			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first-child ">Zelda - one of the best game series ever, yet all attempts at something similar on the iPhone have been dissapointing. Could My Little Hero be the game to change this?</p>
<p>The trailer below seems to suggest so:</p>
<p><iframe width="476" height="272" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/h56gUDKKAZE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>It looks incredibly similar to the recent Nintendo DS Zelda games, with a rather less angular feeling to the level layouts. I think it could have done with a bit more colour and texture to the environments, but everything looks cohesive. Hopefully the lack of detail will work ok once I get to play it!</p>
<p>My Little Hero is only 69p so I am going to download it and give it a go. Have you played it yourself?</p>
<p>You can download it here: <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/my-little-hero/id512456155?mt=8&#038;uo=4" target="itunes_store">My Little Hero - NCsoft</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first-child ">Joy of joys - one of my favorite games of all time - Beyond Good and Evil - is getting a sequel. It was <a href="http://www.binaryjoy.co.uk/games/games-news/ubidays-2008-beyond-good-and-evil-2/" title="Beyond Good and Evil 2 Teaser Video">first teased 4 years ago</a> - but some more 'footage' has been leaked. Unfortunately it's just scenery - although there is a glimpse of someone that looks like Jade in one of the shots.</p>
<p>Fingers crossed I get to play it at some stage!</p>

<p>In case you haven't seen it before - there's some gameplay footage here as well. Looks like it combines the best elements of some of my other top games (Mirrors Edge, Prince of Persia and Assassins Creed to name a few).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first-child ">Vapgames has just released a trailer for his upcoming game, Intrusion 2, an action platformer that mixes large doses of Metal Slug with full on physics.</p>
<p>The trailer shows the player in all sorts of situations. Riding a wolf in the snow, falling from collapsing bridges and cliff faces, hiding as a giant robot rips a building from it's foundations (my favorite bit <img src='http://www.binaryjoy.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ), attempting to destroy all manner of huge mechanical enemies, stepping into a controllable mech suit and causing vast amounts of explosions and destruction.</p>
<p>My kind of game then!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first-child ">The original Max Payne - a classic game from 2001 that introduced bullet time to the gaming world - is coming to iOS this April.</p>
<p>I remember playing all the way through Max Payne. The first time I bullet time dived through a doorway, spinning around taking down bad guys as I flew through the air was awesome. And then I did that repeatedly for the rest of the game... but it got broken up with all sorts of other strange elements. Max Payne is a tortured soul - and this was shown nicely in the dream/ flash back sequences. The comic strip cinematics also added a sense of style to the Noir influenced shooter.</p>
<p>No prices have been announced so far, and the game is said to have had improved graphics, and more social elements added - so it will be interesting to see how the very controls focused game will translate to the iPhone and other iOS devices.</p>
<p>Unfortunately there's no videos yet so here's some screenshots to whet your appetite.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p class="first-child ">War raged for over a hundred years until strong, powerful Lords emerged from the fighting to bring a fragile peace to the land. This peace is threatened when one of the Lords, Ataraxis, ruler of the city of Nexus, is taken ill by a deadly curse. A call is sent out, promising rewards beyond measure for anyone who finds a cure.</p>
<p>Four mercenaries, each with their own strengths, weaknesses and motivations answer the call. One uses forbidden spells to rain death on her foes, one has guns and bombs to blast his way through, another has a mighty sword capable of slicing through entire packs of enemies, and one other gains strength from savagely tearing through anything that stands in his way with brutal, bladed fists.</p></blockquote>

<p>Heroes of Ruin is a real time dungeon crawling RPG from Square Enix - best known for the Final Fantasy game series.</p>
<p>Another classic looking RPG coming to the Nintendo platforms. It's interesting to see so many heading Nintendos way recently - in particular those that have been released on the Wii.</p>
<p>Anyway - looks really nice - I'd like to see it in real 3D.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first-child ">As a time strapped individual - I just can't justify sitting down and playing RPG's for hours and hours and hours. So seeing something like Pocket Heroes pop up makes me very happy.</p>
<p>The game is a turn based multiplayer RPG. You get together with friends, and then send moves to each other when you have time. This means that you don't have to play continuously and can fit the game in around the rest of your day to day activities.</p>
<p><iframe width="472" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MVaalhly3pM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Visually it could do with some work. I don't mind the retro look, but it doesn't even have a simple 2 frame walk animation - so it would be nice to see a bit more love put into it. Of course, as it says in the video, it's an early version and maybe these things will be improved in the final build.</p>
<p>Either way - this one is on my radar for checking out in the future.</p>

<p>Apparently there's more to it than that - the game isn't on rails for starters - and there seems to be some sort of magic system - but in general Bladeslinger is a slash 'em up for the iPhone that looks rather tasty.</p>
<p><iframe width="472" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Qhr5vzvbNWE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Originally slated for a release early last year, things seem to have picked up again and I am looking forward to giving it a go. Hopefully it has a bit more depth than Infinity Blade.</p>
