E3 2013: ‘Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag’ Multiplayer Impressions – More Than Just Pirates
No joke I was that character with the gun always chasing down the girl.
The Assassin’s Creed franchise has settled in on a style of multiplayer that I find pretty interesting and fun. They haven’t really added a lot to the multiplayer of the different releases until Black Flag. Read the rest of this article…
E3 2013: ‘Saints Row 4’ Is The Most Extreme Open-World Game Ever
Thanks Obama! …oh, wait.
At this point, you already know if you’re on the Saints Row train. Once a mere imitation of Grand Theft Auto‘s street gangsta motif, the series has found a new home in throwing out everything you know in favor of absolutely comical heights and abilities. I got to sit down with the game behind closed doors and now I’m more excited than ever about your new adventure as President of the United States. Yeah.

lol
In an interview with Machinima, Mark Rubin clarified that the fish AI in Call of Duty: Ghosts was just an effect saying, “it’s just fish, it’s an effect. It’s not a big deal. It’s not even new. I love that the internet picked up on it. I love that they picked up on Nintendo 64’s Mario, and showed that. That was awesome. That was so exactly what I wanted out of that, so thank you guys. Thank you internet.” Take a look at the video below to see how the internet took the entire Call of Duty: Ghosts reveal including the fish AI. Read the rest of this article…

Ubisoft’s The Crew was something that really piqued my interests. I’m not a driving game kind of guy but I do enjoy jumping into Forza or Need for Speed every once in awhile. Ubisoft promised an large-scale RPG so I had to check it out. Read the rest of this article…
Who Wins – Xbox One Controller vs PS4 Controller, Fight
FIGHT!
It’s no secret that I like the Xbox 360 controller and despise the DualShock 3 controller. Maybe it’s because I have larger hands that the DualShock 3 was never comfortable and the Xbox 360 controller was. I got a chance to try both controllers are E3 and the results may surprise you.
E3 2013: Game Companies Need Better Swag, Here’s What They Need To Do
Some better examples of free stuff.
When I first started going to E3 as a retail-blooded, Exhibits Only punk nearly a decade ago, gaming swag was worth the trip alone. Seriously, you get a year’s worth of free clothing, a bunch of other braggables and proof that you attended this massive convention of your dreams. As an older gentleman of class and sophistication, I honestly try to avoid swag like the plague. In my five E3s, I’ve brought home 60 pounds worth of crap and 50 pounds of it is still sitting in storage. Swag is inevitable. They hand it to you and you don’t want to be that guy, so you take it. You get some good and you definitely get some bad. It doesn’t have to be this way though, so let me guide you through some examples of what to do and what not to do if you’re promoting a game.
The 3 Things Which Will Kill The Oculus Rift
Nick checking out Soundself on the Oculus Rift
Today I got a chance to play a couple of games on the Oculus Rift and will have a chance to play more tomorrow. I spent quite enough time to get a really good idea of where the technology is at now and where it will have to go in the future in order to make it. If the technology doesn’t get there, I fear the Oculus Rift is going to fail.
So here are the 3 issues I see which will kill the Oculus Rift at market if they aren’t addressed.
E3 2013: Battlefield 4 Preview – It Will Make You Yearn For Simpler Times

With nothing planned for the rest of the day, we decided to jump in on the action. And action is what we got. A lot of it. Read the rest of this article…
E3 2013: Xbox One’s Zumba Is For Men, Too
I had the opportunity to play the Xbox One’s version of Zumba Fitness World Party and I’m not ashamed to admit this factoid. It was also fun to make an ass out of myself in front of everyone. Read the rest of this article…
Xbox One Will Only Work in the 21 Launch Countries
The Xbox name is being tainted :(
Microsoft seems to keep burying itself this year at E3. Confirmed by the Xbox official Twitter and their website, the Xbox One will only work in the 21 launch categories. This is due to the fact that the Xbox One needs to authenticate with Xbox Live every 24 hours. There are other requirements when you buy the Xbox One including waiving your right to class action lawsuits. Read the rest of this article…
