Games That Deserve Another Installment
by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 22nd of May 2012 - 06:08 PM ]
After playing Double Dragon Neon I thought to myself "What other games should come out with a sequel?" and alas I composed this list. I hope you agree with the gist of them, if not leave a comment down below. Zombies Ate My Neighbors (1993) A loveable run and gun zombie game that came out for the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo. Developed by LucasArts and published by Konami. Featuring over forty horrifyingly fun and difficult stages. Read More...

Review: Starhawk
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 21st of May 2012 - 10:10 PM ]
Starhawk has landed. From what I saw on all the social media sites, it must have been one of the most anticipated games to come to the PlayStation. One could kind of view it as a sequel to Warhawk, in spirit, but with a focus on single player this time out and not just multiplayer. Let's just jump right in and find out what I think of the game so you can decide to drop your money or not. The Story In the future humans start to move out into the galaxy and do what they do best, harvest natural resources and cause wars over energy. Only issue this time is that the main and most valuable source of energy, Rift Energy, also has the side effect of mutating humans into something worse. Read More...

Death Strikes Again With A New Darksiders II CGI Trailer
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 18th of May 2012 - 09:21 PM ]
Way back in March we got a nice little CGI trailer for Darksiders II. It was cool and beautiful, but it was only the first part of the promotional video. Lucky for us, below we have the next part of the clip which also leaves us wanting and waiting for the continuation of Death's badassitude. Yes it's a word. Deal with it. My only hope is that these kinds of clips will take over for the cut scenes in Darksiders II, at least for major scenes. Read More...

We Get Ambushed By The Latest 'The Last Of Us' Trailer
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 18th of May 2012 - 04:52 PM ]
I'll be honest; I have not been overly excited about The Last Of Us. Go ahead and read any of my stuff on the game. With the past trailers and screens it really just feels like another post apocalypse game. To go further, it feels like Naughty Dog has paid off other sites and journalists to hype the game more than they should. I'm talking specifically when they posted a picture of the enemies that everyone and their mother said was utterly disgusting. It really isn't to the point everyone was saying. Read More...

Diablocast Episode 1: The Beginning
by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 16th of May 2012 - 04:17 PM ]
Corey and Brian have at it in this first episode of the Diablocast. Another spoilerific venture from Aggrogamer.com, the Diablocast is 60 minutes of back and forth between "The Blizzard Fanboy" (aka Corey) and "The Diablo's Advocate" (aka Brian) on all things Diablo III. Basically, this episode spawned from a discussion between the two guys that began over text message that just happened to spill into a podcast. Sit back, enjoy and leave all your comments in the show notes below or email us at bbentley@aggrogamer.com. Read More...

Mercenary Ops Beta Opens
by Fred Buell [ Tuesday, 15th of May 2012 - 06:11 PM ]
Mercenary Ops; the new free-to-play 3rd person shooter MMO due out this Summer from Yingpei Games; is now accepting beta applicants. All you have to do is 'Like' their Facebook page and beta hopefuls will be selected and sent out beta codes for the promising game. Beta entrants will be allowed into the servers June 20th. I think Mercenary Ops looks great for being a F2P MMO and being based in the Unreal Engine 3 only helps. Customizable weapons and character perks put this along with other MMOs in terms of gear, but its co-op missions, boss fights and head to head style modes keep this game firmly secured in the world of shooters.

Review: Prototype 2
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 8th of May 2012 - 08:52 PM ]
It's been a long wait but Prototype 2 has finally landed to the enjoyment of all of us fans from the first game. It's not every game where you get to power bomb someone from atop some of the tallest buildings in the country but this is totally one of them. It has been three years in the works and there have been other titles out like it since, so does Prototype 2 hold up to the franchise's already well set bar. Let's find out. Story It's been fourteen months since the events of Prototype. Read More...

Multiplayer In My God Of War. Say What?!?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 4th of May 2012 - 10:12 PM ]
When it was first announced that God Of War: Ascension was going to be a prequel I was iffy and questioned the choice. Now it has been revealed during a press viewing that there is going to be that Multiplayer teased and rumored since GoW3. Yea, that's right. In a game that is pretty much designed from the start as a single player story driven game we are getting some multiplayer added on as well. I guess before we get all up in arms about this, let's take a look at what is planned. First, and I think the best, is that the core team for Single Player was not tapped for the multiplayer addition to the game. Read More...

Call Of Duty: Black Ops II Officially Announced Now
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 4th of May 2012 - 04:45 PM ]
When are publishers and studios going to realize that they cannot trust humans with sensitive information? Call Of Duty: Black Ops II was technically announced before the company made the announcement or gave us the announcement trailer. Retailers who got information early let things slip. Game sites that received information in terms to prep the news let things "leak." I swear if Treyarch and Activision ran things like the governments they make games for we'd be seeing quite a few unmarked graves around the globe. But I digress. Read More...

It Looks Like We Are Playing A Southpaw In Dishonored
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 3rd of May 2012 - 04:56 PM ]
In a world where most people are dominated by their right hand it makes sense that most game heroes are represented as righties and not lefties. That's why I find it interesting that in the new screens for Bethesda's Dishonored it shows the main character holding the firearms in his left hand and secondary or melee weapons in his right. Not shown very well in the announcement trailer or in many of the other original assets, but here in these game play shots it looks like it is going to be the case. Is it a big deal? Read More...

How Will You Murder Humans In Hitman: Absolution?
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 2nd of May 2012 - 11:23 PM ]
Kind of an odd question to be asked huh but it is pretty much the question posed to you in the most recent trailer for Hitman: Absolution that showcases the star of the franchise, Agent 47. Outside of that it also shows off a bit of game play as well as the different ways you can control the original assassin through the game. It is also full of a lot of blood and violence so send the youngin's out of the room before watching it. If you are waiting to actually watch the clip and still reading, let me break it down a bit.

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, Long Name For A Clone
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 2nd of May 2012 - 09:16 PM ]
It was rumored and "leaked" just like all of Sony's new info that comes out at E3, but now we have an official look and announcement of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. Gods that is a mouthful to say. We'll just go with PASBR from here on out just to save time. Now that we have that set, let's move on. For those who have no clue what PASBR is let me answer that question. It is effectively the PlayStation version of Super Smash Bros. Read More...

Starhawk Kind Of Reminding Me Of Firefly
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 1st of May 2012 - 09:33 PM ]
If you look below you will be able to see the new trailer for Starhawk's story. Needless to say it makes the game look amazing and has piqued my interest in the game a bit more than ever before. Although there is one thing that I can't seem to get past and that is the feel of the Firefly universe here. Take a gander at the trailer here and continue below to read more of my thoughts. Now after watching that, doesn't that give you the "Wild West" look and feel just with a bit of high tech and space? Read More...

Review: Sniper Elite V2
by Fred Buell [ Tuesday, 1st of May 2012 - 06:15 PM ]
Rebellion Developments just gave us a "reboot" or "remake" of the 2005 shooter of the same name, Sniper Elite: V2 which takes place in the same time frame. This time rather than infiltrating the Nazi Army in disguise, you are a lone sniper against both the German and Russian WW2 militaries. Referencing the real life "Operation Paper," you must sneak behind lines and kill, or rescue, German scientists from creating and launching deadly V2 rockets. The game plays very smoothly; only on few occasions, and probably at my provoking the system, did I experience any spots of being stuck or absurd clipping. Sniper Elite plays as you would hope and expect any 3rd person shooter to play. Read More...

Review: The Walking Dead: Episode 1
by Matt Waitt [ Thursday, 26th of April 2012 - 10:02 PM ]
Developed and Published by Telltale Games this episodic game takes place within The Walking Dead universe. While some characters share the names of those in the comic and TV show, it is a whole new story. The Walking Dead is a point and click game with "precision" quick-time events. Instead of simply hitting a button you have to aim in a specific spot and then hit a button. I sat down to play The Walking Dead expecting a quick little hour or so session but I soon found myself sucked in to the characters and their story. I actually finished the game in one session.
