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 Such a huge week for all video games this was and I am not talking about just having GDC come and go. While there was a whole lot that came out of that, there was also a whole lot that came out outside of the major convention. From the multiple announcements from the various System Shock titles to the constant updates of Mortal Kombat 11 we also had. All to the biggest news, for me at least, with Bloodline 2 having the announcement and more coming to Mutant Year Zero. Read More...

Control During GDC 2019, new gameplay for Control was shown to give us a look at the game as well as how Real-Time Ray Tracing will affect Control Just as we all assumed at this point, GDC 2019 has already started off by giving us a look at some of the technologies coming to our video games and we get to see more for Control here. For this title we are seeing just how Remedy will be using some of the new Real-Time Ray Tracing for the game to make shadows look a bit crisper and the lighting feels a little more authentic. Among many other things too, but that is the main focus for this new video for Control by doing the usual gameplay with the settings turned on and then off at times. 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 The week is over and it is time to take a deserved break with more video games. This time in the way of actually getting to play them and not just write about them. Not that we did not like the fact that Ashes Of Oahu now has a set timeline to release or that The Division 2 had so many updates before we can play it now. I would rather just be playing that hearing all of the teases out there. Read More...

Control A new deep dive into the abilities of Control is out there where we get to see the different abilities and powers we will wield in Control We finally have some new updates for Control to look at and this one goes all in on the abilities and powers we will get to use in the game. Not that we did not have a clue what we would be seeing from Remedy in this form as we have seen all of the telekinetic abilities and the gun in past trailers. Now we get to find out that there is a bit more to it all than we previously thought. It still boils down to two main things in Control in this form, but we have the chance to see how we will be able to use them all in the game. Read More...

Control The next trailer for Control is here to take us back into the Oldest House again and show off more of what the Federal Bureau of Control are dealing with Get ready for more of that “new weird” we keep hearing about for Control as we have yet another trailer for the game that goes into just a bit more of all of that. Not too much as it looks to be a lot of the same visuals we have had a few times, but there is some new narration that further explains a bit more of the history in the world being built by Remedy here. That is always a good thing when dealing such strangeness as we have since Control was first announced. Read More...

Control A new mashup of Control’s developer diaries is here to recap as well as tease a new announcement for another character joining in on Control Maybe you have kept up on all of the Control updates or maybe you have missed out on a few. There has been quite a few since we first caught wind of the game from Remedy. All of which have been presented in the team's unique way of going about things. Some of it has been as ominous as we could expect for Control, sure, but some has been pretty straightforward for us to take in. Read More...

Control The next developer diary for Control is here to walk us through both the new and old directors for the Federal Bureau of Control We are back with yet another developer diary for Control here and this one takes a nice dive into the powers that were and will be in charge of the FBC in the game. We have already met one as that will be the main character we are playing as in the game, but until now we have only had a few short glimpses of what Remedy has set up as the former director of the organization. All with the dark and shadowy presence of the Cigarette Smoking Man from The X-Files. Read More...

Control The latest developer diary is here for Control and this one goes into detail on Control’s Protagonist, Jesse Faden, and how she was formed The next installment of Control’s ongoing developer diaries is now here. This time we get to go for a ride through the process of how Remedy has tackled the creation of their latest protagonist Jesse Faden for the game. I know you have seen her in all of the past videos for Control, but now it is time to put a face to the voice and motion capture as well as look at how the team came up with her look. Something that also dives into the personality and past of the character when you start to get into the nitty-gritty. 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...

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 This week is now over and we can go back to focusing on playing our video games instead of hunting down for any new tidbit for them. At least on our side of the screen here. Not that it has not been exciting hearing more about The Walking Dead and Darksiders III, but it is finally time to let loose. How else are we supposed to get up to date with our South Park DLC and hammering out more for Shadow Of War? Read More...

Control The second developer diary for Control is out and we get to dive deeper into some of the gameplay Control will offer up We still have a lot to learn about Control and now we get to learn a bit more of the gameplay for the game. Well, more about the path that Remedy games took when crafting the gameplay for the game as we do not have anything new in those terms to see but they do have a lot to say about it. At least if you are willing to dig into the new developer diary for Control that we have just below to look at as the team describes their approach to it all. They are aiming to make a different game than we have seen over the years from them so it is worth knowing how things may be a bit different than before. 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 Another week in the bag and so many more video games to look at and discuss. Even with the lull between major events that we are in at this point we still had a whole lot to look at and discuss. We had a lot of new gameplay show up for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and Anthem here. We also found out a few other video games will be launching here soon or in regions we did not think possible. Read More...

Control The first developer diary for Control is here to explain how the team went about constructing the world and story of Control So far, what has been shown for Control has been impressive and it looks like we could be getting ready for another great hit from Remedy. It does seem to tick off a lot of what we all have come to expect from the developer and now that their title will be coming to the PS4 on top of the Xbox One and PC, it looks like it could all be more promising for the team to do well. All that needs to happen now is to make sure that the world and story of Control work just as well as the mechanics and we are all golden for a nice new franchise to pine over. Not the loftiest of demands, but it is all something that we are all waiting for to find out the full details. Read More...
