[Review] Puzzle Chronicles تقرير لعبة بزل كرونكلز

Puzzle RPG seems to be the new trend nowadays on handheld gaming devices, but when we saw a puzzle RPG published by Konami and coming from the puzzle RPG creators, we were thrilled to load it up and give it a try.

Toy Story 3: The Video Game announced إعلان العمل على لعبة توي ستوري الثالثة

Here’s the low down before the Press Release which is after the jump. The game is being developed by Avalanche Software for all current-gen platforms including handhelds, and another game just for mobile phones later on. There will also be an iphone app which ties-in to the movie.

The game has two separate modes: the Story Mode will have open-world gameplay and the Toy Box mode lets users create their own adventures. The sandbox environment for the Story Mode makes perfect sense, while the Toy Box mode is yet to be revealed in much detail, although we think it involves user generated levels. The game’s out on June 15th; we’ll have more info as the updates roll in.

Ubisoft to launch a new Driver game يوبيسوفت ستطلق لعبة درايفر جديدة

Ubisoft has announced many great new titles in its Q3 fiscal year report, like Assassin’s Creed 3 coming out this fall, staring Ezio as he fights the Templars in Rome this time. AC3 will feature a new innovative assassination multiplayer mode, but we will wait to get more details about that.

Most important thing is that Ubisoft will stick to regularly launching a new release of its major franchises every year, without worrying about “franchise fatigue”! Finally, AC2 managed to sell 8 million copies worldwide, simultaneously boosting the sales of the first Assassin’s Creed.
