There is a new tech demo that shows off an augmented reality system in the works call RoomAlive from Microsoft I remember not that long ago that Microsoft was using the Kinect to create a form of Augmented Reality in our living rooms. The project was called IllumiRoom for those who don't remember or have a strong Google-Fu. The idea behind it would be that by using the Kinect and a video projector you could expand out the screen of your game to add an extra level of immersion. The Kinect would 'scan' the area to get a digital mapping of your play space so that the projector could properly display no matter the contours or set up of anyone's living room or gaming space.

Three new developer diaries for The Evil Within have gone live from Bethesda and Tango Gameworks and this time they discuss their inspirations for the game, sound, and visuals Last week we had a good long view inside the minds behind The Evil Within. At least that was in the terms of the game's director and creator.

This time it is in the general inspirations from Shinji Mikami and all of the aspects of visual and audio design that is sure to scare our panties off when we dig into the game and not the team's brain.

A bunch of new screen shots for Sunset Overdrive have been released to show off some of the game's areas and story For all the grief, joking or not, that I have given Sunset Overdrive there is one thing I cannot deny; Sunset Overdrive looks like it is going to be one of a hellishly fun ride. That in itself sounds like a pun on the game but in all actuality Sunset Overdrive looks like the game most gamers and the internet has been wanting for years. Especially so after looking at the below screen shots that have been released from Insomniac Games and Microsoft for the Xbox One title. I am sure that your eyes have already glanced down and have begun slowly taking in the new looks at Sunset Overdrive. Read More...

The How Will You Survive Video Series Continues For Alien Isolation Showing Off Why Lighting Up Will Only Lead To You Getting Stomped Out Well it looks like things have just gone from bad to worse in the Alien Isolation "how not to play the game series" as now we are seeing blatant things most of gamers would never do in a game.

A new walk-though video for The Evil Within has been released showing you all of the tips and trick you'll need to use to survive As was to be assumed with The Evil Within only weeks out from launch, it looks like we have a "how to survive guide" to show us all the key features we will need to rely on to make it from start to finish.

The How Will You Survive Video Series Continues For Alien Isolation Showing Off How hiding and crowd control won't help you survive the game Looks like we have a few more ways on how to not play Alien Isolation here for our viewing pleasure to burn out the week we have until launch.

The larger difference here is that most of it is through interviews with Shinji and the development team instead of just showing off what is going on with the game's engine and design directions. None the less we all get a nice and interesting look at how the team over at Tango Gameworks is going to be trying to drive fear into all of our hearts here on October 14th. Read More...

We Sit Down And Review Anomaly 2 on the PS4. How does this little Real-Time Strategy/Tower Defense Game Fair? Watch and find out In the mix of all the AAA titles being released, announced, and talked about we had Anomaly 2 slip out onto the PS4 as a digital title. It is another title that looks to break the mold when it comes to genre as most still cannot define Anomaly 2 as a Tower Defense style game or a Real-Time Strategy title. In fact it has a mix of both play styles carrying the game on and into our gaming libraries; but should it enter yours? Lucky for you I had a chance to play Anomaly 2 through both in Campaign and Multiplayer modes of the game. Read More...
