EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Ilya Muromets Developers Jason V. Williams & Anatoly Subbotin

One of things people love about flying games (and racing games, and motocross games…) is the opportunity to get behind the wheel of many different vehicles. But in the upcoming World War I flight simulator Ilya Muromets, due out on PC later this year from 1C Game Studios, you’ll mostly be behind the wheel of one vehicle: the Sikorsky Ilya Muromet, a Russian bomber built by iconic helicopter designer Igor Sikorsky. But while the titular game lets you fly other planes, in talking to two of the developers — 777 Studio’s Jason V. Williams and 1C’s Anatoly Subbotin — it doesn’t really sound like you’d want to.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Skara: The Blade Remains Co-Creator César Ortega

We all know how mixing peanut butter and chocolate was a genius move. But it’s not the only example of people mixing disparate elements into some new and cool. Consider the upcoming game Skara: The Blade Remains, which mix elements of fighting games, RPGs, and the multiplayer modes of action games, and will be coming to PCs via Steam Early Access later this month. Though in talking to the dev studio’s co-founder César Ortega, it seems that mixing those genres together wasn’t as easy as ramming a piece of chocolate into a jar of peanut butter.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle Of Stalingrad Developers

At a time when the phrase “flying game” invokes images of irritated birds, you might think you’d see a new ultra-realistic flight simulator when pigs fly. Well, get ready for aerial bacon come September, because that’s when 1C Game Studio will be releasing IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle Of Stalingrad, a realistic World War II flight simulator for the PC. And while it won’t have any annoyed fowl, 1C’s Anatoly Subbotin and 777 Studio’s Jason V. Williams do say this latest installment in the IL-2 Sturmovik series might appeal to more than just wannabe pilots.

Thoughts On The Destiny Beta

Last night, I spent a couple hours playing through the beta of Destiny, the upcoming sci-fi first-person shooter RPG that Bungie will release September 9th on the PlayStation 4 (which is what I played the beta on), PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360. And while I found it to be an invigorating game that recalls what Bungie used to do in the Halo games, there were also some easily fix issues that made me think it could be even better.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Super Comboman Creative Dome Piece Justin “ICJ” Woodward

Given that most games come out regular before getting super sized, you can’t help but be excited by a game that’s already super like Super Comboman, which is coming to PCs via Steam thanks to the good people at Adult Swim Games. But in talking to Interabang’s Justin “ICJ” Woodward, the Creative Dome Piece on Super Comboman, it’s also not hard to get hungry.
