High profile game releases come and go; we play the heck out of titles and usually move on. But sometimes, we don't. We go back, again and again, due to some unknown and mysterious force, beckoning at our wills.

Mario Kart DS and Clubhouse Games always seem to wind up in our DS after periods of relative inactivity; the casual nature of said games make it extremely easy to fit a round in whenever the mood strikes. Other games, however, such as Metroid Prime: Hunters, have gone untouched for months. Which titles do you guys play again and again, burning the midnight oil? ...

News from evildragon

EvilDragon (yay, that's me) with some help from Gernot Frisch just released a small app for your gp2x called QuickStart.

It is a simple tool that is meant to be run upon booting up. It runs applications (which can be simply configured with a simple .ini-file) according to the button you press upon starting.

I for myself use it to automatically run gmenu2x if I boot without pressing a button or running GMU when I boot the gp2x while pressing L.

Instructions on how to use it are included in the archive.
Please post any wishes, bugs, feedback, etc. here.
It's been coded using GLBasic

The ESRB website is often the source of new game release information and it has now revealed plans to release Quake III: Team Arena for Xbox 360. The PC FPS was released back in December 2000 as an expansion to Quake III: Arena, offering new team-focused multiplayer modes and weapons.

With no official confirmation from Activision it is currently thought that the game will be released on Xbox Live Arcade. This won't be the first time Quake III has made it to consoles though, with Quake III: Arena making it to Dreamcast in 2000 and Quake III Revolution appearing on PlayStation 2 in 2001. Remarkably, the Dreamcast game allowed console and PC players to go head-to-head.

According to the ESRB listing, Quake III: Team Arena for Xbox 360 is in development at Pi Studios, which has previously worked on the Call of Duty series. ...

new press release:

UK publisher Ghostlight Ltd. are continuing their exciting expansion plans and further broadening an impressive release schedule by moving onto the Nintendo DS format, with the sensational forthcoming title Glory Days 2. Developed by French based ODenis Studio, multilingual Glory Days 2 is scheduled for a May release in all PAL territories.

Glory Days 2 offers classic good versus evil shoot-em-up action, combined with ferocious real time strategy; a first on the DS. This unique combination of genres, combined with the Nintendo DS’s innovative control system and dual screens, makes for an immersive and, most importantly, fun gaming experience. 3D glasses functionality brings another dimension to gameplay, enhancing graphics and adding depth to battle-damaged landscapes.

The player controls one of three heroic aviators, progressing through 16 expansive campaigns, gradually evolving from classic WWII aircraft to modern-day F14’s and deadly Apache helicopters. Flying aces engage in dogfights with the enemy, alternating between machine guns, and heat-seeking missiles to down their foes and claim air supremacy. Fearless helicopter pilots deploy troops behind enemy lines and weave through flak, bombing key strategic units in a compelling tug-of-war for territorial possession.

Players take command over ground units, allocating funds to build tanks, ground troops and mobile ground-to-air defences during real time battles. Funds can be accrued by capturing the opponent’s bases and saving civilians in Choplifter-esque rescue missions. As players’ progress their military might grows, unlocking V2 rockets, drones, paratroopers and devastating B-2 stealth bombers.

Players can go head-to-head in the fierce and gripping WiFi multiplayer mode, supporting up to 8 players split into 2 cooperative teams, both with one objective; capture and destroy the enemy command centre. Battles are fully customisable, allowing players to choose vehicle allocations, gameplay type (action, tactical or strategic), length of play and even weather conditions.

Adrian Clews, Marketing Executive, comments: “Glory Days 2 is highly addictive, with fantastic gameplay, combining the best elements of classics such as Choplifter and Silkworm blended with Advanced Wars in one glorious game.” Adrian continues “The multiplayer game and 3D glasses functionality is sensational and sure to be a massive hit with DS owners.” ...
