Don’t expect any female wrestlers in WWE All Stars

One of the main reasons I even got into watching the WWE when I was younger was because of the female wrestlers like Trish Stratus and Stacy Keibler. What? I’m a guy. Deal with it. I checked outWWE All Starslast week, and noticed that there wasn’t a single female fighter on the roster. So I asked Mike McTyre, one of the producers on the game, why we won’t be seeing the lovely Divas of past and present....

DS/Wii Q1 2007 Europe titles

In light of thePrince of PersiaWii announcement, a few of us on Destructoid were debating whether or not the Wii would succumb to the same fate as the GameCube. While some of us believe the console will see several quick and dirty ports that won’t compare to their PS3 and 360 counterparts, several of us still have enough faith in developers to believe that eventually the Wii will be blessed with a large library of games built specifically for the system from the ground up....

Dynasty Warriors 6 Empires has some videos

Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires launches next week, bringing the new weapons from Dynasty Warriors 6: Special, a full-on strategy mode and a character edit function to the game.

He was strangely absent from DW6, but he’s returned in all his half-naked glory, and Koei has released a video of him in action....

E3 09: Splinter Cell Conviction really impressed me

Splinter Cell Convictionwas the most pleasantly surprising thing I saw at E3 today. Period. Part of that may be that I found the franchise’s last installment,Double Agent, incredibly depressing. But more likely it’s due to the fact that withConviction, the guys at UbiSoft have managed to create something that is not only stylistically spectacular, but — at least, as it was presented to me during a fifteen minute developer playthrough — could potentially be an even better fusion of stealth and balls-out action than anything we’ve seen before (yes, including theMetal Gear Solidseries)....
