    Watch_Dogs Trailer Introduces a Colorful Cast of Characters

    You know, I'm really not hyped for this game at all anymore, and the weird thing is I don't remember why I was initially hyped for it all, now that I think about it. The gameplay doesn't look like anything I haven't seen done before, the hacking looks like a gimmick, the characters look and...

    Tarantino's Going After Gawker Again: Hateful Eight Suit Re-filed

    Glad to see Gawker getting called out on their shit in any way shape or form. They deserve all the heat they're getting and then some. Everything on it is fucking garbage, and Tarantino is dead on with everything he says about them.

    GTA V's Microtransactions - "The Gift That Keeps on Giving," Says CEO

    In the 2 minutes it took you to type out that extremist comment, did the fact that you're hating a guy and (for some reason) his family over virtual dollars that are un-intrusively placed in a game that forces you to level up before you can buy the shit that matters (guns) ever cross your mind...

    Zero Punctuation: inFAMOUS: Second Son - Bad Son Good Son

    As usual, I disagree with Yahtzee. Been a fan of inFAMOUS ever since it came out; it's a rough diamond, but certainly has a lot more soul in it than many AAA games. So while had flaws, they never detracted from the experience for me. I love Delsin and Reggie (and I wanted to love the...

    Why the Oculus Rift is a Big Deal

    I see the buyout as Zuckererg seeing Oculus Rift and thinking "if I buy this, and it bombs, big deal, I'm a multi-billionaire. If I buy this, and it takes off, I walk away richer. But if I don't buy this and it does take off..." It's a little silly to think that Facebook would stay a social...

    Triple-A Ain't What it Used to Be

    I'd say game "journalism" is arguably worse than the AAA industry. Sites like Kotaku exist to produce manufactured outrage for clicks when they're not hyping up the next big game, which most gaming "news" sites do anyway. And in a weird way, I'm really not that bummed by the AAA industry...

    Infamous: The Power is in Your Hands

    I think the lack of grind rails is mitigated somewhat by the ways you can stay in the air with a lot of practice. It became a mini-game in itself to chain smoke dashes on vents to launch myself in the air while moving through the city, and I eventually realized I could incorporate that into...

    Infamous: The Power is in Your Hands

    I don't know about you, but I've never liked the climbing in inFAMOUS, and the fact that this game goes through pains to ensure I can avoid doing it in a more efficient way is an improvement to me. I don't want to spend three minutes looking at Delsin bunny hop up a building, I want him to be up...

    inFAMOUS: Second Son Review - The Good Son

    Actually, he is. ...If you have the limited edition, which gives you the Cole's legacy DLC, in which a certain character from the past games returns to directly speak to Delsin. And in another certain flashback at the end of the game, another character is mentioned via a stylized comic...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Freedom Cry's Slavery Was to Shock You

    I really liked Freedom Cry, it felt long enough to justify the price point, had a character I liked just as much as Edward, and had a strong bridge between the story and the gameplay. I only hope we get to see more of Adewale and Aveline.

    Report: Mirror's Edge 2 Open World and Combat Details Jump Out

    Really happy to hear that the gunplay is removed, I want to see how this new combat system works though. In an ideal world, you run at a guy and slide into his knee to avoid some gunfire, then do something else to knock him out before getting back to the running, this would take all of five...
