Vandal Hearts

RPG fans listen up! Are you ready to join Tobias Martin and his comrades for free? That’s right, I’ve got ten pass codes for Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment to give away. And let’s make this simple. From February 17th until February 28th drop me an email with Vandal Hearts Giveaway in the subject line. Winners will be selected randomly. Also, these codes are divided in half: five for the PlayStation Network and five for Xbox Live. So, in your email specify the platform you desire. 

Voltron

I love this game! Okay, surely there is some bias, since my affair with Voltron goes back to childhood – don’t forget, I still own the original Bandai GoLion. But this game should fulfill the expectations of mobile gamers. 

Tekken 6

The holiday season means one thing: family. Fortunately Namco Bandai has provided a great coping mechanism. No, not eggnog. With the release of Dragon Ball Revenge of KIng Piccolo and Tekken 6, we've got fighting, fighting, and more fighting!  

Ninja Destiny 2

Following the Shippuden plot from its inception to the reunion of Naruto and Sasuke, this game is an apt blend of RPG and fighting play. Story mode allows you to fight your way through the story arc, yet not get slowed down by excessively long periods of dialogue. And if you master story mode, quest mode, with thirty different levels will further test your jutsu prowess.

Alright Naruto fans, get ready to put your jutsu to work. TOMY is due to release two titles that you cannot miss: Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja Revolution 3 (Wii) and Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Destiny 2 (DS).

At this year’s Comic-Con I had a chance to preview these games at the TOMY booth. Let’s just say I’m elated that I scheduled a brief appointment.

Prior to Comic-Con TOMY hooked me up with a copy of Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Council 4 for the DS. Admittedly, I haven’t been much of a fan of the DS system. I never found the small screen and 2D visuals very attractive. As a Naruto fan, however, this title began to alter my opinion of DS gaming.

Ninja Council 4

Pangya

PSP, 1-8 players, Publisher: TOMY.

On Pangya Island you’re not just playing an ordinary round of 18 holes. This hidden treasure offers inter-dimensional golf. That’s right. Whether you want to play the back 9 on a wave-washed course, or test your skills on ice, Pangya has a course for you. Oh, and let’s not forget the 18 fully customizable, anime-esque characters. As you progress, and if you so choose, you might find yourself chipping balls in Bermuda shorts or even a bikini!
