Eight Years Of World Of Warcraft
by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 20th of November 2012 - 06:44 PM ]
On November 23rd, World Of Warcraft will be celebrating its eighth birthday. A major feat for any game. Released back in 2004, World of Warcraft (or WoW) has come a long way, and not just in the literal sense. Since its release, WoW has seen over ten million subscribers, four expansions, over 1500 achievements, and enough quests to last you nearly a decade. I first started playing WoW in September of 2009. My first character ever was a Night Elf Rogue and I explored the lush forests of Teldrasil in my first fifteen levels. Read More...

Review: Wreck-It Ralph
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 30th of October 2012 - 10:41 PM ]
For the last few months we've all been bombarded with ads and trailers for Disney's upcoming Wreck-It Ralph. A film that looks like it will do to video games what Toy Story did to toys. But how well is the question? Well sit back and enjoy our review of Wreck-It Ralph. The Story: 'Wreck-It' Ralph is the villain of a 'retro' game in an arcade who is pretty much crapped on for being the villain. He hates it. Who wouldn't? Read More...

Challenge Mode Armor Updates For Mist Of Pandaria
by Matt Waitt [ Wednesday, 24th of October 2012 - 07:01 PM ]
The new feature in World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria called "Challenge Mode Dungeons" offer some very cool Transmogable gear. Transmog aka Xmog is changing the look of your gear with another piece of gear while saving the same stats. So Gear A will look like gear B but still has the stats of gear A. But now Blizzard has announced that all of the Challenge Mode gear sets will have a "use" ability to them, giving each class a unique flare to their awesome new gear. For those of you who don't know; Challenge Mode Dungeons are Heroic dungeons on crack. Read More...

Why So Serious?
by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 23rd of October 2012 - 10:27 PM ]
I think the Joker summed up the past few years of video games quite well, with his famous saying "Why So Serious!?" It seems that today's industry has dropped the light-hearted and comical games of yester-years for a more gritty, hardcore, and serious tone. While I'm not saying these "serious" games are bad, I am saying that a break from them would be much appreciated. Video games are not all about world wars, political sabotaging, or saving the world from a cliché ultimate evil. We came from a very humble beginning, a beginning of stomping on weird brown monsters, using rainbows to squash bugs, and controlling fat pink things that suck up anything in their path. Read More...

Deadpool Adds Domino To The Roster Or Kill List
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 16th of October 2012 - 10:12 PM ]
So now that we have waited patiently for any news on Deadpool, the game not the character, it finally looks like we are getting just a bit more. A new character for the game as well as the Merc's own colorful words on said character. Who is this new character? None other than the girl who can get lucky with anyone, Domino. Points if you catch the pun. Domino is well known for having been part of Six Pack and X-Force in the Marvel universe. Read More...

Review: World Of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria
by Matt Waitt [ Thursday, 11th of October 2012 - 11:06 PM ]
Mists of Pandaria is World of Warcraft's fourth expansion since its beginning in 2004. Featuring over 1,800 achievements, a new race, a new class, a whole new continent to explore and much more. Mists of Pandaria was released back in September and I'm finally writing up a review for it, simply because I have experience enough of the expansion to finally give it a worthwhile review. So the level cap has been increased five levels. While that might not seem much, the ramp up from 85 to 90 is enormous. Read More...

Story Time For Assassin's Creed III!
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 4th of October 2012 - 07:07 PM ]
We are close to the launch of Assassin's Creed III and we know the general story and time period of the game. Wouldn't it be nice to get the spoiler on why and how Connor joined the assassins? When you look at the recruitment process in the past it would seem a bit odd that a Native American would join the ranks of the assassins. They have seemed to stick to a specific 'type' so far, but I digress. A bit of a heads up, the below trailer does touch on a few things in the intro story. Read More...

Story Time For Dishonored!
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 1st of October 2012 - 10:58 PM ]
Maybe you've been paying attention to Dishonored this and maybe you haven't been. Either way I am here to bring you a couple of new videos for the game that showcase a little of what could be seen as the back story for the game. From what it looks like it could all be related to how Corvo gets all his bad ass powers and the mask. Not to mention what kind of led to the world being in the state that it is in. They look to be more or less fun videos to give a bit of the background than actual details, so don't expect them to be spoilerific at all. Read More...

Here Is What Was Promised For Black Ops II Zombies Last Week
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 27th of September 2012 - 07:07 PM ]
So last week we were teased with a world premiere for the Zombies mode for Call Of Duty: Black Ops II. Teased and left waiting. Well the wait is now over. Below we have the "World Premiere" of Zombies mode for Black Ops II and, well, we are still left wondering what is going on with it. The two minute video below shows off some fun game play and cinematics for the mode, but now real details though. Outside of what looks like a campaign style progression map leading to new maps to kill the undead. If you want to call it that. Read More...

Dead Island: Riptide Tries The Tearjerker Again
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 20th of September 2012 - 04:40 PM ]
I am sure we all remember back when Dead Island was first announced and the trailer that came with it. I am sure you do. It had people welling up with tears over a fictional family that was on the island of Banoi when the outbreak happened. Seems that Dead Island: Riptide is taking its turn at trying to hit you in the gut just like before. Below you can see the new CGI trailer for Riptide. While not an announcement trailer, as it has been announced already, it is the first promotional video showcasing the horrors that may lay in wait for us in the game. Read More...

Don't you just love being teased? At least in this aspect you only have about a week before the details of Black Ops II Zombies will be let loose on the populace. I know this because the following teaser says so. Don't believe me, then go get teased as well. This is the mode that so many people have been begging for information for. Maybe the pre-rendered teaser gives up something. Well, nope it really doesn't now does it? Read More...

Review: Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 17th of September 2012 - 04:05 PM ]
Here we go with another Transformers game. They are seriously coming out like Call Of Duty titles now. One every year and hey why not, obviously we like them enough to line the pockets of the developer's and publisher's pockets with greenbacks. So how does Transformers: Fall of Cybertron fair? Let's see. Story The Autobots are serious in trying to leave Cybertron this time around and are getting there Ark ready to go. Wouldn't you know it that those damned Decepticons want to stop them and do a great job at it. Read More...

Assassin's Creed III's Combat Looks Beautifully Brutal
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 12th of September 2012 - 08:52 PM ]
We are getting closer to the launch of Assassin's Creed III. As we get closer it looks like Ubisoft is ramping up the game play details; this time with the actual combat of the game. Below you will see that we have episode two of the four part series that is showcasing all the game's insides. I was a bit doubtful when I first heard about the altered combat system for AC3, but seeing it fully in action here, dear gods. I am sure they took as much detail in past titles, but it definitely looks like they went all out here. Looks like this could be just as fluid as Arkham Asylum/City's combat when all is said and done and that is what I would classify as the best in the biz. Read More...

Dead Island: Riptide Shows No Hope For The Survivors
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 12th of September 2012 - 04:31 PM ]
Just when you think things might be going well in the world of Dead Island you find out things just got worse. Recently there was a bit more revealed about the upcoming sequel, Dead Island: Riptide, including some screens. In this reveal we find out that all of the survivors, Playable Character, are on their way to safety and then thrust onto a new island of the dead. Ain't that some shit? What is fun to also find out is that there will be a few new survivors added to the mix for this new island. Read More...

How To Become The Ideal Assassin In Dishonored
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 11th of September 2012 - 04:27 PM ]
Dishonored is a game all about a supernatural assassin. So it would make sense that there is a whole slew of ways to go through the game all sneaky. Wouldn't you know it, Arkane Studios and Bethesda have given us a look at a few of the ways to do all that. At least I am hoping that this is only a few in comparison to all the other options. Just as would be assumed sight and sound will be key factors in moving about for the quiet kill. So no real big news there. Read More...
