Dead Space 3 is still about four months away from launch, but yhat's not going to stop EA and Visceral Games from promoting it. New pre-order bonuses have been announced for Isaac Clarke and his new BFF, John Carver. If you pre-order Dead Space 3 you'll automatically be upgraded to the Limited Edition. This will grant you access to two new suits and two extra weapons.
Ubisoft have just revealed the full character lineup of their Marvel Avengers Kinect game featuring 20 playable heroes from the comic book universe. Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth is set to be released on October 30th and has players choosing a hero to play as in a fighting game powered by Kinect. Yuuuuup - you're gonna be jumping around your living room pretending to be a comic book character to play this one - it's ok, we know you do that anyway in your feetie pajamas.
Happy Wars, from Japanese developer Toylogic and Microsoft Studios is the first free-to-play Xbox Live Arcade game. With massive 15-on-15 competitive battles and 15-player co-op, it's a strong multiplayer title. But will comp stomping the AI in Co-Op provide an enduring experience? Read on to find out!
That's right, information for the second Borderlands 2 campaign add-on has been leaked. Actually, I don't think "leaked" is the right word - "teased" seems to be more appropriate. Three new Trophies appeared in a PlayStation 3 update when "Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty" went live two days ago. A similar update outed the"Captain Scarlett" DLC when the Mechromancer add-on became available. Either Gearbox keeps on making the same mistakes, or they know exactly what they're doing.
Astro have just announced a new version of their popular A40 headsets. The 2013 refresh of the premium lineup includes a host of new features to both the headsets themselves and the mixamp. This refresh comes a few months after Astro released their first wireless set - the Astro A50.
A big deal was made out of the original Epic Mickey's moral choices, but in actuality how you interacted with the game had little impact on the conclusion. Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two looks to remedy this by reinforcing the importance of Mickey’s magic paint brush in the sequel. Will you create a new world by...
Though Nintendo was shooting for Pikmin 3 before the end of 2012, it looks like it will just make the cutoff of the Wii U’s launch window next year.
Another year, another Call of Duty. CoD: Black Ops 2 will be out in a little under a month. Chances are you or someone you know will be picking it up. The new trailer looks like a Michael Bay movie, and that's not a bad thing for a video game. I just wish they'd go ahead and give this sucker a two to four player cooperative campaign. Why? Because I think it would be neat. But I don't want to tell Activision their business. They seem to be able to move product just fine.
Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 is still happening. I actually picked up the first game and played through a few levels. It's not bad, but it fizzles after a few hours. The fact that Ken and Company handle like bulldozers doesn't help. The upcoming sequel is supposed to address the problematic controls and several other issues. Fans of the magna and anime should keep tabs on this one.
Ratloop just loves launching their Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken games in October. First the Playstation network version debuted October last year, and now the PC version has just launched on Steam. Somebody tell them how crowded the season is! That's alright, though. PC players can finally engage in the action-platformer's 10-stage co-op campaign or the separate 15-mission single-player campaign. What's more, the PC version adds online co-op on top of the previous version's local co-op.
I really like Serious Sam, and had an awful lot of chaotic fun with the PC version of Serious Sam 3: BFE, so when an Xbox Live Arcade port was announced, I was more than happy to check it out. As with most good things in life, it comes with a downside, and a potentially... Serious... one.
After many years (three to be exact) and many interviews (three to be exact) - including a podcast, a PAX, and another PAX; we finally have some concrete details about Monaco's console release. While we previously knew we'd be seeing the game on the PC, exactly which console(s) the game would be hitting as well was a great mystery.
