Not happy to rest on their well known franchises (well, not COMPLETELY happy) Square Enix have got 2 new Xbox LIVE Arcade games to show everyone at E3.
The first, Space Invaders Infinity Gene, will be the next game in the iconic Space Invaders franchise and will be fairly straightforward. Each game will start out like the original, then slowly transform during the game to include updated features, new stages and a "3D twist".
The second is much harder to explain. Necromachina is Square Enix's spin on the old German legend of Faust. In the 22nd century the world is dying and machines devour the helpless. Only a boy named Faust can put a stop to the end of days by using the power of Mephistopheles to breath life back into the planet. It won't be an easy task though as the Moondivers, a squad of ninja assassins, attempt to stop him under orders from their shogun.
So we've got space invaders and a cross between the matrix and something with ninjas. Both sound a little weird at the moment, but i'm interested to see how they look at E3.
Speaking of Space Invaders and Square, they produced a Space Invaders game on the DS...And let me tell you, it's fuckin' addicting and one of my favourite DS of all time. It's just fuckin' awesome. It's the music that you make/plays in the background...Just look out for it, Space Invaders Extreme DS....Play it.
