arcade classics – Dungeons & Dragons®: Tower of Doom™ and its sequel Dungeons & Dragons®: Shadow over Mystara™ – fully updated with HD graphics and a wealth of additional features. The highly requested games had previously only been available in arcades in the west and can now be enjoyed by a wider gaming audience.

"Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara" will be priced at $14.99 for PS3 and Wii U and 1200 for Xbox 360.

Seen@E3: Capcom’s DuckTales singing booth

June 14th, 2013 No comments

Capcom sure seems to enjoy when people sing the DuckTales theme song, as its E3 section features an enclosed glass booth for that sole purpose.

We took a quick video when passing by of one gentleman exercising his vocal chords to the enjoyment of viewers behind him. Listen closely for the "woo-oo" part of the song; he totally nailed it.

Dead Rising 3 adds Nightmare mode for die-hard Dead Rising traditionalists

June 11th, 2013 No comments

Traversing Dead Rising 3's reportedly massive open world won't be a race against the clock, or an all-out search for a bathroom like previous entries in the series - that is, unless you want it to be. The game's new direction, as well as its opt-in old direction, was explained to us by Capcom during a closed-door demonstration of the game at E3.

"We're trying to have our cake and eat it too, in terms of how the game world works," a Capcom representative told us during the demonstration. "In previous Dead Rising games, time was ticking. You have to rush through the game, you don't get a chance to explore, you don't get a chance to experiment, you can only save in certain locations ... and some people loved that, but some people hated it and it totally turned them off from Dead Rising."

To wit, Capcom's goal has been to make zombies the main threat in the game, rather than time pressure, and its doing so by removing the timer and adding auto-saves. The company does seem aware, however, that this is against the grain of the series' history, and as such a "Nightmare" mode will be available for those that want something a little more classic.

"No auto-saves; clock is ticking; we'll fail your ass if you don't make it to the next mission in time. It works just like old Dead Risings - so if you're a Dead Rising fan and you want a sadistic experience, you can totally do that."
