Nintendo has shown a growing handle on DLC for their games and today you can download the latest for Pikmin 3. Costing $1.99 the new pack features four new stages to the “Battle Enemies!” challenge mode. Much like the previously released DLC, the new stages can be played in both solo and co-op modes with online leaderboard support. Also as with the last batch of DLC, one of the levels is being offered free via a software update. Pikmin 3’s multiplayer, as...
For those of you that bought Aliens: Colonial Marines and have enjoyed the multiplayer (as I have), I thought I would throw together a list of tips. When first entering the world of the Aliens multiplayer, you may feel like, no matter which side you’re playing as, you’re getting decimated. You probably are and for good reason, especially when playing as a Xeno. Playing as a Xeno can be tricky. Which class is best for my play style, which upgrades are best and...
When Sony Santa Monica Studios revealed that God of War: Ascension would have a multiplayer mode, I thought to myself, why would they choose to do this? I’ve been a fan of the God of War since the beginning in 2005. The single player formula is just awesome with interesting puzzles to solve and the epic feeling of wielding the Blades of Chaos. Some of the most satisfying moments I’ve ever had playing video games is just beating enemies to a pulp with the...
Leading up to PAX, there were a few games I had written down as must-plays. Among them were Gears of War Judgement, Dishonored, and at the top of the list: Halo 4. Ever since I got an Xbox for the release of Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts-N-Bolts, I’ve always been a huge Halo fan, and according to game-tracking service Raptr, I’ve sunk a combined total of 673 hours into Halo: Reach, ODST, and 3. Like I said, I like Halo. As I began my Sunday, my only plan was “play...
I have seen a live demo of the solo campaign at PAX East and even had the opportunity to play some team DM as well. At PAX Prime 2012, four of us from LevelSave had the chance to check out Aliens: Colonial Marines newly announced game mode, Escape. Many of us enjoy multiplayer in a great shooter. If you’re anything like me though, unless the mechanics of the game itself are somewhat unique, you get bored very quickly. So upon hearing we were being given the opportunity...
Sony Online Entertainment has been busy working with gamers on the BETA of the newest Free to Play First-Person Shooter, Bullet Run. The wait for release is over, and you can now download and play Bullet Run for free. This game seems to propagate an interesting take on the near-future gameshow style which has been done so many times before. Smash T.V., Fatal Rewind, and Monday Night Combat have all tried the same kind of setting and have invariably met with great success...
And I don’t care! Mass Effect 3’s cooperative multiplayer is amazing and it is largely due to the fact that Mass Effect 3, as a game, is the best Mass Effect that Bioware has delivered. Brush aside all the story drama and you’re left with the best Mass Effect video game in the trilogy. Why? Well it’s quite simple really: Mass Effect 3’s controls are as tight as ever. The gunplay is unmatched when compared to its predecessors and the...
Great news for Demon’s Souls fans. The multiplayer servers have been extended yet again. Originally the servers were going to shut down at the end of May but not anymore. No word has been given as to just how long these extensions are actually going to last though. The speculation is that the servers will probably remain up until Dark Souls finally makes its way onto PCs. However that those are just rumors and anything is possible since Atlus has extended the server...
