The next video in Fallout 4's S.P.E.C.I.A.L. video series has been released to show off how Perception will be used in Fallout 4 The second fun video for Fallout 4's S.P.E.C.I.A.L. video series has been released and give us a look into the Perception stat that we will be using to help survive the wastelands in the game. Bethesda gave us a look at Strength last week so Endurance is slated for next week so I am guessing that the assumption made before will ring true here. But this week is all about Perception in Fallout 4 and how that skill will keep you alive and prospering after the world has ended. Read More...

During the Tokyo Game Show Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 has been announced so those looking for a bridge for Kingdom Hearts 3 will have all of their prequel needs met It looks like we may have been a bit ahead of ourselves last week when we spoke of Kingdom Hearts 2.9 as during the Tokyo Game Show we just had Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 announced and on its way to the PS4. It does seem like a minor alteration to what was spoken of before but it looks like Square Enix is making sure that even more of us have the full-ish story just before Kingdom Hearts III hits shelves on the PS4 and Xbox One.

The famed killer, Jack The Ripper, will be stalking the streets of London in Assassin's Creed Syndicate just as many have already stated they could see happening in the game It should come as no big surprise that Jack the Ripper is now heading to Assassin's Creed Syndicate via DLC. This was something I speculated on way back when Ubisoft first announced Assassin's Creed Syndicate and the Victorian London setting but now we have a full confirmation that Jack will be stalking the London streets on our PS4, Xbox One, or PC via the Season Pass DLC that Assassin's Creed Syndicate already has lined up. Can you really have a game, film, or story set in that era without including Jack the Ripper in it? I don't think so… Details on the Jack the Ripper DLC for Assassin's Creed Syndicate as very sparse at this time as it has only been announced to be in the works during the Tokyo Games Show.

It looks like LEGO Dimensions is aiming for a truly immersive experience as many of the original voice actors are reprising roles for LEGO Dimensions If there is one thing I demand in my games like LEGO Dimensions it is authenticity. If there are two things I demand it would be that TT Games resurrected some of those dead actors to come back and reprise their roles in LEGO Dimensions. I don't care what kind of necromancy or time travel that would be needed but they have Warner Bros. money here so I am sure that they could do it. Read More...

Direct from the Dubai Games Expo comes a new character for Street Fighter V and his name is Rashid and he looks like he is a master of wind in Street Fighter V Add another character to the growing list of fighters in Street Fighter V. Not only another character but a whole new character to the franchise in the way of Rashid as he was debuted by Capcom during the most recent Games Expo in Dubai. Makes sense given the garb you see him sporting here in his reveal trailer as well as the theme he has in Street Fighter V. That seems a bit 'racist' when you say it but hey, I am not the one building this game for the PS4 and PC. Read More...

Have another look at SOMA's creatures and monsters that will be stalking the depths as we try not to lose our sanity with SOMA Get ready to live and breathe the horror that is SOMA as we have our first kind of look at the creatures that will be stalking us on September 22nd. We've seen a few before in other videos that Frictional Games has shown off but this one kind of takes the cake. At least in terms of setting the mood of SOMA and the horror it is trying to instill. If things pay off I can see SOMA replacing all that hype that Silent Hills had on the PS4 only this time on the PC as well. Read More...
