We Now Get To Be The Zombie In Dying Light
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 2nd of October 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
It's just been announced that we are no longer limited to playing a survivor in Dying Light but we can be the zombie in the game This may be shocking news to most but not to me as now we can play as the zombie in Dying Light. It's not too shocking to me as this seems the way that most games that have a forced multiplayer aspect have been going as of late; especially when it comes to games that have a monster type hunting. None the less, Techland and Warner Bros. have made the announcement official and we will be able to play as one of the infected during Dying Light. Read More...

Dying Light Has A Shiny New Release Date
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 12th of September 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
The new release date for Dying Light has been announced and it is sooner than we all thought it might be I don't know about you but I was really let down that I wouldn't be able to play Dying Light this October. When it was delayed I could do nothing but question "why?" when the game looked polished enough when I saw it at all the past conventions. None the less it was claimed that Dying Light wasn't going to be hitting the PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, or PC until February of 2015. Such a huge delay and in the mix of all the Resident Evil fun that has already been announced to boot. Read More...

See How Natural The Movement Of Dying Light Truly Is
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 29th of August 2014 - 09:00 PM ]
A new developer diary for Dying Light has been released to lead into PAX Prime with and to show off the freedom of movement that the game allows for It's that time again to dig into the mechanics of another title and this time it is Dying Light's free movement and how it has evolved from the original design. Like for instance the fact that it was going to be simulated free movement at the beginning until the level design was too bogged down and still didn't feel fully free. I bet you didn't unless you jumped down to the Dying Light dev. Read More...

Four Player Co-Op Revealed For Dying Light In The Latest Trailer
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 7th of August 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
The latest trailer for Dying Light from Gamescom has confirmed the four player co-op for the game I'm a bit confused here with the latest from Dying Light as I thought that the co-op was one of the original selling points for the game. Now we have the latest Gamescom trailer for the game that is highlighting all of the accolades Dying Light has received thus far as well as how we will be playing the game in co-op. From the looks of it that will all be in an online form and not split screen with your buddy sitting right next to you. I miss those days sometimes. Read More...

See The Many Faces Of Death In The Dying Light E3 Trailer
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 4th of June 2014 - 05:03 PM ]
The E3 trailer for Dying Light has been released and it shows off a whole bunch of new zombies and ways to kill them Let the flood of new gameplay trailers for E3 begin with Dying Light. Fitting given the flood of zombies that are shown to be chasing you or being killed by you in the all new gameplay trailer for the game. Do take notice that I said 'all new' as well. In fact I don't think anything outside of the core mechanics of the gameplay have been reused to make this new trailer. Read More...

Sad News As Dying Light Has Been Delayed Until February 2015
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 9th of May 2014 - 07:00 PM ]
Dying Light has been pushed back a few months now to better improve core aspects of the game. I could have sworn that Dying Light looked to be nearing the end of its development road. Even back when I first saw the demo at E3 last year the game seriously looked like it could have made an October 2013 release date if Techland and Warner Bros. truly pushed. Obviously they did not and now it would seem that is a good thing as even under the normal development cycle has left things wanting. Read More...

Looks Like Dying Light Is Taking A Page From The Walking Dead
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 11th of February 2014 - 10:00 PM ]
There is a new trailer for Dying Light that focuses on the 'Human' element of the game and who the real monsters are… As has been seen multiple times over, Dying Light is mostly about free running and surviving the end of the world by zombies. There has always been the human element in the trailers and gameplay shown but now it looks like Dying Light is showing off how other NPC humans in the game are going to be as messed up as some of the greatest characters in The Walking Dead universe. Which is cool, but it kind of changes what I thought Dying Light was going to be all about. Mind you, not in a bad way but in some way. Read More...

Here Is An Extended Look At Dying Light's Gameplay
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 16th of August 2013 - 10:00 PM ]
It only took a few months, but the world has been gifted with what was for Dying Light behind doors back in June. Yes, I'm talking about the E3 press showing of the game. Although I do have to say that there are at least a few differences that I saw here that I didn't get to see before. One of which actually pin points one of the features. The feature I am talking about is the dynamic side missions. In the below video you will see a side mission with a little girl in a closet. Read More...

E3 2013 Impression: Dying Light
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 26th of June 2013 - 06:09 PM ]
Dying Light was one of the first games I got to sit in and watch at E3 and it was also one of the titles that really caught my attention leading up to the show. I completely enjoyed both of the Dead Island games and was interested to see how the FPS zombie genre was going to be changed as to make this a truly new IP for us gamers. Then I was a bit let down by essentially being shown Dead Island, with a few upgrades, mixed with the basics of Mirror's Edge. This isn't a horrible combination, but it doesn't really create anything completely new. Read More...

Is Dying Light A Capture The Flag/Parkour/Zombie Game?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 8th of June 2013 - 08:18 PM ]
Talk about another E3 trailer that is all CGI and no game play. A new trailer for Dying Light has just been released into the wild and it surprisingly shows no game play despite the fact that it will be on deck at the convention this year. What is interesting to note though is that even though there is no game play some of the events could point toward other aspects of the game than "survive the zombie uprising." Watch and enjoy the trailer and I'll throw out my speculations afterward. So we all know that Dying Light is going to have a free running aspect to the game. Read More...

Parkour And The Undead Is Becoming A Thing In Dying Light
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 28th of May 2013 - 03:43 PM ]
Looks like Techland doesn't want to stop bringing the FPS zombie games with just the Dead Island franchise. Just announced is their new IP Dying Light which, as you have guessed, is another first person zombie game in an island/jungle locale. Before we start calling them out for rehashing the same platform like other developers and franchises, let's see what they have new to offer so they can claim this as a completely new IP. As mentioned in the title, there is a "free running" mechanic in place for starters. There isn't much detail on it as Dying Light is still in the early announcement stages but what is known is that it will allow us freedom of movement throughout the vast environments. Read More...

Review: Dead Island: Riptide
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 23rd of April 2013 - 08:46 PM ]
Back in 2011 we were all introduced to the wonders that could be a Zombie RPG with Dead Island. Two years later now we get to see how everything has progressed story-wise and engine-wise with Dead Island: Riptide. Is it just another crappy sequel that seems to be all the rage, or does it stand out on its own? Continue on to see what I thought. Story We pick up with the "Immune Fab Four" directly after the events of Dead Island. Read More...

Dead Island: Riptide Tries The Tearjerker Again
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 20th of September 2012 - 04:40 PM ]
I am sure we all remember back when Dead Island was first announced and the trailer that came with it. I am sure you do. It had people welling up with tears over a fictional family that was on the island of Banoi when the outbreak happened. Seems that Dead Island: Riptide is taking its turn at trying to hit you in the gut just like before. Below you can see the new CGI trailer for Riptide. While not an announcement trailer, as it has been announced already, it is the first promotional video showcasing the horrors that may lay in wait for us in the game. Read More...

Do You Wonder What Ryder White Was Thinking In Dead Island?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 19th of January 2012 - 07:07 PM ]
If you are like me you might be curious on the motivations of antagonists in films and games. I mean not ever villain is like the Joker who just does messed up stuff for the sake of doing it. There is usually a motivation behind their actions. Well it looks like next month we all will get the chance to see what Ryder White had planned besides just trying to save his wife and self. According to the announcement the DLC, aptly titled Ryder White, will add several hours of game play where you will actually play as White. We will all know how it will end, but we will get more information on the overall story of Dead Island as well as what else was going on while the main four were doing their thing. Read More...
