Exclusive Interview: Bladestorm Nightmare Producer Akihiro Suzuki

When Bladestorm: The Hundred Years’ War came out in 2007, it gave players a chance to lead groups of swordmen, spearmen, and archers in battles set during the titular European conflict. But when Bladestorm Nightmare comes out March 17th on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and Xbox One, it will not only include the original game, but a entire second one in which those swordmen, spearmen, and archers will battle cylopses, dragons, and other mythical creatures. Bladestorm Nightmare producer Akihiro Suzuki explains how that happened and how it changes (or doesn’t change, as the case may be) how you’ll play this game.

Iron & Steel Pack (Wild West Rampage, CastleStorm) For Zen Pinball 2 & Pinball FX 2 Review

It’s been three long years since Zen Studios last onade an original table for Pinball FX2 (Xbox One, Xbox 360, PC), Zen Pinball 2 (PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, WiiU, Mac), or Zen Pinball games (iOS, Android, Amazon Fire). But after playing the new “Wild West Rampage” table — one of two in the just-released “Iron & Steel” pack — it’s clear they haven’t lost their touch.

Evolve Solo Mode Review

In the sci-fi shooter Evolve (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC), four Hunters have to track and kill a Monster controlled by a fifth player. But while, as creative director Phil Robb put it, “Evolve is indeed a multiplayer experience at its core,” he also noted, “but it’s great fun solo as well.”

Resident Evil (2015 Remake) Review

In honor of its nineteenth anniversary (?!?), or maybe for some other equally weird reason, the good people at Capcom have released an HD remake of their classic 1996 survival horror game Resident Evil for  PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC. But by neither making it a faithful recreation of the original game, which would appeal to nostalgia buffs and old school fans, nor a truly useful upgraded edition, which would be great for those who want to play a modern version of a classic game, those same good people at Capcom have oddly made a game with very limited appeal.

Saints Row IV Re-Elected Review

By now, we all know there’s no reason to buy the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 version of a game if you’ve already played it on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, or PC, and all it adds is slightly better resolution and the already released add-ons. (Well, unless you like wasting money, in which case I can get you this really cool bridge in Brooklyn, cheap.) But while that’s also the case with Saints Row IV Re-Elected — a new version of 2013’s Saint’s Row IV that’s available on its own for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, and in a bundle with the new (and also available separately) add-on Gat Out Of Hell for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 — there’s something else we all know that Re-Elected illustrates perfectly: game companies don’t do these kind of straight reissues if the original games weren’t fun to begin with.

Which is why, if you missed it before, Re-Elected is the version of Saints Row IV to get.

Saints Row Gat Out Of Hell Review

Having already gone to space (in Saints Row: The Third: Gangstas In Space) and The Matrix (Saints Row IV), the Saints Row series is going to Hell, literally, with Saints Row Gat Out Of Hell. Available as a stand-alone game for PlayStation 4 (available digitally), PlayStation 3, Xbox One (also available digitally), Xbox 360, and PC, or in a bundle with Saints Row IV: Re-Elected, a new version of Saints Row IV for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, this new adventure continues the mindless but magnificent mayhem this series has come to typify.
