GameCrave: Of Ninjas and Booth Babes

It’s not a spectacular week for new games, but there is Tenchu: Shadow Assassins for the Wii. The latest iteration of this long-running franchise contains much of the same stealth ninjaing as before, but with motion controls. I’ve never hopped on board the series previously, but perhaps now’s the time, as it’s been a while since I’ve ninja’ed anything. Crappy dialog aside, it should please original Tenchu fans (like our editor!).

If you’ll be in the L.A. area from June 2-4, you may have a decent shot a sneaking in to E3. The once epic game industry trade show, which downsized significantly for the last two years, is trying to restore its former glory. Registration will no longer be invite-only — though it’s still limited to industry professionals, analysts and journalists — and the number of vendors should more than double over last year. Oh yes, and booth babes will be back, because you just can’t have a bl0w-out trade show without them.
