Capcom plans to announce two games at PAX East
Capcom plans to talk about a ton of games at this year’s PAX East show, including two unannounced projects! The two games will be unveiled during the “World of Capcom” panel scheduled for Friday, March 22 at 12 Noon.
If you’ve got PAX East tickets and you miss the panel, be sure to swing by their booth as Darkstalkers Resurrection, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, Remember Me and Lost Planet 3 will all be playable on the show floor.
PAX East 2013 will be held March 22-24 in Boston and if you don’t have tickets, you’re too late. They officially sold out a day or two ago.

Deep Silver has something “HUGE” planned for PAX East
Aubrey Norris, Deep Silver’s Marketing Director, has revealed that the publisher has something “HUGE” planned for this year’s PAX East show:
Dear media:You’re going to want to be at PAX East this year.If not, you’re going to be missing out on something HUGE. Just FYI!
— Aubrey Norris (@Chupacaubrey) March 2, 2013
Deep Silver obtained the rights to Metro: Last Light and the Saints Row series (including Saints Row 4) during the THQ auction back in January. Perhaps this announcement has something to do with either of those games, or possibly Deep Silver’s other big franchise, Dead Island.
PAX East will be held from March 22nd through the 24th and, as of this writing, tickets are officially sold out.

Blizzard is bringing “something different” to PAX East
Blizzard is bringing the PS3 version of Diablo III to this year’s PAX East show, but it looks like they’ve got a surprise in store for congoers as well.
In an invitation to the gaming media, Blizzard has confirmed that they’re bringing “a little something” that’s “different from our other games.” Whatever this “little something” is will make its worldwide debut on Friday, March 22 at 10 AM within the Naga Theater.
As far as hints go, Blizzard has given us this: “It’s not a sequel, expansion, or that rumored next-gen MMO, but it’s something we’re excited for you to get your hands on.”
Hmm. That’s not much to go on. I guess we’ll find out in three weeks.

Diablo III for PS3 will be playable at PAX East 2013
After years of hints (which started before the PC version was even released), Blizzard has finally announced the existence of the console of Diablo III. And we’ll get our first chance to play it at this year’s PAX East expo (March 22-24).
Sadly, Blizzard is only bringing the PS3 version to Boston. So if you were hoping to get your hands on the new DualShock 4 controller, I’m sorry to disappoint. But the PS3 version is better than nothing, right?
“Diablo III looks and plays great on the PlayStation,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. “We put a lot of care and thought into the PlayStation version to make sure it would deliver an authentic Diablo gaming experience, and we’re really pleased with the results. We can’t wait for players to try it out at PAX East.”
Diablo III on the PS3 will feature all of the enhancements found in the latest edition of the game including “the Paragon leveling system, customizable Monster Power, Brawling, and epic Legendary items.” PS3 players should be on the lookout for “an all-new user interface, including an intuitive control scheme and a new dynamic camera perspective.”
Oh yeah, and couch co-op for up to four people as well.

First Penny Arcade 4 battle screenshots include helpful monsters and more
The development of Penny Arcade’s On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 4 is coming along nicely at Zeboyd Games and the duo believes the project is far enough along to release a few screenshots showing off the new battle system (you can see them for yourself after the break).
Zeboyd is trying something a bit different with Penny Arcade 4. They’ve decided to ditch the Class system and replace it with a monster recruiting/training mode instead. And two of the monsters you’ll be able to recruit are the refined gentlemen monsters, Twisp and Catsby!
After they’ve agreed to join your team, monsters can be assigned a human trainer, which will affect how their stats level up. A new “Analyze” feature will also be added to your bag of holding, which will allow the Startling Developments Detective Agency a chance to pre-select which team members would be best to send into battle against a group of evil monsters.
Penny Arcade’s On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 4 will be on display at this year’s PAX East show (March 22-24) and will be available in the Spring on PC download services and the Xbox Live Indie Games channel. (more…)
