Back in February, I did Part I of my impressions of Wildstar from an MMO Co-Opportunities point of view. It’s June now, and the game officially launched two weeks ago. What does that mean? It’s time for Part II!...
Day 3 was just as packed as the rest of the show and we had a blast chatting with Ted Price of Insomniac Games about Sunset Overdrive. We hit up Activision to check out that Destiny joint and some Skylanders Trap Team action. After that was some Helldivers and we wrapped up the day with The Witcher 3. ...
We died forty three seconds into the Helldivers demo at the PlayStation booth at E3 2014. Justin and I looked at each other and contemplated giving up right then and there. Having spent more time on the menu and loading screens than actually playing we had to miss something. So back into hell we dove again.
I've got an entire bin on my shelf filled with Skylanders. I should probably display them proper, but I'd need an entire cabinet to do so. The genius that is the Sklyander series, that mixes real life "toys" with in game content should not be underestimated. It's something both adults and children can get behind - my five year old will attest to that.
Last year I fondly remember seeing the Stronghold Crusader 2 airstream trailer across the street from E3. "Huh, that's a smart way to promote your game," I thought. Away from the hustle and chaos that is the LA Convention Center. As I sat with the folks from Firefly Studios and got a demo of the latest build of the game inside the same trailer I instantly became intrigued once again, not by the promotion but by the game itself.
We're back from E3 and there's only one thing on our minds - Destiny. Ok, not the only thing, but it SHOULD be. AMIRITE?!?!? Apologies for the later than normal post -between E3 post recovery, a power failure, and an internet failure - it's been a rough start to the weekend.
The tower defense genre exploded a few years ago with dozens of titles releasing for every platform imaginable. While the quality of such titles varied greatly, there were a few that stood out on top because of their polish and presentation. Defense Grid, from Hidden Path Entertainment was one such game. The game featured a unique story, excellent voice acting, and slight tweaks on the tower defense formula that made it quite memorable. Now the game is getting sequel partially funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign.
If you've been anxiously awaiting Destiny and own a PS4, then there's a good chance you are currently playing the public alpha. During E3 2014 we got some hands on with the very same alpha, playing with PSN players and show goers alike, but with a guided tour provided by a Bungie rep. Unveiled to us were the ambitious plans of the former Halo developer, crafting a socially connected world with a deep back story and plenty of content to keep players occupied.
Destiny is fast shaping up to be one of the top games of 2014; its pedigree is shining through as shown in the latest extended trailer from Bungie. Witness seven minutes that delves into the story and gameplay of Destiny; and know that it is only a few months away.
And....we made it. Day 3 of E3 2014 is in the bag and we finally made our way over to the South Hall which features all the first party publishers like Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo. The big three were out in full force with huge booths showcasing tons of AAA and indie games alike. Take a short virtual walk through the show floor with some pics - we...
Besides all the hype for Super Smash Bros, Nintendo's Hyrule Warriors had garnered a ton of attention from the gaming community during this week's E3 event. Many fans were excited to see just how Techmo Koei worked both an action-oriented and co-op elements into one of the most beloved franchises of all time. Hyrule Warriors looks to bri...
Of the new titles Nintendo dished on at E3 this year, Yoshi's Woolly World for the Wii U seemed to warm us over with its loveable gameplay and yarn-like graphics. Fans of Kirby's Epic Yarn will be happy to see a stuffed, 3D plush character rather than a 2D version. Stated to be released next year at some point, Yoshi's Woolly World t...
