We Are Getting A Watch_Dogs 'Sequel' Already…In eBook Form
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 21st of April 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
Ubisoft has announced an eBook sequel story to the events of Watch_Dogs slated to come out around the game's launch. Watch_Dogs is still about a month out from launch and there is already a talk about a sequel to the game's story. This isn't another quick turnaround for another game in the new franchise but an eBook titled Watch_Dogs //n/Dark Clouds. Kind of an interesting way to go about it there but it does fit into Ubisoft's want for all IPs to be able to have a franchise built around it. From what has been stated so far don't expect it to be just a continuation of the story in Watch_Dogs the game but a whole new story in the same universe written by John Shirley. Read More...

Batman: Arkham Knight Gets A Bunch Of New-ish Screen Shots
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 18th of April 2014 - 07:01 PM ]
Another wave of in-game screen shots for Batman: Arkham Knight have hit the web. Some old, but mostly new. I think the headline here kind of says it all about this new batch of Batman: Arkham Knight screen shots. We have quite a few new visuals for the game and some old sans the watermarks that were forced due to Warner Bros. giving other sites 'exclusive' content. That is me just harshing on the "mainstream" media though so I'll get back to what you came here for; the awesome new screen shots for Batman: Arkham Knight. Read More...

Creating The Authentic Alien Universe For Alien Isolation
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 17th of April 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
A new developer diary for Alien Isolation has been released showing the care in creating the 70's Sci-Fi in a modern age. Let's mark this new developer diary for Alien Isolation a step in the right direction. At least in my book. Sega and Creative Assembly have just released a new dev diary showcasing how they are trying to stay true to the original limitations that the Alien films had for Alien Isolation. It is always funny to look back at older films and see how under advanced the future is supposed to be due to the real world tech at the times. For instance, Alien is supposed to be set around 2119 yet there are no crazy holograms or AR displays due to the limitations of the tech in the 70's. Read More...

A new trailer for Caffeine, a Sci-Fi Horror adventure, has been released to help with funding. As it would seem the case we are going to be looking at another smaller title, Caffeine, due to all of the focus elsewhere in the gaming industry today. Some of you may have heard about it. Some of you may not have. No matter the case, here is a new look at what Incandescent Imaging has been cooking up in the Unreal Engine 4 since the original Unreal 3 demo was released online. It looks like a lot has been done in the matter of a month and there is still more to go. Read More...

Cult County To Mess With Texas In Horror FPS Fashion
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 11th of April 2014 - 05:00 PM ]
Cult County, a survival horror FPS, has a new gameplay trailer to help with its Kickstarter Campaign. If you haven't heard of Cult County yet then it may be safe to assume that you don't spend your days looking at Kickstarter campaigns or new that doesn't come from the huge publishers. I just found out about it myself while trying to dig up some fun content for all of you six readers out there due to all of the big names being focused on PAX and all the fun there. The only drawback from having huge conventions is they blow their load in terms of news out the gate. Back on topic though. Read More...

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 10th of April 2014 - 09:00 PM ]
Ubisoft and NVIDIA have released a new trailer showing off how visually stunning Watch_Dogs will be on the PC.

It is a look at how Ubisoft and NVIDIA have 'teamed up' to give us the most visually stunning version of the game we can imagine.

Rumor No More — Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Is Happening
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 9th of April 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel has been officially announced by Gearbox and 2K Australia. Looks like all the rumors were true. Earlier this week there were rumors abound about a supposed Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. I personally poked at the rumor but as it would turn out some other press outlet just broke the embargo on the announcement. If this forced Gearbox's hand to make things official is still up to debate but none the less here we have Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. As mentioned before, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel takes place after Borderlands but before Borderlands 2. Read More...

Viscera Cleanup Detail Finally Lets Us Play The Most Thankless Job
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 7th of April 2014 - 09:00 PM ]
Viscera Cleanup Detail is now up on Steam. Time to clean up those messes made by the hero… I swear sometimes you little devs never cease to amaze me and Viscera Cleanup Detail is another to add to the pile. According to the Steam website Viscera Cleanup Detail is available to purchase for $7.99 right now. It has been in alpha and beta for some time from what I have found out after hearing about the game; something I am still a bit shocked on. Wait, you haven't heard about Viscera Cleanup Detail yet?

Watch_Dogs Wants To Show You Your Digital Shadow
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 7th of April 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
A new marketing campaign for Watch_Dogs has hit Facebook to show you how much can be gleaned from your account. Just in case you need something to tide you over until Watch_Dogs releases on May 27th, Ubisoft has just turned on its latest marketing fun for us all via a Facebook 'app'. In this case it is a Facebook app called Digital Shadow that is made to look like you are being tracked via your presence on Facebook. Granted this is something that can be done fairly easily due to the fact that most people forget that everything they do online in the real world can become public in the real world, but that is just social commentary mumbo jumbo I'll put aside for now. I personally gave it a whirl and was glad to see that if this were for real no one would truly be able to track me down based on the information I let lose into the virtual world. Read More...

Rumor Mill: A Borderlands In-Between-Quel Is In The Works?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 7th of April 2014 - 05:00 PM ]
New rumors have cropped up that there will be a Borderlands title to gap the five years between the games. Hey fans of Borderlands and Borderlands 2. Have you ever wondered what happened between both titles to take Handsome Jack the proper villain he is stated to be? Well if the new rumors from GamePointsNow are to be believed that is what e 2K Australia is cooking up for us with a Borderlands 2 prequel. I would argue that Borderlands would be the prequel to that game myself but for now we will use the name that is being reported Borderlands: The Pre-sequel. All go into the nuts and bolts of what is being claimed in a second for this Borderlands in-between-quel but wasn't 2K Australia supposed to not be the name used anymore? Read More...

Have A Look At What Will Be In The Watch_Dogs Vigilante Edition
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 4th of April 2014 - 05:00 PM ]
Just in case you needed another reason to pick up the Watch_Dogs Vigilante Edition here's a showcasing of the goods. As gamers we sure do love our collector's editions and the Watch_Dogs Vigilante Edition is yet another one to add to the list. For just a bit more that the basic asking price you can get a bunch of other real world and virtual world goodies. In the case of the Vigilante Edition it would replace a few items I have lost recently do to "act of dog" which would completely make it worth the extra money. If only it was possible to find it as a non-European exclusive to pre-order right now. Read More...
