Fairytale Fights bringing hack n’ slash, gore and bunnies!

PlayLogic has today announced a game that has instantly blinked on my radar for the sheer concept alone. Fairytale Fights is the name, and it promises a twisted hack n’ slash adventure as players take on the role of a famous fairytale character and start cutting up bunny rabbits. “Fairytale Fights is a truly twisted hack’n’slash platform adventure where players assume the role of a much-loved fairytale character, whose glory days have long since passed,” explains PlayLogic....

Fake game Friday: Rayman Raving Rabbids: The MMO (RRRMMO)

The specifics of this week’s fake game are probably best left to the imagination — for everyone’s sake. Conceptualized byelectro lemon,Rayman Raving Rabbids: the MMOmay very well have been created solely out of a desire to create an acronym resembling the onomatopoeia for starting a decade-old motorcycle. Gaze in wonder at the Photoshop by our very own Fronz and ask yourself: what wouldRRRMMObe about? How would it play? What different character classes would there be?...

Far Cry 4’s alternate ending only takes a half hour to access

Now we can finally shoot some goddamn guns Alternate endings are a fascinating way to put a non-canonical spin on the tales that we know and love. Sometimes it’s a silly and light-hearted Pentagon piefight. Others are grim, like Dante taking a bullet to the chest on a day when he wasn’t even supposed to be there. Typically, alternate endings are synchronous with the main narrative’s finale, but that’s not the case withFar Cry 4....

First look at Game of Thrones: A Telltale Game Series

Tyrion, Cersei, and Margaery make appearances Every time Telltale’sGame of Thronescomes up, the prevailing comments are always the same: “When will we see what it looks like?” The answer to that question is “now,” and the answer to the followup question is, “eh, it looks like a videogame version ofGame of Thrones, I guess.” Admittedly, the lore ofA Song of Ice and Firedoes not really mesh with the cel-shaded style that can be found inThe Walking Dead,The Wolf Among Us, orTales from the Borderlands, but it feels like something is missing here....

First look at the CG animated Heavenly Sword movie

At least they’ve still got Anna Torv That direct-to-home-videoHeavenly Swordmovie didn’t inspire much confidence when it was first talked about. This trailer, I’m sorry to say, has done little to change my mind. The CG animated film from Blockade Entertainment is due in spring 2014 worldwide and stars Anna Torv as Nariko, Thomas Jane as Loki, and Alfred Molina as King Bohan. Think I’ll give this a pass and continue holding out whatever hope I can that we’ll eventually geta proper sequel....

‘Drunks are easy prey for pick-pocketing’ Kingdom Come: Deliveranceseems like one of those games you can lose yourself in.

It’s been in development at Warhorse Studios for years and years, with a£1.1 million Kickstarterback in 2014. It’s ambitious in that potentially cool, potentially rough-around-the-edges sort of way. And, notably, it’s almost finished — the game launches February 13 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One....

Have some NIER screenshots and wallpapers

Square Enix’s upcomingNIERlooked to Ben Perlee as being a pretty interesting RPG. Based onhis previewand these screenshots, I’m inclined to agree. It might not be the prettiest game, but I’m interested in the more mature themes and the “word” modifier system is intriguing. The screenshots we’ve been sent came with almost no information about them. In fact, we were even teased that while none of these are going to reveal any new data on the game, at least they’d look pretty on your desktop....

Crazy enough to work? I think so. To give one example, your silhouette might be water-logged, allowing you to stretch out your arms so your character can swim through them and over a bottomless pit....

Japanese 3DS sales climb after price drop

Captain Obvious flew overhead just now. He gave me a really bitchy wince from the sky, as if to sayreally?in response to my headline for this article. I threw back a face that combined sternly narrowed eyes and tightened lips as if to say, “fu*k off for today, man.” Nintendo has just passed the 1.5 million units sold with the 3DS in Japan, and they have the recent price drop to thank for that....
