I’m sitting down, again, at the top floor of the W Hotel in Times Square, after getting my hands on the Oculus moments earlier, I’m now joined by a different crowd of people. Behind me sits two subjects who, had this not been Comic Con, might not have any reason to be here. Juan and Adrian of Team Gotham, a studio of four based out of Madrid. Juan and Adrian are here with me on behalf of 505 Games. 505 Games, I’m told, has such faith in Team Gotham’s...
We’ve all had the plastic instrument phase. That time in your life where you did nothing for days on end besides mash away on your plastic guitar listening to the same four or five songs on repeat. That one Guitar Hero or Rockband game will always be your favorite, and those four or five songs remain engraved in your mind forever, always coming back to you when you pick up that familiar plastic instrument once more. For most of us, playing Guitar Hero is like riding a...
I blame Titanfall. Well… Let me rephrase that. I attribute it to Titanfall. When the shooter launched in 2014, one of the most notable things about it was how it evolved the way players moved. Aside from speeding up the player, Titanfall’s designers added something most FPS games lacked: vertical flavor. The wall running and jet packs let the player climb with ease and added a much-needed shot of adrenaline into a genre that was largely copying itself every...
Tickets for Star Wars: The Force Awakens have just gone on sale (albeit a bit earlier than halftime, like promised) and while I got lucky enough to grab my IMAX tickets for a Thursday showing, not everyone is getting so lucky. At time of writing both Fandango and REGMovies have gone down, with the latter moving at a snails pace. It’ll be interesting to see how many orders went through before the sites went down and how quickly it took for tickets to sell...
Halo’s coming, and coming soon. If anyone knows it, it’s this guys dad. I’m not going to spoil any of the hilarity by describing it, but give it a watch below. Be sure to check out the gameplay trailer itself, too. Maybe you’ll have the same reaction.
It’s Friday, October 9th. New York Comic Con is in full swing and people just like us are overflowing out of every corner of the Javits Center. Not me, though. Not my team. We’re somewhere much different, somewhere high, high above the streets of New York. I’m in space, on a deserted and abandoned space station where I’m quickly running out of air. Shit. I need to find an oxygen tank. I need it quickly. I’ve been told that every movement I...
It seems like a lifetime ago when Microsoft announced at E3 2015 that they intended to bring Xbox 360 backwards compatibility to the Xbox One. In reality, it has only been around four months. Since then we’ve seen a multitude of fan excitement around the feature. This should come as no surprise for a nearly 10-year-old console,which has sold 78.2 million consoles to date world-wide. A lot of 360 owners have huge libraries and/or backlogs that may have made the upgrade...
We had a chance to sit down and watch Lego Marvel’s Avenger’s panel at this year New York Comic Con 2015, and it was great! We’ve recapped the trailers, information, and other tidbits that Tt games dropped at the panel. What we’re seeing here is essentially the biggest Lego title ever created. A feat that while may not seem like much, is actually extremely ambitious.
LevelSave is back, as always, at New York’s biggest gather of nerds, geeks, and all things fun. We’ll be coming at you live on the show floor from various channels. Internet coverage at the con is spotty, so we’ll be doing the majority of our updates via the various social channels until afterwards. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for live updates on our happenings, and follow our ground team on Snapchat for live to-the-minute pictures and...
When I was in grade school, I spent a large amount of time during our recess period drawing, due mostly to the winter weather keeping me from bounding out the door to the playground. While I’m not any sort of art savant, I was pretty good at drawing things young boys draw. Space ships. Dinosaurs. Sonic the Hedgehog levels. Yeah, I was a SEGA kid for the most part, and my love for Sonic has never wavered. I wasted plenty of paper learning to draw the characters and...
