Hey guys, whatcha playing? Many of us are still wrapped up in Mortal Kombat X, but we're also taking time to appreciate the finer things in life, like tabletop gaming and superhero movies. Let's see what the staff is up to.
2015 is tossing another one of its biggest tent pole games to it's slightly younger brother, 2016. Developer Yager announced via their Twitter page that Dead Island 2 would be delayed until sometime next year. Maybe they need to take another year of speculation on why it's called Dead Island 2, when it takes place on the continental US. That's not an island, people! That's like making a game called Dead Caverns and setting it in a dimly lit parking garage.
For many of the human sub-species known as "Grognards", the classic "Temple of Elemental Evil" module was their first opportunity to get a taste of the excitement, hilarity, and pure death that Dungeons and Dragons had to offer. For those of us who were too young for such an opportunity, WizKids is offering a chance to revisit the horrors surrounding the village of Hommlet in their latest board game, "The Temple of Elemental Evil".
Alright, big news came to indie strategy/roguelike/rpg darling, Dungeon of the Endless, a couple weeks ago. Alongside their free weekend on Steam, Amplitude Studios released patch 1.0.58. It seems pretty innocuous, right? Wrong. God, aren't you paying attention?
As another month draws to an end, this can only mean one thing; what is next month's Games with Gold? The collection of free Xbox games for Gold members has been a cacophony or co-op and this will not change in the month of May with the news that CastleStorm: The Definitive Edition will be on offer.
505 Games announced that it will publish retail Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Payday 2 developer Overkill's upcoming FPS The Walking Dead, due to launch in 2016. Revealed last year, Overkill's The Walking Dead is "a co-op first person shooter with elements of action, role-playing, survival horror and stealth." Like the...
Let's cut right to the chase. The already existing dev tools for the PC version of Dying Light are expanding to include co-op support, among other things. As it was scrawled on the holy PC Gaming Tablets way back in the 1990s, modding tools are the lifeblood of any game that wishes to extend its lifespan beyond the first few months. Skyrim debacle aside, the act of allowing a game's community to expand and alter the original product typically fosters a not only rabid community, but a creative one as well.
Welcome to another Tabletop Co-Op article, in which we unplug from the consoles and take a look at cooperative board and card games. Today, we will take on the roles of a group of adventurers, and set off on a trip. Searching the ruins of an ancient city, our heroes must brave the sand and searing heat to find a fabled flying machine. If they find ...
The "Raid" is finally coming to The Crew! Unfortunately, this isn't a tie-in to the movie sharing the same name, a la Forza Horizon 2's "Fast & Furious", but how cool would that be? Even if I didn't get to control them, I would pay good money to see two Indonesian dudes' gunfight eventually turn into a full bout of fisticuffs on top of my Volkswagen.
In case you haven't caught wind of the News Thunder, Heroes of the Storm is launching for realsies June 2nd. Pretty soon, everybody can attempt to beat the summer heat by lining up to play as Jim Raynor, Kerrigan, The Actual Devil, or one of 20 million Warcraft characters in Blizzard's new, ostensibly friendlier MOBA. If June is just a bit too far away, you could always get your HoTS fix during the full-on Open Beta, kicking off May 19th. Being a Free To Play game, I'd figure pretty much everything is "Open Beta," but whatever. I'm not a marketing guy.
The SAS' story is woven throughout British military history, from their beginnings in Britain's North African WW2 campaign to their utlization throughout the Gulf War. Thanks to Rainbow 6 Siege, players can now get the full "stiff upper lip" experience, which probably entails equal portions of kicking terrorist ass and stifling any and every emotion.
Dungeon Defender II fans should've seen a massive Steam update arrive yesterday, which introduced all new pet mechanics! Not only that, but a bunch of new features makes this patch one of the largest ones for the game to date. By far the biggest news for the game, the "Pets & Dragons" patch finally introduces pets into the ...
