One piece of the September update for Batman: Arkham Knight arrives today: The Tumbler Batmobile skin as well as the classic Arkham skin for Batman, and WB Games is teasing the rest of the goodies coming hopefully sooner rather than later in a new trailer. The video gives a glimpse of the Nightwing solo campaign and some challenge maps,…
Cover based shooters existed before the year 2006, a few examples being the WinBack series, Namco’s Kill Switch or even Time Crisis in the arcade’s. Ask most people though what game they think of when they think cover based shooter, and they’ll probably say Microsoft’s big game for the Xbox 360 that year, Gears of War. What I didn’t know is that earlier…
Something I don’t do very often when it comes to writing reviews is to look on what other people have written, a trend I broke with Turok 3: Shadows of Oblivion. I personally really loved the first Turok Game Boy outing, and while disappointed by the simplicity in its sequel, I still enjoyed it much more than…
Revealed earlier in the year, the upcoming game based on the Battle Chasers series, subtitled Nighwar, is now in the midst of a crowd funding campaign on Kickstarter. The developer Airship Syndicate, composed of staff from former video game developer Vigil, who made the Darksiders series, and Battle Chasers creater Joe Madureira is seeking $500,000 and as of this writing they are well…
Back when the PlayStation first game out, I honestly had no idea what it was. At the time there was an arcade that had just launched in Canada called Playdium and I legitmately thought they were the same thing. I had no knowledge of the botched SNES add-on vaporware that never happened, and in my mind…
Back in the short window of time when Sega’s swansong console the Dreamcast was seen as a viable contender, the bread and butter of the software line-up was arcade ports, especially in Capcom’s catalog of games: Street Fighter III, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Power Stone, Spawn: In the Demon’s Hand, Cannon Spike, and the unforgettable Marvel Vs. Capcom, both 1…
Wanting to cash in on the Deadpool buzz being generated from the upcoming movie and not wanting to make a new game, publisher Activision is releasing a HD re-master of 2013’s Deadpool on both the PS4 and Xbox One this November. The kicker? It’s going to be sold as a $50 game, which is a steep price…
It was an undertaking to translate the original Turok: Dinosaur Hunter into an 8-bit handheld game, yet somehow developer Bits Managers managed to make an experience that very much felt like the N64 classic. But how does one adapt a game like Turok: Rage Wars, a piece of software built around fast-paced, twitch multi-player action into a Game…
Growing up as a video game fan in the 90’s couldn’t have easy for a female. Sure, there was Joanna Dark to look up to and even Lara Croft was a no-nonsense, intelligent role model who was just as comfortable in a museum as in a shooting gallery, but all those qualities that made the…
We learned last May that Night Dive Studios was working on updating the classic N64 shooter Turok: Dinosaur Hunter to modern PC’s by giving it an HD facelift. Now it appears that NDS is not only resurrecting Turok: Dinosaur Hunter, but it’s sequel Turok 2: Seeds of Evil as well. While it’s nice that Turok 2 is getting a second lease at…
