Batman Is A Swinger In Arkham City

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 5th of October 2011 - 06:58 PM ]

If you are in here reading this now, you are either a fan of Batman: Arkham City and want to see new screen shots or you are one of those people who get off to comic book porn.

There are some new screen shots below for B: AC so you can celebrate and pine over the new views of the game.

by Brian Bentley [ Monday, 29th of August 2011 - 03:40 PM ]

Brian simply hates everything in this podcast - from Game Stop to analog sticks to Kotaku. Well, maybe not everything, but just about. Listen to Corey, David and Brian talk over what exactly is games journalism and whether we consider ourselves to be a part of that group. You'll also hear us touch on the Game Stop / Deus Ex debacle and its affect on our lives. As always, we hit up the Community Spotlight as it once again hits close to home, we carefully dissect eight topics on Care / Don't Care and What You've Been Playing brings you closer with talk on League of Legends, Assassins Creed: Brotherhood and Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Vote for David in Sony PlayStation's The Tester! Read More...

Batman Getting The Cold Shoulder In Arkham City

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 16th of August 2011 - 01:17 PM ]

Here we go with yet another villain shown for Batman: Arkham City - Mr. Freeze. If you look below, you'll see the nice, shiny new trailer for this latest reveal. At first glance, it really just seems like another step to stop Bats from getting things under control. That is, until he begins to meander around like a smaller, frozen Big Daddy. It does look like Freeze will be adding a few new environmental challenges for Batman from the video. Most notably would have to be the freezing of ledges. Read More...

X-Men Destiny is an Action RPG collaboration between Marvel and Activision. With an original story-line where you play as a new mutant within the X-men Universe, players will have the ability to make choices throughout the game, and your "Destiny" will be determined by these RPG style decisions. Marvel and Activision have released two behind the scenes trailers for their upcoming title X-Men Destiny. After the jump you will see the latest trailer, along with two behind the scenes videos. The behind the scenes videos consist of the actors from in-game, Scott porter and Jaimie Chung, explaining a little more about the games characters, Adrian and Aimi, also shedding some light on their background story-lines.

by Corey Dockendorf [ Friday, 22nd of July 2011 - 03:09 PM ]

GoldenEye is probably one of the greatest FPS's of all time and as of last year we got a port of the game on the Nintendo Wii. Which for a time brought back some of the N64 nostalgia. Well Activision announced today that they will release GoldenEye 007: Reloaded. Only this time on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, chock full of upgraded features. With its official announcement we have an HD trailer to feast your eyes on. Along with a boatload of HD pics and 60fps of awesome-sauce. Read More...

Batman Really Taking On Jigsaw In Arkham City Now

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 13th of July 2011 - 10:30 PM ]

I do love the new direction that RockSteady has taken The Riddler, my second favorite villain, but I can't seem to look past the close similarities in the characters. They are both geniuses. They both like putting people in death traps. They both have a specific tone and method to their speaking. I guess the only real difference is that the new Riddler does it to prove to the world that he really is the smartest person alive. Anyways, if you haven't picked up on it yet, or skipped to the video, there is a new clip showcasing some of the personality behind The Riddle of Batman: Arkham City. There are no spoilers at all, unless the few words and phrases said would somehow ruin the experience, so don't worry about that. Read More...

David, Corey and Brian are back at it to talk about this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo. First, they wrap up what they've been playing outside of the show floor - including Dungeon Siege III, Dungeons And Dragons: Daggerdale, Alice: The Madness Returns, Duke Nukem Forever, Final Fantasy III, 4 Elements and of course, Brian's update on how many hours he's put into Persona 4. Our Care/Don't Care segment goes commando with an all-E3 focus, which is also our main topic. I will say that our talk went on a bit with the sheer number of topics that presented themselves from E3.

Green Lantern: Rise Of The Manhunters, Potentially Good Or Flop?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 8th of April 2011 - 06:27 PM ]

Recently I had a conversation with a few people on movie tie-in games and if they could ever be any good. As was to be expected, the conclusion was generally not likely. There have been so many crappy movie tie-in games put out there, most of which to suck more money out of the consumer. But every now and then there are a few that are not just utter crap. For me, they are usually the games that are not rushed to meet a film's release date and TRULY expand on the overall story of the film. To put it short so I can move onto the Green Lantern stuff, I've only really enjoyed the games for the Saw franchise. Read More...
