Poor Namco Bandai — of all the major Japanese publishers, they seem to receive the least, well, anything. They don’t absorb as much criticism as more controversial companies like Capcom, Konami or Square-Enix, but they also don’t get as much attention either. They just sort of putter along under the radar.
For instance, did you know Namco Bandai recently held their big 2012 Global Gamers Day event? Well, they did, and they actually announced some pretty damn interesting stuff. Among the games coming from Namco Bandai over the next year-or-so — a Star Trek title that acts as a prequel to the upcoming 2013 J. J. Abrams Trek movie, a North American localization of the beautiful looking Studio Ghibli RPG Ni no Kuni, and of course more Tekken and One Piece games.

Well, that certainly didn’t look anything like Star Trek. Don’t get me wrong, it could be a good game — it’s being developed by Digital Extremes who have worked on solid stuff like Bioshock 2, The Darkness 2 and Dark Sector — it just didn’t look anything like Star Trek aside from that half-second shot of a guy in a yellow shirt.
I want this. Really f–king bad.




Sad thing is the trailer for DBZ Kinect is better than the live-action DB movie. Side note: I was to buy the shit out of this. No more practicing Kamehameha move in my room at 4am by myself.
I’m cool with the Trek images because I always found it odd that Away Teams never wore any kind of specialized suit when they went on missions into already known hostile enviroments.
Come on, who needs more than a nice comfy red shirt when exploring a new hostile planet?
Tekken at home rocks hard! We have massive tourneys here at the apartment complex with plenty of smack talk and chagrined smack talkers…never gets stale. Tag team on PS3? Mine!
