Are you survivors still parkouring among the tropical ruins surrounded by the rotting, heinous undead? Dying Light released exactly half a year ago back in January, and Techland is breaking out the "Half a Year Anniversary" party hats! I'm not really one to celebrate half-aversaries or anything, but we liked Dying Light quite a bit, so let's all slap on a goofy hat and enjoy a montage of zombies getting bludgeoned.
Last year we heard about a game with an interesting take on the whole FPS genre. Gunscape combines world-building and FPS elements to create a game that allows players to build their own levels, and then play them with (or against) friends. Originally slated for a PC and Xbox One release, the title will be arriving on PlayStation 4 and Wii U early next year.
PC users, this is the last Monday you'll have to suffer through without your own working soup factory. The PixelJunk team's sim has been in Early Access for quite some time, but the wait has definitely been worth it. Why? Because four player online co-op, that's why.
Welcome, one and all, to a tale as old as a couple months ago. We revisit our heroes only weeks after their promotion from League 2 and the celebrations that ensued. Many of the cast has moved on to greener pastures (the free agency market) to accomplish wondrous things (desperately hope for a contract offer), but the few that remain, those loyal few, they will be the catalysts that spur us on to greater glories.
Howdy, y'all! Summer is starting to close up shop for the year, but that certainly won't stop us from staying indoors and playing video games all day. For us, the weekend holds dungeons, heists, virtual trading cards, and lots of portable gaming. Be sure to check out our very own Eric Murphy tonight as he and some pals stream their adventures in the fantastic indie title, Monaco!
We're so used to zombies just being these big downers; always coming after us for our brains and just generally being not sociable. But what if they threw a party and invited? That would be pretty cool right? Ok, so Zombie Party isn't really about zombies throwing a party, but it's got some kind of crazy rainbow shooting gun so it's got that going for it.... which is nice.
The one year anniversary of Destiny is fast approaching. Last year, we were pretty excited to see what all the game had in store for us. This year... well, we're a bit more tempered. There have been some highlights over the past year, but also a lot of missteps. Developer Bungie assures its community that it is listening and has some big changes around the bend.
We first looked at The Red Solstice over a year ago while it was still in that Early Access phase and returned to it every so often to "check in". The game saw a full release earlier this month and we were interested in learning from the developers just how that much exposure (for so long) helped to shape the final product. Developer...
Hey, you're in the mood for an anime-inspired co-op brawler, aren't you? One of the best in the business just made its way to PS4, and it's ready to assault your face with combo-centric combat and enemies that just won't quit. Say hello to Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds Overdrive, an updated version of Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds just for PS4.
The music and video games industries certainly aren't strangers to one another. Be it through Fez and Disasterpeace, Red Dead Redemption and Jose Gonzalez, or Destiny and the least conspiracized Beatle, the two have found many ways to intertwine over the years. Continuing this tradition is Warlocks vs Shadows, a four player co-op game whose latest update will throw Venezuelan DJ Zardonic into the mix.
The first developer diary is out for Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide, the FPS/RPG from Fatshark. The game is shaping up to be a sleeper hit and something to fill the void left by the absence of Hellraid this year.
Own an Xbox One, Wii U, or New 3DS? Then look out for The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth to release this July 23rd! Grab a co-op partner and dive into the insane psyche of one deprived child.
