With Street Fighter IV & King of Fighters XII rejuvenating the fighting genre, it was time for the Tekken series to step into the ring and show other fighting games how it’s done.

We as humans have always had a fascination with the undead. The undead have been discussed in books, danced in music videos, and murdered in video games on a regular basis. In Tecmo’s Undead Knights, the undead take center stage. This time, one of the main focuses is to create undead minions from sacrificing your enemies during battle. Can raising the undead to fight for you really be that fun?

Lego Indiana Jones 2 has rolled up crap too!
Last week’s gaming convention in Cologne, Germany was called GamesCom. What did we get from the trip? How about the runs and these 4 screenshots of Lego Indy 2.

A recent video uploaded onto YouTube has raised concern on video games and those addicted to them. YouTube user lukemorse1 recorded a video informing people that because of his addiction to gaming, his wife and son have left him.
According to lukemorse1’s YouTube channel profile, his collection seemed very complete ranging from older, classic consoles such as the Atari 2600, all the way up to the current generation. He also uploaded gameplay footage of games running on their original systems, as well as life in Japan.
In his video, he claims the reason for his wife and son leaving him was due to the fact that he grossly neglected them while he spent his time with his hobby. He also states the reason for him making his final video was to teach those of us who might be following his track to learn from his mistakes. Time management is key when it comes to video games. I personally would love to play video games all day and night, but I have other priorities that I know need to be taken care of before I can enjoy myself.
We here at PerezStart wish nothing but the best to lukemorse1. We also would like to acknowledge him for teaching the gaming community a valuable lesson: “People will always be around. Make sure you put a lot more priority on people than you do things, because in the end… I mean.. what do you have? A bunch of stuff that doesn’t really mean anything.”
Back in February, Sony said they would be making an Assassin’s Creed PSP bundle available later this year. It looks like the details for the PSP pack finally emerged today. Here’s what the bundle comes with:
With the PSPgo coming out around the same time, I’m curious to see how well this pack does against simply buying a PSPgo and Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines separately.
Make sure to check out some screens and a video of Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines after the break.
Harmonix is a developer that has been working on music games since the early 2000s. Titles like Frequency and Amplitude weren’t as widely known as most other PS2 titles, but they paved the way for Harmonix’s more successful later titles which include the original Guitar Hero I & II, Rock Band, and their upcoming The Beatles: Rock Band.
Rock Band Unplugged is Harmonix’s fray into the handheld gaming market. The art style, graphics, and tunes are reminiscent of a full fledged Rock Band game, but the concern of most gamers were how the controls would work on the PSP. Do music-based games only succeed if you have a plastic guitar in your hand, or could they possibly work with a more traditional control scheme?
Have you ever wished you could pull out your PSP (or soon, PSPgo) and have a number of classic Capcom arcade titles right there without going through the headache of having to modify it in anyway? Starting tomorrow, you can get your Capcom arcade classic fix when Capcom Classic Collection is released on the Playstation Network. The Capcom Classic Collection has a a pretty fair number of good Capcom titles, including Final Fight, Bionic Commando, and Street Fighter (yes, the original!). The title will be made available tomorrow and will be playable on the PSP.
Additionally, Capcom also announced classic PSone titles will be making their way to the PSN. Which titles you may ask? Well, hit the jump and your question will be answered. (hint: a Resident Evil game is one of them)
