Why did BioShock Infinite win our “best of show” ribbon at E3 2011? How did the game earn over 70 awards at the conference in total? Just what did I and my fellow journalists experience behind closed doors that had us so exhilarated, so awestruck, so presumptively positive that Infinite would end up Game of the Year in 2012?

Stop wondering and see for yourself! The complete 15-minute gameplay demo is available for viewing right here… …

Hardcore sports enthusiasts have a lot of quality games to pick from that let them dig deeply into the minutia of their favorite athletic pastimes, but not everyone likes sweating all the details. As satisfying as that depth and realism can be, there’s still a lot to be said for the simplicity of ol…

Let’s assume, for the moment, that a significant part of the driving force behind the recent Operation Rainfall movement is its members’ honest love of RPGs (and frustration isn’t the only thing fueling the campaign). Let’s further assume, then, that these fans working so hard to get titles like Xenoblade Chronicles and The Last Story released in North America would be open to the idea of playing some other role-playing games while they wait for further word from Nintendo about their efforts…

Directors of Metal Gear and No More Heroes detail long-awaited collaboration inspired by Snatcher.

Suda 51 and Hideo Kojima have been talking about collaborating for five years. The first concrete project to feature the pair of star designers has finally come to light, as Famitsu reports that Kojima today announced Sdatcher.

Kojima, no doubt pondering how to get illustrations into a radio drama.

Pronounced “Su Datcher,” the project is a radio drama inspired by Kojima’s 1988 adventure game Snatcher (eventually released in the US on Sega CD in 1994). The tweak on the name is a nod to No More Heroes director Suda, who will write the story. Kojima will direct the show, with Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka providing the music and Yoshio Kasatoshi working on character designs and illustrations (though it’s unclear what illustrations a radio drama would require).

While Suda and Kojima have not previously teamed up on a game, Suda and Yamaoka are coming off their own critically acclaimed collaboration with Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami, Shadows of the Damned.

It’s not clear when Sdatcher will premiere, or who will be used as the show’s voice cast. Kojima did say it should be enjoyable to newcomers as well as those familiar with the original Snatcher. The project has been in the works for some time, originally being talked about in 2007 under the code name “Project S.”
