They say that they’ve wanted to make a portableDead or Alivefor awhile, but never felt like a portable game system could handle their fighting game.

Anyway, here’s something I know we can count on: a ten-game sale for Xbox LIVE Arcade. It starts today and continues through April 7. The games? They aren’t top of the line necessarily, but they aren’t all that bad either — well, maybeTrack & Fieldis pretty gross. Here are the new prices: If only because seemingly few people have playedSchizoid, that’s going to be my recommendation from this group. Anything jump out at you here, guys?...

Critics and videogame nerds generally agree that World War II is overdone. A few studios feel the same way as well, specifically developer Infinity Ward, who found themselves singing the WW II blues over five years ago when publisher Activision offered to allow the studio to develop console games in exchange for makingCall of Duty 2what it is this day. “WithCall of Duty 2, we were dead set against it being World War II,” IW’s Vince Zampella toldOfficial PlayStation Magazine(spotted byCVG) in a recent interview, “but Activision really wanted it, the compromise sort of being that we’d get some dev kits for consoles in exchange for doing a World War II game....

You may remember a little Web site calledBrightfalls.net, a fan-operated, Remedy-sanctioned news site that, very much likeAlan Wakeitself, provided interesting things for a while before quickly disappearing into the realm of the forgotten. Well, the site is back online, andsome wordsfrom a wily community manager has hinted that E3 may be the place where someWake-related news may finally happen. The hints went down on theAlan Wakeforums, where one poster said that the game would be shown this Monday....

Once again, it is time for Art Attack Friday, or AAF for short. This week, the spotlight of awesome has fallen uponBonus-kun, so named after the famous Bonus Kun fromWaku Waku 7(and you may have noticed the punching bag as you explore past stories on Dtoid too).

[Art Attack Friday is your weekly look at videogame fan art created by a talented artist.] Art Attack Friday this week is all about TWULF. Most notable from TWULF’s collection is hisHylian Heropieces. TWULF says it’s “perfectly logical that perhaps somewhere along the time line, the chosen hero is a daughter of Hyrule and not a son.” I have to agree and would gladly play aZeldagame starring a female hero if she looks anything as good as TWULF’sconcepts....

Universal studios has justbought the rightsto produce a film based on the classic Atari game,Asteroids. I’m going to repeat that sentence, just so you know I typed it, with more emphasis: Universal Studioshas justbought the rights toproduce a filmbased on the classic Atari game,Asteroids. On the bright side, there’s no story to Asteroids for them to screw up. Really, all they need to do is have a triangular ship breaking apart rocks in space to stay true to the source material....

Things aren’t looking good for the publisher of such hits asJumperandAlvin and the Chimpmunks. To start, as of last week, Brash Entertainment has shut its doors. So I suppose it’s not too surprising to hear that they’re being sued by two developers for non-payment of dues work work. 7 Studios and Zootfly have both hit Brash with a suit. The former says Brash owes them $113,000 forSix Flags Fun Parkand an adaptation of the upcoming Tim Burton-produced film,9....
