Original Dead Rising Hinted At for PS4
Dead Rising 4 was announced as a timed exclusive for the Xbox One. For any PS4 players that feel bummed out with that news, Capcom may have a pretty cool stopgap for you. Exophase has released a trophy list for Dead Rising, the original Xbox 360 exclusive released in 2006. They have developed a habit for spoiling game releases very early on, so many are speculating this is more of the same. While ...[Read More]

Blizzard Sues Maker of Overwatch Cheat Tool for Copyright Infringement
Blizzard Entertainment, developer of the runaway hit Overwatch, is not one to shy away from protecting its copyrights or going after anyone who attempts to allow cheating in its games.

Retro Review: Herc’s Adventures (PS1)
Back in its heyday, LucasArts was a premier video game developer and publisher. In addition to great Star Wars titles like Rebel Assault and Star Wars: Dark Forces, George Lucas’s video game studio made and released some non-Star Wars gaming classics like Maniac Mansion, LOOM, and Full Throttle. Although the majority of LucasArts games were confined to the PC, many titles were either ported to con...[Read More]
Fallout 4 mods for PS4 delayed by Bethesda
Bethesda has experienced trouble with enabling mods on the PlayStation 4 version of Fallout 4, and it seems Sony is the one to blame. Sony is limiting the mods to 900MB of space. This is in contrast to Microsoft, which allows 2GB of space for mods. In addition, the PS4 edition of Fallout 4 seems to suffer from poor optimization, which makes the issue worse. Bethesda was ready to roll out a beta of...[Read More]
Battlefield 4 and Hardline Getting New UI

Indie Game Lookout for June 23, 2016
We are back after a one week hiatus. It is E3’s fault entirely, not my poor time management skills. I am blameless. As usual, I hunt around for indie games that I feel deserve a good look. I’ve seen and tried out some absolute gems in the last few weeks, and this week is no different. I still can’t seem to get a weekly theme going, though – well, other than, “these games look awesome!” That will d...[Read More]

E3 Impressions: Sony Conference
There is one trend that has propped up in recent E3 shows that I dislike. Once all the major conferences are concluded, various video game cognoscenti gather up and declare which company “won” E3, meaning what company’s conference was the best. I dislike it primarily because it implies that, despite any good things shown at other conferences, they don’t matter because one conference WON! I don’t t...[Read More]
