A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games There we go with the first real week of video games news. Loads and loads of new stuff and we were only able to cover so much, as usual. Evolve and Battlefield Hardline have been some of the bigger things but we can forget about the two new characters fully revealed for Mortal Kombat X and all of the horror titles we can look forward to in the near future. That being Until Dawn for the PS4 and the recently announced Friday The 13th title in the works. Like I said, a whole lot in the first real week of video games news. Read More...

In a recent interview for Until Dawn with one of the developers from Supermassive Games it was revealed the five strategies being used to scare you during the game Until Dawn is slated to be a playable horror film coming sometime, hopefully, later this year for the PS4. This we already know as Supermassive Games has done a great job at conveying that as well as began doling out new information like the blood that squirts out of a decapitated body. What they have not been so forth coming with, until now of course, has been how they are going to be giving us that horror movie feel but still be able to startle or disturb some of horror aficionados with Until Dawn. This is where the most recent interview mentioned above comes in. Read More...

Sierra is set to publish Shiftlings for its PS4, Xbox One, and PC release later this year. Also a new trailer We all need more puzzle games and Shiftlings is now another title to get thrown into the mix for the PS4 and Xbox One. It was already greenlit on Steam but that wasn't enough for Rock Pocket Games I guess as now they are having Sierra publish the title. It was announced back in 2013 and greenlit in 2014 so there is a nice progression to watch and good on them all for making a title that a rather well known publisher wants to call their own. Hopefully you know your history on all of this since we will not be going in too deep into all of that here. Read More...

Steve Papoutsis has today released a blog post containing initial information about the upcoming Battlefield Hardline beta for the PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, and PS3 If you missed the first Battlefield Hardline beta then fret not as we are getting another one sometime between now and March 17th. That is kind of all we know about this latest beta announcement as the blog posting and press release talking about it don't detail much more. Well outside of it being open for all to give a whirl on any platform that Battlefield Hardline is going to be coming to. Also that that there will be no crazy requirements to sign up or special codes. Read More...

The Evolve Monster for the expansion pack has been named, revealed, and shown why bigger is always better I thought we were going to have to wait much longer to finally see the fourth monster for Evolve to be announced and detailed. This would be the monster that we were all asked to help name and we might be able to see something shortly after the launch of the game next month. I guess the name was the last thing that Turtle Rock needed to finalize the new monster as here we go with the announcement of the DLC monster coming for all who pre-order. I'm sure it will be available on the PS4 and Xbox One sometime after launch but as of now that is how you get a hold of this new monster. Read More...

Here is our first solid look at what will be coming to the Havoc DLC Pack for Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare here in a few weeks Only a little more time before that Havoc DLC for Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare hits and we have a bunch of new maps, weapons, and game mode to play. Whatever we can do to keep us playing Advanced Warfare until this year's version of the CoD franchise is announced. Not to mention that all of us out there who dropped extra cash for the season pass would like to see something for our money outside of a few teases. At least I know I am in that boat and hopefully you are too. Read More...

The latest trailer for Volume has been released and it shows off the enemies we will be facing in the game Volume was teased and received its first gameplay trailer mid-last year. This is the latest title coming from the studio that brought us Thomas Was Alone and is a modern day-ish stealth telling of a Robin Hood story. Except that unlike other stealth games Volume wants you to be heard during the gameplay. Heard so that the enemies can come and hunt you down and most likely to make it easier to sneak by them all. Read More...

Turtle Rock Studios have released the PC specs for Evolve so you can be sure it looks amazing next month Hopefully you were able to get in on the latest Evolve beta over the weekend and have helped 2K and Turtle Rock make sure that their servers are going to handle the massive amounts of traffic on February 10th. If you were not then that sucks and my condolences. If you were able to get the hook up for the PC version of the beta then hopefully it has looked rather decent for you. Read More...

It's been announced that there is a new Friday The 13th title in the works from Crystal Lake Entertainment and an un-named developer Good news for us horror fans, maybe, as there is a new Friday The 13th video game in the works. This is to go hand in hand with the new TV show and film but hopefully will not be solely a tie-in for the franchise. Details are still sparse on it all since the news dropper "exclusively" on EGM Now but that does not mean we don't have at least the basics as we wait for the anything visual for this new Friday The 13th game. It's been over 25 years now since Jason graced our video games so it is high time and Crystal Lake Entertainment thinks they need to get piece of the gaming pie again. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games Here we go for the end of another week in video games. While not everything here was directly for the software side of things we did have some great highlights for the hardware side and then a bit of software. I blame CES bringing us so many cool things to play our video games with. Could you imaging Resident Evil running with the Oculus Rift or Morpheus. Or maybe allow all of us who are not parkour masters to run through Dying Light and give us all a feel of the action. Read More...

Evolve is set shaping up to be the game of the year… perhaps one of the best games of the decade. I was able to participate in the Big Alpha and I thoroughly enjoyed playing. Turtle Rock Studios known best as the creator of the Left 4 Dead is set to release their new game Evolve on February 10th, 2015. Until then though they held the Big Alpha giving some people the chance to experience the game. Needless to say it was some of the most fun I've had playing a game in a while. Read More...

We have some official screenshots and details for that Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain chicken hat that was all the rage Back around Christmas the hopefuls for a Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain release date were trolled and shown a new hat that can be used in the game. The chicken hat for those who don't want to go back and read. Some though this was still a joke that Hideo Kojima was running on everyone but it looks like Konami and Kojima Productions have confirmed the hat more so by giving us all some nice new screenshots and a better description of how the hat will be used once we actually get the game. Hopefully this year some time but that is still a great mystery to be solved for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and that may take a lot longer than solving P. Read More...

The Evolve intro cinematic has been released online to get all those hunters read for the next big beta on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC In only a few more days we will all be helping Turtle Rock and 2K test out those servers for Evolve. Hopefully you were in on the Big Alpha so you had a nice easy time getting set up for the next beta for the Xbox One or the server stress test for the PS4 and PC. If not good luck and keep an eye out for a whole bunch of new gameplay to be hitting after the beta is over as we are now moving closer to the launch of Evolve. With that close at hand we not only do we get those aforementioned beta/stress tests but a nice new video for those who are not going to be able to take part in the fun. Read More...

Looks like one of the pre-order bonuses for Batman: Arkham Knight might have spoiled the game's ending on accident If you don't want any bit of Batman: Arkham Knight spoiled for you then you might want to stop reading. Who am I kidding though? You already clicked in with the given title so you are ready to find out how Batman: Arkham Knight's story and conclusion may have been spoiled almost half a year before it hits the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The worst part behind it, if it is true then it isn't any crazy slip by Rocksteady or Warner Bros. but via the Limited Edition bundle of the game and Amazon having amazing images for the bundle. Read More...

A test market survey for Far Cry from Ubisoft was sent out and it alludes to other options that we may see for the franchise moving forward Marketing surveys can be fun and in the case of the most recent one for Far Cry from Ubisoft it looks like the fun doesn't stop. In fact it flows and has now added all kinds of speculation to the future of the franchise that they are still doing extremely well with. At least last I checked Far Cry 4 was still one of their top selling titles from last year but the video game industry can be a fickle bitch. Enough of that and let's see what we can maybe look forward to in Far Cry's future. Read More...
