Rayman Raving Rabbids in Chess?


Well as if eating the Wii Fit Balance Board was not insane enough, they are popping up in a chess game. Now before all of the Nintendo fans out there get all excited, this is not for a Nintendo Console. It is for the Xbox Live Arcade. But wait, this game does not look to graphically powerful on the 360, so there could be a chance for the developers to bring this to WiiWare. That would be cool. I may get this on Xbox Live arcade, because I love the rabbids, and I like a good game of chess.

Crash and Spyro are back!

Well any time one game has a new release the other has one too. That is what is going to happen with Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant, and The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. Both of these games are made by Sierra. And both of them look good. Yes, even the Spyro one. Here is what IGN had to say:

Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant



In Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant, a rejuvenated Neo Cortex is taking over the world one brain at a time! Cortex and N. Brio devise a new kind of evil – a text-messaging, do-anything device which controls both mutant and bandicoot minds. Armed with his quick-wits and lightening agility, Crash must free his friends, the titans and save the day!

"The Crash Bandicoot franchise has built a wide audience of loyal fans, appealing to both male and female gamers of all ages," said Al Simone, senior vice president, Global Marketing for Sierra Entertainment. "The Crash series remains one of the most recognizable franchises in our industry and we're excited to make this year's family-friendly title appear at the top of every gamer's wish list this holiday."

Key features in Crash Bandicoot: Mind over Mutant include:

Mutant in your Pocket! - Not only does Crash gain the ability to control his enemies when he jacks them – now he can store his favorite monsters in his pocket, upgrade them and utilize their powers when they are most advantageous

"Free-Romping" World Design - Wumpa Island becomes a "free-romping" environment, allowing players to travel and explore through intersecting worlds, with different gameplay options available depending on what creature you've brought along for the ride
The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon



In the final chapter of the trilogy, players find Sypro teaming up with an unlikely ally - Cynder, his former enemy, to face his most challenging mission to date. As the Dark Master's (voiced by Mark Hamill) evil envelopes the world like a plague, Spyro must fulfill his destiny and unlock the true power of the purple dragon within him to stop the Dark Master in his tracks. The game introduces two never before seen elements into the Spyro universe: Spyro can now fly at any time and players can drop-in/drop-out with the new cooperative feature. The co-op feature allows players to have the option of completing the game as either Spyro or Cynder, giving them more freedom to explore Spyro's world in completely new ways. "Spyro has grown up a lot since his debut, and players are going to notice advanced gameplay, character design and story lines in Dawn of the Dragon," said Al Simone, senior vice president, Global Marketing for Sierra Entertainment. "The game takes some exciting twists and turns – fans of the series and newcomers alike will experience non-stop fun, a renewed sense of intensity and the type of challenging adventure only Spyro can overcome.

Well, thats just dandy. I try and get into this series, and I get stuck about 25 percent into the first game. Now this is going to be like the 5th or so game in the series. Meh. But for you fans out there know that there is going to be a Xbox 360/PS3 game which may start another trilogy. There is also going to be a new separate game made for the DS.
