Good afternoon everyone. Recently most of us have learned of the recent addition of a multiplayer component for Batman Arkham Origins. Some of us were intrigued as to how exactly the multiplayer component would work out and some were concerned or not pleased of the revelation. Here's the trailer We've seen this been done in the past, a single player game designed only to be single player has had a multiplayer component added later in the series. The result is not a very good one and a lot of players such as myself do not like the addition of a multiplayer component. Games such as Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Bioshock 2 and Dead Space 2  had a multiplayer component added in, however it was Spec Ops: The Line that had a multiplayer component made only because 2K said that there needed to be a multiplayer mode available on the game. The lead designer of Spec Ops Cory Davis said... "The publisher was determined to have it anyway, it was literally a ch...

Good evening everyone Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick hinted at the possibility that Red Dead Redemption could be a franchise. Source: http://www.gamespot.com/news/take-two-hints-at-red-dead-redemption-2-6412272 During a recent earnings call, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick teased that Red Dead Redemption could be a potential franchise. "It's been our goal not just to preserve and grow the Grand Theft Auto franchise, but also to build other franchises that we think can be permanent, whether that's the Red Dead franchise or the Borderlands franchise or the Borderlands franchise or the Bioshock franchise or others, Civilization for example. Our goal is to try to create permanent franchises, that's the unique goal in the industry. Our competitors do not see it that way. Our competitors' view is that our franchise will have a certain life, and at the end of that life, you move onto the next thing, so you better make hay while the sun shines.  Our view is...

Good morning everyone. Happy Hump Day! Today we got a surprise trailer for Arkham Origins, Microsoft has confirmed that the Xbox One will be compatible with current-gen headsets and Nintendo's quarterly revenue has gone down. Let's begin with Batman. Arkham Origins Multiplayer Earlier this morning a trailer was uploaded to the internet that revealed the next Batman game is going to have multiplayer. 3 v 3 v 2. Two teams of 3 are battling each other while two players will play as Batman and Robin. Batman and Robin are hunting down both teams while said teams are hunting down the other. I assume that both teams are fighting each other for a chance to take out the Dynamic Duo, whichever team is standing to take out the Dynamic Duo wins. At least that's my theory on the multiplayer. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Xbox One Compatible with Current-Gen Headsets Source: http://www.polygon.co...

Good afternoon everyone. I have been very curious about Dishonored. I have heard so many good things about this game. The game was on sale recently on Xbox Live and I bought the game. At first I was concerned thinking that my money spent was for nothing, after playing Dishonored, why didn't I buy this game sooner.... I present to you. My review of 2012's Dishonored. Story Set in the industrial city of Dunwall, you play as Corvo Attano, a legendary bodyguard to the Empress of Dunwall.

Good morning folks. Before I begin this, take this story with a grain of salt. The article from EuroGamer claims that Digital Foundry got documents from "a well placed development source," it's an unnamed source. Digital Foundry has been know to give "falsies" in the past from "well placed sources" this has not been confirmed by Sony Source: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-ps3-system-software-memory According to the article, the PS4 will reserve 3.5GB of the 8GB GDDR5 memory for the operating system, leaving 4.5 GB of space for game code. However, further sources suggest that an additional 1GB of "flexible memory" may be reclaimed from the OS reservation, based on availability, making 5.5GB potentially accessible. Internal Sony documents suggest that 4.5GB is the "baseline amount of guaranteed memory available" for games, but the additional 1GB of "flexible memory" can be used by de...
