Hearing that there’s a new XCOM game in development wasn’t a surprise, but it was welcome news regardless. As a gigantic fan of the original, I’m extremely hopeful and was very much looking forward to taking its appointment at this year’s E3. The demo presented at 2K’s booth, which since then has hit YouTube in its entirety,…
This year’s E3 could be considered one of the biggest showings for fan favorite franchises to make a return. In Mad Max‘s case, 2015 has been a fantastic year so far. Fury Road, the first film in the franchise in almost thirty years, has gotten an amazing reception that’s helped pump up interest for the upcoming game…
Out of the many games we got to see at E3 2015, the one I took the most for granted was LEGO Dimensions. Surely it would be yet another Skylanders-styled collectible figurine game, but this time with a LEGO license tied to it, right? To my surprise, LEGO Dimensions didn’t feel like just another rehash of the same…
The Warhammer franchise was in force at E3 this year. Not only were there multiple games being shown coming in from Focus Interactive – which we’ll also be previewing – Creative Assembly, the makers of some of the finest and possibly the biggest real-time strategy games also had something to show. That something was Total…
I have to admit, so I’ll come out and just say it – I was never a big fan of Mirror’s Edge. Not even close to the level of adoration part of the public was in when it was released a few years ago. So much so that I wasn’t among the screaming crowd that was…
There has never been a time quite like my appointment with the fine folks at Frontier over at E3. It was so surprising that I had to come in for a second time just to play more of the game. But before we get into that, a little on what was actually shown during the…
Going in to see a Sniper game probably doesn’t sound too appealing to most players unfamiliar the series. Admitedly, I was also kind of skeptical about this appointment myself. But after sitting through a particularly harowing and well put together demo that was played to tactical perfection by one of, the members of IC Games’,…
Alien: Isolation aims to right all the wrongs that videogames based on the iconic movie franchise have managed to make over the years. Put together by The Creative Assembly, a group known for hardcore strategy games, Isolation looks to be THE Alien game to look out for. The E3 presentation featured a segment of the…
There’s was no shaking the feeling of déjà vu when I first approached CounterSpy at Sony’s booth at E3. It shares the same running and gunning ‘2.5D’ side scrolling mechanics that Shadow Complex featured, but the similarities stood aside for how CounterSpy sets itself apart when the action began and I started playing. CounterSpy is…
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: you’re in a game exploring a mansion – go ahead and stop me if you want – and you’re all alone in the dark – go on! – it’s really scary and you’re defenseless. Drat, you didn’t stop me! All right, that was a lame attempt at…
