DetailsThe Paragon v27 patch arrived this evening and it’s the first patch in a long time that’s included some major changes to the core of the game. This afternoon was interesting once the patch arrived, what with the new draft system where characters are selected (and locked out) in turn. It’s not been a problem…
DetailsDestiny will be getting a massive update soon and, rather than wait for an E3 show to announce it, Bungie will make their announcement on Thursday, June 9th.

DetailsIf you’re a horror enthusiast–whether it be horror movies or video games–chances are you’ve heard about Cabin in the Woods. It’s known for deconstructing horror tropes and archetypes, and challenged us, as viewers, to see the horror genre differently. And then there’s Until Dawn, a horror game that’s approaching cult classic status since its release last year. It isn’t as introspective as Cabin in the Woods, but shares a lot of the same self-aware tropes. As a sort of special edition episode, we decided to compare, contrast, and wax poetic about both titles.
DetailsThe first wave of Final Fantasy XV Ultimate Collector’s Edition units sold out very quickly back in March. If you missed out, you will have another chance to get one, as Square Enix has produced 10,000 more. These will go on sale this coming Monday, May 23, the company announced in a blog post today.
DetailsFollowing the announcement of Batman: Return to Arkham, images comparing the original versions of Arkham Asylum and Arkham City with their remastered versions have appeared.
DetailsDespite being one of the biggest releases of the year, Bethesda has been very coy with Dishonored 2 details. While information on most AAA games is drip fed over a protracted period, Arkane’s sequel still carries an air of mystery.
DetailsIn the alternate history of Homefront: The Revolution, America is on its knees, utterly dominated by a foreign invader–its landmarks destroyed, its resources pillaged, its people subjugated. This unsettling future makes for an evocative, ambitious premise, but the resulting shooter can’t quite live up to that potential, in part because it suffers from a larger than average number of mild but persistent technical issues. In the interest of providing a fair and thorough review, we’ve decided to hold our final verdict until I’ve had more time to test the game on Xbox One and PC, as I spent the majority of my time playing on PS4.
DetailsDuring Take Two’s earnings report today, the Rockstar Games parent company was asked if it had any interest in remastering the Grand Theft Auto titles that originally released on PS2. Take Two responded, saying that it “wouldn’t rule it out,” though it would likely decline if it was just “to make a few bucks.”
DetailsNintendo has again stressed that the NX is not to be thought of as a system that will simply replace the Wii U, even if its release will negatively impact sales of that system. Nintendo CEO Tatsumi Kimishima said in a new interview with Asahi Shimbun that the NX is “neither a successor to the Wii U nor to the 3DS.”
DetailsSony has dated its E3 2016 press conference, and it’s slated for its usual timeslot on the Monday just before the conference begins.
DetailsThis year will reportedly–and unsurprisingly–feature another Steam Summer Sale, and we now know it’s happening, if a purported leak is accurate.

DetailsThe bulk of the Assassin’s Creed movie takes place in modern day, the film’s executive producer has confirmed. Pat Crowley told IGN that the film is set 65 percent in the present and 35 percent in 15th century Spain, a ratio that doesn’t quite match up with the games.
DetailsFollowing Capcom’s recent acknowledgment that Street Fighter V had a “lack of content” and “needed more polish,” the company outlined a plan to work on games longer to ensure they are ready for launch. Now, CEO Kenzo Tsujimoto has shed more light on that new process.
