15 Things About Fromsoftware Games That Everyone Loves

Over the past decade, FromSoftware has become renowned for its groundbreaking intellectual properties. These developers have been making games for much longer than that, but their true popularity began to rise when they rescued the original Demon’s Souls from the abyss of development Hell. Following this, they created the first Dark Souls game, which took the world by storm. This company has since made such novel games with immensely loveable qualities that fans simply cannot get enough....

Amazing Spider Man 2 Game Trailer Teasing Future Movie Characters

Movie tie-in games are often a dubious prospect - relying on cross-medium buzz, not quality gameplay, to sell a rushed product. Development turnaround on tie-games is notoriously tight and often lack the necessary insight into the larger film production needed to deliver a well-rounded product with meaningful (as opposed to superficial) connections. To that end, developers of superhero movie games often pull from subordinate source material characters that stand little chance of actually being incorporated into future films....

Assassin S Creed 3 Director Talks Challenge Of Following Ezio

The wait for Assassin’s Creed 3 has ended, met with a tempered, yet undeniably positive reception to Ubisoft’s foray into the colonial world of the American Revolution. In terms of setting, historical events, and patriotic touchstones, the Italian Renaissance is more than a little outmatched by the founding of the United States of America. But in terms of protgaonists, the fight wasn’t such a given beforehand. Connor Kenway has big shoes to fill after Ezio Auditore walked the world with them through three games, winning the affections of the gaming public along the way....

Attack On Titan Series Finale Trailer Teases The Most Epic War Yet

Ahead of what appears to be its last episode ever, Attack on Titan Final Season has released a brand-new explosive trailer that will surely have viewers on the edge of their seats.

Bloodforge Review

Sometimes, the sheer joy of a hack-and-slash game is just what the doctor ordered. Microsoft Game Studios, in partnership with Climax Group unveils Bloodforge where one stag-skull wearing muscled-out dude, wielding very large weapons, is pit against hordes of Celtic-inspired foes. It’s relatively brainless, requires very little skill, but it’s immensely fun.

Castle Crashers Makes Its Way To Pc Next Week

Chances are you’ve heard of Castle Crashers. The Xbox Live Arcade title was thrust into the spotlight shortly after launch, becoming a best seller for developer The Behemoth while also solidifying XBLA as a go-to platform for indie developers. Now, four years after its initial release, the game will finally be made available on PC. Castle Crashers will release via Steam on September 26th, 2012, for both Mac and Windows (sorry Linux users), and will offer cross-platform play....

Destiny Update Will Remove Vanguard And Crucible Commendations

While Bungie has made some smart additions to Destiny in the time since launch, they have also made some equally confusing ones. More specifically, the developer took the game’s complex (some would even call it convoluted) currency and consumable selection and made it even more so. And although it’s true that the House of Wolves DLC will add new upgrade materials, consumables, and currencies into the mix, it will also render a few others obsolete....

Destiny Won T Let Players Trade Or Sell Loot

Even though there’s still a few days left before the launch of Destiny – on current-gen and last-gen platforms – developer Bungie seems pretty adamant about letting the game speak for itself. They’ve done their due diligence, even releasing a launch trailer for the game and teasing a few previously unknown features and modes, and now they want the game to speak for itself on September 9th. Since Destiny is all about discovery, Bungie prefers that gamers learn the ins and outs of their upcoming game first hand....

Grand Theft Auto 5 Map Allegedly Leaked Online

It is exactly a week until those those who have pre-ordered copies of Grand Theft Auto V will finally get to move into Los Santos. It was a mere five years ago that we were oogling over the vastness, size and detail of Liberty City, but since then, there have been rumors that the map for Los Santos would be as big as all the other GTAs combined. After a few questionable ’leaks’ of the map, today saw another, and it looks pretty convincing....

I Cannot Stop Hunting Minions And Mounts In Final Fantasy 14

I’ve got an unwieldy pile of Final Fantasy 14 artbooks and soundtracks. In that stack lies nearly every single one of them from launch except for one, which still drives me mad to this day. I’ve always collected artbooks of my favorite games, so that’s no big deal, but if I could forgo the soundtracks and trade for the digital editions, I would. “Just buy the damn digital edition then,” you might say, but I can’t....

Mass Effect 3 Reckoning Dlc News Coming Late Next Week

Thankfully, the developer is calling all hands on deck, and bringing all of their most prestigious writers on board to send Commander Shepard out in style. This final piece of DLC, supposedly titled Reckoning, is said to feature some form of cooperative element, and will factor singleplayer decisions into the multiplayer....

Star Trek Trailer Talks Story New Characters

With Star Trek fans getting excited for this summer’s Star Trek Into Darkness, gamers are also being given a chance to spend more time with Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto) as well. But instead of a tie-in game for the sequel, Digital Extremes has developed something of an ‘in-between-quel.’ Filling in the time between J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek reboot and this year’s sequel is no small request, so the developers have turned to screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman for story, and game writer Marianne Krawczyuk (God of War, Shank)....

Ubisoft showed up to E3 2013 with a suitcase full of exciting game trailers for fresh additions to long-standing franchises like Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, and brand new IPs including open-world action-adventure Watch Dogs. Buried in the mix was a trailer for a free-to-play fantasy RPG, bearing the tongue-in-cheek title The Mighty Quest for Epic Loot. The game is currently in closed beta, but Game Rant had the opportunity to roll up its long, mystical sleeves and get stuck into the serious business of questing....

Yakuza: Dead Souls is really a grand departure from the franchise PlayStation gamers know and love, bringing an emphasis on gunplay to the series for the first time, as well as a zombie infestation of Tokyo, and well… let’s just say this is a very different Yakuza game than players are familiar with. However, some things still haven’t changed, such as the four playable characters present in Yakuza: Dead Souls: Goro Majima, Ryuji Goda, Shun Akiyama and Kazuma Kiryu....
