Get Enslaved By These New Screens And DLC Announcements

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 10th of September 2010 - 09:51 PM ]

As I said back at Gamescom, my interest was just starting to come around for Enslaved: Odyssey To The West after seeing the actual game footage there. It was something truly attention catching and these new screen and clips nail your eyes lids to the game while a 300 lbs. midget sits on the back of your head keeping your eyes focused on nothing but. (Read: I think it looks super keen.) While below you may only start out seeing screen shots of how the game will visually look, which is not too shabby, the video shows a bit of how the combat system will flow and how the game will play out.

Viva La Claptrap Revolution!

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 10th of September 2010 - 07:52 PM ]

Back in early August we mentioned the new DLC for Borderlands, Claptrap New Robot Revolution. It is bring a bunch of additions to the game, as we mentioned, as well as being included in the GOTY Edition, also mentioned. So what new do we have for you? Not a solid release date, but I'm willing to bet on 9/14, 9/21 or 9/28 if 2K and Gearbox want to keep their September time frame originally mentioned. It is, as you've most likely glanced already, a set of new screens and posters for the DLC. Nothing too revealing, but something to make you look at and give a thought about dropping the $9.

Portal 2 Co-Op Trailer Gets Extended

by Binh Nguyen [ Friday, 10th of September 2010 - 05:33 PM ]

I am sure we have seen the multitude of videos and screen shots of Portal 2 in the last few weeks. Yesterday Valve released the extended trailer for the co-op mode of Portal 2. Something that was shown at PAX Prime this past week at Seattle. It is worth a watch as it showcases that teamwork that is the only way to get pass certain levels. I'm not sure if they will include the high-five feature but it would be funny if you were able to self high-five yourself. My Take: I seriously cannot wait for Portal 2 to come out as I am a huge fan of the first one. Read More…

'New' View of Rock Band 3's Keyboards

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 10th of September 2010 - 03:13 PM ]

We are getting closer to the launch of Rock Band 3 every day. That is the way time works. It also seems with each passing day some new bit of news about the keyboard peripheral show up, or at least gets rehashed with the guise of being new. It's either that or the guys over at Harmonix don't think that we gamers really understand that the new keyboards are coming out and will change part of the way the game is played. Stating all of that, here is yet another video showcasing the new keyboards for Rock Band 3. This time with one of the developers giving you the run down. Read More…

Review: Mafia II

by Binh Nguyen [ Thursday, 9th of September 2010 - 11:24 PM ]

From the moment my character woke up in the world of Mafia II, I was swimming in rich ambiance. 2K Czech did everything to put you directly into the life of Vito Scaletta. Waking up in your boxers and 'wife-beater' shirt, your buddy Joe is calling you with your next 'job'. This gives you an immediate sense of who you are that really draws you into this character. This is further supported by great narration and a robust storyline, but that is only a part of what happens in Mafia II. Let's talk about everything else. Read More…

New inFAMOUS 2 Footage That Will Jolt The Senses

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 9th of September 2010 - 07:45 PM ]

Yes, that title is cheesy, but it was a quick way to let you know that the upcoming inFAMOUS 2 looks like it has gone leaps and bounds graphically from the first. From these screen shots and video it almost looks akin to the upgrades from Uncharted to Uncharted 2. For those of you who are a PlayStation nut or fan, you know that is a major upgrade. If not, Google the first inFAMOUS and then look at these new visuals. Now if only they could convey how well the game will play or how the game's story will be this time around. Read More…

Aggrocast Episode Seventy Eight: Keeping The Class Up

by Brian Bentley [ Thursday, 9th of September 2010 - 03:42 PM ]

Corey joins up with Brian and Binh again for another exciting and yet "classy" episode of the Aggrocast. The crew talks about what they have been playing - including Mafia II, Mushroom Wars, Persona 4 and going back old school with Dungeon Siege 2. This week the crew delves into the XBox Live price increase as well as the price drop of the Nintendo DSi. Then, Corey decides to play devil's advocate for Apple's newly announced GameCenter. Hilarity ensues when all three gentlemen dance around the PC/Mac debate once again. Read More…

Bring On The Stranger's Wrath To Oddworld

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 8th of September 2010 - 11:38 PM ]

Just about six years in the waiting, PlayStation owners will finally get their chance to play Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath. Not only play it, but play it the way we are told it should have been played all along: with 720p graphics and PlayStation Move support. Just the way I expected to play the game back in 2005 when Oddworld Inhabitants brought it to market on the XBox. I loved Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. I would probably love a collector's edition like the God of War Collection of all of the Oddworld Inhabitants titles, but that is a dream I would assume is way off in the future. Read More…

Learn Where The Plague Comes From in Dead Rising 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 8th of September 2010 - 08:38 PM ]

Dead Rising 2 is only a few weeks out from launch. Wouldn't it be nice to have a solid feel for what is going into the game? You already know the basics of the story, the characters you will encounter, the weapons you'll use as well as the multiplayer. Yea, it kind of would be nice to have it all in one nice little spot. Well at least in four different video spots, which are all shown below. I do wonder if they truly did build all the jury-rigged weapons in house to see if they would work or not as it is shown in the clip. Read More…

WCG Ultimate Gamer 2: Episode 3 - Clowning Around Ay?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 7th of September 2010 - 10:24 PM ]

We are now three episodes in and three contestants down. That also means it is time for AggroGamer's third recap/review of how Ultimate Gamer Season 2 is going. I feel obligated to keep you all informed in case you had something else going on. Let's stop gilding the lily and jump right in. "Disclaimer" I will make it no secret that I tried out for this season and was not selected due to XBox Live issues during game analysis. I was only able to connect for one of the sessions, and thus disqualified. Knowing that, please read these recaps as a reviewer's aspect and not a bitter gamer. Read More…

The Complete Epic Opening To Epic Mickey

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 7th of September 2010 - 07:29 PM ]

Earlier we brought you the first look at Epic Mickey's opening video. It was quite, for lack of a term that fits any better, epic as you could assume. A nice little showing of the in-game cut scenes, but what if there was a bit more that Disney wanted to show us above and beyond what was previously shown. Was there an extended cut of this clip that showed us everything from the start screen to the first portion of actual game play? You know there is given the title of this article and video you most likely skipped to before reading the text. Read More…

Dungeon Seige III Gameplay Trailer Released

by Corey Dockendorf [ Friday, 3rd of September 2010 - 11:39 PM ]

What a way to kick off the Labor Day weekend! With PAX currently going on, there's going to be a lot of great stuff coming out of the convention and the first thing we get to kick off this holiday weekend is the new Dungeon Siege III Game play Trailer from Square Enix and Obsidian Entertainment. I have now watched this trailer three times and I still don't know what to say. We see a warrior type character and a caster archetype showing off the hack 'n' slash style game play we've come to expect from this dungeon crawler. The character models to me scream Square Enix; their digital footprint is all over this game. Read More…

Time To Go Back To The Future

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 3rd of September 2010 - 03:42 PM ]

I think Telltale Games took the DeLorean the wrong way through the time stream. Instead of going back and making a huge game based off the franchise back in the late 80's and early 90's, they went forward and decided to make a game 20 years after the last film hit theaters. That is, if it somehow came out before the end of the year. That just seems like the wrong way to do things. What they did do right though is snagged one of the guys who wrote the scripts from the classic films and also grabbed the great Christopher Lloyd to actually voice Doc Brown. Read More…

Unleash The Rock Warrior Within With Guitar Hero

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 2nd of September 2010 - 08:38 PM ]

We all know by now that each of the characters in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock have an alter ego. If you don't, consider yourself informed now or ask yourself why you clicked into this article. For those of you that have a clue, we have a new look at ALL of the characters in the new game. How they all look, from concept to in game, what all of their abilities are and a nice in game look of what it is like when they will transform to help the Demigod of Rock. This is my first time seeing Austin, Casey and Judy here in all the transforming glory and I will say I am anxious to get my hands on Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock. I actually think that these three have to be my favorites in look, outside of Echo. Read More…

Batman Arkham City Covered In Blue Haze Too

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 1st of September 2010 - 08:14 PM ]

With the new iteration of the Batman: Arkham [Insert Location Here] franchise, a new look will emerge. The technology and graphics capability have been expanded on and it would be irresponsible for the developers over at Rocksteady to not utilize these changes. Even just textures and character models would generally be enough to satisfy the ever-expanding needs and wants of gamers. Well looking below, they are doing just that with Batman: Arkham City and its denizens. To be truly honest, the only character model/textures that look similar from Batman: Arkham Asylum would be that of the titular character. Read More…
