Dominic Matthews talks adjusting to mobile platforms and UK tax breaks.
Cambridge, UK-based Ninja Theory has been out of the limelight for a while - a spell of quiet time the studio probably appreciates, after weathering a fan backlash to its excellent Devil May Cry reboot. The studio recently released Fightback with the help of Chillingo, an iOS brawler that combines DmC's florid art style with a "revolutionary" set of touchscreen controls. It's also working on a mysterious new IP, glimpsed at the end of a product reel from last year.

Slimgamer writes: "Here's an interesting rumour. According to this interview with voice actor Reuben Langdon, the VA best known for voicing Dante in Devil May Cry, provided the voice of Raiden for Super Smash Bros. Raiden has never appeared in a Smash Bros. game before, meaning he must be referring to the upcoming game in the series slated for release on Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. It is currently unknown whether Raiden will be a playable character or, more likely, an assist trophy or featured in a conversation with Snake."

"If that sounded bizarre, the actual gameplay is even more so. You'd think as the daughter of the king of evil, you'd be able to lay everything to waste in a game that would mechanically resemble Devil May Cry or Bayonetta... but you can't."

Rich of JillSandwich writes: The Playstation 2 has had many classic games in its near 13 year lifespan, from Timesplitters, Devil May Cry and Soul Calibur 2 to Ico, Okami and Shadow of the Colossus, the PS2 was a hot bed of great games. However look beyond the triple A titles and there are plenty of lesser known games that are worthy of your attention. Rumble Racing, released in 2001 by Electronic Arts, is an arcade style racer with hints of Mario Kart and Twisted Metal. Players have a choice of vehicles, which in turn, are tiered into 3 different classes, Rookie, Pro and Elite, which can be unlocked as the game progresses. Rookie cars will be slower, with little to no upgrades, Pro cars have aesthetic upgrades as well as speed boosts and more dynamic handling, whilst Elite vehicles have the best of everything.

Dustin Spencer from Capsule Computers writes: "Castlevania is without a doubt one of the most loved franchises in the industry. When Mercury Steam re-invented the brand with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, we seen an outpouring of feelings from fans. Some were amazed that the series could be so fully realized in a beautiful 3D world. Others cried foul and compared the reboot to God of War and Devil May Cry, stating that Castlevania sold out. Before I go any further, I will say that Lords of Shadow did not sell out and was its own experience, like it or not. We were given a gift of potential with that one release, where a new start was in full bloom and seeing the name Mercury Steam was now something to be excited about. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is the highly anticipated follow-up, and wants to further the lore of Castlevania with a new tale for Dracula. Does it live up to expectations, or does this title need a stake through the heart?"
