Minecraft We Sit Down And Review Minecraft: Story Mode — Assembly Required. This Is The Second Episode Of Telltale's Take On Mojang's Famed Franchise. Here's Our Review On How They Did That was a crazy turnaround time for this episode of Minecraft: Story Mode to be released. Usually it takes at least a month or two before Telltale Games is giving us another episode to whet our whistles and this time we all had a nice two week or so turn around. Kudos to them and I hope they keep pushing the Mojang inspired story out to us in the same manner. Until then though we get a nice look at Minecraft: Story Mode — Assembly Required as we dig into our continued review of this episodic franchise. Read More...

Metal Gear Solid V The November patch for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain brings a bunch of new updates but also the ability to bring a character back into Metal Gear Solid V to join the fight If you've played through most of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain by now then you most likely know what this is all about. If you have not then you may just want to bookmark this page as when you get to the section brought up you will first curse Kojima Productions and Konami for doing what they did then want to be able to fix it. Thankfully the fix to this issue a lot had with Metal Gear Solid V here has been quietly patched in the latest update for the game that just hit the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One version of the game.

Xbox One The list of games that will be backwards compatible for the Xbox One has been released just before the update that will allow them to be played on the Xbox One Back at E3 this year it was announced that the Xbox One was going to be getting backwards support for some of the games that a lot of people grew to love on the Xbox 360. It had to be one of the most shocking things that Microsoft had to show during the press conference and now on November 12th it looks like we are all getting the first 104 titles to make the jump and allow us all to recreate those nostalgic moments on the Xbox One. That is a much larger list than the original 18 that we had before isn't it? Read More...

Video Games A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games So much news in the world of video games here and so much more to come. I think we'll have a lot more as Blizzcon rolls out and we lead into the heavier part of the release season but it is a fickle industry. Especially when there are such great hidden gems like the Black Ops 3 Nightmare mode that was hidden from us all. That and the new Friday The 13th visuals that have just made their way into the world of video games here. Read More...

Guitar Hero Live We Sit Down And Review Guitar Hero Live. Things Have Been Changed Up Quite A Bit This Time Around To Make The Franchise Feel New; But Does It Pay Off? Here's Our Review Of Guitar Hero Live Looks like the rhythm game is trying to make a comeback and now we have the other main competitor in the way of Guitar Hero Live. This franchise is one of the ones that made the whole genre as popular as it has become over the years, even with its short hiatus, and FreeStyleGames is bringing it back to try and bring new life into the franchise. Not only is it a new game with, technically, new songs but Guitar Hero Live adds in a few new features and mechanics to said genre but do they help or hinder in the long run? Read More...

Friday The 13th A new video for Friday The 13th: The Game has been let loose with the intent of showing off the environments of Friday The 13th's Camp Crystal Lake We are heading into the final stretch of Friday The 13th: The Game getting its funding via the Kickstarter campaign it has. Just under $100K to go still and then Gun Media will be bringing us the basic version of Friday The 13th presumably without the bells and whistles in the stretch goals. All of this you should know and most likely expect to see Friday The 13th: The Game coming to a PS4, Xbox One, and PC near you sometime next year. Again I predict sometime around Halloween although May does have a Friday The 13th in the month and who could pass up that date to get the game out on? Read More...

Tomb Raider Two more Woman Vs Wild videos for Rise Of The Tomb Raider have been released so we can see all the ways we'll be the Tomb Raider in the game Looks like in all of the hullabaloo of last week we missed out on a new Rise Of The Tomb Raider Woman Vs. Wild video. That's okay though as it looks like as a reminder we have another new one here from Crystal Dynamics to help round out everything we need to know before we dive into Rise Of The Tomb Raider on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One on November 10th here. Well, not really everything as that would spoil quite a bit of the reason to actually play the game but we do get a nice over view of all of the Guerrilla Combat and tombs that Rise Of The Tomb Raider will have to offer us. The first video up here covers the three different ways to go into Rise Of The Tomb Raider's combat. Read More...

Friday The 13th A few new screenshots for Friday The 13th: The Game have been released to help drive funding and get a proper Friday The 13th video game again There are eleven days and just over $100k to go to see if the Friday The 13th video game that was recently proposed will get its funding on Kickstarter. I know I am watching patiently just as Gun Media most certainly is. There has already been a whole lot of work on the game before it officially became a Friday The 13th video game so they do have a bit to show already. Read More...

Video Games A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games That wraps up our Halloween week of video games here. With all of those additions to our favorite video games and all the news out of Paris Games Week it has been a bumpy ride here. We had Outlast 2's theme shown off and a release window. Destiny used the same old treats to entice players to stay playing instead of celebrating. We also had two reviews with Rock Band 4 and Tales From The Borderlands' season finale. Read More...

Tomb Raider The launch trailer for Rise Of The Tomb Raider has been released and now we get a good look at the new history of the Tomb Raider and the Croft clan November 10th is just around the corner, so to speak, and Rise Of The Tomb Raider is poised to hit the Xbox 360 and Xbox One then. It's been a fun media run with the game and we are only half done as we wait for Crystal Dynamics to get Rise Of The Tomb Raider ready for the PS4 and PC. Of course with the eminent launch of the game that means it is time for a launch trailer. You know you love them and they do usually nothing more in terms of game information but what is interesting is that this Rise Of The Tomb Raider trailer does seem to do a bit more. Read More...

Technomancer A new gameplay trailer for The Technomancer has been released and it gives quite a bit more detail on the mechanics used in The Technomancer's combat and skills Until now we've had very small and basic looks at The Technomancer and the gameplay it will house. It looks like it is shaping up to be an interesting action RPG for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC but we really need more substance to make a solid decision on how Spiders is bringing the game to light. Screenshots and basic descriptions are nice but we need more. Thankfully it looks like Focus Home Interactive felt the same way and not we have a nice new trailer for The Technomancer to get us all hyped for its release in "early 2016. Read More...

Minecraft Looks like the wait for Minecraft: Story Mode's second episode is over as it releases alongside the physical release of Minecraft: Story Mode It seems like not that long ago that we all got a good taste of Minecraft: Story Mode as the first episode of the season was digitally released for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC, and mobile devices. Wait… it wasn't that long ago and Telltale Games is now bringing us the second episode of Minecraft: Story Mode today. Well this week depending on which platform you are playing the game on but that doesn't get away from the fact that Minecraft: Story Mode has had one of the fastest turnaround times between episodes of any of the franchises the developer is working on.

Video Games A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games Well that wraps another great week in video games for us here. All kinds of news and review popped up this week for all of our favorite video games now didn't they? I mean this was a heavy Call Of Duty: Black Op 3 and Rise Of The Tomb Raider week but we did manage to squeeze out a few reviews for Blood Bowl II, Minecraft: Story Mode, and Skylanders SuperChargers too. And to think; that is only the tip of the iceberg now that we are in the heavy release season for all video games. So many more to come and so much more news to read for our favorite franchises in the world of video games. Read More...

Darksiders 2 The release trailer for the Darksiders 2: Deathinitive Edition has been released and now we can see all those upgraded Darksiders 2 visuals in action Next week is the big week as the Darksiders 2: Deathinitive Edition is going to be released and I couldn't be more excited for this. Up until now we have yet to see any solid gameplay with the updates that Gunfire Games has been able to make to Darksiders 2 so far but now we have a nice long trailer showing off all of those said updates and to get us even more hyped for it to hit the PS4 and Xbox One on October 27th. Such an amazing franchise and I hope the first Darksiders gets the same treatment and we get the ever-sought-after Darksiders 3. Anyways, up until now we have mainly had only screenshots to see for the Darksiders 2: Deathinitive Edition so this is a nice little treat here. Read More...
