Prequel to the award winning comic Red SteelversusBlue Estate, eh? Blue Estatefor PS4 and Xbox One is a prequel story to comic, written by the same writer, who was kind enough to write thisPS Blog postexplaining the game. Apparently you can aim with the DualShock 4 gyroscope and pull the triggers, while other gestures are done with the touch pad. Would definitely be interested in seeing how well that works....

And a poor showing by Sonic Boom Creative Assembly’sAlien: Isolationwas one of the most well-received games of 2014, but “well-received” seemingly doesn’t cut it for its publisher. Sega released its year-end financial results today, and in it expresses disappointment atAlien: Isolation‘s sales, along with the packaged game field as a whole. Despite moving 2.11 million copies, Sega callsAlien: Isolation‘s performance weak. It pins this shortcoming on the nebulous factor of “harsh market environment....

During TennoCon 2024,Warframefans got a brand new look at the game’s upcoming expansion,Warframe: 1999,Soulframe, heard about a new quest, and even discovered that Sevagoth Prime will be the next Warframe entering Prime Access for them to pick up and run. Sevagoth is the grim reaper among Warframes. Its abilities can inflict a damage over time effect using either an ethereal shadow that flies into enemies or seeds that plant themselves and literally suck the life out of enemies....

Downloadable demon hunter The crossover that spawned one of gaming’s most enduring memes is back. In a trailer released late Tuesday night, Atlus confirmed Dante fromDevil May Cryis coming toShin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remasteras downloadable content. Dante was originally added to the second version ofNocturne, which ended up being the version released overseas. A third edition ofNocturnewas released in Japan that swapped Dante out for Raidou from the latter twoDevil Summonertitles....

Is there really a big enough skill cap difference? Seemingly everyone swears up and down that you must use a mouse and keyboard if you are going to play a shooter, arguing that it’s subjectively better to control and objectively makes you play better. Often I see people suggesting that if two players of equal skill level, one on mouse and keyboard and the other on a controller, compete that the mouse and keyboard user will win every time....

Based on early-access impressions Earlier this year at the Consumer Electronics Show, Dish announced a rather interesting prospect called Sling TV. As one of the first companies to embrace Internet TV, its new subscription-based service will stream live television to a number of devices for $20 a month — with no need for traditional cable. So how does this relate to videogames? Well, Sling TVis coming to the Xbox Onein the coming weeks, and I know a lot of people are curious about it....

Not even two weeks ago, I was pondering why we hadn’t seen any new developments onSplinter Cell: Convictionlately. Last I heard, the game had received multiple delays, was rumored to be getting dropped, and things just weren’t looking so hot. Surprisingly enough, though, the community manager forConviction, Chris Easton, has recentlytold Videogaming247that the game is “certainly not canned.” He continues: “the gameplay’s evolved a lot but the visual direction is simply much better than what you’ve seen....

If you thought we were done talking aboutStarfieldmods, think again. One of the great things about PC gaming (typically) is the ability to tinker with vanilla releases. In this case, one person has taken Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG and injected a dose ofDoctor Who. Over onNexus Mods, user xShadowBlitzz has brought the iconic Daleks toStarfield, replacing the sanitation mini bots that scuttle about the place. From the description, this mod is currently a work-in-progress, featuring three textured Daleks so far....

More polish and co-op is all I really needed State of Decaywas one of those games that quickly had me wishing for a sequel. Undead Labs was onto something with its base-building undead-survival title. The idea? Terrific. Roaming for food and ammo, picking up survivors, building out a base for your fledgling community, and inevitably suffering at the cruel hands of permadeath checked a lot of boxes for a lot of people....

D3 Publisher is putting out a newOnechanbarastarring two vampire sisters named Kagura and Saaya. Other than the vampire part, these new girls inOnechanbara Z: Kaguralook just like the last two heroines from the lastOnechanbara. D3 is keeping the theme the same though as you have to fight monsters while wearing next to nothing. Seriously. It’s like Kagura’s (the one in the cowboy hat) is just wearing some small napkins on her boobs and around her waist....

I’ve been a dedicated follower of indie game maker thatgamecompany since their beginnings, and they’ve never disappointed with their releases. But things are about to really ramp up for them. The Santa Monica-based company has just ended their game deal with PlayStation, and now they’ve raised $5.5 million from Benchmark Capital. Benchmark are the guys that funded Riot Games, makers ofLeague of Legends, and more recently, Meteor Entertainment, the folks behind the awesome upcoming free-to-play titleHawken....

It’s becoming a shit-show I currently own every amiiboreleased in the US, including variants. It was very fun for a time, collecting them with friends, but it gotincreasingly less fun. I always said that I would stop when it got ridiculous, andleading into Wave 5, it’s far past that point. I’ve basically given up on Nintendo getting its shit together, mostly due to the fact that it still insists on retailer exclusive deals in the US despite massive shortage problems and rampant customer dissatisfaction....
