Another Episode For Marvel Vs. Capcom 3

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 21st of December 2010 - 05:36 PM ]

I've always been under the impression that Episodes had to have some kind of link between the stories. You know, one ends and then the next picks up where that one left off thus continuing the circle of life. So to speak. It seems that Capcom has forgotten that part of things when titling the latest story trailer for Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. The last clip left us with a fight between a slew of heroes fighting Doom and Super Skrull. Read More…

Bulletstorm Will Help Sate That Gears Of War 3 Need

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 20th of December 2010 - 06:14 PM ]

No I'm not saying that Bulletstorm is going to be the stop gap in the need for Gears Of War 3. It will however score you a slot in the GoW3 beta. Well at least if you preorder the "Epic Edition" of Bulletstorm that is coming to the XBox 360. There is no price difference for the "Epic Edition" from any standard price for a new title ($59.99) but there are a few extras outside of the Gears beta. Those being 25,000 experience points and visual upgrades for the iconic leash, deadly Peace Maker Carbine, boots and armor for online play. Read More…

The VGAs Tried To Augment Our Reality. How'd They Do?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 16th of December 2010 - 10:19 PM ]

So being as the VGAs have kind of moved away from being an awards show and are now just another way to sell ad space for gaming companies, you would think they would try to do something to bring gamers' interest back. Am I right? I mean you had the Brütal Legend hour-long ad when Jack Black hosted in 2008. In 2009, the biggest thing I remember was the teaser for Batman: Arkham City and a small attempt to get Samuel L. Jackson linked back into the show. Read More…

Review: Splatterhouse

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 16th of December 2010 - 12:20 AM ]

After almost two decades since the last Splatterhouse game released on the Sega Genesis, we finally received a reboot of sorts. Well, it's more along the lines of a retelling - backed by the power of the new technology we only dreamt of way back then. No longer stuck in the basics of side scrolling, we now get to take Rick on a fully 3D roaming adventure. Don't fret though; there are plenty of throwbacks to the original for fans of the franchise to cherish. The story goes as thus: Rick and his girlfriend, Jen, are heading to the creepy mansion of Dr. Read More…

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Trailer AT VGA's

by Corey Dockendorf [ Monday, 13th of December 2010 - 09:22 PM ]

This weekend Bethesda revealed their latest endeavor with a new Elder Scrolls series during the Spike TV VGA's. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the long awaited sequel to Oblivion. The teaser doesn't give us much except for a little bit of story and some awesome stone wall which comes to life. If you want to take a full look at the wall check out the Skyrim teaser site. Skyrim also brings with it new technology, a new graphics/game play engine actually. Bethesda has announced that this time around they will be using a custom built game engine that will be more powerful than the previous Gamebryo engine which brought us Oblivion, Morrowind, and Fallout 3.

Mass Effect 3 Announced At VGA's

by Corey Dockendorf [ Monday, 13th of December 2010 - 05:31 PM ]

Well I think we all saw this coming. Mass Effect 3 revealed its debut trailer at the Spike TV VGA show this weekend. This was by far one of the most anticipated announcements for the VGA's, with BioWare running a Facebook and Twitter campaign leading up to its debut. Mass Effect 3 is slated for a holiday 2011 release, but as we all know that can change. This is the final chapter in the Mass Effect trilogy, focusing on Commander Shepard and his battle against the Reapers, except this time they've decided to hit home and invade planet Earth! We've all seen this formula before (*cough* Halo *cough*) but hopefully BioWare will be able to add its own flare on an already used up storyline. Read More…

Batman To Take On The Military In Arkham City

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 11th of December 2010 - 12:03 AM ]

At least that is the impression the below teaser for Batman: Arkham City is giving off. Unless some super villain inside has their gang always dress up like someone from a Tom Clancy novel. Something that would seem odd but I guess the people over at Rocksteady Games could find a way to make it work with DC's approval. But this is only one thing that caught my eye here. What caught my eye is the graphics here. Read More…

OnLive Now Giving Us Another Way To Be Voyeurs

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 10th of December 2010 - 09:47 PM ]

Raise your hand if you are a glutton for pain and torment. Also if you are a fan of being teased by others playing games while you are stuck somewhere you can't. I know my hand is staying down. But there is good news for you out there that are a fan of strip clubs and being teased. Just released on the iPad and Android Tablet is a way live spectate of any of the OnLive game sessions from around the world. That way of course being a new mobile app that is ready for download and does not, I repeat does not, require jail breaking to run the full-featured Flash, Silverlight and Windows 7 application. Just took Cloud computing to get Flash on an Apple product it seems. Read More…

Keeping An Eye On Deus Ex

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 10th of December 2010 - 05:39 PM ]

Let the "viral" marketing begin for Deus Ex: Human Revolution with a fun new website showcasing some of the great augmentations Sarif Industries will be offering up to everyone, Adam included. Not only that, but a lot of other interesting facts can be found by "Hacking" the system. If only the careers section worked. I'd totally be down for some R&D. But I digress. Read More…

Ghost Busters Heading Even Deeper Into A Sanctum Of Slime

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 9th of December 2010 - 10:26 PM ]

Last Week we brought you the first look at the new Ghost Busters game that is being produced for spring 2011. Let's just say they were a bit unimpressive. In fact mixed with the news that none of the original cast where attached to the project, there is a lot of doubt cast on Sanctum Of Slime. I mean they turned the Ecto-3 into a fucking hummer for the game. You can totally see it in the larger images and video below. Now to my hopes. Read More…

Been Deceived About Uncharted 3? We Got Info For You.

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 9th of December 2010 - 07:16 PM ]

With how the Uncharted franchise boomed and wowed us gamers is it really shocking that a third game is coming? Not at all. Especially since the sequel did something that is relatively not done in entertainment. That is being better than the original. Now it is time to see if Naughty Dog can again out do themselves in making an awesome game. If we are lucky, we might get to see some impressive things during this weekend's Video Game Awards on Spike TV. Submitted for panties to start bunching are a few screen shots, box art, concept art and a teaser for the teaser that is going to be shown during the awards show. Read More…

A New Loock At L.A. Noire

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 9th of December 2010 - 05:07 PM ]

More like four new looks at L.A. Noire for your viewing pleasure. All with a little bit of history mixed in. Like did you know that 1947 was the most violent year in L.A.'s history? Or that it was alright for Lester The Molester to group dead bodies as long as the window was open to any and all voyeurs out there? My personal favorite is the fact that "Talk To The Hand" was coined way back in those days by a flatfoot defending a lone barricade. Isn't history fun and exciting? Read More…
