The War on Horror Continues, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D Out June 28
Mercenaries 3D looks to continue what the mini games from RE:3 through RE:5 began, with minor alterations such as skill customization, first person aiming and the ability to move while reloading. You’ll also be able to take part in coop games with a friend through the games “Duo” mode, so awkward first dates can quickly [...]
Games of May Solve the Case
Not much wants to go up against Rockstar this month, but there could still be a few surprises out there. We finally have something nice to say about Black Ops for a change, and we’re patiently waiting to see what exactly Brink is. Check out the list of major releases this month along with [...]
The Basics of Brink
Brink has made a lot of promises during its development, and at first glance the game certainly does look promising. Being a class based game seeking to “blur the lines between single and multiplayer first person shooter gameplay” seems interesting enough. Add to that a unique sci-fi setting, art style, and character customizations fills out [...]
Battlefield 3 Does Look A Bit More Modern
This is an interesting year for FPS games. We’ve already seen Homefront fall flat on its face, and Crysis 2 pique some interest but ultimately fly under the radar. EA isn’t sitting still and has been steadily releasing info and video on Battlefield 3, including these 12 minutes of destructive goodness: Battlefield 3 is being [...]
Rage: Dead City Trailer is Full of Tentacles, Slime but Not Considered Hentai
id Software seems to be the developer that pushes the envelope when it comes to graphics, and after watching the latest trailer for Rage, it looks like that envelope just got shoved across the room. Rage is a “directed open world” post-apocalyptic game that resembles the Fallout series in terms of setting and design, but the [...]
I Could Go Either Way on this Outland Trailer
We’ve been highlighting a few stand out trailers for upcoming downloadable titles in recent weeks, however, most of those games aren’t coming out till later in the year. So when I came across this trailer (above) for Outland, I was more than surprised to find out the game comes out soon. April 26th (PSN) / [...]
Games of April Port the Mortal
Things have certainly calmed down since the first quarter rushed every game out last month. What does that mean for April? That means the stand out games are blinding. Most of The Cursed is focused on two games in particular, but we offer up a few other opinions for those feeling a bit adventurous with [...]
Portal 2 Preview: Hungry for Some Cake
Way back when, there was a student tech demo project at the DigiPen Institute of Technology that turned into a game. This game (later) got packed with The Orange Box, which is something that you just NEED to own if you play video games…at all. The game was called Portal and you didn’t kill anyone [...]
Bastion Preview: Narrating Your Way Through The World
If you’re like me, you are getting more and more excited about independent development of video games. With Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network, there are now major outlets for developers to get back to small team development. That is exactly what happened when ex-EA people got together to form Supergiant Games and create [...]
Blizzard Releases 3 Official StarCraft 2 Mods
Blizzard has finally gotten around to releasing its official mods for StarCraft 2 and after taking them for a spin earlier today I can safely say that they’re a solid addition to an already great game. Along with the release of Left 2 Die, Aiur Chef and StarJeweled, Blizzard also released accompanying achievements to unlock while [...]
Hook into Fallen Frontier
One of the main reasons I bought an Xbox 360 last June was so I could finally get the chance to play the solid downloadable games like Shadow Complex. That game didn’t disappoint and I was starved for more downloadable titles of that level of quality. Finally, a similar game has come along and I [...]
Voice Controlled Gaming with Pah! for iPhone
I know when I see all of the waggling going on with motion controls I think to myself, “I sure wish there was a way I could look ridiculous without using my hands while playing a game.” I’d like to introduce you to Pah!. Pah! is a voice controlled side-scrolling space shooter from Lucky 7 [...]
Red Faction: Armageddon Ready to Destroy, Rebuild, Destroy Again
If I’ve learned anything from the Red Faction series it is that Mars is the universe’s greatest sandbox. The series made its mark in the PS2 era with allowing the player to deform the game world around them. Red Faction: Armageddon is the 4th game in the franchise and continues to build/destroy off of the [...]
If Ya Smell What the WWE All-Stars Demo is Cooking
As you might have heard by now, I am what you call a wrestling fan. It’s not something I’m extremely proud to admit because of the stigma that comes along with being a fan of a “fake” sport. But like I described myself in this week’s podcast, I’m a riddle wrapped in an enigma. That [...]
Swarm Trailer is a Little Disturbing
Umm, what was that? If that isn’t one of the most disturbing trailers you have ever seen for a video game, I don’t want to see the one that is worse. First off, little kids screaming about killing and death are creepy. Nevermind the fact that this “girl” was voiced by a grown woman acting [...]
