Today Harmonix gave us an update on next week's DLC. We have two new tracks from Foreigner, "I want to know what love is" and "Waiting for a girl like you", which is cool, everyone loves Foreigner. But what really stuck out was the third song, a song by the symphonic power metal band: Nightwish. With their song "Amaranth" off of their 2007 album "Dark Passion Play" This is the first Nightwish song to become available on any Rock Band or even Rock Band Network. Definitely an interesting track they picked, there are a lot of different styles of songs for Nightwish, mainly because they go through lead singers like water. This song featured the lovely Anette Olzon who replaced the original lead singer: Tarja Turunen. Read More...

Dishonored has always been shown to give the players as many options to play the game since it was first shown. There has never been any doubt that it can be a unique game play each time you take a run at a level. But I know personally I've wondered about how crazy you can get when you want to go in guns-a-blazing. Not to mention how in depth one can get by linking together powers and gear. We guess no more now, somewhat. Read More...

Before I get trolled for the title, it is a joke based on the title of the new Black Ops II trailer released on the official YouTube channel. It's titled Multiplayer Reveal trailer. Like we all didn't know or even assume that there was going to be a multiplayer aspect to the biggest shooter franchise in gaming. Not much of a reveal. Now for the serious part. Read More...

So the good news just keeps rolling in for Darksiders II. This time it revolves around those who have been fans since the first game. That is if you've played the first game then you will have access to two items from about the beginning of the new game. So that should be pretty much everyone who is picking up Darksiders II. I mean why would you play the sequel without playing the original? Anyways, these items are linked to your Achievements or Trophies for Darksiders so don't worry if you don't have that save file still either. Read More...

Remember the time when you placed a new game in your game console and you could expect an epic and memorable single player experience? I am among those gamers who remember having that full-blown experience with every new game that graced my console. As an old school gamer that owned all the major systems since the 90s I see a disturbing trend that could spell trouble for fans of single player games. The problem is that single player seems to be becoming extinct. It’s no secret that online multiplayer has became exceptionally popular among the current generation of gamers. Read More...

So in case you are some weird person who didn't play Darksiders and are looking forward to Darksiders II, we have a new video that kind of recaps a bit of the story so you can just skip ahead. It is an over simplification, but you can get the gist as well as get the overview of the new story. Of course not mention that you do get to see a bit more game play and other creatures of the game's world as well some old favorites. If you have a few, take the time to get caught up. I'll wait.

You have to love modern tech today and social media. While we have special events that showcase video games and have 'behind doors' demos, it is only a matter of time now before all of the masses get to see what we do at events like E3. Just like Metro earlier in the week, we have a view at what I got to see for Hitman: Absolution at E3. Just in case you didn't like reading everything I had to say. Just in case you don't want to go back and read everything from before, this demo shows the Streets Of Hope and some of the new unique game play for the new Hitman. Read More...

Over two years ago Naughty Bear hit consoles to a rather mediocre reception. I for one enjoyed the idea and concept but there was room for improvement. So I was a bit shocked to hear that there was another title in the franchise coming this year. Hopefully the team over at Behaviour Interactive has taken their time to polish up franchise a bit. Speaking of, why don't we take a look at the game play for the upcoming Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise? That should give us a good look to see if that is the case. Read More...

So not only is there a new game play trailer for Injustice: Gods Among Us, but there are also two new characters announced for the game. Nightwing and Cyborg are those characters just to get the ball started here. Here's another set of characters that will be interesting to see in the game but not as unexpected as Solomon Grundy as mentioned in a previous article. Cool none the less. What I do find a bit more fun in the game play below is the showcasing of what looks like "fatality" style moves being performed. Read More...

When first mentioned after announcement, the villain of Black Ops II was stated to be a "hacker" type who takes over a whole bunch of military tech. In the more recent video it looks like the people of the world are also a little bit to blame. Sitting happy and ingesting all of his propaganda as we do viral YouTube videos. I mean hells, with over 55 million people subbing this guy and over half a billion views, how could we all not be to blame? Right? Read More...

Jeremy McGrath's Offroad, developed by 2XL Games and published by Reverb (PS3) and D3publisher (360), plays like you would expect any offroad, rally or ATV game to play. It's smooth, it has some air control and it has competitive AI. That is where this game really ends with its current competition. Jeremy McGrath's Offroad has various unlocks as is expected in this day and age, like new vehicles and performance upgrades, however I couldn't find much reason to go after them. No motivation to keep playing despite this. Now don't get me wrong, the game is superbly crafted, no bugs at all as far as I could tell, beautiful graphics for an arcade title, the AI is smart and the controls top notch. Read More...

He's been featured in a few games and has mostly been used for cameos, but now the 'merc with a mouth' is finally getting his own shot at video game stardom. That's right, Deadpool has been officially announced and the game is coming. Don't fully believe it yet? Then go ahead and check out the announcement trailer that snuck in at the San Diego Comic Con last week. Hopefully that will prove more to you. Don't be too surprised with the lack of any real substance being shown here though. Read More...

It's summer block buster time again in the film industry which means it's also the time we see the video games that coincide with said block busters hitting the shelves. While Marvel missed out on a proper Avengers title, Beenox and Activision made sure that they didn't miss out on a new Spider-Man title. The pair have already churned out the last couple of rather decent titles for the franchise so why not one for the film. Let's see how their faired in a genre that is usually know for making slop that just milks the films for more money. Read More...

I started playing Ship Simulator Extremes with an open mind. Partly because I wasn't sure if this was going the pure Sim route with me only free riding a boat or the MS Flight route with a campaign and missions you can take. It took the latter with a campaign and various scenarios you can choose from the menu, alas the game is looking up, I think. I was wrong. So wrong. Read More...
