PAX East Panel: Red5 Studios

PAX East Panel: Red5 Studios

by Fred Buell [ Wednesday, 3rd of April 2013 - 08:15 PM ]

This past PAX East 2013 I was lucky enough to be seated in a room with several other members of the press and general attendees to hear about all things Red5. Let's first talk about Red5's Firefall. I first got to play and look at Firefall at last year's PAX East. The game is still in beta and being constantly worked on and taking serious looks at what the fans want in the game. Right off the bat of this presser was informative and entertaining. They have moved away from the previous 'Tier' and 'Level' based system and instead opted for a gear based system. Read More...

PAX East Interview: WildStar

PAX East Interview: WildStar

by Matt Waitt [ Wednesday, 27th of March 2013 - 08:59 PM ]

Last week I had the pleasure of snagging WildStar's Senior 3D Artist, Stephan Williams, for an interview and demo of Carbine Studio's and NC Soft's upcoming MMORPG. Although he was not able to answer every question we sure hounded him for a solid twenty minutes or so. I was joined with two special guests, TJ Jensen and Erik Gmitter. Together we were blown away by the amazing graphics, animations, and features that they had to show off in the PAX East demo. The story behind WildStar is thus; the home world of the long lost Eldan civilization has just been rediscovered and everyone in the galaxy is racing to find out its secrets. Read More...

PAX East Hands On: Daylight

PAX East Hands On: Daylight

by Kenton Winkfield [ Wednesday, 27th of March 2013 - 04:19 PM ]

I’ve said it before; it's tough not to grab my attention when I get shown a video game. But it is tough to pull me away from one that already has my attention. Zombie Studios showcased their game Daylight at the Astro Headset Booth, which was close to Square Enix, my favorite developer/publisher, and right next to Wizards of the Coast, makers of my favorite TCG, Magic: The Gathering. This is an incredibly difficult location for a game to be showcased if it wants to keep my attention. Zombie Studios had no trouble reaching that feat. Read More...

PAX East Impressions: Guacamelee!

PAX East Impressions: Guacamelee!

by Fred Buell [ Tuesday, 26th of March 2013 - 11:28 PM ]

This weekend I got to sit down with Graham Smith the co-founder of Drinkbox Studios. He showed me Drinkbox's new game Guacamelee! and I must say it's a nice blend of classic Metroidvania style action and Megaman style platforming. Guacamelee! has a 'dual world' feature where you have to jump through portals to navigate the levels. These two worlds are called The World of the Living and The World of the Dead. You will come across enemies that are shrouded in shadow that cannot be attacked, as they are in the other world, but simply jumping in a portal will allow you to defeat said enemy. Read More...

PAX East Interview: Charlie Murder

PAX East Interview: Charlie Murder

by Matt Waitt [ Tuesday, 26th of March 2013 - 08:48 PM ]

On day one of PAX East I had the privilege to snag James Silva and Michelle Juett Silva, the punks behind SKA Studios, and pulled them aside for an interview. We talked about their upcoming game Charlie Murder; a Punk's love letter to Dungeons and Dragons with a lot of references and personal touches. We also talked about how insane Boston's roadways are, and much more. Here are some highlights from the interview. Read More...

Let's Get To Know Elizabeth From BioShock Infinite

Let's Get To Know Elizabeth From BioShock Infinite

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 21st of March 2013 - 05:57 PM ]

With just under a week from launch it looks like it would be a good time to showcase one of the main characters from BioShock Infinite wouldn't it? Of course it is. This is why Irrational Games has released the following "dev diary" all about Elizabeth and everything that went into making her walk, talk, and not being an annoying escort mission pain in the ass. If you are trying to be a purist and have as little info about BioShock Infinite before playing the game proper, you don't have anything to worry with the following video. Unless you really care about a small scene were Elizabeth tries to get Booker to dance with her and very basic level scenes. Read More...

Deadpool: The Game Is Looking Funnier And Even More Awesome

Deadpool: The Game Is Looking Funnier And Even More Awesome

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 11th of March 2013 - 08:51 PM ]

Talk about a title that I can't wait to play, mainly for the story and humor. Deadpool looks more and more up my alley with each new trailer for the game. They are just everything that makes the 'Merc with a Mouth' who he is. The following new trailer does not disappoint as well. Well outside of showing some of the game's actually mechanics and game play. I'd be lying if I wasn't interested in how Deadpool will actually handle in game. Also, it would be nice to know what else we get to do in the game outside of crazy combat and gun slinging. Read More...

Let's Welcome The Empusa To God Of War: Ascension

Let's Welcome The Empusa To God Of War: Ascension

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 8th of March 2013 - 12:19 AM ]

Just as they did before with the Manticore, the developers behind God Of War: Ascension have brought us new mythological creature making its debut to the franchise from the stories of yore. Most of you have probably never heard of Empusa before because she is not very prominent in many of the stories that we still hear today. Well none if my memory of my college years serves. Anyway, this servant of Hecate is now featured in the GoW franchise in some fashion. Read More...

What Have They Done To Mortal Kombat: Legacy?

What Have They Done To Mortal Kombat: Legacy?

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 18th of February 2013 - 10:21 PM ]

Remember about two years ago when Mortal Kombat: Legacy made a huge splash on the internet? I do as I wrote a small review about each episode that came out. With each review came more and more disappointment as the story and whole concept moved back into video game cannon from the original concept that re-sparked the whole project. If you are not sure what I am talking about still, look to the very bottom to see the original video. Well now that we've taken that walk down memory lane let's move forward. Read More...

Since its release in 2011, Magicka has given fans all kinds of spell to blow each other to pieces with.

So Many God Of War: Ascension Spoilers It Makes Kratos Sad

So Many God Of War: Ascension Spoilers It Makes Kratos Sad

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 2nd of February 2013 - 03:48 AM ]

It's been a bit since we've had some real updates or news about God Of War: Ascension so it would seem a good time to give a bit more. Screw it. Not a bit more. Let's go ahead and let loose the first 30 minutes of the game, a few screen shots, a video on how they made the Manticore, and the teased Super Bowl commercial. How does that sound? Spectacular is the word you are looking for. Read More...

Before you get all excited about getting a new look at BioShock Infinite, clam down and know that the below trailer doesn't show any new visuals or game play. It does show is a bit of the lore in an Unsolved Mysteries format. So please take note of that before you get all panty wadded and feel like you are getting the shaft. Now that is out of the way, here is the new "trailer." Take a look before we move on here. Read More...

Big Surprise... Lex Luthor In Injustice: Gods Among Us

Big Surprise... Lex Luthor In Injustice: Gods Among Us

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 25th of January 2013 - 11:59 PM ]

As it should come as no surprise, Lex Luthor has joined the roster for NetherRealm's upcoming Injustice: Gods Among Us. Why would he not have been in the game with his Superman/Meta-human hate speech? It makes sense. But either way, with the below trailer he has been officially added to the "Gods Among Us." Like the pun? Outside of that, there doesn't seem to be much more for the title here at all. Read More...

Review: Cognition: Episode 1: The Hangman

Review: Cognition: Episode 1: The Hangman

by Kenton Winkfield [ Thursday, 27th of December 2012 - 06:33 PM ]

I am a lover of murder mystery games, but rarely do I get one that keeps me begging for more. Enter Cognition, an episodic Murder mystery game from indie developers, Phoenix Online Studios. Cognition places you in the shoes of Erica Reed, and FBI Agent in Boston, MA that has the ability to see the ability to see the past of any object she touches. She must use this ability, and several other developing abilities to solve cases and locate murders. Cognition Episode 1: The Hangman starts with Agent Reed and Agent John McCoy racing to a cemetery where Ericka Reed’s brother was taken after being kidnapped by The Cain Killer, a serial killer who kills sets of siblings, a brother and a sister.

Let Me Spoil The First Few Minutes Of BioShock Infinite For You

Let Me Spoil The First Few Minutes Of BioShock Infinite For You

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 19th of December 2012 - 08:16 PM ]

If you followed the link in then you already know what you are in store for. That's right a fancy-chair-sitting, slow-rowing, low action packed romp around the coast of Maine in 1912 in-game for BioShock Infinite. My words won't do it any justice here, so I'll just let you hop on down and watch. Just in case you still haven't caught on, this is the first few minutes for BioShock Infinite. So if you want to experience everything for the first time in March, you might just want to skip the video. For everyone else, there is nothing really spoiled except the first few minutes which play out similar to BioShock's opening. Read More...
