The final frontier will not be safe again soon, Electronic Arts recently mentioned in their latest investor’s meeting that we may see a new Dead Space in our near future. Fans of the franchise have had some time to rest in-between now and two years ago when Dead Space 2 was released, but it may be time to shake off the dust because we may see a new Dead Space by March 2013...
It’s been quite a while since the video gaming public has seen a Wing Commander title from Electronic Arts (Origin Systems, Inc. before them), and in that time span the fans got antsy. So antsy, in fact, that a dedicated group of die-hard Wing Commander loyalists set out to create their own sequel to the once beloved franchise, titled Wing Commander Saga: Darkest Dawn. Set between the events of the second and third game, Darkest Dawn would cover some of the key events from Wing Commander lore — events that fans should be extremely familiar with....
It’s already a given, with Modern Warfare 3 already surpassing Black Ops in pre-orders, that the next entry in Activision’s annual FPS franchise will “beat” Battlefield 3, at least as far as sales are concerned. But, for Electronic Arts, Battlefield’s new run at dominating the FPS genre — it’s conscious effort to go for COD’s crown — this isn’t a blitzkrieg, it’s a war of attrition.According to EA’s European Publishing Senior Vice President Jens Uwe, Electronic Arts’ approach is very similar to what they recently did with FIFA....
Elden Ring’s director has added a few more layers to the game following the long-awaited trailer that stole the show at Summer Game Fest last week. After two years of waiting, FromSoft finally gave the world its first proper look at Elden Ring last week. The trailer was pretty breathtaking and, on the surface at least, was everything everyone who had been waiting for it wanted it to be. However, after giving it a little thought, people started to realize that beyond the stunning cinematics, the trailer didn’t actually explain very much about how Elden Ring’s world is made up....
Elite Dangerous is a space simulator in every sense of the word: even seemingly mundane tasks are given a lot of attention, and mining is no exception. There are multiple combinations of gear, several ships to try, and an ore variety that makes other game’s mining mechanics look like 2009 Minecraft. Heading out on a mining expedition is one of the more lucrative activities for newbie astronauts and experienced players alike....
From JRPGs to FMV titles, 2020 is a year in which I’ve branched out significantly in terms of the types of video games that I play. This has extended to the tactical strategy genre - one that I never gravitate towards due to its demanding real-time nature and the fact that I’m absolutely terrible at those types of games in general. However, Empire of Sin - from developer Romero Games - appealed greatly to me as a fan of classic gangster movies like The Godfather, as well as more modern takes such as Peaky Blinders....
This X-Men article contains spoilers. Event tie-in comics aren’t supposed to be this good. Empyre: X-Men has been highly anticipated since its announcement. This tie-in to Marvel’s big Empyre event was slotted as the first big foray into the rest of the Marvel Universe for the Krakoans post-House of X/Powers of X, but the COVID-related shutdown pushed the book back. Throughout the long wait, readers have been eager to see how the mutants would play with the rest of the world, but I think most were expecting a fun little throwaway series....
As of late Gears of War developer Epic Games has been enjoying a very lucrative relationship with Microsoft, developing games exclusively for the Xbox 360 platform. However, before Gears, Shadow Complex, and Bulletstom, Epic was known as a developer that favored the PC first and foremost. While the days of Unreal Tournament supremacy might be dead — although another entry in the franchise is rumored to be on the way — that doesn’t mean Epic has forgotten about PC gamers, in fact they had some pretty juicy news for them during their PAX East panel....
Every video game’s score plays a role in making a good game great, and the long-running Final Fantasy series is no exception. The scores, which were nearly all composed by Nobuo Uematsu, are now available for players to enjoy even when they’re outside the game, as every main series soundtrack has now been added to Spotify. To be clear, main entries to the Final Fantasy series now have their soundtracks available on Spotify’s music streaming service....
With over a thousand episodes of the anime, it’s impossible to separate the Pokemon games from the other types of media taking place in the Pokemon world. The series has been running on TV for several decades, but has evolved into many feature-length spin-offs starting with Pokemon: The First Movie in 1998. With so many movies, though, only a few of them have received reviews or attention from most Pokemon fans....
The Russo Brothers have had a string of success in the past few years as the directors and creative minds behind some of the most important films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). As good as these films are though, they aren’t the only projects the brothers have worked on. They have been making noteworthy films for nearly 25 years. Some of these films are clearly more praised than others, but all of them have their share of both fans and critics....
The Resident Evil franchise is currently celebrating its 25th anniversary. The debut title came out in 1996 and while the gameplay has seen significant changes and revamps, the lore has never seen a reboot; an achievement for any series. Numerous pieces of Resident Evil media are currently on the horizon, the most appealing of which is the upcoming animated series, Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness. People have known about it for a while, but only recently has Capcom revealed more information about the project....
When you open Evil Genius 2: World Domination, you’ll be asked to make a choice: Vulkan or DX12? Whether you know they are APIs but don’t know the difference, or if you thought Vulkan was just a misspelling of the alien race from Star Trek, this short guide will help. We take a look at both Vulkan and DX12, which is shorthand for DirectX 12, and the advantages and disadvantages of each setting, so you can make an informed choice....
Popular Twitch streamer Moistcr1tikal recently hosted a livestream where he opened up 34 boxes of Yu-Gi-Oh cards in the hopes of pulling an extremely rare card called Ten Thousand Dragon. About an hour into the stream, Moistcr1tikal managed to do just that, and erupted in excitement after pulling the Yu-Gi-Oh card. He then showed his girlfriend, expecting her to share in his celebration. However, Moistcr1tical gets a bit disappointed over the fact that his girlfriend doesn’t seems as excited as him over his successful pull, with her even suggesting that he might have been only joking at first....
Bethesda releases the final video in its seven part series explaining Fallout 4’s S.P.E.C.I.A.L. statistics system, with today’s footage explaining Luck.

All fans of Ant-Man like the movies a lot, but this fan, who loves Marvel so, does not. The Ant-Man series has done remarkably well in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, spawning two movies and important roles for the tiny hero in Avengers: Endgame and Captain America: Civil War. A third movie is also in the works, with Rick and Morty writer Jeff Loveness taking the reins of the script. But not everyone is very happy with how the films’ hard science was portrayed....
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a treasured classic, and despite Nintendo’s unwillingness to bring its N64 catalog to the Switch, fans are taking up the task of remastering this beloved game. Nintendo Life found an amazing video that showed footage of Ocarina of Time 3D in 4K at 60 frames per second. It, unfortunately, doesn’t fill up the screen, but the textures and frame rate look amazing on the PC as they were upscaled by Henriko....
