The easiest type of Toko enemy you can find in Ugly Duckling Isle, the eastern-most small island on the map, east of the Summerlands.

• Alternate Outfit #1: Swimsuit (Summer Clothing); Oliver wears this in the sunny harbor town.
• Alternate Outfit #2: Fur Coat (Winter Clothing); Oliver wears this in any snowy region.

“In Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, ‘familiars’ are creatures you send out to battle for you. They will evolve as the story progresses. The two familiars available with your pre-order of Ni No Kuni are:
GRIFFY – Able to spy its prey from great distances, the Griffy is known as the Hunter of the Skies. With its fearsome Phantom Fangs and its potent Petrifying Puff, this creature is not to be trifled with, especially when it evolves into its most lethal forms, the Griffurnace or the Griffigerator.
FLUTTERBY – This elegant flying creature delights all who are fortunate enough to catch it, but beware of its Gust Buster and its perilous Poison Pinch. The Flutterby evolves into either the midnight Flutterby or the midday Flutterby, depending on the path chosen by its owner.”

The Ni no Kuni characters list shows the main cast of characters you’ll encounter in the PS3 exclusive JRPG game.

With the game being co-developed by Japanese developer Level-5 and anime company Studio Ghibli, the characters have a very distinct Ghibli design aided by Level-5′s cel-shaded graphics.

Here’s a Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch trailer showing off the main characters:

Ni no Kuni Characters List

3. Drippy “Lord High Lord of the Fairies” — Turned into a doll by the curse of the Dark Djinn, Drippy is brought back to life by Oliver’s tears. – Drippy is of the belief that the pure-hearted Oliver has the power to defeat the Dark Djinn that controls the world, and so he leads him on his adventure.
4. Esther “The Familiar’s Friend” — Hailing from the desert kingdom of Al Mamoon, Esther is a fearless and lively young girl who loves to sing. But in Motorville…
5. King Tom Tildrum XIV “King of Ding Dong Dell” — King Tom the XIVth seems to be lazing about, lacking any motivation to rule his kingdom. Under this kind of neglect, what will become of Ding Dong Dell?

7. Oliver “The Pure-Hearted One” — He’s the main protagonist of the game; an energetic and honest 13 year old boy. He loves tinkering with machines and he and his best friend Phil are always dreaming about cars and contraptions. – Oliver travels with Drippy to the other world in hopes of bringing his mother back to life. His journey will be dangerous, but the many friends he meets will aid him in trials.

Top 100 Biggest Games of 2013

See the Top 100 Biggest Games of 2013 in the overview below. I love making this list every year. Mainly because 2013 is looking to be yet another awesome year for us gamers!

Anticipation without means, is half the fun or so it seems. While you are now looking forward to a great many games, at the end of 2013 we believe the listed 100 titles are the games you will fondly remember playing. Both logical and indeterminable factors taken into account are: Hype, developer potential, nostalgia, recent critical successes, a series’ past sales and average review scores, all counted towards this unbiased Top 100 of big games you can expect to see in 2013.

Please comment to let us know: What are your favorite games of 2013?

No doubt one of your favorite games is missing*. We want to emphasize this is not our personal opinion, we’ve had to cut about 100+ games from the original overview in editing the past 20 hours. But we’re really happy with how the Top 100 turned out and hope to play all of them this year (all of us at VGB own all systems). If your favorites aren’t high enough in the list we look forward to seeing what your Top 5 looks like in the comments. Release date are listed behind each game’s systems overview. If you’re looking for more info from a certain game, click on its preview link. With that said…

* The long disclaimer about why certain games are/aren’t included:
The following games don’t have a clear launch window yet, are on hold, or aren’t expected to arrive until 2014: The Last Guardian, Agent, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Half-Life 3, Beyond Good & Evil 2, DOOM 4, Prey 2, Duke Nukem Begins, Cyberpunk 2077, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, The Legend of Zelda HD, Dark Souls II, Guillermo Del Toro’s InSane, Tomonobu Itagaki’s Devil’s Third, Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium, Persona 5, ObsCure 3, Monster Hunter 4, BioShock Vita, Duke Begins, next Prince of Persia game, next Assassin’s Creed game, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, Fable 4, Fallout Online, Fallout 4, Thief 4, and The Agency. — Then there’s all the awesome downloadable content releases that I didn’t know where to place. Remakes like HD Collections & Ports were excluded, since the focus is mainly on new releases. We wished to included more iPhone/iPad/handheld titles and more games from Indie developers, but they are often not announced until nearly complete. E3 2013 will also hold surprise announcements we don’t know about yet. What remained is what you see below and while all these games are wildly different, we truly believe these games will all be on par with each other with 8, 9 or 10 out of 10 scores.

Release Date: March 12, 2013

Developer: Sony Computer Entertainment Santa Monica Studio
Genre: Hack ‘n Slash, Action-Adventure

Why Play It?: Aside from the epic-looking single-player, God of War: Ascension is the first game in the series to feature multiplayer modes, a revamped combat & weapon system, and new gameplay mechanics are teased. Although the game has been called “God of War 4″, chronologically speaking it’s the first chapter of Kratos’ story.

Sales Previous Game: 4 Million
Release Date: March 26, 2013
System: Xbox 360, PS3, PC
Developer: Irrational Games
Genre: First-Person Shooter

Why Play It?: The studio behind the original BioShock is back! Set in 1912, before the other two games, but not as a prequel. BioShock Infinite introduces an entirely new narrative experience that lifts players out of the familiar confines of Rapture and rockets them to Columbia, an immense city in the sky. On this adventure the mysterious protagonist will be tasked to save Elizabeth, a “great AI companion” with “near-human behavior”.

#3. Destiny

Sales Previous Developed Game: 11.5 Million
Release Date: Fall 2013
System: Xbox 360, PS3
Developer: Bungie
Genre: First-Person Shooter / Action-Adventure?

Why Play It?: The studio that built Halo signed up with Activision just to be able to make this brand new game, their first multiplatform title since leaving Microsoft. Word has it they are hoping Destiny will start a Trilogy that will rival the original Star Wars Trilogy in scope. It’s an ambitious project for sure, as you can see in this fan-made trailer with the game’s actual concept art animated.

#2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4

Info: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Hints
Buy It: Only available as of yet is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Sales Previous Game: 25+ Million
Release Date: November 12, 2013 (estimate)
System: Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii U
Developer: Treyarch
Genre: First-person Shooter

Why Play It?: As part of a yearly release cycle, a sequel to Activision’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is next on the table. COD is always a big deal because of it’s explosive campaign and endlessly entertaining multiplayer. Fan-made trailers aplenty, but some ideas for new locations across the world where Modern Warfare 4 could take place would be welcome…

#1. Grand Theft Auto V

Info: Grand Theft Auto V Analysis
Buy It: Pre-order Grand Theft Auto V
Sales Previous Game: 25+ Million
Release Date: May 14, 2013 (estimate)
System: Xbox 360, PS3; PC & Wii U being considered
Developer: Rockstar North
Genre: Action-Adventure, Sandbox, Third-Person Shooter

Why Play It?: GTA 5′s sandbox scale has been said to be “vast”, this is likely an understatement. We’re promised an “breathtaking entertainment experience” and “the largest and the most ambitious game Rockstar has yet created”. With a story set in a modern-day setting told by three different protagonists — and hookers just waiting to be run over (bad joke, I know) — fans have a lot to be excited about with the series returning to San Andreas and its surrounding areas.
