The Pixlbit Staff shares some of their favorite games that go bump in the night.
If you get bored waiting for trick-or-treaters to show up at your door, you're not doing Halloween right. There is not one holiday that could be made better by video games, so allow us to refresh your memory with the best horror-themed games to get you in the spirit of the season. Almost all of these are available in one form or another on current generation consoles or are at least fairly cheap -- and be aware that most are rated M.
It's a SNES RPG through and through... now on the DS... in America.
After my five-year-old self was handily beaten down by Dragon Warrior on the NES, I swore off the series -- until recently that is. Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation marks my first true experience with the mega-popular Japanese RPG series. Thankfully my reintroduction has been a smooth one. While I wouldn't consider SNES RPGs a genre in and of itself, games in the genre that debuted on the system all have a similar style and presentation that promoted a far greater degree of accessibility. Being that I first got into the genre here, Dragon Quest VI made me feel right at home.
This is how DLC should be done.
I'm almost unsure as to why I'm even bothering to review this particular downloadable expansion to Portal 2. For one, it's totally free, and two, it's more Portal 2. How could anyone complain about that? After playing through the entirely new set of test chambers, I know I can't. Fact of the matter is Peer Review is more of a good thing.
This week's PB & Jason features Kirby. Kirby Kirby Kirby.
Oh, and there's also some Dungeon Defenders talk inside as well.
There's a bloody good time to be had in New Marais.
There has been this perception that Festival of Blood was DLC; that it was some kind of small addition to inFAMOUS 2 which was released earlier this year. It's an easy assumption to make since FoB takes place in New Marais, the New Orleans of InFAMOUS’ fictional world and the setting of Cole’s second adventure. It would only make sense that you would need to have a copy of the game in order to enjoy this expansion, but the lovely folks at Sucker Punch Productions wanted to gift the entire PlayStation 3 community with this gem and as such released it as a stand-alone title.
A new deal will make Origin more competitive in the digital distribution market.
EA has announced today that its digital distribution platform, Origin, will be adding a boatload of new, popular titles from publishers Warner Bros. Interactive, THQ and Capcom Entertainment, Inc. Beginning next month, Origin will play host to hotly anticipated PC version of Batman: Arkham City, Saints Row: The Third and more.
Kratos, a man of many emotions – angry, pissed off, furious, and did I mention angry?
Good news, everyone! PixlBit has already reviewed both Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta. Both received a rating of 4 stars on the PSP, and if you're a fan of the series, surely the same will hold true here. Sony has lovingly ported these games to the PlayStation 3 with great results. Both games look strikingly good for PSP remasters and both control as you'd expect with the de facto PlayStation controller, as opposed to the often awkward PSP nub.
Touch My Katamari will introduce a new mechanic (Shape Shifting), and it will be a launch title for the PlayStation Vita on February 22, 2012.
