When it comes to space war-styled gaming, the key to success is always found in the way one bases their maneuvers on. Such is the case of Strikefleet Omega, a new (and free) real-time strategy game released for the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Android devices.
PAX East in Boston is known for giving a hand to help spread the word about indie developers and the games they are creating. Now two organizations are partnering up to bring event solely to promote these under-the-radar titles.
The wait is finally over, and believe me my patience was wearing wicked thin (yes Bostonian accent applied). Ghost Recon: Future Solider is a game I have been waiting for this game since seeing the first video in 2010. My official word: the wait was worth it.
Bethesda was all the hype when it came to the upcoming release of Eldar Scrolls Online, but there is one other title they are releasing later this year that might deserve your attention. Called Dishonored, the first-person title has you playing an assassin with some unique powers.
When it comes to video games involving zombies, the scenarios regarding being bitten never follow canon. It's either your character being immune to the zombie infection, or there's some sort of magical plant that can heal you back to perfect health. Ubisoft wants to change that in their upcoming WiiU-exclusive survival horror game ZombiU.
It's been over six years since we last saw Agent 47. For awhile we've begun to think he had hung up his black gloves for good. Fortunately Square Enix has made the call to the man with the barcode tattoo, and he answered back with Hitman: Absolution.
Those lovable fuzzy bastards have returned, only this time they've taken over their own theme park. Rabbids Land will have players take control of those furry bunny freaks as you compete in mini-games of various tasks, all with its trademark humor in full force.
The tale and turmoil of Sleeping Dogs has been told many a time. It was originally supposed to be Activision's True Crime, before the publisher pulled the plug on it close to completion. Fortunately Square Enix has picked up this title, gave it a new name, and made damn sure that people got to play it. After seeing what I played at E3 there will be reason for gamers to celebrate.
Zombies have become the go-to thing when it comes to threats in the video game world. It took a crazed video game director and a cult filmmaker to add a sort of pizzazz we have never seen in this genre. The duo of Suda51 (No More Heroes, Shadows of the Damned) and James Gunn (Tromeo & Juliet, Slither) decided to have their ideas make sweet love to one another, creating a love child that plays to the strengths of both fanbases. This child would be known as Lollipop Chainsaw, a hilarious zombie gore fest that dared to be different in the best ways possible.
