Sony Japan has released some new screens of the upcoming Monster Hunter 3 HD for the PS3. It has also been confirmed that the game will be available digitally on Japanese PSN, which is a welcome addition for a game that sold over 4 million in Japan. The game can be imported for $59 with shipping from HERE . All PS3 games are region free and can be played on any console. The Blu-ray includes all Monster Hunter videos from previous titles done in HD and believe me when I say that is a lot of videos. Your save game is transferable from PSP to PS3 as well. The multi-player will use adhoc so I wanted to point out that adhoc uses a wired internet connection only and this may still be the case, again I am not sure. If you played the previous titles and are curious as to whats new in 3 here is a quick look at a video I made. Here is the official Trailer Source: Capcom Japan

Like Wayne says on the popular early ’90s movie/SNL skit ‘Wayne’s World’, this video basically says “Let me bring you up to speed.” It’s, apparently, the intro cinematic for the upcoming game, InFAMOUS 2, which doesn’t show off any spoilers, but it, really, just gives you a recap of the first game and why you’re going down to New Marais. I’ve read a few comments about how some people didn’t care about Cole’s voice being done by another voice actor, until this video, but you be the judge of that.

Here is another one of my awesome interviews at PAX East. This one is with Gregan Dunn, the Director of Business Development at Hothead Games. He was kind enough to talk to me about their upcoming game called Swarm. In Swarm you control up to 50 Swarmites as they are called, and bend them to your will. There are a lot of things to do in this game and it actually does take some thought to get an awesome score. I am not sure what my score was when I tried this game after the interview, but it wasn’t any where close to the the 14 million points or even Gregan’s score for that matter. I must admit, even though I played this game for a short time period, I had a lot of fun. Watch the video below and let me know what you think.
