The Darkness II review – Linger in Shadows

 - February 7th, 2012
When 2K games announced last year that they were publishing a sequel to the well-received video game adaptation of Top Cow’s The Darkness comics, the news that original developer Starbreeze had been replaced by Dark Sector developer Digital Extremes, the reactions were twofold; disappointment that Starbreeze was no longer involved, but also hope. Hope that the sequel would keep the dark, gritty atmosphere and ... [»]

Borderlands 2 will be a lot less repetitive

 - December 9th, 2011
I have an unabashed love for Borderlands, the RPG loot-a-thon from Gearbox. It may have been short on actual story, and saddled with one of the most disappointing, anticlimactic endings in a video game ever - but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t some of the most multiplayer fun I’ve had in a game this generation. If there is a ... [»]

Ken Levine believes dialogue isn’t effective for communication in games

 - November 28th, 2011
As a storytelling medium, games are very different from books, TV and film. And though BioShock Infinite’s Booker Dewitt isn’t a muted cipher, creator Ken Levine still prefers a bit of quiet. Why? Because in videogames, dialogue is one of the least effective ways to impart information.“It’s always very tempting to have people talk, you know? We’ll do a level ... [»]

XCOM Origins developer diary

 - September 23rd, 2011
When it was first revealed that the new XCOM was going to be a FPS with RPG additions the original fans weren’t very impressed at all and have been complaining to anyone who will listen ever since. Now while I’m inclined to agree with them and feel that 2K shouldn’t have jumped ... [»]

Gamescom kicks off today, and with it we get a teaser trailer for 2K and Gearbox’s first-person-shooter gun-porn loot-a-thon.

Borderlands 2 is all but confirmed

The Duke is back with some parody-packing DLC

 - July 27th, 2011
I think by now we can all pretty much agree that Duke Nukem Forever wasn’t quite the experience we’d hoped for – but Gearbox isn’t done with the game yet, and maybe some new DLC could spice the game up a little. Well, it’s coming in the form of the "Hail to the Icons Parody Pack,” a bit of DLC that takes ... [»]
