NEWS - Here's the first trailer for the movie adaption of Prince of Persia:The Sands of Time and it's not bad. It's even possible to think that after viewing the trailer that the movie won't just be another mish-mash of CGI and corny dialog as it looks like the filmmakers have captured not only the action of the game but the sly sense of humor and personality that made the first game good.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.

Strategy Game Mecho Wars Goes Online [IPhone]

post from Kotaku on 03 November 2009 10:20:00 AM. © Kotaku

One of the iPhone and iPod Touch's answers to Advanced Wars now supports online play.

I mostly-loved Mecho Wars when I reviewed it this summer. But one of the big things the game was missing was online multiplayer.

Earlier this week game developers Oyaji released an ad-supported free version of the game that allows players to battle one another over a WiFi connection.

The game, which uses OpenFeint for online support, allows you to select turn time limits ranging from 5 minutes to 24 hours. There are also four game modes: Conquer, gold differ, assassination and annihilation.

If you'd rather not deal with the ads, which are pretty low-key, and want access to the full game, including several single-player campaigns, you can buy the full version of Mecho Wars for $.99 which also includes the online play.

HAWPcast: A bunch of stories you can't relate to

HAWPcast: A bunch of stories you can't relate to screenshot

_{Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin' is a surreal comedy series made by Anthony and Ashly Burch. They do a weekly podcast about the show, and everything else that comes to mind.}

God help the stream-of-consciousness style of these podcasts. A good portion of this week's episode will mean absolutely nothing to you, as you are (A) not, as far as I can tell, either Ashly or myself and (B) probably not intimately familiar with our friends.

Still, there's some decent stuff in there. Bits about almost getting beaten up, and some good discussion about the Star Wars trilogy.

As always, you can listen to the show here or subscribe to us on iTunes. And hit the jump for a (very short) linkdump of the things we discuss on the podcast.

Heroes Invokes Crono And Marle

NBC's once-darling show Heroes has been suffering from story problems for a long time, but every now and then it can still pull something delightful out of its battered hat. Consider the recent episode "Once Upon a Time in Texas" in which protagonist Hiro Nakamura makes the case that he needs to travel back in time to save his now-dead girlfriend from her fate by declaring that she is "the Marle to my Crono!". How much of the dwindling Heroes...
