Climbing Things Will Not Be A Part Of Watch Dogs 2 Gameplay
Ubisoft introduced the concept of “tower synchronization” in Assassin’s Creed. To progress through the game, you’ve got to scale something tall first. Once you do, a map of the immediate area is unlocked and all your objectives are identified. This mechanic spread from Assassin’s Creed into Ubisoft’s other titles: Far Cry, the first Watch Dogs and even the racing game The Crew have used it. Watch Dogs 2 will, in […]
Superpowers Come To GTA V With “Power Play”
Generally the Grand Theft Auto series has stayed grounded in reality — an exaggerated version of reality, but real enough that the only way a Yeti can appear is if it’s in a hallucinatory sequence. I wonder what the explanation is this time — LSD? I’m talking about Power Play, the new GTA Online Adversary Mode that grants what are undeniably superpowers to its players. In Power Play, teams work […]

E3 2016: Sega’s Yakuza 0 Trailer Brings The Pain
Sega has published its E3 trailer for the newest installment (to us, anyway) of their long-running Yakuza series. Japan is still one game ahead of us, but at least the translations are still coming. What can we glean about Kazuma Kiryu, the focus character of this installment, from the new trailer? We know he’s really really good at beating people up. Seriously, look at him go. Presumably these are other […]

E3 2016: New Watch Dogs 2 Footage
Ubisoft debuted the first-ever gameplay footage from the upcoming Watch Dogs 2 during their E3 presentation this afternoon. People were hoping the game would be an improvement over the mediocre original. Even if the game DOES play better (and it looks mostly the same), I don’t think I could stand protagonists like this for long. These are some of the most embarrassing video game characters I’ve ever seen. They’re horrendous […]
E3 2016: Microsoft Introduces Forza Horizon 3
It wouldn’t be an XBox release schedule without some form of Forza, and this year, Forza Horizon returns with an all-Australian setting. Developer Playground Games demoed Forza Horizon 3 this morning during Microsoft’s E3 conference. Here’s what to expect: Explore the Horizon Festival’s Largest and Most Diverse World Ever. Drive through the vast desert and rocky canyons of the Outback to lush, wild rainforests, and the sandy beaches and gleaming […]
Watch Dogs 2: First Trailers And More
Yes, it’s true, but thanks to multiple leaks you knew that already: Ubisoft is sequeling its mild success Watch Dogs with a followup that will hopefully realize the concept better. The premise is the same as the first: a large metropolis decides to foolishly run every single component of its futuristic infrastructure on the same connected program, which allows for easy hackability by people like your new protagonist, Marcus Holloway. […]
Rocket League Adds Rare Items, Trading System
Back in the old days, kids used to buy cheap packages of cards and trade the duplicates with their friends. …Actually, they still do that. But now there’s a digital version as well, as many games are adapting the time-tested mechanic for their own use. Many MMOs, co-ops and other online titles now offer ultra-rare items that players can trade with one another. Rocket League now joins the list with […]
Anki Releases Rage…And Supertrucks
Anki is releasing rage for you, the player, in the form of its new Supertrucks – the Freewheel and the X52. Neither, however, will be available until early October [at $60 apiece]. The Supertrucks will also come with improved weaponry – the X52 will have a ‘Pulse Ram’ that sends opponents careening off the track, while the Freewheel can activate a ‘Gravity Trap’ that causes other drivers to lose control […]
Yachts Are Cheap In GTA Online This Week
If this weekend’s GTA Online events seem small-time, there’s a reason: the next HUGE addition, Further Adventures in Finance and Felony, is only five days away. But for the time being, this sale will have to hold your interest. Now through June 6, the Orion yacht is 50 percent off, and customization items for any yacht are 25 percent off.

Once downloaded, an entire new island will be added to the game. According to Square, “MECH LAND ASSAULT takes Rico Rodriguez to the new island of Lacrima, home to an abandoned eDEN research base and a prison camp run by […]
If You Haven’t Seen These Rocket League Cars, They’re New To You
Psyonix has announced two new vehicles coming to Rocket League, though “new” is relative in this case. Before the developer created Rocket League, they introduced a different game called “Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars.” These two new cars, Aftershock and Marauder, are directly from that game. So how do you get them? You don’t….yet. Aftershock and Maurauder are part of the exclusive content DLC that will come with the Rocket […]
Rocket League Rockets Past 5 Million Copies
Rocket League has reached another sales milestone: developer Psyonix announced this week that the game has sold a total of over five million copies. It’s not even a year old yet (though at ten months, it’ll get there). In total Psyonix has earned $100 million from Rocket League-related sales….this cumulative number equals over twice as much as they reported they’d earned in the first six months, so sales have actually […]
