Gears of War 3 is sitting atop many 360 gamers’ lists of Most Anticipated Titles. It’s even nominated for “Most Anticipated” at this year’s annual Spike Video Game Awards. Of course, when a game that isn’t even due to hit store shelves until mid-2011 is up for an award, odds are the company behind it is going to tease an exclusive reveal – not only to increase the odds of walking away with the award, but to get free advertisement at one of the largest gaming events on television....

To be completely honest, Bungie could walk away from Halo: Reach and never touch it again, and fans would remain perfectly happy. The game is receiving astonishingly high review scores, Reach has topped the Xbox Live charts for over a week now, and broken more records than we likely know about. Money in the bank, right? Lucky for us, the gentlemen at Bungie are a bit more professional than that, and have a sizable update coming out this October....

Rockstar has just released the third official trailer for their upcoming game L.A. Noire and man is it awesome.

Noire certainly continues Rockstar’s trend of releasing great trailers, and offer a much better representation of the game than the latest L....

Disney Interactive Studios and Traveller’s Tales Games have just released a new trailer for LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean that shows how the game will accurately capture the first film in the series: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Although this sneak peak at the game features an in-depth look at Curse of the Black Pearl, the complete game will feature a LEGO version of each of the three previously released films along with an adaptation of this summer’s On Stranger Tides....

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds is finally out for everyone to get their hands on, and judging from the reception the game’s been getting, the wait has most certainly been worth it. While DLC that contains two more characters has already been confirmed to arrive somewhere down the line, and the Shadow Mode DLC is due March 1st, another DLC pack has just been announced. The pack in question contains new costumes for Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Ryu, Chris Redfield, and Dante....

[Update 2] It looks as though EA is still working through the server problems. The EA Help Twitter page indicates (see below) that there is still no “timeframe for fix at the moment.” Update: Our teams continue to investigate the problems with connectivity. We do not have a current timeframe for fix at the moment. Thanks for sticking with us while we work through this. https://t.co/jmC8o3Ofee — EA Help (@EAHelp) May 5, 2019...

The Gearbox Software’s smash hit Borderlands 3 has been the talk of the shoot and loot community for just shy of five months now. With its explosive gameplay and tongue-in-cheek comedy, the third major installment brings home that familiar adrenaline rush we’ve seen in previous chapters. But narrowing the spotlight onto the art style of the franchise, we’re able to admire the comic book-esque design and the wacky characters Gearbox has given us....

You’re finally done with the character creation stage, and you found the spelling of your preferred name that isn’t taken. It’s time to get out there and lay waste to Azeroth! Depending on the type of game you play in Classic World of Warcraft, there are better places to start out your journey than others. Do you enjoy a lot of wide-open places and resource hunting? Or would you prefer a smaller space where it’s easier to turn in quests and get repairs before setting off again?...

Across its now four seasons, HBO’s Westworld has consistently discussed themes of artificial intelligence, what it means to be alive, and the nature of humanity through a critical, philosophical lens. Concepts like these have been explored by numerous works of science fiction, and video games are certainly no exception. If you’re looking for games to play that feel like Westworld, read on. SOMA Games To Play if You Love Westworld From the word go, Frictional Game’s SOMA sees the player working their way through a derelict, subaquatic research station packed to the brim with artificial intelligence that refuse to acknowledge the fact that they aren’t human....

Mega Man, as we know, is notorious as one of the most difficult franchises in gaming. Before Dark Souls came along and became synonymous with punishing gameplay, Mega Man was right up there. It still is, in fact, with all its pixel-perfect jumps and insta-death spikes. Not to mention the enemy spawns, often perfectly positioned to knock into you and send you plummeting into the abyss. It’s not a franchise for the faint-hearted....

The first few months of 2022 have gotten off to a flying start for blockbuster game releases. Games like Elden Ring and Dying Light 2 Stay Human have dominated the casual discussions among gaming communities. But, while the initial busy months of the year have given away to a quieter start to spring, the year is far from over. This year is set to continue to release several potentially excellent games in a variety of genres such as racing, action RPG, and more....

Thor: Love and Thunder releases in theaters this Friday, where audiences will get to see the God of Thunder go up against the God Butcher. However, given the complicated web of the MCU, which even more mimics the comic book medium nowadays, plenty of information will be essential to remind yourselves of before the latest MCU installment releases. With that being said, here are the ten most important things to remember before seeing Thor: Love and Thunder....

You should never get your hopes up when a new and anticipated game is announced, because it takes years for it to actually be available to play. The Last of Us Part II was announced in 2016, but we’re still no closer to experiencing its story and gameplay.

If you find yourself with a huge stack of Disney VHS tapes stored away in boxes or in your parents’ attic, then this is definitely a story for you. If you find yourself wondering where to take your old VHS tapes to dispose of them at, you might want to take a step back and reconsider that decision.

Earlier this month, Newegg offered a 2-month subscription to Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for the price of one, giving Xbox players additional savings to subscribe to the service. While that deal is no longer available, Best Buy is currently offering the same deal, which is perfect for players who may have missed out on the previous sale several weeks ago. Normally, a one-month subscription to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate goes for $14....

Pokémon has been popular ever since the original Red and Green games first came out in 1996.

Since then, many different versions of the game have come out, and there are still Pokémon games being released to this day, so watch this space. Like most other phenomena, Pokémon moved onto other forms of media than just the games....

Following a data breach last month, 2K has now confirmed that some personal data has been recorded. Hackers were able to gain access to the company’s support desk, impersonating official communication. The publisher is now emailing those affected, confirming that some personal data was recorded but there’s “no indication” that financial information has been compromised. Watch on YouTube Eurogamer Newscast: Are CD Projekt’s Cyberpunk and Witcher plans too ambitious? “The unauthorised third-party accessed and copied some personal data that was recorded about you when you contacted us for support, including your email address, helpdesk ID number, gamertag, and console details,” reads the email, as reported by VGC....

Consoles are regarded as an affordable alternative to PC gaming, but any cost-effective benefits end the second a system is purchased. The former can easily consume thousands of dollars per generation, while the latter has access to deeper software sales. With each passing year, the gaming industry seems to be increasing the number of quality games released on a monthly basis. It must be said, such a statement might carry a tad more weight if the previous months had not coincided with the release of a couple of underperforming AAA projects, but Anthem and Crackdown 3 are exceptions to the rule....

Elder Scrolls 6 has been hyped up for years now, with many anticipating the sequel to Skyrim, even if The Elder Scrolls Online is tying players over for the time being. Bethesda can only re-release their fifth game so many times. But, perhaps they can learn something from their previous work, whether its Morrowind, Daggerfall, Oblivion or the most popular of the bunch, Skyrim itself. In that vein, here are five things that should return from bygone titles and five that should remain relics of the past....
