A lot of people were hoping that the
Capcom teaser site was for a
new Onimusha game, but the fact that it was accessible from the Sengoku
Basara portal kinda weighed the odds in favor of a new Basara game. And
so it turned out to be just that.

the publisher clashed with FUNimation over the game license. Namco
Bandai announced last month that it had secured publishing rights to
three new entries in the franchise. Today,
Namco Bandai has announced that it's finishing what it started.

Although working for a games company such as
Nintendo seems like a
dream job for every gamer, it does get old, especially if you have
other interests you want to pursue. Such is what happened to
Wii Fit
designer Motoi Okayama, who has left the company to get going on his
dream of starting up his own website dedicated to a gallery of action
figure pictures.

Now this is one Dragon Ball title you should definitely look into.
Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo is a nice cartoony RPG based from the non-overpowered adventures of Goku as the little
monkey boy. No Super Saiyans and take-forever-to-kill Freezas here, just the Red Ribbon Army, the wacky old characters from Dragon Ball, and the stretchy stick that Goku never needed as an adult. Check it out.
