Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance - TGS 2011 Trailer

/

Neku in KH Ok, I love the Kingdom Hearts games even though Square Enix has dragged it on this long but when they announced Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance for the 3DS I had no interest in playing this. But after seeing a certain character in this new trailer from this year's Tokyo Game Show, I squealed like a school girl.

Neku Sakuraba from The World Ends With You (すばらしきこのせかい Subarashiki Kono Sekai / It's a Wonderful World) makes an appearance in KH 3D. The World Ends With You was a DS game made by the Kingdom Hearts team back in 2008 and was a game that I was very fond of and enjoyed and seeing the main character from that game in this new Kingdom Hearts in full 3D got my hype meter maxed out. Yet another reason for me to save up for a 3DS.

 

Street Fighter x Tekken TGS Tekken Character Teaser

Here's the other Street Fighter x Tekken Tokyo Game Show character teaser, this time for the Tekken side.

Now this is an easy one, the white glove with the red stripes and the frilly shirt gives it away. It's Emilie de Rochefort aka Lili, that rich little blonde girl who kicks total ass. I can't wait to see what moves she's got over on the Capcom fighting game engine side of things.

Asura's Wrath

/

Capcom and CyberConnect2 are currently working on a new action game called Asura's Wrath. You take control of Asura, a demigod, to seek vengeance against the Seven Deities who have betrayed you and has taken your daughter. Using your unworldly powers, you must face off against numerous enemies and giant bosses to achieve your goals.

Asura's Wrath was announced during last year's Tokyo Game Show (2010). The game looks great, CyberConnect2 has impressed me time and time again with their cinematic  approach to gameplay. I am also a fan of the art style.

According to the game's producer Kasuhiro Tsuyachiya,

"Asura's Wrath takes elements from Asian mythology and blends them with science fiction."

I guess my only nitpick from the videos of the game that are out so far is that the camera is a tad bit too low. I know this is for cinematic purposes but it might hinder your perspective of the battle scene and with the game looking like everything is jacked up on cocaine, that might be a problem.

The game is going to be released in Japan and North America on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. As of right now, there is no solid release date but the game is expected to be out in 2012.
