While rolling through enemy territory, the grinning boulder in Rock of Ages can grab powerups to set buildings ablaze.

Ace Team reveal why they went with 3D art assets for Rock of Ages, as opposed to 2D sprites.

Which game has elephants, a mini-art history lesson, and a boulder ready to crush anything in its path? Rock of Ages, of course, and it’s one of Atlus’ quirky digital download games.

With a grinning boulder chasing helpless paperfolk, Rock of Ages is one of Atlus’ more visually striking games. Carlos Bordeau, founder of ACE Team, explains Monty Python cartoons inspired the look.

As part of XBLA deals of the week, Zeno Clash is down to $10 from the usual $15.

While you might know Atlus for Social Links, Rock of Ages is all about being unsociable.

At least, that’s what we can glean from Atlus’s banners at E3.

For those who haven’t heard of it, Zeno Clash is a first-person brawler that runs on the Source engine, as odd as that sounds.

In our Zeno Clash: Ultimate Edition interview, we asked ACE Team how Zeno Clash got started and how they got together with Atlus.

Zeno Clash is a first person beat ‘em up sort of like Namco’s Breakdown, but with strange looking monsters.
