The Bandwagon Effect is full force over at Hyrule Warriors. Once series mainstay Impa hopped into battle the floodgates opened for pretty much anybody to come on down. Especially since this title is "non-canonical," pretty much anybody can throw in their bid to commit genocide on bulbins.
The Chilean based development studio, ACE Team, has put out quite the intriguing repertoire of games. Their latest venture, Abyss Odyssey, moves into the world of fighting games - with its own twist.

We sent out our very own Handsome Nick to get some hands on time with Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel at this years E3, but apparently that is not enough. The new trailer for the game is narrated by the slightly less attractive Handsome Jack and highlights a few of the features in this pre-sequel that are different from the previous (future?) games.
