Your actions in co-op multiplayer will ripple through the single player campaign.
Yesterday our long-held suspicions were confirmed: Mass Effect 3 will indeed contain some kind of Multiplayer element. Now we’ve been provided details on exactly what’s in store for multiplayer via a blog post by Chris Priestly of BioWare.
Looks like you won't be saving the world alone after all.
It looks like multiplayer is coming to Mass Effect 3 if the Australian gaming mag PC PowerPlay is to be believed. According to their website, the magazine’s November issue, which goes on sale on October 19th, will blow the lid off of what may be one of the biggest video game announcements of the year.
This Developer Diary shows off the combat in the game.
Ubisoft releasing this Kinect exclusive to teach self defense techniques as well as provide workout exercises. It'll be available November 8, 2011.
A Mac version and iOS app have also been announced.
Double Fine Productions has just announced that Psychonauts is coming to Mac OS X today. An update for the Steam version of the game was also revealed that will include Steam achievements, cloud saves, and an easier version of the Meat Circus level. “We are really excited,” said Double Fine President Tim Schafer, “to finally be answering fans’ requests for a more difficult Meat Circus.” He's joking, of course.
You'll have to trust me: it's a much better game than its handheld counterpart.
At first blush, it's easy to see a bit of Ratchet & Clank in the latest Phineas and Ferb adventure, which is based around the most recent movie Across the 2nd Dimension. This is due in part to the past experience of developer High Impact Games, which is comprised of ex-Insomniac Games and ex-Naughty Dog members. Despite offering a taste of the beloved Sony series, the game stops short of completely aping it to provide a more family-friendly experience that captures the own charm of the Phineas and Ferb series. While it's not going to reach the Ratchet and Clank crowd, it's still a great game for the target demographic of the show.
3DS owners can look forward to Monster Hunter 4, Mario Tennis, and Fire Emblem.
Last night, Nintendo hosted a 3DS-centric press conference that revealed a variety of new games, details on existing titles, and a number of release dates and windows. The leaked peripheral that will feature a second circle pad wasn't featured at the show, though details were revealed officially by Nintendo on their website. Monster Hunter 3 G, which will utilize the peripheral, was showcased in depth, and its sequel, Monster Hunter 4 was officially revealed for the 3DS and teased with a short trailer.
Come see Nintendo's 3DS-centric press conference as it happens and join the staff as they discuss the announcements as they happen.
Starting at 11PM EDT tonight, Nintendo's pre-TGS, 3DS-centric press conference can be seen here streaming live! Now that Famitsu has spilled the beans on Monster Hunter 3 G and the second circle pad attachment, it's likely these items will come up during the conference. We'll likely learn if the attachment is just for the game or if Nintendo has bigger plans for the peripheral.
Lead your squad into the many battles that await you when Mass Effect 3 reaches stores worlwide in March of 2012 for PC, XBox 360, and PlayStation 3.
Maybe Phineas and Ferb can use their immeasurable genius to fix this blasé game.
Sometimes you play a game and can't help but be disappointed that it isn't something more. Phineas & Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension is such a game. Built on an engine that provides solid visuals and controls, Phineas and Ferb has the groundwork for a great game. Unfortunately, it quickly falls into a rut wherein each level in the game feels similar to the last, so much so that set pieces from levels are practically recycled. While I truly wanted to enjoy the game thanks to its solid footing, it quickly became sleep-inducing when it failed to evolve.
