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.

Another premium show for Guitar Hero Live has been revealed with Avenged Sevenfold taking the bill and letting us play a live concert in Guitar Hero Live For the most part it the title above kind of explains the news here for Guitar Hero Live and the latest Premium Show that has been added to the list. It looks like Avenged Sevenfold is getting another crack with an Activision title here as we will get to play the three song long set here in FreeStyleGames' title in way of a live concert. For those who don't know Guitar Hero Live's Premium Shows are special "shows" that will unlock during your gameplay and completing various in-game challenges. Read More...

There is a new Assassin's Creed fan site that not only is allowing you to interact with the developers but can also grant you access to special Assassin's Creed stuff Just in case you needed one more social site to keep you engaged with Assassin's Creed it looks like we get one more. This time in the form of Assassin's Creed Council that is kind of like a social sharing site that Ubisoft has set up for all fans of the franchise to share on. If you were thinking this is for Assassin's Creed Syndicate then you would be mistaken as that game already has its own site set up for fans to engage with and earn points toward in game items to add to your PS4, Xbox One, or PC experience that is coming here soon. Get it straight Assassin's Creed fans. Read More...

A few little tidbits of Kingdom Hearts III have been 'revealed' via an ex-designer and some details on the rumored Kingdom Hearts 2.9 Depending on how you like to look at your LinkedIn "leaks" we may have a few new bits for Kingdom Hearts III as well as the rumored Kingdom Hearts 2.9 that was once seen and then vanished from existence. Yes, it looks like someone over at Square Enix has updated their LinkedIn profile and let slip what they happened to have worked on for Kingdom Hearts III and mentioned they worked on Kingdom Hearts 2.9.

There have been ten more tracks added to the ever growing list of Guitar Hero Live songs that will be playable when Guitar Hero Live officially launches There is still over a month before Guitar Hero Live hits homes around the world. October 20th will creep up on us like a bad burrito and we'll be jamming out to all the songs that FreeStyleGames could cram into Guitar Hero Live's disc. Of course this will be expanded based on all of the other options Activision is forcing into Guitar Hero Live to make sure we have a well-rounded set list of songs but we'll focus completely on the disc list as that will be available for all who purchase Guitar Hero Live no matter what. At least that is the hope… With that said it looks like we have ten more tracks added into the list here for Guitar Hero Live. Read More...

A new gameplay video for Assassin's Creed Syndicate has been released and it shows off the well-crafted version of London we will experience in Assassin's Creed Syndicate You've been living under a rock if you didn't know that Assassin's Creed Syndicate was taking place in London until now. Maybe you have and maybe you haven't. That doesn't change the fact that we are getting a nice, new look at the London that Ubisoft has crafted for us in Assassin's Creed Syndicate. I'm not talking about just the "murder" locations that we've seen already in past gameplay but all of the living and breathing NPCs of Assassin's Creed Syndicate that will populate this London.

It has been announced that Deadpool will be making the leap from the PS3 and 360 to the PS4 and Xbox One this November bringing all of the Deadpool goodness with him Talk about a "remaster" of sorts coming out of nowhere as Deadpool is coming to the PS4 and Xbox One almost two years after it hit the PS3 and Xbox 360. This would be the High Moon Studios game that came out in 2013 that also had a lot of mixed reviews based on the titular character Deadpool. I am sure that Activision isn't doing this because of the most likely success of the Marvel franchise recently and the new film on the way. Read More...

The collector's edition for Rise Of The Tomb Raider has been revealed and it is pretty standard in the ways of collector’s editions goes Surprise, surprise. It looks like Rise Of The Tomb Raider is getting a Collector's Edition version of the game. Okay. Not really that big of a surprise here but up until now there has been no word from Square Enix on if there was going to be one or not. Hells, Crystal Dynamics has been pretty quiet on the whole thing but I am sure that is due to them trying to make Rise Of The Tomb Raider the game we want and need and not just a bland addition to the franchise. That is at least what I would like to think as it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside to think that as I'll most likely have another year to sit and wait for Rise Of The Tomb Raider to move from the Xbox 360 and Xbox One over to the PC and PS4.

A new video for Assassin's Creed Syndicate has been released that shows off Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens as well as more Assassin's Creed Syndicate pre-order bonuses If you've been following along with Assassin's Creed Syndicate then you most likely have heard about the Charles-es making a strong appearance in the game. These being Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens even though I'm not sure how they would feel about Ubisoft placing them on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC as we would have to speculate on dead human feelings. None the less they are coming and helping Jacob and Evie in Assassin's Creed Syndicate in their own ways and we've seen little bets of this before. Read More...

A stealthier version of the Rise Of The Tomb Raider demo that was shown off at Gamescom has been released to show combat doesn't have to be used in Rise Of The Tomb Raider If you were like me then you were most likely let down with the first showcase of Rise Of The Tomb Raider during Gamescom. It was claimed to be a stealth gameplay demo just for the show but there was a lot more combat mixed in and a lot less stealth than we should expect in Rise Of The Tomb Raider. It looks like Crystal Dynamics heard or read the outcry there as they have just released a new version of that "stealth" Rise Of The Tomb Raider gameplay footage only this time they really do mean stealth as Lara makes her way through the same area without trying to kill or injure a single person in Rise Of The Tomb Raider. Usually I am all about the killing to get rid of those pesky guards in games like Rise Of The Tomb Raider but that just has never been Lara's style before and more along the lines of Agent 47.

New gameplay for XCOM 2 has been released and it focuses on the strategy elements of XCOM 2 as well as living in a big ass ship You wanted more gameplay for XCOM 2. Well now you are getting more gameplay for XCOM 2. The only thing is that we are not getting the turn-based gameplay but the strategy stuff that Firaxis Games is taking great care into allowing us to micromanage every little aspect of XCOM 2 with. Just what all of us were looking for with the franchise as it moves on from its better titles and leave the crummier ones in the dust. XCOM fans can be so harsh it is kind of a surprise that 2K Games was going to take another chance but I guess they think they will appease all of you. Read More...

During the D23 expo it was announced that Kingdom Hearts III will be getting a land based on Big Hero 6 as well as the cast of characters to mix into the Kingdom Hearts universe If you have been holding out for some huge news for Kingdom Hearts III out of D23 then you are kind of in luck as we have some new news. Nothing in way of new gameplay or new features that Disney is going to have to share but it looks like we have another world to add to the announcement of Tangled. In this case it looks like Big Hero 6 is breaking its way into world of Kingdom Hearts and adding to the growing list. Read More...

A new gameplay video for Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 has been released to prep everyone for the Beta and it shows off the new movement mechanics in Black Ops 3 With the multiplayer beta for Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 almost here and only a few tidbits of what we will get to experience in it out as of now I'd say it is high time for something new. This is just what we are about to get although I am sure that this is not what fans holding out for the beta are hoping for as we now have a tutorial on the new modes of movement in Black Ops 3 from Treyarch. There is going to be a lot more than just running and jumping here so I guess we needed to have a full on tutorial showcasing it all instead of the maps and modes for the Black Ops 3 multiplayer beta.

PlayStation Sony has announced that the PlayStation Experience will be happening again only this time the PlayStation Experience will be in San Francisco Given the success of last year's PlayStation Experience it would be a bit daft to think that it wouldn't be making a huge comeback this year. For the uneducated this would be Sony's huge PlayStation "Fan Fest" of sorts to show off all their new and current IPs, hardware, and ideas coming to their platforms. Seeing as they didn't make a big push for anything sans the Morpheus at E3 and other conventions we can most likely expect the PlayStation Experience to only show off items for the PS3, PS4, PS Vita, and the like but who knows? Maybe Sony will have some kind of huge surprise just for this event here and no one but they know at this time. Read More...
