| | PS3 price drop and more games to be revealed at E3 | 
Gavin Mannion - May 14th, 2012 | With the desperate financial position Sony is finding itself in you wouldn’t think that they’d be overly keen on giving their star performer, the PS3, a price cut and therefor dropping their profit margin even further. However according to Michael Pachter ... [»] |

| How bad is this Ghost Recon Advert? | 
Gavin Mannion - May 14th, 2012 | I’m seriously excited for Ghost Recon Future Soldier, my time with the game at rAge last year was an incredible experience and I really do think this game is going to be one of the best games of the year.
Which is why this advert is such a massive disappointment, it’s not clever or interesting or even sexy.It’s just trashy ... [»] |

| Dishonored’s coming in October | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 11th, 2012 | Last month, the debut trailer for Dishonored, the neo-victorian stealthy, stabby and magical first-person action adventure captured a lot of people’s imaginations. From the studio behind Arx Fatalis - and with people who’ve worked on games Half-Life 2, BioShock and Deus Ex - Dishonored oozes atmopshere. You’ll play as a supernatural assassin who’s trying to clear his name of murder charges (so you’ll...uhh…be killing people to not take the rap for killing ... [»] |

| Ass-kicking kung-fu action with Sleeping Dogs combat trailer | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 11th, 2012 | Last month, I had a little hands-on time with Sleeping Dogs, the new Hong-Kong based open-world sandbox crime and probably a few other adjectives action game from Square Enix and United Front Games. In it, I detailed how the hand-to-hand, melee combat was fluid and fantastic - and far removed from the simple hand-to-hand combat you’d find in similar games. It’s also pretty damned brutal - allowing you to ... [»] |

| Max Payne 3 launch trailer | 
Gavin Mannion - May 11th, 2012 | It’s a day for launch trailers (Tinfoil hat firmly wedged on) and now only moments after I saw the Assassin’s Creed 3 gameplay premier I see that the Max Payne 3 launch trailer has been released in all its glory.
Now unlike the AC3 video which depicted alpha gameplay and effects this ... [»] |

| Amazing Assassin’s Creed 3 gameplay premier | 
Gavin Mannion - May 11th, 2012 | Earlier this week we posted up the news about Ubisoft wanting 1 776 000 people to talk about the gameplay premier of Assassin’s Creed 3 before they’d release the footage.
Well apparently that mark has been reached as the world premier of the Assassin’s 3 gameplay footage is out and I have ... [»] |

| Dragon’s Dogma’s first event has the world slaying a mighty…dragon | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 10th, 2012 | Yesterday, Capcom opened the lid on Dragon’s Dogma’s Event Mode - which will allow players and their AI pawns all over the world to tackle a single, great beast in an odd sort of collective, asynchronous multiplayer. The first of which, available on the day of the game’s impending launch will see players all over the world come together to chip away at ... [»] |

| Prototype 2 review – The art of dismemberment | 
Garth Holden - May 10th, 2012 | The thing about sequels is often that the territory is too familiar, or there is some or other stupid reason for why your hero is stripped of their powers, again, and has to start from the beginning. Prototype 2 avoids this by introducing a new protagonist: Sgt James Heller. Don’t worry, Mercer is still around, but ... [»] |

| Just how well has Skylanders done? | 
Gavin Mannion - May 10th, 2012 | Last year saw the release of Skylanders and at the time I stated that it could be one of the biggest money spinners in Actvision’s stable thanks to quality of the toys, the unique cross platform ability and the fact that it was backed by a solidly developed game. ...

| Check out the new multiplayer mode in MW3 | 
Gavin Mannion - May 10th, 2012 | Two of the biggest complaints in this generation of gaming is that Call of Duty is a generic shooter year on year with no innovation and that map packs are just a rip off.
Well it looks like Infinity Ward may be about to refute both those accusations with one single move. ... [»] |

| So why was BioShock Infinite delayed? | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 10th, 2012 | Yesterday came the crushing news that my most anticipated release for this year, Bioshock Infinite from Ken Levine’s Irrational Games would be delayed until next year. After sobbing for a few hours, I started wondering why the delay was necessary; everything we’ve seen from the game so far points to it already being incredibly polished, and nearly ready for prime time - but it’s coming a third of a ...

| Is Dead Space becoming more like Resident Evil? | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 9th, 2012 | Dead Space was a revelation. One of the games from EA’s stable when the company was really trying to push new IP, it brought survival horror back to light. Taking more than a few cues from the genre staple Resident Evil, Isaac’s mostly solitary adventure aboard the necromorph-infected Ishimura offered a compelling, and frightening experience. Dead Space 2, like later Resident Evil games, took on ... [»] |

| MLG Pro Circuit controller review – Modular Madness | 
Geoffrey Tim - May 9th, 2012 | I’m generally not big on third-party controllers. the ones that ship standard with the console tend to be just fine. In the case of the Xbox 360 controller, there few (save perhaps, PlayStation loyalists and those with tiny hands) who’ll deny that it’s a smartly arranged, inherently comfortable controller, with near -perfect stick and button placement and wonderfully responsive trigger buttons. It’s That doesn’t mean its without its problems.
It’s universally ... [»] |
