In gaming, sales numbers are the king statistic. It is a number that shapes what developers and publishers can do and it is important for each company’s future plans. Call of Duty had, for a long while, been atop the leader board year in, year out, until Rockstar Games swooped in and stole the crown from Activision’s head a few weeks ago by garnering a staggering $1 Billion sales in just 3 days with the long-awaited release of Grand Theft Auto V....

The newest Dead Rising narrative may be of a questionable canonical nature, but Dead Rising 2: Off the Record is continuing the long standing franchise tradition of outlandish outfits and crazy costumes which bestow special effects on players. In fact, Off the Record comes complete with all four of the DLC costumes from Dead Rising 2 on the disc, ready to be discovered within Fortune City. Moreover, Off the Record brings back a classic Mega Man reference by allowing players to unlock the Protoman outfit....

The gaming community gets a bad rap. For every statistic regarding toxicity in multiplayer games or report of anti-social pranking, there are hundreds of players outside of the spotlight who genuinely mean well. Whether they’re speedrunning games for charity or simply helping out hapless newbies, gamers are, for the most part, good people. However, that doesn’t mean that there aren’t a few malcontents out there, and almost every popular game attracts its fair share of bad apples....

The sheer popularity of the online battle arena genre is not to be ignored. Games like League of Legends and Defense of the Ancients (DotA) 2 have been massive in terms of player base. League of Legends has even managed to gain massive real-life attendances, with the most recent League of Legends championship filling a stadium in South Korea and Dota 2’s international championships luring in 20 million online viewers. Blizzard are also testing how far the genre will stretch, with their own MOBA title Heroes of the Storm currently in beta testing....

Even if you haven’t the slightest interest in racing titles, there’s a good chance that you’ve heard of Forza Motorsport 3 over the past few years. Microsoft’s exclusive racer became a smash-hit by its third incarnation, having sold over 5 million copies worldwide. With a long series of DLC packages, the Xbox 360 had finally managed to establish a racing franchise in the absence of Gran Turismo. But that was way back in October of 2009, and 2 years have since passed....

As Rockstar Games continues to ensure stability in Grand Theft Auto 5’s multiplayer component, GTA Online, gamers remain divided on whether or not they’ll be returning to online Los Santos any time in the near future. Despite successfully stabilizing most network connectivity issues and closing down a number of loopholes that allowed glitching gamers to quickly accrue massive in-game fortunes, the developer is still struggling to purge GTA Online of exploits and other issues that have impeded player experiences....

Curiosity may have had a bad rap for killing cats, but today it’s been feeding the internet some juicy details about Rockstar Games’ upcoming title, Grand Theft Auto V. Already touted as being a game-changer for the series, GTA V has sparked a lot of conversation – from its gameplay right down to its logo design. While the game might not arrive until 2013, fans are excited for its eventual release, and some are curious enough to look into the source code of other games to find more information....

Much to the surprise of very few, Halo 4 shattered previous sales records set by every first-party Microsoft title that came before it when it launched late last year. There are few space-centric games that can stack up to Master Chief’s adventures in terms of profitability, and it’s for that very reason that developers associated with the project can be considered a hot commodity within the industry. With that established, it comes as no surprise to hear that Halo 4’s lead designer Scott Warner has been hired on at Visceral Games as a design director for an unannounced project....

Action figures may not be the kind of thing that gets every Halo 4 fan excited, but the new line revealed by McFarlane Toys does shed some light on the game itself. With new designs for the Elite Ranger, Storm Jackal, and a better look at the Spartan IV’s, these new figures and descriptions are worth a look. Any long-time fan of the Halo series knows that simply knowing what Halo 4’s enemies will look like is just scratching the surface in terms of understanding the roles they’ll be playing....

A great deal of Halo 4’s marketing has been focused on the story ramifications for both humanity and the Forerunners, and how the game will kick off multiple sequels to the series. But for those who are far more interested in how Master Chief will be dealing out fate on a person-to-person basis, the new weapons and vehicles should do the trick. 343 Industries previously showed off old and new Covenant weaponry in its own trailer, and now it’s the Prometheans’ turn....

Fans of thatgamecompany have been anticipating the company’s third PS3 exclusive title, Journey ever since it was announced early this year. With the Journey’s closed beta having finally come to an end, thatgamecompany can now give a better estimate as to when the experimental title will release, giving Journey a release window of Spring 2012. For the longest time, and to the chagrin of fans, Journey has gone without a release date....

It’s no exaggeration to say that the Mortal Kombat reboot (aka Mortal Kombat 9) was a major shot of adrenaline for the fan-favorite fighting franchise - and is already within striking distance of three million copies sold worldwide. In addition the game served as a marketing touchstone for director Kevin Tancharoen’s Mortal Kombat: Legacy web series - as well as the backdrop for a potential feature film. As a result, it was no surprise when NetherRealm Studios announced that they planned to capitalize on the renewed interest in the series by rereleasing the original 2D trilogy - Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat II, and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 - as a digital download, the Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection, through PSN, XBLA, and PC....

After months of anticipation, fans of Fatalities were finally able to get their hands on Mortal Kombat X this week. The game is seeing great sales and positive reviews in its first week and players are already tearing through the campaign mode. As players destroy the NPC competition, they will run into a few fighters that are currently unplayable…unless someone know about this mod, that is. As Skyrim has proven over and over again, every time a game is released on PC there is always the chance for some awesome mods....

With six films, an encyclopedia of books, and a handful of games under its belt, the Lord of the Rings franchise has plenty of lore to pull from when someone is looking to revisit the material. Last year’s Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor ended up being one of the best games inspired by the Tolkien world and characters (and one of our top 10 games of 2014), by putting a focus on engaging, unique mechanics and telling a fresh story that casual fans were unfamiliar with....

Beyond being a developer that delivers some of the most popular PC games the world over, Blizzard Entertainment is known for their stunning gameplay cinematic. Though not exactly indicative of the final product, these cinematic usually establish a clear tone, while at the same time briefly teasing the experience in store for gamers. The newest cinematic from the Blizzard camp is the opening to StarCraft 2’s first major story expansion, Heart of the Swarm, and is nothing short of amazing....

TNT Racers is an arcade racer from German developer Keen Games that may surprise many who have lowered expectations of this title. At first glance it looks like a generic combat racer, however once players get into it, they’ll be pleasantly surprised that this game offers a ton of fun in a small package. The title was originally released on XBLA early last year and is now available on PSN. The TNT in the title stands for Tracks-N-Tricks - which might be misleading to some gamers....

DayZ originally started life as a survival simulator. Its creator, Dean Hall, was an officer in the New Zealand armed forces, and he saw video games as something the army could leverage for field training. When it turned out the army didn’t want his game, which started life as an ARMA 2 mod, he added zombies to it and released it to the public. Hall never expected the success that came with the release of the mod, but it went nuclear....

The 2010s showcased a wide variety of amazing multiplayer titles. Among these include a plethora of 2D platformers to include some throwback series with co-op mechanics. Many of these titles came to multiple platforms while several were exclusive to Nintendo’s Wii U and Switch. This past generation offered a generous variety of couch co-op titles. Not sacrificing strong local co-op in lieu of the ever-increasing popularity of online-only multiplayer, these games offer some of the best experiences to play at a gathering....

There’s an unspoken rule about bad guys in shooter games, and it’s showcased pretty evidentially in Rebellion’s Zombie Army 4: Dead War, which is available free on both the PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass this April. Zombies make for the best bad guy fodder in video games. Set in an alternative dimensional Europe where Hitler has raised an army of undead, the game features loads of WW2 weaponry, including rifles, shotguns, pistols, and heavy artillery....
