“The people of Gotham need you.” Batman: Arkham Knight is arguably the title I’m most excited for this year, and Rocksteady games isn’t helping to alleviate that fact with this awesome new trailer. Showing off the new Grand Theft Auto V inspired “dual play” mechanic, Arkham Knight will allow you to take control of Batman, Catwoman, Robin, and Nightwing, in a variety of settings. Judging by the trailer, it looks like we’ll be able to...
Rico Rodriguez has caused a lot of problems for oppressive dictators since he first arrived in 2006. This morning, Square Enix and Avalanche gave us our first look at his third go-around at destroying everything in sight. Take your first look at Just Cause 3: Just Cause 3 is the third game in the franchise, starting with the premier title in 2006 and the sequel in 2010.

Halo’s fictional universe is vast and detailed, with stories filling in the gaps between the games and more. In the build up for the series’ next release, Halo 5: Guardians, Microsoft and 343 Industries has once again taken to viral advertising to fill in more of these gaps. This time, using audio diaries and images, we are invited to join fictional reporter Benjamin Giraud as he recounts the history of Halo’s hero: The Master Chief. Join us as we examine...
Gears of War is a personal favorite of mine – Gears of War 2 was the first game I ever owned at launch for the Xbox 360 (with Mercenaries 2 being the only thing I owned before that.) so to say that I’m invested in the series is a bit of an understatement. My Xbox 360 is a limited edition Gears of War flavor, I own the limited edition of Gears of War 2, the Epic Edition of Gears of War 3, as well as the replica retro lancer. Overall, I think I’ve invested...
Much like yesterday, the folks at Star Wars Celebration are getting another big trailer reveal. Today, it is for the highly anticipated Star Wars Battlefront, from EA/DICE. This is the third major entry in the series, but it may as well be a reboot. It’s been 10 years since the last installment, and this will be the first from EA/DICE following their pickup of the series. DICE is the developer behind the hugely popular Battlefield series, known for its huge combat...
During the opening keynote of Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California we were treated to a number of glimpses into December’s release of Star Wars Episode VII – The Force Awakens. From droids to Stormtroopers, Skywalker twins, new faces, everyone’s favorite Wookie, and some spectacularly bad Star Wars themed dubstep, you could say we got to see quite a bit short of seeing the movie itself. Then, right at the end of the broadcast, Director J.J. Abrams...
Video game developers continue to push the boundaries of advertisements for games. From star-studded trailers to the hacked website of a bee enthusiast, game-makers are not afraid to take risks on new methods of building hype for their titles. Still… few creators have taken to updating old games in order to push out hype for their next one.
I’m not going to lie to you, I’ve been excited for Rainbow Six Siege ever since the trailer first rolled on E3 last year. The premise is simply amazing: hostage taking and recovery, just like you always used to pretend to do as a kid, but this time for real. It’s something my pals and I have dreamt of for years, and making it a reality has me throwing money at Ubisoft. The new trailer gives us a good glimpse of some of the gameplay we’ll be seeing...
Many years ago, Barry Villatoro started LevelSave as a place to talk about video games with his friends. As the website grew, so did his aspirations. From talking about video games to informing you about them to reviewing them for you, LevelSave has learned to crawl, then walk, and now it is ready to run. Today, with the pretty new relaunching of LevelSave, we are proud to announce the beginning of a new era. No longer is LevelSave your one stop shop for games. No. Now...
Earlier today CallOfDuty’s Twitter had a weird sense of reflection of people not showing up for work after partying all night; seems like Deja Vu of what you go through every day, right? this is crap. NOBODY shows up to work after i had to stay late? probably partied all night knowing i’d pick up their shifts. jerkasses. — Call of Duty (@CallofDuty) March 23, 2015 Maybe and followers though it was an accidental Tweet by and Activision employee reflecting on...
