10 Hysterical Stranger Of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin Memes

E3 2021 has come to a close, and though it wasn’t without controversy, the return of the premier nerd-culture convention after a two-year hiatus felt like the homecoming of a long-lost friend. This year it was the press show blunders that caused the most buzz, and few game reveals provoked more chatter than that of Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Teased just before the start of the expo, Origin was said to blend Final Fantasy 1’s story with gameplay inspired by the Soulsborne series....

10 Pro Tips For Halo The Master Chief Collection

Developer 343 Industries had to reenvision Halo Infinite after a backlash from the community. The gameplay trailer’s graphics were compared to Halo 3, despite having a more sprawling world. Of course, players have the highest expectations for their beloved franchises. Halo is the backbone of Xbox consoles. The margin for error is large, but 343 Industries has learned a bunch since Halo 4. Halo 2 pioneered online console gaming, leaving room for improvement....

10 Things From The Sonic The Hedgehog Comics That Need To Be Brought To The Games

In recent years, many people, fans and critics alike agree that many of the newer Sonic the Hedgehog games have fallen a little flat. They just seem to be missing something. Most of the time the gameplay is usual that we’ve all come to expect, but it takes more than that for a game to be good. On the other hand, the Sonic the Hedgehog comic books have a beloved spot in fans’ hearts and have been continuing for almost as long as the games....

10 Ways Tales From The Borderlands Ties Into The Main Games

The Borderlands franchise is rife with references, pop culture nods, and tie-ins to other games in the series. Borderlands 3, for example, starts soon after the Lilith and the Battle for Sanctuary DLC for Borderlands 2, while the praised Tales from the Borderlands takes place between the two. After Telltale Games went out of business, for a while it was incredibly difficult to get a copy of Tales from the Borderlands....

13 Sentinels Aegis Rim Has One Of The Best Gaming Stories In Years

Not enough people talked about 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim when it released last year. Sure, a few people in my weeaboo circles sing its praises, and it’s performed reasonably well both in Japan and abroad, but even still, it isn’t getting the recognition it truly deserves given everything it achieves. VanillaWare’s ambitious narrative adventure is a triumph, both an homage to classic sci-fi storytelling and an approach to narrative in games that is wildly ambitious, while also setting a new benchmark for layered character development in the medium that can sit proudly alongside the most sprawling of RPGs....

Assassin S Creed Unity Players Reporting Framerate Connection Issues

Preceded by a massive total of 19 other games in the series (excluding Assassin’s Creed Rogue), Assassin’s Creed Unity looked to shake off any potential consumer fatigue by changing things up. These huge changes have included a newly refined motion system and a brand new co-op multiplayer, but it seems the series’ attempts at breaking the mold have run into some problems. On top of the concern that those aforementioned co-op missions would not feature playable female characters, Assassin’s Creed Unity has also courted some controversy by featuring microtransactions and a 900p, 30FPS framerate on all platforms rather than aiming for a 1080p standard....

Call Of Duty Ghosts Track Down All 18 Rorke Files

Activision’s annual cash cow, the Call of Duty franchise, is back again, and this time — the criticisms are personal. Despite Call of Duty: Ghosts being lambasted for its copy and paste approach to cutscenes, samey single-player experience and overall failure to innovate, developer Infinity Ward can at least count on the near-fanatical devotion of its millions-strong fan base. Speaking of devotion, collecting all of the game’s 18 Rorke files takes quite some doing, but with ‘15 Achievement Points, and/or a Bronze PlayStation trophy on offer,’ ‘The Audiophile’ badge is one well worth picking up - as part of your first or second play through....

So, even tough gamers might not think that every blockbuster franchise is deserving, most films have some form of tie-in game.

Fifa 13 Trailer Highlights Kinect Integration Trash Talking

At this year’s E3 among the many Kinect-focused demonstrations that took place during Microsoft’s Press Conference was a demonstration of FIFA 13’s new Kinect integration that allows players to cuss at refs after a bad call. The implementation itself felt more like a gimmick than anything else, but nevertheless EA Sports has released a trailer further hyping up the feature. Along with the new referee reaction feature, the trailer also highlights some of the more useful Kinect-based mechanics, like being able to call subs or switch formations on the fly....

Easily one of the biggest surprises of Sony’s original PS4 reveal was the announcement of inFamous: Second Son from Sucker Punch Productions and the open world superhero sequel quickly became one of the most-anticipated titles of the next console generation. The inFamous series is fan-favorite PS3 offering - so it didn’t come as a complete surprise to see the project announced as a PS4 launch game. However, the dramatic departure of franchise protagonist Cole MacGrath in favor of newcomer Delsin Rowe (voiced by Troy Barker) left more than a few gamers unsure about the direction of inFamous: Second Son - even if the game’s teaser trailer showed a lot of promise....

Ninja Gaiden 3 Slices And Dices Its Way Onto Consoles In March

Ninja Gaiden 3 finally has a release date, or at least a release window. Though the title was developed without the leadership of Itagaki, the man responsible for the past two entries and probably the reason they are so challenging, there is still a belief that Team Ninja can carry on without him. Ninja Gaiden 3 will be proof one way or the other. The game is targeting the currently very busy month of March for its release, and will be released in Wii form some time after that....
