Batman: Arkham Origins Teaser Released – Batman Begins…Again

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. The latest installment in a popular series is going back to its roots, and taking us back to where it all began. Yawn. On the other hand, this is Batman we are talking about here so at the very least I’m intrigued. Today, Warner Bros. has released a teaser trailer for Batman: Arkham Origins. According to the press release, this game “introduces an original prequel storyline set several years before the events [...]

EA Does Away With Online Passes, Cites Player Feedback

Players spoke and EA (finally) decided to listen! EA’s use of online passes is a thing of the past, according to an interview with GamesBeat. John Reseburg, senior director of corporate communications at EA, announced via email that no future EA games will have content restricted by online passes. Online Passes were designed as a way to combat profits lost to the used game market. In the case of EA, online passes often locked features like access to online multiplayer modes behind [...]

Super Metroid On Sale On Wii U Virtual Console

Super Metroid is one of those Nintendo games that is timeless and is widely considered one of the best games ever. With the lackluster pickings on the Wii U’s virtual console, it even has the distinction of being one of the best games available on the Wii U. In recognition of the 30th anniversary of the original Famicom, Super Metroid is on sale for 30 cents starting today and continuing for 30 days. This is the perfect chance for all [...]

 

Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag Gameplay Trailer – Exactly What You Think It Is

Assassin’s Creed is a series in which there are about a hundred reasons why I should be crazy about it, but it just doesn’t quite click with me. Thankfully for Ubisoft, my preferences don’t represent the majority of video game fans because every new one they churn out comes up solid gold. The latest installment, entitled Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, features a new character named Edward Kenway. Kenway is a member of the British Navy in the early 1800s, [...]

Payday 2 Releasing On Physical Copies In August

On paper, Payday: The Heist seemed like it would be the perfect opportunity for gamers to get a chance to live the Ocean’s 11 lifestyle and had us master criminal types at the Twinfinite office foaming at the mouth. Unfortunately (or fortunately for real life banks), we make the worst crack team of thieves ever.  Even more unfortunate were the confusing controls, extremely long missions, and the bland gameplay that plagued the finished product and left much to be desired. The sequel is slated to fix all [...]

Magnetic by Nature: Awakening Review – Not So Attractive

It might be easy to say all it takes to make a good game is a good idea. Magnetic by Nature: Awakening by Tripleslash Studios is a magnetism-based momentum platformer available through Xbox Live Indie Games, wherein you dodge saw blades, glide from magnetic conduit to another, reinforcing that it takes more than just an idea. This simple puzzle platformer clocks in at about an hour and a half, and while some moments are clever enough to surprise you, it is mostly [...]

Journey Beneath the Land of Ooo in the New Adventure Time Game

Pendleton Ward, D3 Publisher, WayForward Games, and Cartoon Network are once again uniting for a sequel to the 3DS game based on the hit animated series, Adventure Time, with yet another crazy awesome subtitle. Also, this time, the new Adventure Time game will be going multi-platform. Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW! will be making its debut on the WiiU, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Nintendo 3DS.

The Greatest of a Generation

With the PS4, Ouya and Xbox whatever on the horizon, the excitement, energy and emotion is starting to froth back up among gamers. We have the next generation already here with the Wii U, so everybody around the office felt its time to get reminiscent. It istime to look back at the best of the generation. This was like pulling teeth to get everybody to choose that one and only defining piece, but finally we all settled on the games that [...]

Doritos™ Land: A Post-Apocalyptic Vision of the Future

You’re trapped in a virtual rat’s maze and there’s no getting out. Of course, it’s not really you, not your physical body anyway: we’ve all been reduced to cheesy, poorly animated avatars. No one knows why we’re running through this deadly obstacle course, nor why we’re competing against each other for the fastest times. Who are these other people? Is this some sort of test? What do you even win if you get first place? Perhaps you get to stop? [...]
