0  E3 2010 Preview: Tecmo Koei Mon, Jun 7th, 2010, 8:06 pm (EST) BY JORDAN DOUGLAS Tecmo and Koei are both storied Japanese game publishers responsible for iconic franchises such as Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden, and Dynasty Warriors. In 2009, the two companies announced plans to merge, which isn't as interesting as it may sound because nothing really changed. As for E3 2010, well, the publisher hasn't publicly released much information on its lineup at this point, allowing us to let our minds run wild with speculation. A new Ninja Gaiden? Dynasty Warriors? Quantum Theory on the show floor? It's all on the table. While Tecmo Koei's lineup is largely a mystery, one thing is a fairly set bet, Quantum Theory will be making an appearance. The Gears of War-esque game is being targeted at a Western audience and is currently slated for a Summer 2010 release window. So, what better way to promote it then with a big showing at E3, the biggest gaming conference in the West. Expect Tecmo to announce a firm release date for the game, alongside a playable demo.

0  Quantum Isn't A Gears Of War Clone Posted on 2009/06/10 BY DARRYL Ever since Tecmo's PlayStation 3 exclusive, Quantum, was announced last year, many people have compared it to Microsoft's behemoth franchise, Gears of War.
