E3 2011: Q&A With An E3 Model
Yeah, FleshEatingZipper as a whole are bummed they couldn’t sink their teeth into E3 2011 in person. But that didn’t stop them from creeping underneath all of those fancy announcement trailers! I was fortunate to have a little one on one chit chat sesh with a lovely lady who worked on the other side of the Ubisoft table. And did I mention she happens to be of the opposite sex? Check out the Q&A after the break! Read the rest of this article…
E3 2011: Gears Of War 3 New Horde Mode Discussed, Release Date Confirmed
Last night at E3, Epic Games showed off the new, revamped horde mode for Gears of War 3. In this article I’ll be discussing the new features, the features from Gears of War 2, how they contrast and what this means for the players when the game’s release date hits on September 20, 2011.

Enjoy this full trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 that was shown at E3 2011. I haven’t played Final Fantasy since FF7 but I know a lot of people still do and since Square Enix has been really cool to us I figured post it up! The game comes out Q4 in 2012 and here is the official site.
E3 2011: Star Wars Kinect And The Second Fall Of LucasArts
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… An American gaming company named LucasArts developed fun and innovative adventure games primarily based on popular films created by George Lucas. Some where between the rise of the Playstation and anticipated release of The Phantom Menace, LucasArts reached it’s peak — the ceiling of its own empire. The E3 demo for Kinect Star Wars further proves the declining age of LucasArt’s progressive gaming.

What do you get when you mix awful voice acting, unoriginal SFX/score, sub par animation and graphics together? A prototype of an independent game? Based on Activisions new trailer, no — you get Prototype 2 instead. Bring some leather to bite down on after the break. You’re going to need it.
E3 2011: New XCOM Trailer Arrives, Intrigues
Oh yeah, I’m one of those guys. To say I’m hesitant going into 2K Marin’s reimagining of my favorite game of all time would be an understatement. It’s not that I’m genuinely opposed to the reinvention, or the removal of the hyphen (X-COM is the classic term), or even the bizarre, geometric baddies. Nah, it was the fact that Marin was giving us yet another art-deco, 50’s era game after two Bioshock titles. Can we move on a little? (Or maybe it’s you fighting blobs, maybe that, too.)
How Awful Is The Duke Nukem Forever Demo? Pretty Awful.
Oh, Duke. We all know about your game’s tortured development cycle, eventual death at the hands of your perfectionist creators, and resurrection under the watchful eye of Gearbox (creators of the awesome Borderlands). Now, after fourteen years of development (FOURTEEN!), First Access Club members were given an early download for the Duke Nukem Forever demo, a week and a half ahead of its release at retail. So how is it? In as few words as possible: tragically bad.
