Why Is Kratos Bringing Down The Gods In God Of War III?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 9th of March 2010 - 08:06 PM ]

With only one week from today (3/9/10) until the launching of God of War III closing in quickly, that doesn't give a lot of time if you decide to play through the story of the previous games again, whether you are a veteran - such as myself - or are new to the franchise. That is, unless you're willing to grind through it all in a weekend like I most likely will. Unfortunately, for those of you picking up the God of War Collection now for the first time, it will take you a bit longer than one short weekend to hammer through. Thankfully, Sony and Santa Monica Studios know this. Read More...

Top Heads of Infinity Ward Leave

by Michael Camacho [ Tuesday, 2nd of March 2010 - 11:07 PM ]

This morning many awoke to rumors quickly circulating the internet and news sites about prominent figures at Infinity Ward being fired by Activision, supposedly even with "bouncers" removing them from their offices. Patrick Klepek of G4's The Feed initially broke the possible story. The rumors began gaining credibility as Jason West's Linkedin page now stated he used to work for Infinity Ward and a Facebook status claimed unemployment. Activision finally confirmed the rumors late this afternoon/early evening. Jason West and Vince Zampella have both been let go from the developer. Read More...

God Of War III Could Not Look Better Here

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 27th of February 2010 - 03:19 AM ]

Just in case you missed the latest GT TV episode, let me give you a short highlight. It was filled with some of the most exquisite shots from God of War III and gameplay footage known to man currently. A true showing of how far the franchise has come and how powerful of a system that the PS3 truly can be. And we have all that proof for you below in four nice little clips from the show. Not only do they show off the scale, art, and true power of things, but they also have a few other exclusives mixed into the videos. Read More...

Kratos Just Ripped One Over God Of War III Trophies

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 26th of February 2010 - 03:40 AM ]

Here are the trophies in all of their God of War godly glory. Well at least half of them, as you can see from the list of 36 trophies below. So they are more the Public trophies of God of War III in the end. Which leads me to believe that like in the God of War Collection, you will get trophies for completing parts of the story and collecting required items for Kratos to enact his revenge. At least that can seem a safe assumption. One interesting thing about the list though is that they reused a few of the same names for similar trophies from before. Read More...

The Force Is Strong With George Lucas' Wallet

by Kevin [ Wednesday, 24th of February 2010 - 04:20 PM ]

For a game that many people wrote off for shoddy controls and questionable graphical quality, The Force Unleashed has reached the "sold seven million units worldwide" mark. The charm of the title was perhaps not that it was a new entry in the Star Wars canon, but that it was somewhat decent and not a BioWare title. For me, it was the combination of finally feeling in control of a being that was a serious Force-powerhouse and getting a fresh spin on what can sometimes be a very stale mythology. Lucasarts is not satisfied with this meager accomplishment and is already pushing forward on a sequel that is coming this year. Read More...

Warner Bros. Will Soon Be Bringing Batman To You

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 23rd of February 2010 - 10:37 PM ]

Batman has been a staple of the Warner Bros. company for a very long time. Live action films, animated series, and a few games have been brought to us from Warner directly in the past. Now it looks like that is going to change here real soon. Especially with the most recent new franchise, Arkham Asylum. A game originally handed out to another company, Rocksteady, to design, code and build. Which they did to an extent that it won a load of awards and shipped over three million copies. Read More...

God Of War III Brings The Chaos

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 12th of February 2010 - 08:54 PM ]

Consider my pants officially needing to be changed. Something you will be in agreement with once you check out the new God of War III trailer that just aired last night on Game Trailers TV. A trailer which we at AggroGamer are glad to give just below in case you missed it last night, or if you just want to watch it again, or show off to the rest of your friends. It is truly something as epic as the game it's self. While at first it may not look like there is anything that we have not already seen so far, this things is full of new looks and gameplay for us to enjoy. Read More...

Serve Cerberus For Free In Mass Effect 2

by Kevin [ Thursday, 11th of February 2010 - 07:02 PM ]

BioWare is continuing this trend of rapid-fire assault on the XBox Live and Games for Windows Marketplace by providing some brand new armor and weapons for the Normandy Band of Brothers (and sisters.. and krogan.. and asari..

Review: Mass Effect 2

by Michael Camacho [ Monday, 8th of February 2010 - 09:31 PM ]

*Disclaimer: If you have not played Mass Effect, then I urge you to play through it before reading this review, as it will contain some spoilers from the first game. After the original Mass Effect, Bioware had a tough job on their hands. They made an excellent game, but one that was hampered by complaints from the players. So during the two plus years since the original, Bioware has spent their time making the necessary changes. The final result is leaps and bounds ahead of the first. Read More...

Kratos' Fury To Quench Kratos' Rage

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 29th of January 2010 - 06:08 PM ]

When you have a red, hot rage against the gods like Kratos does, how are you suppose to quench it? A rage that is hotter than the deepest bowles of Tartarus hot. Well with the new Kratos Fury Slurpee being housed in your local Seven Eleven stores in the next week or so. Then you can probably enjoy this Blackberry and Lime flavored frozen delight all the way up until the launch of the game in March. At least that is how it was made to sound from Evan Brody, the Marketing Manager for Slurpee and Big Gulp Brands. To go a bit further for all of this, on each of the four different cups for this promotion there are codes you can input on Slurpee. Read More...
