Another Episode For Marvel Vs. Capcom 3
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 21st of December 2010 - 05:36 PM ]
I've always been under the impression that Episodes had to have some kind of link between the stories. You know, one ends and then the next picks up where that one left off thus continuing the circle of life. So to speak. It seems that Capcom has forgotten that part of things when titling the latest story trailer for Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. The last clip left us with a fight between a slew of heroes fighting Doom and Super Skrull. Read More...

The VGAs Tried To Augment Our Reality. How'd They Do?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 16th of December 2010 - 10:19 PM ]
So being as the VGAs have kind of moved away from being an awards show and are now just another way to sell ad space for gaming companies, you would think they would try to do something to bring gamers' interest back. Am I right? I mean you had the Brütal Legend hour-long ad when Jack Black hosted in 2008. In 2009, the biggest thing I remember was the teaser for Batman: Arkham City and a small attempt to get Samuel L. Jackson linked back into the show. Read More...

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Trailer AT VGA's
by Corey Dockendorf [ Monday, 13th of December 2010 - 09:22 PM ]
This weekend Bethesda revealed their latest endeavor with a new Elder Scrolls series during the Spike TV VGA's. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the long awaited sequel to Oblivion. The teaser doesn't give us much except for a little bit of story and some awesome stone wall which comes to life. If you want to take a full look at the wall check out the Skyrim teaser site. Skyrim also brings with it new technology, a new graphics/game play engine actually. Bethesda has announced that this time around they will be using a custom built game engine that will be more powerful than the previous Gamebryo engine which brought us Oblivion, Morrowind, and Fallout 3.

Mass Effect 3 Announced At VGA's
by Corey Dockendorf [ Monday, 13th of December 2010 - 05:31 PM ]
Well I think we all saw this coming. Mass Effect 3 revealed its debut trailer at the Spike TV VGA show this weekend. This was by far one of the most anticipated announcements for the VGA's, with BioWare running a Facebook and Twitter campaign leading up to its debut. Mass Effect 3 is slated for a holiday 2011 release, but as we all know that can change. This is the final chapter in the Mass Effect trilogy, focusing on Commander Shepard and his battle against the Reapers, except this time they've decided to hit home and invade planet Earth! We've all seen this formula before (*cough* Halo *cough*) but hopefully BioWare will be able to add its own flare on an already used up storyline. Read More...

Been Deceived About Uncharted 3? We Got Info For You.
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 9th of December 2010 - 07:16 PM ]
With how the Uncharted franchise boomed and wowed us gamers is it really shocking that a third game is coming? Not at all. Especially since the sequel did something that is relatively not done in entertainment. That is being better than the original. Now it is time to see if Naughty Dog can again out do themselves in making an awesome game. If we are lucky, we might get to see some impressive things during this weekend's Video Game Awards on Spike TV. Submitted for panties to start bunching are a few screen shots, box art, concept art and a teaser for the teaser that is going to be shown during the awards show. Read More...

PSN Is Becoming A Real World Of Warcraft?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 7th of December 2010 - 07:46 PM ]
I saw this coming since they announced it. Looks like the exclusive, for now, PlayStation Rewards Program is going to start adding "Quests" into the mix of ways to increase to the next tier of rewards. Yep, you will be able to get those awesome yellow question marks off the website or however you are able to check you progress. Then you can perform the task and turn it in for a little more of whatever they are calling XP for this. I don't know why they called this "Quests" when "Real World PSN Trophies" would have suited it better. Read More...

Shocking News! Thor's Film Actors To Voice Thor Video Game
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 6th of December 2010 - 05:17 PM ]
This just in! The guys who are playing Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Loki (Tom Hilddleston) are going to be voicing the characters in the game too. Not only that, but their likenesses will be used for the character models as well. Holy Fucking Shit Balls! I never would have guessed this in a bazillion years. Words cannot describe how fucking shocked I am. And that kiddies… is what we in the biz call sarcasm. Read More...

Review: Call Of Duty: Black Ops
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 1st of December 2010 - 09:21 PM ]
We've been through WWII and up to Modern Warfare so now it is time to tackle two "wars" that seem to be glanced over by most FPS franchises. Yea, Call of Duty: Black Ops places us deep in the mix of the Vietnam War and the Bay Of Pigs Invasion all in another attempt to stop the Russians from destroying the U.S. This time they are trying it through chemical warfare and biological warfare.

Review: DJ Hero 2
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 18th of November 2010 - 07:50 PM ]
Here we go with another rhythm game coming into the mix of things. Pun totally intended. The game this time is DJ Hero 2. The follow up and expansion on from last year's DJ Hero that let gamers hop into the world of "professional" DJing. Like every other title in the rhythm genre there are some new additions outside of the core track list. Some good, some not so good and some just kind of "What The F**k?" Let me break it all down for you and let you know if you should actually pick up a copy of DJ Hero 2. Read More...

BioWare Teases New Title For VGA's *UPDATED 12.06*
by Corey Dockendorf [ Wednesday, 17th of November 2010 - 04:27 PM ]
Well it looks like BioWare is at it again. According to a recent commercial spot for the Spike TV VGA's on Dec 11th, BioWare will be announcing their next big thing. What is it? Well we currently have no idea. I can tell you one thing it's not Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Why is that you ask? Well the picture below which, was posted on numerous official BioWare Twitter accounts, gives me a more Mass Effect feel. Possibly Mass Effect 3? Read More...

APB Finds A Buyer And Re-Launching In 2011
by Corey Dockendorf [ Tuesday, 16th of November 2010 - 06:12 PM ]
Two months ago the company known as Realtime Worlds announced that the First-Person-Shooter-MMO All Points Bulletin was shutting down, and being laid to rest. Many people fought to get their money back, and EA was pretty cool about the whole thing. Not knowing if it would ever be revived, rumors started flying that companies around the globe were looking at buying APB and its fate was held in the balance. Well it looks like the California based GamersFirst and its subsidiary company Reloaded will resurrect APB early next year. The question stands, will it have a better launch than it did its first time around? Read More...

It's On Like Donkey Kong... You'll Have To Pay To Use It
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 12th of November 2010 - 04:24 PM ]
What do I mean by that? Well it looks like Nintendo has filed with the U.S. Patent&Trademark Office to actually trademark the phrase "It's On Like Donkey Kong." Yea… All because of the new Donkey Kong game coming out for the Wii here in the coming weeks. It's like they see people using that phrase more in all forms of media because they are cashing in on gamer nostalgia again. It only took them almost 30 years to actually do this. Honestly, what do they plan on getting from this? Read More...

Review: Rock Band 3 [Gamer Version]
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 26th of October 2010 - 08:53 PM ]
So here we go again. Another rhythm game comes to the market, only this time it is one that is truly trying to innovate the genre. I am talking in more ways than just trying to add new ways to play songs in the way of four guitars or adding challenges to earn more points and "stars." Though we already knew that Rock Band 3 was adding in a new instrument and a "Learn To Play Real Instruments" mode, it's how they went about it that changes the genre. This of course makes Rock Band 3 more than just another game. Being that there is so much going on with Rock Band 3, I've decided to break it up into two reviews. Read More...
