psp demos - The ScummVM Team have released

we're not really crazy about the idea of total sensory immersion, you know? Nevertheless, a team of engineers at Birmingham University are working on a device that exposes gamers to context-sensitive scents during their gaming sessions. Thank goodness this thing wasn't around when Conker's Bad Fur Day pooed up our N64s.



ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!



Tir Na Nog is an open world orthodox RPG that contains all the classic elements such as swordsman, princesses and elves. This is a world that you can shape with your bare hands.



Depending on which path you choose to walk, the system generates story events for you as you progress.

 








The ScummVM Team have released a new version of scummvm, heres the details:



It was not that long since our previous release, and now here is a new bugfix release hot off the press!



The list of fixed bugs is quite long, and you could read all of it in the release notes, but here is a summary for those of you who are too lazy to follow the links and eager to play the games better.



SAGA: Inherit the Earth is completable again; AGOS, Groovie, Sword2: fixed many sound-related issues,psp demos; Parallaction: fixed a bug in one of the puzzles,psp games; squashed a number of bugs in the GUI. Also iPhone, Symbian, WinCE ports are much improved and NDS and PS2 ports are back again since 0.11.0.

Listen, we're all for new and exciting video game peripherals which lend themselves to sensory immersion, but -- well,psp games download, we're not really crazy about the idea of total sensory immersion, you know? Nevertheless, a team of engineers at Birmingham University are working on a device that exposes gamers to context-sensitive scents during their gaming sessions.

BioWare take their Star Wars role-playing seriously. So seriously that the developers are shutting down talk on Old Republic's message boards about homosexuality, because it's a term that does "not exist in Star Wars".









First up is a PSN-exclusive game to be announced at Gamescom in Cologne this year. CEO Ilari Kuittinen told Gamasutra that the exclusive went to Sony to continue the team's "good relationship" with the company. The second title is the studio's first multiplatform game for a "leading publisher." ",psp games;We haven't done this kind of a game genre before," said Kuittinen.



The device, which uses a system of scented paraffin waxes and fans to simulate in-game smells, was partially funded by the Ministry of Defense for use in military training simulators, a fact that makes us equal parts uncomfortable and disappointed. Give us scented Cooking Mama over scented Call of Duty: World at War any day of the week.

According to a report by Variety's usually reliable Cut-Scene blog, the next Transformers game will now be handled by Bourne Identity developer High Moon, while Spider-Man goes to Prototype developer Radical.



The latter's inheritance of Spidey is a no-brainer considering its history of developing open-world games (and they can basically get away with re-skinning Prototype). But Bourne is a bit more of an interesting choice.

To add even more Lego flavor to the mix, the game will feature challenges that allow you to "destroy a giant robot, summon a storm,psp games download, and demolish a skyscraper." One important bullet-point glaringly missing from all news on the game (and its Beatles-themed brethren, for that matter) is the ability to export the songs into Rock Band 2, a la Rock Band 1's tracks. We've put in a note to publisher MTV Games for clarification on this and will keep you updated if and when we hear more info.






Codemasters won't be releasing its Formula 1 game for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC until 2010, with the Wii and PSP versions hitting first later this year.



"The scale of development that was required for the next-gen projects, especially with something like Formula 1, to it do it on such a massive high def scale requires a lot more development time than less powerful platforms like the PSP and Wii," brand manager Paul Walters told IGN.



"Codemasters has a great heritage when it comes to racing games and their reputation is second to none," said F1's ringmaster Bernie Ecclestone in an official announcement. ",psp game;We're working very closely together on the upcoming Formula One titles and are very impressed with what we have seen."



And good for them! While some dismiss this kind of business as childish - purile, even - we don't. Bring it on! The shittier the shit-talking the better, as this industry would be a boring place without it.



Which brings us to an interview on Gamasutra, with Sony's Peter Dille, who recycles a Jack Tretton quote by saying:



Yeah, I don't want to steal [CEO] Jack [Tretton]'s quote, but he's fond of saying: "Microsoft owns the office,psp demos; Sony owns the living room; and Wii owns the closet." And that's an aggressive, probably quotable line.

free psp games Details build on Lego Rock Band, 'rock challenges' not for squares

Though we've known about Lego Rock Band -- more or less, that is -- since early this year, an Xbox.com listing for the game has revealed a few more tidbits to satiate our non-stop hunger for more info on the title. For starters, the game's progression has been revealed as incorporating the Lego theme with collectible Lego pieces that will allow you to, "build cooler vehicles and move to new venues." Furthermore, an extra easy (totally for babies) difficult setting has been added to the game for the ... ahem ... less than face-meltingly-advanced Rock Band-ers in our lives.

But the point he's trying to make is something that we find backed up in a lot of our research and focus groups: that people who are playing the Wii bring it out when friends come over and then put it back away — that the console that stays connected to the TV is a different system.



You're damn right it's quotable. Probably grossly inaccurate, too, but then, that's not the point of these statements, is it?

Both the Wii and PS3 were released in November 2006, so the most recent tie ratio figures show each system&rsquo,psp demos;s performance after 29 months at retail. In examining the Xbox 360’s tie ratio after the same 29-month period, Microsoft’s box shows itself to have a significantly more impressive balance, at 7.5.



Interestingly, the console’s tie ratio rate has plateaued somewhat in the last eight months, as the figure in August 2008 was at 8.0 whereas today it has edged up to 8.3.



Sony Computer Entertainment America's senior VP of marketing, Peter Dille, has admitted that the PlayStation Portable has been hit hard by piracy - with as many as 50 million units in the marketplace potentially having been compromised.



"I'm convinced and we're convinced that piracy has taken out a big chunk of our software sales on PSP," Dille told Gamasutra. "It's been a problem that the industry has to address together; it's one that I think the industry takes very seriously, but we need to do something to address this because it's criminal what's going on, quite frankly.

EA says that an average of 2.2 million online games have been played each day since June, when the publisher first started releasing its 2009 EA Sports product line. This level of online play reflects an increase of more than 175 percent from the same period last year, the publisher said.



“The massive migration to online gaming has transformed the video game landscape, and this week's 500 millionth online EA Sports game highlights the radical shift that we've helped pioneer in the industry,” said Peter Moore, president of the division.



EA also provided a number of different angles to view its online volumes, stating that “4 billion minutes” of EA Sports games have been played since June, and that “35 years” of online play is amassed each day.



Both NFL 09 and FIFA 09 have over 2.4 million registered online users each, the company added.

The simple equation here being that hardware sales have just as much a significant effect on tie ratios as software does. Tie ratios are, after all, total software numbers divided by total hardware.



As the PS3 failed to get many new customers, its current users had many more games to purchase over the late months of 2008. The Wii, meanwhile, is selling incredibly well despite an inordinarily low turnout of significant titles.

The latest financial presentation from European video game retailer Game comes complete with lifetime European sales numbers for the current crop of consoles and handhelds. Let's take a look!



The information is presented in the form of a hardware install base chart, with data provided by GfK Chart Track and Game's own internal data, tallying the lifetime sales of each major console up to January of 2009. Taking a look at the UK numbers alone, we see that Nintendo has completely dominated the United Kingdom, with the Wii's 4.9 million topping the Xbox 360's 3.2 million and the PlayStation 3's 1.9 million. As if the Wii domination weren't enough,psp demos, Nintendo's DS tops the entire list with lifetime sales of 8.8 million. What about the PlayStation 2, with 10 million units sold? It had a 4 and a half year head start, so we're disqualifying it.



So how does the rest of Europe and Australia stack up?



Well, technically we can't be sure. Game's numbers only include those European countries where Game stores are located, so only France, Spain, Sweden, Denmark,free psp games, Norway, the Czech Republic, and Australia are represented, leaving out notable countries such as Germany and Italy, who will probably launch their own sales numbers aggressively across Europe at a later date.



The limited picture we get of Europe and Australia pretty much follows the same trends as the UK numbers, with the exception of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360,psp games download, with Sony's console showing a 300,000 console lead over the 360. Combining both totals together still has the PS3 a million behind, but it's catching up.






The most recent tie ratios (number of different games per console) for the Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii were presented by news site Gamasutra. The figures reveal that the PS3 had recently amassed a 6.5 tie ratio in North America, whereas the Wii’s was at 6.2.



NPD Analyst Anita Frazier offers a reasonable explanation for the recent trends, stating that the Wii enjoyed a striking run of hardware sales during the second half of 2008, yet the PS3 has experienced five straight months of lower year-on-year hardware sales.



The simple equation here being that hardware sales have just as much a significant effect on tie ratios as software does. Tie ratios are, after all, total software numbers divided by total hardware.



As the PS3 failed to get many new customers, its current users had many more games to purchase over the late months of 2008. The Wii, meanwhile, is selling incredibly well despite an inordinarily low turnout of significant titles.

(PlayStation?Portable) system has achieved "gold" status. The highly-anticipated action game will be available at retailers beginning the week of April 28, 2009.

Gamers can get a sneak peak at all of the furious action by downloading a free demo and trailer today, from PlayStation?Network.

About DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce

The multi-million selling Dynasty Warriors? series has long been renowned for pitting a lone warrior against an army of thousands. The highly-anticipated action game reinvents the Dynasty Warriors brand of action into this year's hottest multi-player experience on the PSP system.



DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is a game unlike any other in the series. For the first time, up to four friends can join together to form a "Strikeforce." As a team, players will travel to different towns, embark on quests,psp games, and use coordinated assaults to conquer heavily-armed fortresses and colossal beasts.



End of level bosses await intrepid heroes with a multitude of guises and deadly attacks while enemies, spread throughout each stage, possess much greater levels of intelligence and more powerful attacks. So now more than ever it's imperative that players work together as a team and find ways to overcome the challenges and obstacles that stand between them and victory.



New "Fury" transformations give characters even greater supernatural abilities and attacks, including lightning fast speed and the ability to fly. Warriors can now take to the skies and face off against their foes in spectacular aerial combat.



Later this year, KOEI will offer new content for DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce. Additional quests will be available free-of-charge, exclusively through PlayStation?Store.



DYNASTY WARRIORS: Strikeforce is developed by Omega Force and is for 1 to 4 players. Multi-player play is via ad-hoc mode only. This game is rated "T" (Teen- Violence) by the ESRB. For more information, visit www.koei.com/strikeforce. 



Over on the official PlayStation Blog, Director of PlayStation Network Operations Eric Lempel made a post today announcing a new firmware update for the PSP. Version 5.50 will be available soon and will introduce a few new features to Sony's portable.



The first addition is an information board which will be displayed on the XMB. This will be similar to the PS3 scrolling ticker that provides users with updates and news relating to the Sonyverse. Of course, you'll need to be at a wireless hotspot in order to access the streaming information.



The other features are somewhat less dramatic. Lempel notes that there are memory stick improvements which allow sub-folder creation on your PRO Duo. You will also be able to run internet searches based on the title of a game directly from the XMB. Just hover over the game's icon, hit Triangle and search away.



Lastly, PSP users will have free trial access to some Trend Micro services, which includes web security technology.
