Welcome to The Black List, your one stop shop for all of the stories published on the site this week.
MONDAY l PREVIEW l New Horizons (Part 9 of 10) > Super Monkey Ball director Toshihiro Nagoshi is working on a futuristic squad based shooter for SEGA. Sadly, it appears that none of the lead roles in Binary Domain have been reserved for apes. Perhaps by way of compensation, you will be invited to mix it up with scores of rebellious robots on the streets of Tokyo. It won’t be long, however, before you begin to question the morality of your assignment. This is just one of the games addressed in the ninth instalment of New Horizons, our massive preview of original IPs in 2011. READ MORE

This is just one of the games addressed in the tenth instalment of New Horizons, our massive preview of original IPs in 2011. READ MORE
