There have been more conspiracy theories and speculative discussion about the Grand Theft Auto franchise than any other video games in recent memory. Yes, there have been games - albeit only a select few - just as acclaimed as those in the GTA series. And yes, there have been games (well, game really, in the form of the mega-shooter Call Of Duty) that have reached similar levels of fandom and commercial success....
The first Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 DLC, Revolution, has arrived, and in lieu of a traditional review, we thought we’d try something a little different and provide video walkthroughs of each of the new multiplayer maps. We’ve still included our thoughts on the maps, and how they function as part of the Black Ops 2 multiplayer, but at the same time this is also an opportunity to check out the make-up of each map and see if Revolution’s $15 price tag is worth it....
With so many games entering the free-for-all that is the open-world online zombie survival genre, DayZ resides in the very comfortable position relegated to the game that kicked off the craze. Even so, the implementation of new features has progressed at a slower rate than some gamers may like. To compensate for this development time, some new light has been shed on the game’s most anticipated upcoming features. These upcoming features come in the form of vehicles and barricades, which will add to the already-impressive scope of this early-access title....
After what could politely be referred to as a rocky start seemed to be put in the past, it’s clear Diablo III is still being targeted by real-world plunderers. This time the issue isn’t surrounding online access, but the all-too-common occurrence of another round of account hacking. When Diablo III launched last week, it was sick - infected with server shutdowns, and a game-breaking bug that blocked players out of Battle....
If the recent proliferation of post-apocalyptic survival titles has achieved anything, it’s that they have made gamers yearn even more for the return of the beloved Fallout franchise. It all began with the rumor that developer Bethesda was scouting Boston for the title’s locale. Ever since then, even the slightest rumor in the industry has brought forth ever more hope that the title’s announcement is just around the corner. While it may not be much, a new rumbling has made itself apparent in the form of three separate trademarks for the Fallout series’ instantly recognizable soft drink of choice, Nuka Cola....
In less than a year, Five Nights at Freddy’s has gone from being a cult favorite to one of the biggest new franchises of recent years. That’s about the best scenario you could hope for with an esoteric horror game created and developed by a one-man team. However, that sort of success is always going to attract imitators wanting to get in on the series’ enormous financial success. Now, the creator of Five Nights at Freddy’s is pursuing legal action against one such developer, who released and sold an unofficial sequel using Apple’s App Store....
While pushing digital retail on top of digital-only expansionary content, console manufacturers are proving to be quite short-sighted. On our own PlayStation 4s and Xbox Ones, both systems less than a year old, we’re already having hard drive capacity issues with the growing size of modern triple-A releases and required large downloads and installs. For consumers of previous generation consoles that came with inexplicably small hard drives, like the Xbox 360 Arcade edition and the 12gb PS3s, that problem is even worse if you own one and want to play the most popular titles....
Gamers and DC fans alike looking to get their Justice League fix needn’t look any further than NetherRealm Studios’ Injustice: Gods Among Us, a brutal brawler featuring heroes and villains from the DC universe. All the expected characters, with a few exceptions, are slated to make an appearance, from Superman to Catwoman. However there’s a new pre-order bonus from GameStop that promises to take a select few of these familiar faces and bring some slightly obscure touches to their design, namely their costumes....
Xbox One owners that have yet to spend any money on the free-to-play relaunch of Killer Instinct have had over a month to master Jago’s endokukens and shadow wind kicks. The limited character roster available for free has forced the thrifty brawlers out there to spend all their time in the game’s dojo, survival arena, and online matches battling with Jago. Hopefully, they haven’t grown too attached to the sword-wielding fighter....
The next entry in Rockstar’s series of videos focusing on the design and technology in Max Payne 3 has been released, this one focusing on Bullet Time. One of the key indicators of a Max Payne title, bullet time is an essential gameplay element for survival, while at the same time making the title look cool and slick. For Max Payne 3, bullet time is getting some significant improvements both in terms of its visuals and its functionality....
In the family of EA Sports titles, NCAA Football is like the second favorite kid, the one that can never quite live up to the reputation of the “golden child.” Sure, NCAA provides a lot of the same experiences as its older brother, but, when it comes to importance, NCAA always gets the short end of the stick. Nonetheless the franchise finds a way to stay competitive year-after-year, and NCAA Football 13 is no different....

The Walking Dead comic books, first published in 2003, contain many of the same themes featured in AMC’s current TV adaptation, and even a brain-dead “walker” could figure out that the milieu is ripe for the video game world: crammed in to an epic struggle for survival, it’s got the flesh-feeding cadavers of Left 4 Dead, the guns of any shooter on the market, and the philosophical brooding of Heavy Rain....
Despite the recent stumbling blocks of the Diablo 3 PC launch, Blizzard has become quite skilled at launching games that require constant online connections. The old days of installing a WoW expansion off of two to four CDs are long behind us and with the launch of Warlords of Draenor this week, players should experience an almost seamless transition. Players have been flocking flocking back to Azeroth this summer and fall in anticipation of WoW’s ten year anniversary and latest expansion....
The PlayStation 4 (PS4) is home to quite a few games that are some of the most enjoyable and memorable titles to ever grace our screens. From games that have a classic feel and make us feel right at home, to games that have flipped the table and left an indelible mark on gaming, if you’re looking for an experience you aren’t soon to forget, look no further than this console....
Investing in a quality gaming PC has its benefits, but only with the right games. Some games have improved textures with a high-end computer, but it’s hard to spot the difference with others. Investing in a top-end gaming PC will cost over one-thousand dollars, but it might be worth it for the most immersive experience. With high-end gaming PCs, terms like ray-tracing, frame rate, textures, anti-aliasing, 4K, and more are considered....
Persona 5 Strikers has a lot to love. Getting to see everyone from Makoto, the best girl, to Sojiro again is a plus. The standard Persona formula added in with the action of Koei Tecmo’s Dynasty Warriors works well as a combo too. It might be their best collaboration yet. Positive remarks aside, there are also plenty of things that don’t make sense in the game. Leave it to fans and the culture of memes in order to point these inconsistencies out....
Although the battle royale genre isn’t as popular as it was a year or two ago, that doesn’t stop game developers from trying their hand at perfecting the formula with their own battle royale games. One such contender is Call of Duty: Warzone, which seems to be doing very well as of late. Most battle royale games come with their own mechanics and styles of play that make them feel unique, meaning players have to know the ins and outs in order to play like pros....
The Resident Evil franchise didn’t exactly invent survival horror, but it got the genre off to a rocking start. The series of games spans three decades and shows no signs of fading in popularity, and its vast library currently consists of several new games in the series along with several spinoffs and remastered versions of the older games. The games are known for their blood, gore, and all-around horror. Sometimes, however, the games try too hard and end up making the player laugh instead of scaring them....
In the same week that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 was revealed for the Xbox One and PS4, the legendary skateboarder’s 900-degree turn record has been broken, by an 11-year-old. Brazilian skater Gui Khury is considered a prodigy in the world of skating. Although there is no news on if he will be in the new Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, perhaps he should be now. Khury posted a video on his Instagram, 21 years after Tony Hawk landed a 900, doing the impossible, a 1080....
