Death Strikes Again With A New Darksiders II CGI Trailer

Death Strikes Again With A New Darksiders II CGI Trailer

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 18th of May 2012 - 09:21 PM ]

Way back in March we got a nice little CGI trailer for Darksiders II. It was cool and beautiful, but it was only the first part of the promotional video. Lucky for us, below we have the next part of the clip which also leaves us wanting and waiting for the continuation of Death's badassitude. Yes it's a word. Deal with it. My only hope is that these kinds of clips will take over for the cut scenes in Darksiders II, at least for major scenes. Read More...

Mercenary Ops Beta Opens

Mercenary Ops Beta Opens

by Fred Buell [ Tuesday, 15th of May 2012 - 06:11 PM ]

Mercenary Ops; the new free-to-play 3rd person shooter MMO due out this Summer from Yingpei Games; is now accepting beta applicants. All you have to do is 'Like' their Facebook page and beta hopefuls will be selected and sent out beta codes for the promising game. Beta entrants will be allowed into the servers June 20th. I think Mercenary Ops looks great for being a F2P MMO and being based in the Unreal Engine 3 only helps. Customizable weapons and character perks put this along with other MMOs in terms of gear, but its co-op missions, boss fights and head to head style modes keep this game firmly secured in the world of shooters.

Review: Prototype 2

Review: Prototype 2

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 8th of May 2012 - 08:52 PM ]

It's been a long wait but Prototype 2 has finally landed to the enjoyment of all of us fans from the first game. It's not every game where you get to power bomb someone from atop some of the tallest buildings in the country but this is totally one of them. It has been three years in the works and there have been other titles out like it since, so does Prototype 2 hold up to the franchise's already well set bar. Let's find out. Story It's been fourteen months since the events of Prototype. Read More...

Review: Sniper Elite V2

Review: Sniper Elite V2

by Fred Buell [ Tuesday, 1st of May 2012 - 06:15 PM ]

Rebellion Developments just gave us a "reboot" or "remake" of the 2005 shooter of the same name, Sniper Elite: V2 which takes place in the same time frame. This time rather than infiltrating the Nazi Army in disguise, you are a lone sniper against both the German and Russian WW2 militaries. Referencing the real life "Operation Paper," you must sneak behind lines and kill, or rescue, German scientists from creating and launching deadly V2 rockets. The game plays very smoothly; only on few occasions, and probably at my provoking the system, did I experience any spots of being stuck or absurd clipping. Sniper Elite plays as you would hope and expect any 3rd person shooter to play. Read More...

Review: The Walking Dead: Episode 1

Review: The Walking Dead: Episode 1

by Matt Waitt [ Thursday, 26th of April 2012 - 10:02 PM ]

Developed and Published by Telltale Games this episodic game takes place within The Walking Dead universe. While some characters share the names of those in the comic and TV show, it is a whole new story. The Walking Dead is a point and click game with "precision" quick-time events. Instead of simply hitting a button you have to aim in a specific spot and then hit a button. I sat down to play The Walking Dead expecting a quick little hour or so session but I soon found myself sucked in to the characters and their story. I actually finished the game in one session.

Star Trek Should Be The Push From 3D To Something More

Star Trek Should Be The Push From 3D To Something More

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 20th of April 2012 - 06:07 PM ]

It's been about eight months since we last heard anything of substance from Digital Extreme's Star Trek. Why don't we go check in and see what is new? Or if anything, see if there is anything all that spectacularly new since the E3 demo recording. Well… Um… We have a couple new pieces of concept art and a teaser trailer for the game that shows roughly a minute of new stuff. Outside of the fact that it will be able to be played completely in stereoscopic 3D, there isn't really all that much to say or show. Everything is below. Read More...

PAX East Hands-On: Borderlands 2

PAX East Hands-On: Borderlands 2

by Matt Waitt [ Wednesday, 11th of April 2012 - 04:17 PM ]

Borderlands 2 is a massive improvement from the first installment. The controls are super smooth and tight. The feeling of level grinding seems to have disappeared, thankfully. Having other colors in the game, rather than just brown, has really showed off the rich and beautiful landscape that the world of Pandora has to offer. I got to play as the new Siren in the game: Maya. Her special ability stuns her enemies in a blackish purple vortex allowing you to get off some free shots. Read More...

PAX East Hands-On: Spec Ops: The Line

PAX East Hands-On: Spec Ops: The Line

by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 10th of April 2012 - 09:48 PM ]

At PAX East I got to try out a little bit of the single player campaign for Spec Ops: The Line, and had a great interview with one of the developers. I really enjoyed the demo at PAX East. It was very smooth and had responsive controls. There events where you had a chance to negotiate with your enemies, but if things went sour you had to reap the consequences. For instance one group of enemies had a hostage and was threatening to kill him. Instead of waiting for them to assassinate him, I made a quick decision to kill the enemies and save my team mate's life. Read More...

Aggrocast Episode Ninety Five: We're Mad As Hell

Aggrocast Episode Ninety Five: We're Mad As Hell

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 4th of April 2012 - 04:37 PM ]

…and we're not gonna take it anymore. That may only be slightly paraphrasing the movie Network, but then again, we're gamers, so we'll probably continue to "take it." We're hoping you take and enjoy our latest episode of the Aggrocast as Corey, Brian and Matt talk about the latest news, including the recent announcement for Amazon Instant Video on PS3. The guys also talk about their latest adventures in gaming - including World of Warcraft, iPad games, SNES games, Wheels of Destruction and Mass Effect 2. Our Community Spotlight this week focuses on our support for Aggrogamer's own Chief Editor, David Becker, as he attempts to break gender-stereotypes and win the Maxim Gamer Girl contest.

This BioShock Infinite Heavy Hitter Is Screaming For Vengeance

This BioShock Infinite Heavy Hitter Is Screaming For Vengeance

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 28th of March 2012 - 09:23 PM ]

Here we go with the final "Heavy Hitter" for BioShock Infinite. Yep, the fourth and final that they are revealing as a hardcore enemy that is just below sub-boss and above mook in the game. We've gone over the Motorized Patriot, the Handyman and the Boys of Silence so far. Now we get to look at the Siren. Sounds kind of nice at first, then you find out that she essentially a healer that can resurrect all of the enemies you've already killed with but a scream. I'm not sure if this is going to be one of those creatures that inspire the panic to kill right away or just plain get annoying after killing everything in a room only to have her bring them all back.

LittleBigPlanet Karting Now Officially Announced

LittleBigPlanet Karting Now Officially Announced

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 26th of March 2012 - 04:07 PM ]

Well it only took a little over a month, but LittleBigPlanet Karting can now be considered announced. It has a new trailer and screens to say so as well even though it was pretty much "leaked" a while back. I know…I know… But when we all first heard about the game and saw the first images it was outside the pre-defined PR timeline for when it was to be truly announced. That is now. Ok, so we all knew it was coming for a while now but at least we do get a nice new trailer and a few screens to show off the game and where it is in production. Read More...

Finally Some Game Play For The Walking Dead Video Game

Finally Some Game Play For The Walking Dead Video Game

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Sunday, 25th of March 2012 - 06:29 PM ]

We recently were given a look at The Walking Dead's game play via Telltale's debut trailer but it wasn't much more than a few seconds. A few seconds of very little compared to what the latest episode of Playing Dead has to show us. While the episode is about 15 minutes long, if you jump to the 7 minute mark you will get a glimpse at about 3 minutes of the game. Spoiler, it looks like it handles just as one would expect from Telltale. Take a watch. Read More...

Do We Really Need More Reasons To Buy Prototype 2?

Do We Really Need More Reasons To Buy Prototype 2?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Sunday, 25th of March 2012 - 01:32 AM ]

How many reasons do you need to pick up Prototype 2? For me it was the sheer fact that there is a sequel to the game coming out that sold it for me. Then again I am a huge fan of the first and have seen nothing but good things for PT2. Those of you on the fence may want to take a look at the below trailer which will show you another 11 reasons why you should pre-order the game or give it a go when it finally launches. I'll be honest here that none of these reasons would be a 100% lock in for me if I was new to the franchise. I don't expect it to be for you either. Read More...

Time To Gawk At The View Darksiders II Will Be Giving Us

Time To Gawk At The View Darksiders II Will Be Giving Us

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 22nd of March 2012 - 09:12 PM ]

I have to admit that every time there is something new for Darksiders II, visually, I find it a little hard to actually write something about it. I actually have a loss of words because the visuals of the clips and screens speak volumes more than I ever could and I am normally very long winded. This also makes me have to admit that when there is new stuff there is a delay on posting about it. Given all that, we have a new CGI Trailer as well as a newish Dev Diary for the game. The diary showing more or less the scale of the game world and some of the environments. Read More...

BioShock Infinite Using Silent Alarms Now With Their New Heavy Hitter

BioShock Infinite Using Silent Alarms Now With Their New Heavy Hitter

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 21st of March 2012 - 09:46 PM ]

Last week we got a few videos showing a few of the suped-up enemies of BioShock Infinite. The Handyman and Motorized Patriot to be specific. Keeping things going here, Irrational has brought us yet another "Heavy Hitter" from the game. These ones are called the Boys of Silence. At first glance they don't seem to imposing and only a bit on the bizarre side of things. This is BioShock after all. What is interesting her though is that these seem to be what will be taking over for those damned alarms from the first two titles. Read More...
