Konami’s Castlevania series offers a gothic-horror experience that dates back to 1986. From its humble 2D roots on the NES to its releases on the DS and PS2, Castlevania began to write its own story. Going from the Belmont line slaying Dracula, the demon lord’s everlasting revival became a philosophical question of human good and evil. Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night began the trend of turning Dracula’s role into that of a necessary, lawful evil....

If you’ve played Dungeons and Dragons with different groups, you’re probably quite familiar with the presence of house rules. These are rules not listed in the Dungeon Master’s Guide, Player’s Handbook, or anywhere else. No matter where these house rules may have originally come from, some DnD groups add these rules to their game. House rules are a great way to tailor your tabletop experience into the game you’ve always wanted, whether that be a classic sword and sorcery campaign, or something more akin to the popular adventures of Marvel’s superheroes....

A few weeks back, a Twitter user by the name of Nibel shared a screenshot from the Taiwanese ratings board, which seemed to suggest that Spyro: Reignited Trilogy was coming to the PC. While seeming to be credible, there was no confirmation from Activision on the matter… that is, until now. With many iconic game titles making their way to the PC for the first time, it seemed only a matter of time before Activision Blizzard would follow suit with the Spyro franchise....

The gaming service nobody asked for and the one that Valve Co-founder Gabe Newell believes isn’t doing anything new or “super well” yet is making money for Electronic Arts. During an investor’s call yesterday and as reported in EA’s SEC filings, some interesting numbers were shared regarding Origin and its flagship game, Battlefield 3. Among the information shared, several new games were confirmed, including a new Dead Space coming within the fiscal year, another Need For Speed coming this fall, a new version of Bejeweled and several more Play4Free games which have been earning the company an average of $2 million per week....

Much like FIFA 12’s physics engine has now outpaced Madden’s so will the soccer franchise usher in the era of the PlayStation Move with its next iteration, FIFA 13. But, unlike many gamers’ preconceived notions of the move, FIFA 13’s support for the peripheral will not be classified in the “gimmick” category. Instead EA Sports are actually taking a long hard look at the peripheral — learning from other’s missteps — and trying to develop something that preserves the twitch-based gameplay we love in FIFA....

Red Dead Redemption 2 has only been out for a few days but has still managed to become a powerhouse like its predecessor and other Rockstar projects such as Grand Theft Auto. In fact, the reviews for the game have it tying with Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto series as some of the company’s best-reviewed games. This isn’t likely a surprise to many, but the game’s extensive and thorough list of banned words might be....

Okay, it’s time I give one of these trivia pieces a shot. What better way to start then on one of my favorite franchise of all time? When I say that I pretty much just mean the current reboots starting with Fallout 3. It’s not that I don’t like the games previous, but I’ve never owned a PC. When I did get a computer it was a Mac and strictly one for school....

Ever since Fallout 4’s not-so-surprising reveal at Bethesda’s first-ever E3 2015 press conference, fans of the post-apocalyptic RPG have undoubtedly been peppering their excitement for the title’s impending release into practically every conversation they’ve shared with a fellow gamer. Such enthusiasm is definitely warranted, for the last installment in the franchise – Fallout: New Vegas – came out a little less than five years ago. Plus, with so many new features being added to the game, such as the ability to craft and customize weapons, armor, and settlements, it’s no wonder fans are jonesing to jump back into the Wasteland once again....

Starting on May 25, 2017 and lasting through May 28, 2017, Xbox Live Gold Members and Steam users will be able to play all of the title’s base content and can try out mods at no cost for the first time ever....
