Konami Digital Entertainment has announced that Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker will be released on May 28th, 2010, in the United Kingdom.

Saw Review

Thu, Nov 26th, 2009, 11:24 am (EST) BY DARRYL

Since there has never been a game for the franchise, questions surely have to be asked about how successfully the formula that's made it a big screen success can adapt to the world of video games. Is this another game that goes down the same road as so many in the past? More »

How about taking the reins of tornado, of all things? That's exactly what Konami hopes will steal the spotlight this season, with their latest title for the Nintendo Wii, Tornado Outbreak. However, the courageous Zephyr alongside captain Nimbus and his squad of Wind Warriors are more likely to rip the spotlight out of the ground before standing in it, but that's just what you'd expect from a swarm of tornados, right?
