It’s hard to get stoked about GTA3 being released on PSN when there is a mod team hard at work porting the classic crime simulator into the GTA4 engine. Yeah, you heard me. They’re bringing all the beauty of the game’s latest iteration to it’s first three dimensional outing. Here’s hoping they don’t add Roman bellic and his bowling fetish.
The archetypal cyberpunk shooter is back an looks like it may be staying truer to it’s isometric SNES roots…
Forthcoming tactical combat game Shadowrun Online, which we first looked at here (and not to be confused with the gigantically Kickstarted RPG, Shadowrun Returns) has revealed some early game footage, which they stress is a work-in-progress prototype, and you can see that below.
Dude. It’s got Skeletor in it. This one’s a no-brainer.
Whatever gripes a lowly hack like Jim Rossignol might have thrown at the original Darksiders game, there was no denying that it was spectacular and handsome. That hasn’t changed for the next game, the cleverly titled Darksiders II, which casts its web of hypnotic fantasy violence our way in a two minute slice of (mostly) in-game footage, below. I really do like a) the classically demonic demon, and b) that giant stone bastard at the end. Yeah, that’s the stuff.
Just when I think I’ve seen everything the day has to offer, a first-person puzzle game sidles into view, its levels resembling a series of tests. Perhaps there will be a novel method of interacting with the environment? Yes, there is!
Under normal circumstances, I would not be excited about a game called Marvel Heroes. I mean, I love Robert Downey Jr: A Movie About Robert Downey Jr Starring Robert Downey Jr (And The Avengers Sometimes) as much as anyone, but these licenses tend to be about as much fun as being bitten by a writhing mass of regular, non-radioactive spiders.
The massively popular Spelunky has been remade in delicious 1080p-ness for the XBox and PC. If that piques your interest then sit back and let DogVom walk you through the game as he gives it one of his patented YouBigNonce reviews.
Despite being just another game in a long-running franchise, Assassin’s Creed 3 is probably one of the most anticipated games to be released this year. With all the hype built up over the past few months, and especially its numerous E3 awards, a lot of folks are dying to get their hands on the game. Well, if you’re one of them you’ll still have to wait for October 31st. However, to somewhat sate your appetite or make the wait a little more bearable, a new trailer for the game has been released today.
That thing right there? I do believe it’s some form of Moroccan crab man, and its virtual existence forces me to face a very profound dilemma. See, I am immediately curious about every facet of its existence – context within the story, capabilities, linguistic background, favorite food, blood type, opinion on jazz music’s current place in society, what crabomancy actually entails, etc – but, on second thought, maybe I don’t want answers to any of those things.
The first footage for Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs all but confirms that the machine in question is not a belly-tickling porcine laughter factory, so there’s my hopes of a My Little Piglet friendship simulator dashed to bits against a dank wall.
The fifth installment of the DRM free, multiplatform humble indie games bundle is upon us and it’s a beast. Humble Bundles of the past have always set the bar pretty high in terms of gaming awesomeness, a couple of games you’ve heard of, a couple you haven’t, but all intriguing and a price point you can set yourself.
