By William Usher: 2009-06-03 15:05:43
A few days too late, I know…most of everyone already listed their line-ups earlier but somehow Tecmo was a little late to the party. Nevertheless, you can check some of the games that will be coming out for your favorite platforms…and yes, this list really is super-huge.
Located at the E3 Expo 2009 in South Hall booth #822 between June 2nd and 4th, Tecmo will be showcasing the following games either in demo format for a little hands-on previewing or, in some cases, the games will simply be on display with looping trailers. I’m not going to spend a whole lot of time giving you a rundown of the following list because it really is a big ‘ole list of games, each with tons of features. Anyway, I’ll simply point you Tecmo’s Official Website. (because it’s important to know who’s making the following games. And next up, I’ll inform you about staying tuned in with Blend Games (because it’s important to remember where you get your gaming news from) and from here on out, I’ll leave you and Tecmo’s super-huge game line-up all alone.
