As E3 came and went, many of us are still puzzled as to which company had the best press conference. I personally have been hearing a mix of people saying it was either Ubisoft, Sony, or Nintendo. Rather than let my biases for different companies decide the winner, I decided to go a different route for 2012. I created a grading scale which determined for me who would be the best. The details of the scale are below, but as you can see, the big points were awarded for...
Holy Crap, there’s a lot of new coming out! I didn’t say a lot of interesting news, but a lot of news nonetheless. We figured that instead of making you search the site for all your E3 news, we’d do you the favor of putting it all into one post! Below you’ll find all of the articles we’ve posted while covering E3. As more posts are written and published we’ll continue to add them here and update this post. Now with that out of the way...
In the third session of Torchlight, I explain with clarity of my need for cotions of contentify and do whatever any freak tells me to do. Also, we slip through the Portal!(ortal..) Of Mystery!(ystery..) in search of loot and fame. To the mines!
Last night during Ubisoft’s E3 2012 Press Conference they showed off an amazing looking game called “Watch Dogs,” here’s what we know about it so far: We know that Watch Dogs will be an open-world adventure game developed by Ubisoft Montreal, the same folks who make Assassin’s Creed, Rainbow 6, and Far Cry. Our character is named Aiden Pearce, he appears to be a genius who can hack into most, if not all, of the cities online inferstructure...
So today, Nintendo unveiled Miiverse, the foundation of the Wii U’s interface. Miiverse has a few working parts to it. Before I imagine what is possible on this new type of network, I will list what it is and its announced features. Miiverse is what you see when you turn on Wii U. It looks quite like the Mii Plaza, only a lot busier The Miis that will appear in the Miiverse include your Mii, the Miis you’ve created, your friends’ Miis, and Miis of...
Hitman Absolution is a game I originally looked at as a joke. I’d heard a lot about the Hitman series, and none of it was good. I hadn’t bothered to watch anything because I’d formed the opinion in my mind that this game was simply shit. Boy was I wrong. The other day as I was stuck with nothing new to play I figured I’d try my hand at preordering Hitman to try out the Sniper Challenge – a small 15 minute demo available for download to those who...
In the second episode of Torchlight, I get a new quest and slay a terrible monster. Let it be known across the land that my name is.. Sorsha The Unrecognized!.. Or let it be unknown… Or let it pass without notice… Or something. To the mines!
After the release of Diablo III, my Raven Plays Diablo has been put on hold. That’s OK though, because with Torchlight 2 on the horizon, I want to get you excited about that game next! So I present to you Raven Plays Torchlight: A playthrough of the original (and somewhat imperfect) title precending the launch of Torchlight 2. Rated T for Teen, since I tend to swear. Stick those headphones on, kids! PS. I’m also in the Torchlight 2 Beta, so check back later for...
The Secret World is an MMORPG being developed by FunCom and published by EA. An MMO set in our modern day world with the player faction choices being Illuminati, Templars and Dragon, the secret societies controlling our world from behind the scenes. Evil has risen up in our world in the form of zombies, werewolves, vampires, ghosts and every other horrific imaginary creature ever. As we were told at PAX East, “All the myths are true.” The Secret World is using...
Going into E3 2012, the company with the most pressure to wow their audience has to be Nintendo. The Wii and Nintendo DS are slowly dying a natural death, while Nintendo 3DS continues to wow Nintendo fans with big games such as Mario Kart 7 and Kid Icarus: Uprising. Things look rough for the 3DS as devices such as PlayStation Vita and iPad have taken away a decent share of the portable gaming market from Nintendo. The Wii U is coming out at a time inconvenient to...
