October 24, 2012 by Leave a Comment

This past weekend we gamed for 24 straight hours, earning over $ 10,500 for hospitals in the Children's Miracle Network. We let big donators choose which games we would play during the livestream as a thank you. For your enjoyment, we're posting our slappers-only GoldenEye multiplayer match and Nier session.

Reminder: It's not too late to donate to Extra Life.

Game Informer associate editor Tim Turi, video producer Ben Hanson, intern O'Dell Harmon, and former intern/Extra Life coordinator Jack Gardner are rudely reminded that GoldenEye has aged quite poorly:

Nier developers worked on team-based RPG shooter

May 1, 2012 by Leave a Comment

Cavia, the team behind 2010′s Nier, has been working on a new RPG shooter named Catacombs, a new report has it.

Taking place in New York’s Museum of Natural History, the now-on-hold title features four playable characters and is team-based. Siliconera — they have information on its characters and weapons here, along with some screenshots — found the title out.

Square Enix appears to be on the fence about this one though, apparently, not knowing whether or not it’ll ever be finished.

In an official statement to Kotaku, the publisher would only say:  ”We have not made any official announcement on this title and do not have info we can share.”

Catacombs: a canned shooter from Square Enix and Nier dev Cavia

Nier developer Cavia was working on a team-based shooter RPG, entitled Catacombs, for Square Enix before the studio was dissolved a couple years ago. Siliconera has a wealth of information about the canceled game from an inside source, who was working on the project before its reported demise.

Catacombs sounds like it was a mix of team-based shooters like Left 4 Dead, mixed with the loot-whoring of Borderlands, and Diablo‘s randomly generated maps. Players would have guns, spells and magic rings to level up as they attempted to reach the elevator on each floor and escape to the surface.

According to the source, Square Enix planned to reveal the game at last year’s E3, but that clearly never happened. The source claims Catacombs was far along and playable, but is unsure whether Square Enix will complete the title.
