Tower Heist is too much fun too dislike. It may not be the smartest or even the funniest film of the year, but it does feature one very entertaining ensemble that makes for a great ride.
Whether you were one of the proud few who enjoyed playing Dead Island and battling hordes of zombies (along with game glitches galore) or not, it was a success in the sales department. So a sequel must be in the works, right? Well it seems the developers at Techland are declining that the aptly titled Dead World they trademarked recently, is an actual sequel to Dead Island.
It's going to be time to frag and clear once again when Game Informer launches their next issue in December, with a main article unveiling the next Rainbow Six game. It appears the leaked early concept video from this past June, as well as the web domain acquisitions for Ubisoft's popular shooter series, proved to be faithful after all. Rainbow Six: Patriots is alive and kicking, with a release window sometime in 2013 on the 360, PS3, and PC.
Who wouldn’t be excited for the announcement of a new Grand Theft Auto game? The series is one of the biggest out there and the quality of each future release keeps getting better and better. So when the first gameplay trailer for GTA V showed up yesterday, fans went nuts once again for another dose of unadulterated pandemonium the series is well-known for including.
The time for debate is over. The battle to determine what modern shooter is king this fall has finally come to fruition, with the first opponent entering the ring early ready to unload a fistful of bullets into its competition. Battlefield 3 has arrived, exactly two weeks before Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is set upon the eager gamers waiting to get their sweaty hands on the highly anticipated juggernaut.
If the record-breaking debut of The Walking Dead’s second season indicated anything, it’s that this series is extremely popular among its ever-growing viewers, and for good reason too. This is high quality programming that’s one of the most riveting shows to have ever appeared on television. The Walking Dead’s trend of excellence continues tonight with an incredible new episode that introduces a bunch of new characters that fans of the graphic novels will be instantly familiar with.
It’s been almost a week since Batman’s latest game released to widespread critical acclaim from both critics and fans of the DC superhero. Anyone who’s sunken endless hours exploring the various nooks and crannies of Batman: Arkham City is aware that there’s a ton of available side content to explore besides the initial campaign (which is awesome by the way).
Fans of the series will be right at home with Paranormal Activity 3 and at the same time be completely satisfied with what’s shown this time around. But no matter how hard it tries, the uncomfortable feeling that the first film provided is gone. As with all horror sequels, this one plays it safe and retains what made the original such a hit, yet it offers enough new features to warrant a viewing for jolts and chills at Halloween.
While not revolutionary or even an overhaul of its predecessors, Castlevania: Harmony of Despair does do things mildly distinctive in the form of multiplayer. The action and combat remain the same, aside from a few character adjustments, but working together with a group allows for greater exploration. Either requiring the help of a teammate to gain access to an undiscovered area or timing attacks together against a formidable boss, the gameplay works smoothly with others. For a series that has relied on the same bag of tricks for years, its good to see something new come out of it, even if the end goal is still trying to kill Dracula.
