Video Games A lot has gone on this week in video games. Here is a recap of what we covered in the world of video games on the site this week Let the weekend of multiple video games commence as we have wrapped up yet another fun week in it all. We are on the cusp of getting everything we have been waiting for over the last nine months or so and with Shadow Of The Tomb Raider dropping now and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey following up close behind it, we are in for some true fun here. That is not even looking at other titles like Life Is Strange 2 starting up and the rest of the video games we have on the horizon. Even titles like Just Cause 4 are keeping us all hooked in for a bit more now. Read More...

Kart Racer A new Kart Racer title has been announced with Nickelodeon Kart Racers where we will get to do just that with all of our favorite cartoon characters If you were thinking this October was missing out on some genre of video game to enjoy, you are right and it looks like Nickelodeon Kart Racers is there to fill that void. You should be able to tell what I am talking about here with the name. In case you cannot, I am talking about the kart-racing genre of video games and it looks like GameMill Entertainment is plugging that whole on October 23rd now with the release date announcement. Read More...

Tomb Raider We sit down and review Shadow Of The Tomb Raider. The next chapter in the redefining saga of Lara Croft. Here is our review of Shadow Of The Tomb Raider The next title in the ever-growing Tomb Raider franchise is finally here and taking us further into the world and iconic character many have fallen in love with. Things have been shaken up over the years for the franchise, but Eidos-Montréal is back to continue her saga as well as offer up new and improved gameplay for the franchise. That is at least the promise on the outside, but we were lucky enough to get a look at things on the inside. Read More...

SoulCalibur Cervantes is here to join the roster of SoulCalibur VI adding another SoulCalibur veteran to the ever-growing list of fighters for the game Fans of Cervantes from all of the past titles can rest assured that the character will be back for SoulCalibur VI now. I say this because we finally have the reveal trailer for the character here from Bandai Namco to show how the character has evolved and changed since we last saw. Especially since he was taken down and sent to Hell in previous SoulCalibur titles. At least as we are going here with the current lore and how the character is being brought back to join in the fight on October 19th when the game hits the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Read More...

Pathfinder A new look at Pathfinder: Kingmaker shows off some new gameplay as well as how some of the grand Pathfinder adventures can be told in the game We have one more look at Pathfinder: Kingmaker here just weeks before it hits the PC on September 25th. I am not talking about the tabletop version of the adventure path here for those who have been left in the lurch about the video game version, but I am talking about the new game from Owlcat Games that was kickstarted and then picked up by Deep Silver. I hope you have been following along with it all so far as it has been looking like an insanely viable option to playing this adventure in the Pathfinder universe while not needing a set table and time to play it all. That can be the most difficult part of it all in the modern nights now. Read More...

Twin Mirror New gameplay for Twin Mirror is here to highlight two new gameplay mechanics we will have to use through each episode of Twin Mirror A few new surprises have cropped up for Twin Mirror here recently with one of the big ones being that the game is going to be episodic. This is not that odd given the craze that this style has been in the past years and the fact that this is DontNod making the game. It really feels like something we should have all be expecting. Although, with the twist that there will only be three episodes for Twin Mirror with the first launching in 2019, I guess it is fair to see why we missed the clues. Read More...

Jump Force New footage for Jump Force is here to bring us more fighters from Hunter x Hunter, One Piece, and Dragon Ball Z to join the battle in Jump Force There is even more footage for Jump Force to take in as well as six new characters added to the growing roster of the game. Some of which were to be expected given the hold Bandai Namco has on some of the IPs, but others just add to the growing roster. Not only that, but we also have a look at a few more of the levels and arenas we will be destroying in Jump Force when it is finally wrapped up by Spike Chunsoft in 2019 and then packaged up for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. So much more time to cram in many more, so we will have to see how far they go. Read More...

SoulCalibur A new character for SoulCalibur VI is revealed here with Azwel and he is also new to the SoulCalibur franchise in general One more fighter has joined the ranks of SoulCalibur VI and it is Azwel. If you are not familiar with this character, do not fret. This is a completely new character for the franchise that Bandai Namco has put together for us to expand not only the roster here, but also that of the SoulCalibur franchise. Finally another new one that is not just a crossover character or a twist on an original character of some sorts. I will take it and now have more to look forward to on October 19th when the game drops on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Read More...

Man Of Medan A new horror series of games has been announced with Man Of Medan coming at us to kick of The Dark Pictures anthology If you are a fan of what Supermassive Games has been up to recently with their titles, then you will be tickled pink with their latest announcement of The Dark Pictures — Man Of Medan. Technically two separate things that link together but the names run together for now. To be clear, The Dark Pictures is a new anthology of games with Man Of Medan being the first in the series. Read More...

Control A new video for Control is here and it shows us how the game will leverage some new tech from NVidia to make the world of Control feel ‘realer’ We are still waiting for some new gameplay details for Control and what we have here is not much in the way of that. What we do have here today is a small look at how Remedy will be using some new technology to help further the realism of the game's world and in turn increase the immersion of it all. At least that is the hope and it does look like they are on their way to do that with Control given the new ray-tracing and illumination effects we have to look at here. At least on the PC side of it all as there is no word on how this will translate over to the PS4 and Xbox One side of things, if at all. Read More...

Video Games A lot has gone on this week in video games. Here is a recap of what we covered in the world of video games on the site this week Time to put one more week of news in video games behind us and look on to the next. Especially with so many new games coming to market here in the coming weeks or came to us this week alone. I know I am shooting an in the direction of We Happy Few now and of course keeping eyes on Spider-Man and Shadow Of The Tomb Raider now. So many video games are coming and we also cannot ignore the new updates coming God Of War and the various fighting games out there right now. Read More...

Control The next developer diary for Control is here to show us the Oldest House and headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Control Here we go with the next developer diary for Control and this one takes us deeper into The Oldest House of the game. This would be the headquarters of the main organization we will be in charge of in the game as well as the location for the game. We have heard and seen a bit of it from Remedy in the past, but this time we get to know it a bit better and also see more than we have seen in the public before. Not much more, but it is a slight bit more of Control to look at as we learn more about the location that is part of a lot of other Sci-Fi buildings and constructs from the past. Read More...

Tomb Raider The first fifteen minutes of Shadow Of The Tomb Raider have been released and it looks like we are off to a familiar start in this part of the Tomb Raider saga If you were looking to spoil the opening fifteen minutes to Shadow Of The Tomb Raider, then you have come to the right place as that is what we have here for you today. For some reason Eidos-Montréal has opted to let IGN ruin the opening to the game in the midst of all of the other things we could have received here. It is either that or Square Enix sees this as a great way to get us all amped for Shadow Of The Tomb Raider to launch in just over a month from now. Read More...

SoulCalibur Two more characters for SoulCalibur VI have been announced as we get to add a few more SoulCalibur veterans to the list of fighters we will play as It is time to add two more fighters to the list for SoulCalibur VI as we just had Astaroth and Seong Mi-Na announced and shown off to us all. Both have been part of the game's universe for quite some time and it is not too surprising that Bandai Namco is lumping them into the game as well. It does take up two more slots in the SoulCalibur VI roster that could be filled with new characters to the franchise, but as October 19th is coming up quickly, I have a feeling we are only going to be seeing the tried and true characters popping up. Read More...

Tekken 7 The second season pass of fighters for Tekken 7 was shown off recently with two fighters revealed and word that Tekken 7 is getting one from The Walking Dead The grand finals for Tekken 7 out of EVO have come and gone and with it we have more to look forward to for the game as a new season of character DLC will be on its way soon. There have been a lot of characters already added in by Bandai Namco, but there is always room for more of the past and future characters to get added into the PS4, Xbox One, and PC game here. It also allows for them to open up even more crossovers from other franchises to happen and make more money for Tekken 7 than before. Read More...
