We sat down with the newly released Lord of the Rings Deck Building Game and had a blast — read on to check out our impressions.
We got some time in with the latest Walking Dead-themed tabletop title – a very light, easy-to-pick-up card game from Cryptozoic that will help you pass the time until the next season airs.
Following the success of Telltale Games’ brilliant and moving series of downloadable games based on The Walking Dead comic series, it was only a matter of time until gamers would see a spin-off of AMC’s hit show. Unfortunately, as is the case with so many licensed titles, it simply fails to live up to its potential…
The Behemoth is a developer that’s easy to love. Their previous two titles, Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers, share a unique style that puts them in a class of their own. Known for their signature and adorably quirky artwork, they’ve hit that perfect balance between accessibility for the casual crowd and ultra-tight, interesting gameplay for…
Ubisoft had a truly commanding presence at the Penny Arcade Expo this year and one of their most popular attractions was the large theater in the center of the show floor screening exclusive footage of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag.
Deep Silver’s immersive first-person, cooperative shooter returns the characters to an island setting they thought they had left behind to relive the nightmare all over again. At this year’s PAX East, housed in Square Enix’s booth space, Dead Island had a nice little display area hosting a twenty-minute long demo, complete with headsets and mics for…
In comparison to previous years, it seemed indie developers had the run of the floor at PAX East 2013, showing off a huge number of great projects for PC, iOS, and current-gen consoles alike. Without a doubt though, one game, even in its early stages, stole the show – Tiny Brains.
Bethesda hit PAX East full force this year. Their booth had a commanding presence as a gigantic screen running a looped Elder Scrolls Online trailer stopped con-goers dead in their tracks and throngs of gamers queued up to catch a few minutes of hands-on time with the upcoming title.
While ESO was the focal point of Bethesda’s PAX East booth, I was able to get some hands on time with a fantastic upcoming DLC addition to last year’s Dishonored, entitled “The Knife of Dunwall.”
Fans at this year’s PAX East waited hours upon hours outside of Ubisoft’s enormous multi-theater display to catch a glimpse of their Watch Dogs presentation. The game has plenty of buzz circulating it and with good reason — Watch Dogs looks to be one of the most creative and ambitious video game titles in years.
Behind closed doors at this year’s PAX East in Boston, we were able to sit down with Scott Lee, the art director for Ubsoft’s upcoming Splinter Cell: Blacklist, for an intimate look at the gameplay and new features the game will offer when it’s released this summer.
Japanime games ran a rather non-descript booth at this year’s PAX East with a minimal setup featuring two styles of playmats for use with their popular Tanto Cuore games, a physical copy of the upcoming Krosmaster Arena which is currently up on Kickstarter, and a table demoing their brand new release, Kanzume Goddess.
Just when you think you’ve seen everything there is to experience in the city of Steelport, Saint’s Row IV ups the ante.
Having spawned ten games and two motion pictures, Tomb Raider is one of the most recognizable and successful video game franchises of all time. Over the course of its seventeen-year existence, Lara Croft has zigzagged across the globe, exploring uncharted territory and finding adventure wherever she travelled. Though the series has aged gracefully, the team at Crystal…
To put it bluntly, Aliens: Colonial Marines is a broken, unfinished mess. With nearly seven years spent in development and in the hands of four very capable studios, it seems inconceivable that the game touted as the official sequel to James Cameron’s action/sci-fi masterpiece could have turned out to be one of the biggest disappointments…
