While most gamers are focusing their anticipation on the heavy hitters of the holiday season, like CoD: Black Ops and Fallout: New Vegas, there is one game that people may have forgotten about: Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. In an attempt to get some attention for the game, Namco has released a demo on the PlayStation Network. Enslaved is set to release October 5th, and is developed by Ninja Theory, who made 2007’s PS3 exclusive Heavenly Sword, and are also developing the recently announced Devil May Cry re-boot....

Activision doesn’t seem likely to turn its back on the moneymaking franchise Call of Duty any time soon, and recent rumors are suggesting that not only will Modern Warfare 3 be the next game to be released, but that an official reveal of gameplay will be arriving next month. While the news may not be fully confirmed, this is just the most recent in a long line of details that point to an official announcement in the near future....

Maximum carnage is an accurate depiction of Serious Sam franchise. Endless waves of insane enemies combined with a variety of over-the-top weapons creates a recipe for ridiculous amounts of action and fun. Classic Serious Sam was quality material, but the upgraded HD versions are required property for any gamer. Lucky for 360 owners, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter is finally available via XBLA starting today. Croteam may be neck deep in the development of Serious Sam 3, but fans of the franchise undoubtedly want their satisfaction right now....

Due to the success of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG), the Battle Royale genre has completely taken over gaming, as pretty much every new release will either have the mode included at launch or will add the mode at a later date. While you can make the argument that far too many developers are trying to make a huge splash by adding the mode to their game, there are a few games that would actually benefit from jumping into the battle royale genre....

One of the most anticipated games to ever be released on the Switch, Pokémon Sword & Shield, is finally on the horizon, and will no doubt make quite the splash when it hits worldwide on November 15th, 2019. But with the previous mainline release of this gaming and anime phenom now so distant, it would certainly serve gamers well to brush up on their monster-hunting skills and get back into the Pokémon game the right way....

There are just so many Pokémon that would obviously make great pets. They’re adorable, loveable, and would clearly make for great friends to spend your time with. Then there is Xatu, a Pokémon that is paralyzed with fear because of the visions it sees of the future. Literally same, rt. There are just as many Pokémon that would make bad pets. Bad vibes? Hungy? The threat of death? Who cares. There are all sorts of reasons that certain Pokémon might make bad pets, and here we’ve found ten of the worst....

This is it - 2023 is the time to try something new! So instead of peering mysteriously into a crystal ball and pretending to divine some trends for the year ahead, we thought we’d make things more personal. We thought we’d share our personal gaming ambitions for the year ahead. What does that mean? Well, gaming ambitions are a lot like New Year’s Resolutions, but they’re about games rather than going to the gym....

There was once a time when licensed video games were always bad, especially movie tie-in games. These monstrosities were often rushed out by publishers, handed off to inexperienced or poor developers with little time or budget to make something good. Worst still, many of these games had to follow a strict structure established by whatever they were based on. Nowadays, licensed games tend to be a little better. There’s still a torrential downpour of garbage on the mobile market, but AAA licensed games are usually pretty excellent....

Funko Pop figures already get a lot of flak from the general populace. Why? Is it because they like to buy figures that are hundreds of dollars and Funko Pops cost only about twenty? Is it because they just see it as a fad that’s going to end? Or is it because of lists like these that feed into the fact that some of these figurines are just odd looking?...

This article comes from Den of Geek UK. Sometimes, we figure, you come to a site like this just to find out about a film you didn’t know about; that you want recommendations of movies that you might not otherwise have uncovered. This list, then, has no theme, save that the films on it are really good, and didn’t get much of an audience first time around. That, or they seem to have been forgotten....

343 Industries has posted the latest end-of-June update all on the subject of bringing Halo: Reach and, more specifically Forge and Theatre modes to the Halo: The Master Chief Collection when Halo: Reach is added later this year. The first part of the hefty update on the Halo Waypoint blog mentions that the team will be doing a one time copy of all maps and gametypes currently uploaded to the series’ file share system from all previous versions of the game on Xbox 360....

Role-playing classic Dungeons and Dragons is a game that involves a lot of material preparation. At its simplest, D&D requires that a player group possess about three hardcover books, a set of dice, a character sheet, something to write with, and a surface of some sort. In most cases, players will all have most of these things, as well as some handy additions. Moving beyond a simple game, certain editions might require a player to have access to multiple books for their individual purposes....

Out of the many genres in gaming, the tower defense genre may not strike you as one of the most popular, but the truth is, it’s a surprisingly crowd-pleasing form of gameplay that’s easy to pick-up-and-play and satiates our ol’ lizard brains as we lay waste to waves upon waves of pesky enemies. While it may be deemed a little “casual” for hardcore gamers (whatever that actually means), the tower defense genre is here to stay....

Other exhibitors are also expected to be announced in the run-up to the show.

The Nintendo Switch is a great console for lots of reasons, like how it perfectly blends traditional and portable gaming and that there are three different styles of Switch to choose from whether you want a portable only device, a Switch with an OLED screen, or just the standard Switch experience. First-party Nintendo Switch games usually hold their value and rarely go on sale, so when over 20 of them are just £35 each at ShopTo, it’s a great time to add some new titles to your library for less....

The start of Sun Ce’s campaign in Total War: Three Kingdoms – A World Betrayed can be very hectic. You need to watch out for multiple faction mechanics such as your Reckless Luck status and Legacy of Wu objectives. You’ll also have to strike a balance with regards to your income, officer acquisitions, and rank-ups that can lead to dissatisfaction. Oh, and you have to beware of Yuan Shu since multiple events and dilemmas will involve his vassalage of Sun Ce....
