Here Is What GTA V Could Look Like On Super Nintendo

GTA V retro

YouTube’s “machinimarespawn” has shared an amazing video, showcasing what GTA V could look like on 16bit systems such as Super Nintendo or Genesis. And to be honest, the retro guy inside me tells me that he’d seriously want to play such a game. Perhaps it’s the nostalgia speaking, but a GTA title – with these retro visuals – feels like a perfect match for iOS or Android devices. Ah well, that won’t be happening anytime soon, so let’s all enjoy the video! Continue reading Here Is What GTA V Could Look Like On Super Nintendo

Ubisoft Confirms That Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag PC Will Be Based On The Next-Gen Version

Assassins Creed IV Black Flag

A lot of PC gamers got confused with Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. Would the PC version be based on the next-gen or on the current-gen one? Would Ubisoft pull a Fifa 14 on us or would the French studio keep delivering polished PC titles (after all, Spliner Cell: Blacklist got an awesome PC version). Thankfully, Ubisoft’s Montreal Community Developer, Gabriel Graziani, confirmed yesterday that our platform will get the next-gen version, and explained the reasons behind the game’s delay. Continue reading Ubisoft Confirms That Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag PC Will Be Based On The Next-Gen Version

Daigo ‘The Beast’ Umehara Beats Infiltration & Xian In Recent Events (EVO 2012 & 2013 Champions)

Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition

Fact: We are huge fans of Daigo Umehara (we love Tokido and Infiltration, but Daigo has a special place in our hearts). Fact: We were amazed by Infiltration’s performance at both EVO 2012 and Street Fighter 25th Anniversary tournaments. Fact: We were disappointed with Daigo’s performance at EVO 2013 (as he was making the same mistakes over and over again). Fact: During PAX Prime’s and TGS’ SSF4: AE events (hosted by Mad Catz), Daigo beat both Infiltration and Xian. Now some may say that those events were not as big as EVO, but what’s important here is that Daigo has come back from the dead. Not only that, but EVO 2014 will be more interesting than ever (and we are curious to see what Infiltration and Xian will come up with to defeat Daigo). Daigo has also beaten Justin Wong, and you can find all the aforementioned matches below. Enjoy! Continue reading Daigo ‘The Beast’ Umehara Beats Infiltration & Xian In Recent Events (EVO 2012 & 2013 Champions)
