E3 2013 Hands On: Bayonetta 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 26th of June 2013 - 09:46 PM ]

If ever there was a title that would make me actually purchase a WiiU, Bayonetta 2 would be that title. After getting to toil around with the latest build of the game, it makes me sad that I will most likely have to wait some time to actually get to play it proper. But that is me and the tens of WiiU owners out there; here is a little more information on why you should be picking up the game next year and why all of the non-WiiU owners will be jealous. This was my first time playing a real game with the WiiU controller and I was a bit worried as all of the tech/non-tech demos I've played were designed specifically with the controller in mind. Bayonetta originally wasn't so I was expecting it to be a bit on the rough side in terms of controls. Read More...

E3 2013 Impression: The Evil Within

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 21st of June 2013 - 05:52 PM ]

I would be lying if I said that The Evil Within wasn't the biggest reason for me to go to E3 this year. Between TEW and Murdered I could have left fulfilled early. Even though I didn't get my hands on the game, I was overly impressed with what we were shown during the closed door demo. Here's a bit more on what got my jaw to drop and people screaming in the room. If you are a fan of Resident Evil 4 then you might as well already through your money at TEW. All of the game play mechanics, camera tricks, and scenarios that made RE4 and amazing game look to be what was used as the base for this game. Read More...

E3 2013 Hands On: Batman: Arkham Origins

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 20th of June 2013 - 11:39 PM ]

I have been filled with all kinds of mixed emotions since the announcement of Batman: Arkham Origins. I am a huge fan of the franchise and storyline of the game's world. I am not a fan of most prequels and unfortunately Arkham Origins falls into the prequel world. Usually prequels just feel like the developers wanted to do another title in the franchise but have been written into a corner or need to find a reason to explain why the protagonist is weaker compared to where fans left them. Fortunately for myself, I was granted access to the elusive "behind doors playable demo" of E3 and had a chance to play around with the younger version of Batman. Let me pour out my feelings on this now. Read More...

E3 2013 Impression: South Park: The Stick Of Truth

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 17th of June 2013 - 11:35 PM ]

With the fall of the mighty THQ and the purchasing of South Park: The Stick Of Truth by Ubisoft, all of us have been questioning what may or may not change in the final product. Especially since Ubisoft has it's hearts with the French and the Canadians and the minds behind South Park love to tear them apart. With questions like that and a huge interest in the game, I took a seat and watched what Obsidian had to show us at E3 after the great publisher swap. Granted, some of these might not be additions or substitutions due to the swap, but it was all shown during the demo I was graced with. Read More...

E3 2013 Impression: Murdered: Soul Suspect

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 17th of June 2013 - 08:16 PM ]

If there was one title I was overly excited to check out at E3 this year it was Murdered: Soul Suspect. Just the basic announcement by its self gave quite a few reasons why it could be an amazing new IP, but I got to actually sit down and check out a bit more of the game than has been shown. Here's a bit of what I am sure we will all be able to see here in the not too distant future. As has been mentioned in the announcement, we get to play as Ronan O'Connor who used to be an investigator in Salem, Massachusetts with a shady past. In what seems like an attempt to not force an exact belief structure, Ronan gets dropped in The Dusk (Ghost realm) that is a bridge between the land of the living and whatever is the "next.

Review: Rush Bros.

by Kenton Winkfield [ Saturday, 8th of June 2013 - 04:50 PM ]

I always enjoy listening to music when I play games. But not many games actually utilize the ability to use your own soundtrack in the game. You have Audio Surf or Beat Hazard which are directly influenced by your music but not enough games take this idea and run with it. We have another game to add to the list now. From brand new Indie developer and publisher XYLA Entertainment in collaboration with Digital Tribe Games, makers of such games as Velvet Assassin, Kung Fu Strike, and others, comes a brand new musical 2D racing platformer called Rush Bros. Rush Bros. Read More...

Here's The Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 Trailer Outside Of The PrE3 Event

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 8th of June 2013 - 02:54 PM ]

Yesterday we got a look at what Konami and its developers are bringing to E3. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 being one of the larger titles talked about and shown off. Amongst all the PR hype and a dumb looking Mega64 parody we got a nice 6 minute trailer showing the game in action. Knowing what we gamers want it would seem that Konami has clipped the trailer out and supplied it for all of our viewing pleasure. Here it is without all the other BS around it. In case you were interested in the new features/advancements since LoS, here they are in a nut shell or you can wade through the whole event video. Read More...

Here Are A Few New Screenshots Of The Evil Within, But No New Info

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 7th of June 2013 - 08:20 PM ]

Talk about being tight lipped. While most other larger titles are getting new trailers and information spewed all over the internet leading up to E3 it looks like The Evil Within is holding back. Well holding back a bit as you will see a few "new" screenshots below but nothing new to add to the overall game. This could be to try and blow everyone's minds at E3 though as TEW is one of the main titles that Bethesda is showcasing. At least that is my hopes. Read More...

Check Out The Insane Wolfenstein: The New Order E3 Trailer Right Now

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 7th of June 2013 - 03:36 PM ]

By now we all know the premise behind Wolfenstein: The New Order. The Nazis got the bomb first and ended up winning WWII because of it and William "B.J." Blazkowicz, AKA you, are given the orders to try and take down the Nazi powers that be. Standard affair if I do say so myself outside of the super tech that the Nazis have at their disposal. Wouldn't it be fun to step away from that "standard affair" and have a look at what could have been if this was true history? In the below trailer that is just what Machine Games and Bethesda have done. Read More...

Murdered: Soul Suspect Officially Announced And It Looks Spectacular

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 6th of June 2013 - 08:53 PM ]

Way back in February we got a nice little teaser for Murdered: Soul Suspect. It left quite a bit to the imagination and then we heard bupkis. That is until now with the following trailer and tease for what will be shown next week at E3. I have to say it wasn't what my imagination went with but it looks downright awesome, even if it is mostly a pre-rendered trailer. Take a look and I'll fill you in on a few other details about the game that have been released so far. Amazing right? Read More...

Miss The Konami PrE3 2013 Show? We Have It Here For You

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 6th of June 2013 - 06:01 PM ]

Even though we are still days out from E3 week, Konami has taken it upon themselves to "go first" with the showcase of what they have coming in the next year. This isn't anything new for Konami and will probably stay the same for the coming years. The entire "event" went live at 10 am PST and as of this posting just about ended, but we have it in its entirety in case the real world had you pulled away from you computers. Here is a short over view but if you don't want spoilers go ahead and jump on down to the video. There were three big titles that were the main focus of the whole event, Pro Evolution Soccer, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2. Read More...

South Park: The Stick Of Truth Is Still Blasting Ass With The Best Of Them

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 6th of June 2013 - 03:24 PM ]

I am so glad to see that South Park: The Stick Of Truth is still moving forward and striving given the loss of the original publisher and completely missing the launch date. While Ubisoft did purchase the game during the great THQ fire sale, I was a bit worried that this was going to fall into development Tartarus or be so altered it wouldn't be what we were led to expect. From the looks of the below screen shots and the bit of new information we have here it sounds like it is going to be just what fans of the show should expect. What is it that I say we should expect?

It's About Time Plants Vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time Finds Time To Be Released

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 5th of June 2013 - 03:40 PM ]

If you are like me then you enjoyed and still enjoy Plants Vs. Zombies. Also if you were like me you probably got pretty stoked to hear that PopCap was in development of Plants Vs. Zombies 2. If you are still listed in the awesome kid's club here, then you have mostly likely jumped down the page to check out the official trailer for Plants Vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time. If not, then I thank you an implore you to check it out. Read More...

Batman: Arkham Origins Gets A New Trailer And Reveals

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 20th of May 2013 - 09:14 PM ]

Last week we got a pretty lackluster "teaser" for the upcoming Batman: Arkham Origins title still in the works at Warner Bros. Games Montreal. Granted it came along with a short time span before we were supposed to get a full trailer for the game. The wait is now over and the trailer has been released in its full five minute version. Unfortunately, it doesn't do much in the way of showing the actual game nor does it do much more than show a beautifully fully rendered fight scene. Don't get me wrong, I think the below "trailer" looks pretty cool but it is like saying the next WoW expansion is a trailer for the game. Read More...

The Brothers Rapture Show Us Another Slice Of Rapture

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 15th of May 2013 - 07:57 PM ]

It could be just me, but I'm pretty sure we would all love to see an amazing silver screen adaptation of BioShock. I'd like to think that we haven't yet because of worry that fans would not accept it unless it is top notch. So what do we get in the interim? Well if you haven't scrolled down yet, we get some pretty amazing short films produced by fans for the fans. The most recent one called The Brothers Rapture. The following short film follows the dark tale of two brothers who have moved to Rapture to escape some of their past hardships and to create art without hindrance. Read More...
