Trailer Park 11/22/11

by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 22nd of November 2011 - 05:37 PM ]

Since last week's installment of Trailer Park was non-existent, I believe you guys are overdue for a new set of trailers. First up we have a new trailer for EA's SSX coming out on February 14th, 2012. The trailer shows off a lot of game play footage that looks just as insane and hilarious as previous installments, Doing the "Worm" on a snowboard and twirling around like a helicopter are just a couple of the nut job tricks showcased in the trailer. If you plan on pre-ordering SSX then I have some great news for you - pre-order bonuses! If you pre-order from Origin you will get Elise's "elite" snowboard along with a "bonus" boost. Read More...

Serious Sam 3 Hypefest

by Matt Waitt [ Wednesday, 14th of September 2011 - 04:05 PM ]

Well, Serious Sam 3: BFE comes out in about a month and I feel it is my duty as a gamer to spread a little hype about one of my favorite game franchises. Serious Sam 3 takes place before the first Serious Sam game, dropping you in the story right as Mental's unending legion of aliens attack Earth. Croteam, the guys behind the franchise never tried to do something they didn't think fit the "serious" formula: Run and Gun. Their slogan for the game sums up the entire Serious Sam franchise; "No Cover. All Man. Read More...

Valve's Steam Trading Feature Goes Live

by Corey Dockendorf [ Wednesday, 7th of September 2011 - 06:23 PM ]

Almost a month ago, Valve's Steam Service launched an open beta trading feature which allowed players to trade Gifts/in-game items among other Steam members. Well that service has officially gone live, and you are now free to trade your TF2 hats to all your Steam friends! That was a quick beta test! Steam members can now trade items from Spiral Knights, and Team Fortress 2 as well as gifts purchased (but unopened). Although these are the only games supported for item trading, Valve has said that "Portal 2 should be reasonably soon and we hope to have several third-party games in the next few months.

A Steam Powered Overhaul

by Corey Dockendorf [ Tuesday, 19th of July 2011 - 04:00 PM ]

Valve has announced that they will be doing a major overhaul of their popular Steam service. The new system will provide users with a number of new features to support and streamline the publishing process of digital downloads. This will require all new "all-new server and client code" but it will benefit the players in the end. "The maximum aggregate bandwidth of the system will be greater than the current system; this will help us satisfy spikes in demand when there’s a big release. We will also be able to send content from more places, to better serve people all around the globe. Read More...

Team Meat To Serve Up New Game

by Matt Waitt [ Friday, 1st of July 2011 - 01:02 PM ]

Are the blisters on your fingers almost fully healed? Did you finally get enough money to buy a new controller after breaking your previous one? Is your mind put back together from the insanity that is Super Meat Boy? If so, then I have some great news for you. The two-man army behind Team Meat have recently announced that they will be making a new game that is "ambitious, fun and more experimental." So you can loosen the grip on that controller now guys. Edmund McMillen, the co-founder of Team Meat, told Eurogamer. Read More...

Review: Portal 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 19th of April 2011 - 10:02 PM ]

So here we are again, apparently only a few months after the events of Portal (assumed from in-game interactions). Still trapped in Aperture Science. Still being tested. But importantly, Still Alive. Alive and needing a final escape from the insane AI running the facility that is now hell-bent on enacting revenge for what Chell did in the first game. Along the way making a few surprising friends to help your escape and mastery of all the Science that was going on. There is really no way to simplify the story without giving spoilers here.

Falling To Your Death Issue Has Been Solved In Portal 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 13th of April 2011 - 10:00 PM ]

Doesn't it bug you in games when non-supernatural heroes or villains can fall from hundreds of feet and survive without rhyme or reason? Or for that matter, falling 20 feet almost kills them out right. It is a mix between realism and game play that designers have to take into account. Do you forgo realism in a major way for game play sake or do you try to fake it? Mix in the ability to portal hundreds of feet into the air, sometimes on accident, and now you have a real issue. But it looks like minds behind Portal 2 have the solution. Read More...

Who Wouldn't Want Some New Portal 2 Screens?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 2nd of March 2011 - 07:02 PM ]

Am I right or am I right? With April seeming so far off, at least for me, I know I will take every little bit I can get for Portal 2 as it comes out. Even though they don't show all that much for the game that we haven't already been able to extrapolate. I mean this just shows some of the "tests" left for Chell to get through and nothing all that much more. I am digging the shot of Chell running from some kind of bot, doesn't look totally like GLaDOS to me, and the interesting concept of what looks like an underground water cooling system. I've heard that it is a hint at something for a new Half Life, but that is just speculation last I searched. Read More...

Boom Goes The Serious Sam 3 Announcemnet

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 1st of March 2011 - 11:02 PM ]

Hey Serious Sam fans! It looks like your wait is over for the third installment of the game. Serious Sam 3 has just been announced with a few screen shots of the game mixed in with the announcement. But who really cares about screen shots on their favorite game franchise that has only been in development for the last six or so years. Am I right? We want to get into the nitty gritty details and not how the game is going to look when you get it home. Read More...

A Couple That Portals Together Stays Together

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 14th of February 2011 - 11:59 PM ]

What better way to celebrate VD* than to have a fun little advertisement for Portal 2? I learned quite a few things from this little clip for Valentine's Day as well. Like that 54% of women are allergic to chocolate, flowers are filled with bees and that four out of five people are crushed to death by giant diamonds every day. That is insane and I never knew. All kidding aside, once again Valve shows their great sense of humor whilst celebrating a holiday that is just another excuse to have a holiday. Read More...

PS3 Player Can Portal Into PCs For Free

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 20th of January 2011 - 05:46 PM ]

Well here's an interesting little tidbit of news. Any gamer that purchases Portal 2 on the PlayStation 3 will get FREE access to play the game from their Steam client. Think like a digital copy that comes with most BluRay films nowadays. Oh, but wait, there is more. Not only do you get a "free" copy of the game for PC, and technically Mac, but the two systems will be able to communicate with each other to allow for co-op play between the PS3 and PC/Mac. By communicate I am not only talking for play, but you will be able to actually chat with the other player and I'm not talking by screaming really loud. In game chat for those who still didn't get it. Read More...

We Got To See A Hydra Use A Portal At CES

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 14th of January 2011 - 11:24 PM ]

At last year's CES we were introduced to a product called Sixense. It was a motion controller being made by one of the smaller companies Razor had under its wing. Sixense was a really cool device with A LOT of potential, but nothing seems to have happened over the last year. Well at least nothing all too public. While wandering the booths of CES the AggroGamer team happened upon the new design and updated controller in the wild. Something we almost missed out on as it has been give then new name of Hydra and an extremely different design. Read More...

Review: Poker Night At The Inventory

by Corey Dockendorf [ Friday, 3rd of December 2010 - 07:09 PM ]

The guys over at Telltale Games recently released a title called Poker Night At The Inventory, which pits you against some infamous characters from the gaming universe. It's an interesting deviation from your typical Telltale fare like Sam&Max and The Tales Of Monkey Island series. The title is $4.99 on Steam right now, so let's see how it holds up. The game starts in front of a door where you head down a secret elevator leading to an exclusive club: "The Inventory." Here you are greeted by the host who escorts you to a table in the back room for a poker tournament with The Heavy from Team Fortress 2, Strong Bad (nuff said), Tycho from Penny Arcade and Max from Sam&Max.
