A new gameplay mode for Skylanders Trap Team has been announced called the Kaos Doom Challenge and plays like a tower defense Just in case giving us the ability to use and play as the villains in Skylanders Trap Team wasn't enough, it looks like we are getting yet another mode to play the game in. No longer do we have just a fun little platformer game but now we are looking at a "tower defense" of sorts making its way into the game in the form of the Kaos Doom Challenge. There is something about that word and Kaos that I can't just seem to put my finger on…* Anyways, this new gameplay mode for Skylanders Trap Team looks to pit players and all of their Skylanders in a 100 wave of "doom" where enemies will be flooding the arena to take you down. Mixed in will be the "Mystery Box of Doom" that will unleash gigantic villains into the mix to ensure your ultimate doom. Read More...

Rockstar has given us the release date for Grand Theft Auto V for all of those platforms as well as the upgrades that will be coming along with that. That date is… Actually I am going to make you wait for that so you can see all of the cool things first. Or at least ignore all the new stuff for Grand Theft Auto V and scroll to the bottom of the page to see. Read More...

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...

A new gameplay trailer for Styx: Master Of Shadows has been released and focuses on the clone attack that Styx can employ We are coming up on the launch month for Styx: Master Of Shadows so it is time to see a bit more in depth on the special attacks and abilities that we will get to employ when we fire this bad boy up on our PS4, Xbox One, or PC. We've seen how Styx can get all Assassin's Creed-like in the past so it is time that we see how he uses his own personal "co-op" to get around the castles and dungeons. This time we get to see the clone attack/ability for Styx: Master Of Shadows. Read More...

The How Will You Survive video series continues for Alien Isolation showing off why guns don't solve everything in the game If you've been out of the loop then you may have missed that Sega and Creative Assembly have a nice little video series slowly coming out for Alien Isolation. The idea behind it all is how to survive in the world that the game takes place in. It is also a nice look at how not to play Alien Isolation as the actions taken by the player in these videos seem to always lead to the titular alien hunting them down and doing very bad things to them. This latest trailer is no exemption from the concept. Read More...

We now have a trailer for Resident Evil Revelations 2 from Capcom and it looks to show flashes of gameplay and cut scenes It didn't take to long for Capcom to give us what we all really wanted for Resident Evil Revelations 2, an actual trailer. Yesterday it was announced that Resident Evil Revelations 2 was going to be an episodic title to lead up to a physical release on the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC. There were also a few screen shots for the game in the mix but now we get to see them all in working order. We also get to see the evils of the Apple Watch that is strapped to poor Claire's arm… I'll let you get to the meat and potatoes here before we dig in and talk about what we just saw for Resident Evil Revelations 2.

Ubisoft has released a new gameplay video for Assassin's Creed Unity showing off the Heist Co-op mode Before when I made comments on Assassin's Creed Unity looking more Thief-like by the day, I was just goofing around. With the latest gameplay video for Assassin's Creed Unity it looks like I am more and more on par; the most recent video of course covering the new Heist Co-op play mode for the game. This makes it so you no longer need to be assassin's but are rewarded on how much better a thief you are than a killer. The bigger difference is that in Assassin's Creed Unity it looks like Ubisoft nailed the gameplay mechanics that were lacking in other's titles… Unlike the game that will no longer be mentioned, Assassin's Creed Unity's heist mode will pit players to traverse areas to attempt to steal some item from said area.

New details and screen shots for Resident Evil Revelations 2 have been released from Capcom and it looks like another episodic adventure So Resident Evil Revelations 2 was announced and a few bits of information about the game were spilled through various means but it looks like the horse's mouth, Capcom, has given us more than expected for this upcoming title. The biggest of all being that Resident Evil Revelations 2 will be continuing the episodic structure that we have all come to see in our zombie games. The only big difference here is that each new episode should only be about a week apart from each other. Read More...

A new Bethesda Underground video has been released showing off just how they got some of those gruesome sound effects for The Evil Within We already know that The Evil Within is going to have some amazing voice talents but there is so much more to the audio for a game like this than just famous voice overs. Flesh being torn, brains being stabbed, bones being crushed, and limbs being ripped also make the fear factor of a survival horror title. All kinds of gross and nasty things need to be recorded in the mix to make you really cringe at the scenes that you are watching or playing through. Read More...

A new Science Fiction MMO, Transverse, has been announced from Piranha Games, the makers of MechWarrior Online Just in time for the other Sci-Fi MMO to be released (Destiny) we have a new announcement from Piranha Games in the form of Transverse. The only difference here is that the MechWarrior Online developer aims to make Transverse a MMO from the beginning and before the nice little announcement trailer below was released. Isn't that nice and all? Making an MMO and labeling it an MMO from the beginning and not just cleverly marketing around it? Read More...

Also in that mix is the availability to get a DLC season pass so you won't have to miss out on any of that extra content.

Alien Isolation has gone gold and with that announcement Sega and Creative Assembly have given us a new trailer for the game It's always a good day when we can say that a game has gone gold and there are no more delays, which happens to be just the case for Alien Isolation. So far the alpha and beta builds of the game have handled amazingly as well as brought the horror back to the franchise. This is one of the few titles I am still looking forward to for the rest of this year so the golden announcement will make this October 7th such an amazing day. To go along with the announcement of Alien Isolation getting the little gold sticker, it looks like we are also going to have a bit of fun leading up to the release of the game with a new "trailer series" titled How Will You Survive? Read More...

Ubisoft has just announced a new collection of titles for the Assassin's Creed franchise titled the Birth Of A New World - The American Saga launch before the newer titles Just in case you didn't think you were going to get enough Assassin's Creed this year with Unity and Rogue launching in November it looks like there is another set of titles coming just weeks before the one-two punch of those titles. All on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC at that. This new addition to the franchise is Assassin's Creed: Birth Of A New World — The American Saga although it really isn't a fully new addition to the universe but a way to get caught up on all the lore and events leading up to Rogue/Unity.
