The demo took place during the second chapter of the Crysis 2 campaign, where the player has already fully assumed control of the Nanosuit 2 playing as new protagonist, Alcatraz. One of the first things of note about Crysis 2 is indeed, how beautiful it is; A funny thing to say when most of New York City is starting to become ruined and destroyed. Buildings explode in the distance and you see the glass shards fly, right before they’re enveloped by fire and smoke....

While some people took advantage of piracy to avoid dishing out any money to developer Crytek Studios, true fans aren’t just lining up to get their hands on the game, but to show the developer how hard work should be rewarded. Video of the first 25 minutes of the game have made its way online, and we can tell you that it’s more than enough to prove that the game is more than worth the retail price tag....

However, while Crytek remains quiet on the matter, the studio’s Crysis publisher EA may have inadvertently outed Crysis 3 - ahead of what was supposed to be an exclusive announcement in Game Reactor magazine. The reveal, which appeared yesterday as a set of Electronic Arts Origin pre-order pages, indicates that Crysis 3 will, similar to the last installment, be released as a “Limited Edition” - which will likely include exclusive launch DLC and, much like EA’s other titles, an online pass (even though nothing but the cover art and price is listed on the pre-order page at this time)....

Those playing on last-gen consoles faced bugs, glitches, and crashes that impacted the overall experience.

With only days to go until Cyberpunk’s December 10 release date, it appears many medium-size and small outlets have yet to receive review copies of the game, while larger more mainstream publications were only recently offered press access. This speculation began courtesy of a tweet from gaming news creator and PR man Ryan Brown, who tweeted Friday afternoon that “press still do not have review copies of Cyberpunk 2077, a game that launches next week and touts itself as being 100+ hours....

In our preview of the game, the Game Rant team was pretty impressed, but does the final product fulfill that promise or does Dance Central have two left feet? Dance Central primarily offers two modes of game play: “Perform It,” which is the solo mode, and “Dance Battle.” In both modes, you’ll be required to mirror the dance moves of an onscreen avatar. Each dance move will be displayed on the right side of the screen via flashcard, so you’ll know when it’s time to execute the next move....

Schulman danced a paso doble to “Swan Lake Remix” by District 78, in a costume inspired by Black Swan, the 2010 hit starring Natalie Portman. Ahead of the performance, he explained during rehearsal footage how much ballet means to him, thus making the Black Swan/Swan Lake theme perfect for his routine.

“Tonight I hosted the second episode of Dancing with the Stars that I’m hosting this season and yeah, it wasn’t perfect,” Banks said in a TikTok on Tuesday. “Yeah, I had a lot of fun but I messed up, I said the wrong words, but the thing is, I kept, kept going.” Banks used the on-screen mess up to send a motivational message to those who may find themselves in similar positions....

After switching from Atlus to Namco Bandai as their U.S. publisher, From Software vowed to make a sequel worthy of the regard given to the first outing. Information about that sequel, Dark Souls, has trickled out in teasers, screenshots, and interviews over the last year - but, now we can get a new taste of the horrors From Software has planned for its players in this Dark Souls Story Trailer....

[HTML1] For many, the frequency of video game death is a make-or-break notion; die once, fair enough. Die twice, frustration sets in. Die a third time, and controllers are hurled as the game’s designers and difficulty curve are abundantly cursed. But that is most certainly not the case with fans of Dark Souls, a game that has player death placed as one of its fundamental design pillars. As proof that From Software is going to be keeping that tenet in place with Dark Souls 2, the latest trailer for the game warns players of the many, many deaths that await them, while soothing them with the promise that the game isn’t about death, merely determination....

While viewers relive the stories of Dawson Leery (played by James Van Der Beek), Joey Potter (Katie Holmes) and Pacey Witter (Joshua Jackson), here’s what the actors who played them are up to Where are the Dawson’s Creek cast now?

[HTML1] With so many games entering the free-for-all that is the open-world online zombie survival genre, DayZ resides in the very comfortable position relegated to the game that kicked off the craze. Even so, the implementation of new features has progressed at a slower rate than some gamers may like. To compensate for this development time, some new light has been shed on the game’s most anticipated upcoming features....

[HTML1] Have you ever wondered whether rolling across the ground is a more effective zombie survival technique than crawling? Debating using a bayonet as a hand-to-hand implement? Luckily for you, a group of intrepid survivors have put together a YouTube series that aims to shed light on these burning questions. Going by the name of DayZ Standalone Mythbusters, the series aims to enlighten would-be survivors on some of the more questionable aspects of survival in the Chernarus wasteland....

However, the time that the game has spent in Early Access has not been entirely smooth. At last year’s E3 DayZ creator Dean Hall announced that the game would be coming to PS4 (before later confirming an Xbox release too), causing the game’s PC players to complain that developer Bohemia Interactive was considering console versions before the PC version was close to completion. Then in December, Hall left Bohemia Interactive to found his own company, RocketWerkz....

[HTML1] Welcome to the second episode of our 30-minute gameplay series, this time featuring Visceral Games’ Dead Space 3. Again, the idea behind this series is to showcase what it would be like to fire up a game without any knowledge ahead of time and simply play. Everything that you experience I experience, and everything that you learn or figure out I do as well. Some big changes have been added for Dead Space 3, but only a few are seen in the first 30 minutes....

[HTML1] Even the smallest crossovers in gaming can be fun for fans of multiple franchises, and that’s because there’s something special about seeing two universes come together for even the smallest of easter eggs. The hero of Dead Space, Isaac Clarke, is no stranger to crossing over into other games, he was playable in both Skate 3 and Dante’s Inferno, so it’s not surprising in the least to learn that there will be crossover content making its way into the upcoming and highly anticipated Dead Space 3....

Americans are increasingly more likely to die before the age of 65, according to research published in the journal JAMA, with the biggest rise in deaths between the ages of 25 and 65—known as midlife—recorded in the Rust Belt and the Ohio Valley.
