This should be interesting A From Software-developed dark sci-fi RPG is the stuff of dreams for me, and based on the concept forImmortal: Unchained, I’m not the only one to feel that way. Toadman Interactive has taken that general idea and run with it. The end result? A “Souls-inspired shooter” for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. “It’s far from a reflex shooter,” says designer Sebastian Thorwaldsson in a tidbit-filledPlayStation Blog post....
Still looking good and now on Kickstarter The proper way to save a space whale from space-whale disease? Why, hop inside the magnificent beast and melt the parasitic sickness away with a flamethrower, of course! Just as nature intended. This isBlubber Busters, a PC action-platform game that Iagree with Stevenis fun to say out loud. I dearly hope it comes out of Kickstarter successful. The art is done well, the music by Chris Christodoulou (Risk of Rain) sounds great as always, and the setting is original....
Go figure This past weekend on the PC version ofMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, the “Nuclear Disarmament” event was triggered. For those unaware, this is one of the “hidden” events in the game that was to be unveiled once users online disarmed all of their nuclear weapons. It was supposed to be a moment where gamers could come together and realize that violence isn’t the answer. Obviously that hasn’t occurred, so why did the event trigger?...
Where are you? In a hella-expensive game I have no idea what to expect withLEGO Dimensions. So far it seems like a “me-too” type situation, and hot damn, the add-ons look expensive as hell. But of course, the properties involved (14 in all so far) are just insane. I mean, this is as close as we’ll get to a possibly goodSimpsonsgame in years. Another amazing addition (for me at least) isScooby Doo, and this new cartoon short promoting the game really sells it....
It’s all about more options Approximately a month ago, Microsoft revealed that it was releasing a new Xbox One SKU — a package that was $400 anddidn’t include a Kinect. A lot of people interpreted this as the beginning of the end for Kinect, a sign that Microsoft was no longer intent on pushing it as integral to the Xbox experience. In an interview with Redmond Game Studios’ general manager Matt Booty, he commented that he thought this move was actually the best case scenario for Kinect, especially with regard to developers....

Hardly any communication at all Pokemon Gois a phenomenon. Even people who can’t name any of the original 151 creatures outside of Pikachu are playing it, walking around their office complexes in suits trying to find that “brown fox” over in the corner of the building. It’s a heartwarming, wonderful social experiment that gets people out of the house and forces us to interact with strangers. In that sense, it’s a success....
If you were expecting PS3 exclusiveHeavy Rainto arrive some time this year, you can think again. Geoff Keighley Who Hates Bloggershas confirmed that, despite Sony’s David Reeves calling it the most important title of 2009, Quantic Dream’sHeavy Rainwon’t see the light of day until 2010. While this news will be seen as very expected by some, it doesn’t take away from the fact that Sony’s apparent hot year of exclusive titles has been a little disappointing compared to what we expected at the top of 2009....

So stop your grumbling! Pocket Rumblehas been in the works for longer than some of our readers have been alive. Development on the game was just heating up when its team was onSup Holmes back in 2014, a couple of years ahead of itsEarly Access release on Steam. Then last year, it was announced for Switch with a tentative March 2017 release date. Of course, March came and went and the game was nowhere to be seen....
The journey of the federation since it was established has been significant. I always had big dreams to do something great, but you’re never certain of the chances of that vision and ambition being fully realized – now what I’m seeing, however, is beyond my expectations. It’s perfect. The biggest challenge we faced in the beginning was how to fulfil the demands of basically two thirds of the Saudi Arabian population....
