Insomniac games, the makers of the PS3 exclusive Resistance trilogy and more recently, Fuse, revealed their next game earlier today. It’s an Xbox One exclusive titled Sunset Overdrive. The game looks wacky, colorful and insanely over-the-top — it also has parkour and monsters, so that qualifies it for coverage here, right? Right? I thought so…. Read More
Capcom has finally revealed Dead Rising 3, not through a CG trailer, but through six gorgeous minutes of in-game footage. I’ve never been a huge fan of the franchise, mainly because of the annoying time limit and excess of camp. If what they showed off earlier today is anything to go by, that will definitely… Read More
Today, the Master Chief channeled his inner Jedi in a gorgeous debut trailer for Halo 5, coming exclusively to Xbox One.

At Microsoft’s pre-E3 press conference From Software showed more of the upcoming Dark Souls II, the follow-up to two of the most critically acclaimed, and unexpected hits of this generation. It looks gorgeous, terrifying, and the gargantuan boss fights are back. Really, that’s all I need from this series. That, and maybe a few back-up… Read More
To the surprise of no one, Minecraft will be coming to the Xbox One. The game will make use of the new hardware by bringing with it a significantly larger world to explore, one I sincerely hope is brimming with every feature PC gamers are currently enjoying. So far, Minecraft has sold over six million… Read More
In Watch Dogs, human trafficking is very, very bad. Bad enough for Aiden to take time out of his day to ruin yours. In this new trailer we get to see anti-hero Aiden Pearce do just that. All he needs is a cell phone, a gun, and a stylish trench coat. For the unfamiliar, Watch… Read More
What originally started out as an iOS exclusive, developer Psychoz Interactive has confirmed that Forgotten Memories is now coming to the Wii U and PS Vita later this summer. Good thing too, because neither console has a terribly impressive library of horror games right now. The game takes place in an abandoned psychiatric hospital —… Read More
With the annual E3 insanity prepping to kick off tomorrow, that’s understandably on a lot of our minds. We have a week’s worth of big headlines to look forward to, making today a sort of ‘calm before the storm.’ I say we enjoy this relative calmness by sitting down and enjoying some amazing cosplay of… Read More

The year’s biggest gaming expo is just around the corner — June 11-13 — and while we won’t be there in person, you can guarantee we’ll be covering it from the safety of our homes (I hate wearing pants, so it all works out) just as we’ve done in the past. This year is going… Read More
I hope you’ve adequately prepared yourself for what is destined to become the biggest E3 in nearly a decade. After enduring the longest console generation in the history of this wonderful industry, my body is ready — it aches — for some new consoles. I’m looking forward to seeing what the PlayStation 4 looks like,… Read More
Boston based indie developer Avidly Wild Games is working on a game that brings together The Binding of Isaac and Diablo, with a Tim Burton-esque art style. It looks incredible, even though I’m already positive it’ll be one of those games I never finish. I’ve been playing survival horror games my whole life, so I… Read More
Undead Labs’ post-apocalyptic XBLA title State of Decay, which released on June 5th, has already sold over a quarter of a million copies.

Ready for some bad news? Good, because if you’re planning on getting and Xbox One, I have lots of it. Seeing the near-unanimous confusion surrounding their next console, Microsoft decided to clarify their position on trading in used games, loaning games to friends, the always-on Kinect and the Xbox One’s required Internet connection. Sounds good,… Read More
Yes, Garrett, I did miss you. If you ever go away for that long again, I will destroy you. The long awaited and often rumored Thief reboot will be at E3, and if Eidos knows what’s good for them they’ll make sure their E3 presence includes some actual gameplay. Even without in-game footage, it’s always… Read More
Telltale games has been teasing something related to their episodic series based on The Walking Dead. I figured it’d be related to the mysterious project they’re working on to keep us busy until the second season kicks off this fall. If a recent update to The Walking Dead: The Game on Steam proves true, it… Read More
A couple weeks ago, the makers of Dead Island unvieled Dying Light, a next-gen horror game where you’re outrunning the undead. It sounded familiar to anyone who’s played Techland’s other zombie game, and while there are definite similarities, I have to say, I am extremely pumped for this game. If the Mirror’s Edge style parkour… Read More
Zombie Studios, the makers of the Saw video game series, have been hard at work on their next project, a horror game called Daylight.

The zombie genre is bustling right now. You can’t turn a corner without bumping into a Resident Evil, The Walking Dead, DayZ, Lollipop Chainsaw, ZombiU, The Last of Us, Dead Island, etc. Some might even say there are too many zombie games out there right now, that the market has, or is about to become,… Read More
I’m really liking what Square Enix has been dipping their fingers into lately. Particularly the reboot of Tomb Raider. But recently Murdered: Soul Suspect has had my attention. And if you know me at all I’m a huge Final Fantasy fan, so that of course. This year at E3 Square Enix is giving everyone a… Read More
About a week ago, Acid Wizard Studio’s “surreal horror” game Darkwood hit its goal.

Will they throw a bone to everyone else who buys the game now… Read More
