#Rise
Woo-oo!
PAX East just kicked off today in Boston, but we may already have born witness to what may be the event’s biggest announcement. Capcom has announced that they will be resurrecting one of the most beloved platformers of all time. That’s right, DuckTales is making a comeback this year.
A glimpse at some gameplay footage of the new content to be available with Dark Arisen.
Coming out for the PC through Steam later this year.
Apogee Software reveals a new first person shooter to the most concentrated form of the key demographic imaginable.
Apogee Software of Duke Nukem Trilogy fame took the stage first at QuakeCon 2012 to reveal their newest old-game-rebirth project, Rise of the Triad.

Developed by Piranha Bytes, the house that brought us the Gothic series and the first Risen, Risen 2: Dark Waters feels both familiar to its pedigree and oh-so much nastier.
