It's a jolly season and Kalypso Media is certainly in a giving mood. To celebrate the holidays and thank its fans, the video game publisher is holding a yuletide giveaway.
If you own a Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY, then Rockstar Games has the answer to your problem. One of the company's most talked about and beloved titles, Grand Theft Auto 3: 10th Anniversary Edition, is now available on the Android device. This may come as a bit of a surprise, considering that the device was never listed as being compatible with the open-world crime drama. Though, you can trust us when we say that it will work, after being downloaded through the Android Marketplace.
We gamers love to slay dragons. It's a proven fact. Bethesda Softworks has proudly announced that its hit role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, has shipped ten million units. Keep in mind that the game has only been out since November 11, which makes these numbers even more impressive.
Continuing video game publishers' current trend of re-releasing downloadable titles through retail means, is Capcom's plan for its just announced Capcom Digital Collection. The Xbox 360 exclusive will feature eight popular XBLA releases from the video game giant's library.
Early 2012 is going to be a great time for survival horror fans. Not only are we expected to receive a trio of Silent Hill releases; Remedy Entertainment has also just announced its plans to release Alan Wake on PC during that launch window. This great news was just made official today, through press release means.
Some games are just as memorable for their soundtracks as they are for including great gameplay. One of those would certainly be the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater titles of generations past. After all; who can forget some of the more prominent songs on the original game's list, such as Goldfinger's Superman. Heck; that's pretty much the only song I listened to during my hundreds of hours spent with that masterpiece. It aided in the band becoming a personal favourite, acting as my introduction to their music leading to wanton interest to check out more.
In order to pique our collective interest even more, the game's development team has released a set of several new screenshots. Quite impressive shots, if I must say so myself.
It seems like gamers who waited on Hard Reset will benefit, as Kalypso Media and Flying Wild Hog have reached an agreement to publish an extended retail version of the cyberpunk first-person shooter. Set to release early next year (March, in fact,) the physical copy will bring with it an impressive amount of new content.
The racing gurus at Codemasters have decided to make their next rally game different from their last. Taking a break from precision-based time trials and hairpin turns, DiRT Showdown will bring motorized mayhem to a series which has previously been more formulaic than adventurous. It's planned for release this May, for PC, 360 and PS3.
