If you preordered Hitman: Absolution, awesome, you will have got this game too! A nice little game to play to tide you over till the full game is released in November. This video is just a quicklook into the game.

[Updated] Final Fantasy Versus Finally Confirmed Dead?

Originally intended to be a group of games involving the games we now know as Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Type-0, Final Fantasy Versus has now rumoured to be finally canned.

Many fans will have already given up on the title after numerous no-shows at big industry events and a whole six years since it was announced and all we have is a trailer, some gameplay and some screenshots. You'd think after six years there would be at least a demo of sorts.

Nowadays Square Enix are always the butt of jokes about long development cycles and sub-par RPG games. Seems like we're relying on their Eidos side to provide the goods - probably the best investment Square Enix have made in a long time: looking forward to Hitman Absolution and the new Tomb Raider origins game.

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Demo (3DS)

We are blessed to have two 3DS demos available at the same time, oh you spoil us, Square Enix. The first of which is...


Title: Theatrhythm Final Fantasy
Platform: 3DS
Release Date: 3rd July 2012 (US), 6th July 2012 (EU)


It's been over 25 years of Final Fantasy and so to celebrate we have our very own rhythm game dedicated to the long-running series: THEATRHYTHM FINAL FANTASY.



The premise is simple you take 4 heroes from the Final Fantasy world and you guide them on a journey through the music of the series. The gameplay is as you'd expect from a touch-style rhythm game, you tap, slide, flick you way along with the music. The added bonus is that while you're doing all this you are either treated to a standard music video (cutscenes taken straight from the games - nostalgia factor 100) or your group of 4 intrepid heroes will battle an enemy of roam the wilderness.
