The 2008 DigitalChumps E3 Awards I'm pretty sure we're all doing this to have fun, but if I'm wrong about that, it's way too late to stop us from posting this article.  In light of IGN, Gamespot, et al sporting their professional picks for Game of the Show and all that jazz, we thought it only appropriate that we should develop our own breed of E3 awards write-up.  As such, we approached the concept in the usual meticulously organized DigitalChumps way; meaning, we all just wrote a bunch of random stuff.  The result is the following amalgam of retrospective tidbits.  On behalf of all of us at DigitalChumps.com, please enjoy. Please Note: The following article does not represent the collective opinion of DigitalChumps.com or its editors; it is merely a collection of random musings regarding the recent E3 2008 trade show.  So don't yell at us or get all pissed off if something bugs you; we're only kidding around.  Thanks! Most Likely to Provoke a Tenth Playthrough and Probably a Series of Wet Dreams Award I think the Robo on the far right might be the worst of them all Chrono Trigger DS First of all,...

Don't miss the awesome new trailer for Capcom's Bionic Commando.  We've got it for you FOR FREE in HD quality--spread the word. :) We'll have more on Bionic Commando as soon as we get our hands on it.

It seems like I’ve been doing this a lot recently, but I have to admit going in that Bionic Commando was one of the classic NES titles that I never actually owned. As a result, I never really got to play that much of it, but I was always intrigued by the unique style of its action/platforming gameplay that cut jumping out of the mix entirely in favor of grappling and swinging techniques used to hoist our hero through the air as necessary. It’s awkward at first, but it quickly becomes intuitive. Either way, Bionic Commando, developed by GRIN (and published by Capcom) for the Xbox 360, PC, and PlayStation 3, adds jumping back into the mix for sake of the player’s sanity within the massive 3-D worlds where it takes place. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic Ascension City, which has just been completely leveled by an enormous earthquake caused by an experimental terrorist weapon. Prior to the puzzling and unexpected attack, our hero, Nathan “R.A.D.” Spencer, had been imprisoned for false accusations under failed pretense, and was just about to be sent to his execution. Now, he’s the one thing they’ve got left to wage a war on...

You always hate to see it: you’re sitting there, minding your own business, when suddenly your entire family just up and disappears. Yeah, it’s annoying all right, and Ethan Kairos has just about had enough of the spontaneous evaporation of his loved ones. Thus, he sets out to unravel the mystery of their disappearance, and in the process, he comes across a curious tool called a Hollow Pen. This pen has the unique ability to open portals to the past wherever its wielder draws them. With it in hand, Ethan must tread through an increasingly intricate set of circumstances, altering elements of the past when necessary to influence corresponding changes in the future. This is the premise of Time Hollow, a new (and somewhat low-profile) story-driven point-and-tap adventure game from Konami. I spent around twenty minutes with it on the show floor and, while it’s hard to judge such a time-intensive and complicated game within less than a half an hour’s time, it seems to be shaping up to be quite the competent storybook experience. Popular Japanese writers Junko Kawano and Takehiko Hata are responsible for much of the plot and character development. Professionally-designed animated FMV sequences are used to tell...
