BioShock: The Collection (Xbox One) Review

BioShock: The Collection (Xbox One) Review

, , , , , , , , , 0

In the last generation of consoles, BioShock stood out as one of the premier franchises. The new intellectual property was established in 2007 with the release of BioShock on Xbox 360 and PlayStation and eventually went on to spawn two sequels and a host of spin-offs in other mediums. Each entry in the series received widespread critical acclaim and helped bring new life to the first-person shooter genre that has become somewhat stale thanks to the huge popularity of Battlefield and Call of Duty. Little wonder then that 2K Games would look to BioShock when it came time to remaster some of their back catalogue of titles for a new generation of consoles. The franchise was simply ripe for an update, with the first release coming almost a decade ago and fans clamoring to be able to visit Rapture once again with upgraded visuals and performance. The first thing to note with this remastered collection is that it not only includes BioShock, BioShock 2, and BioShock: Infinite but all of

BioShock Collection Rated In Brazil

BioShock Collection Rated In Brazil

While 2K Games have yet to officially confirm the existence of a BioShock collection, rumors seem to have been given some extra credence after the Brazilian ratings board released information about a title called BioShock: The Collection. The Classificação Indicativa revealed that the title would be released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. This suggests that the collection might not be a fully remastered version of the three titles but rather an upscaled edition. The BioShock series began in 2007 with the release of BioShock, and was later continued with BioShock 2 and BioShock Infinite. BioShock 2 was a direct sequel to the original game but was developed by 2K Marin and 2K Australia rather than Irrational Games, who returned to the franchise with BioShock Infinity. In 2014, creator Ken Levine revealed that Irrational Games would close following the release of a final piece of downloadable content, with just a few staff moving with him to a new developer that would concentrate on smaller

WWE 2K16: New Gameplay Features and Details Revealed

WWE and 2K Games have revealed a full list of new features for the next installment of the WWE 2K video game franchise, WWE 2K16 below. The game’s upcoming release is only a couple of short months away, and 2K Games will be looking to impress after WWE 2K15, while it sold over two million copies, received fairly mixed to mediocre reviews from the gaming community. 2K Games is promising to build on the “foundation” set by WWE 2K15. Some of the problems with WWE 2K15 were its removal and lack of features that were available in previous WWE games despite moving up to next-gen consoles. For example, there were no CAW slots for WWE Divas, and there were only 25 empty CAW slots for users to play around with. This was a major step down for a next-gen game. 2K Games revealed a boatload of new details and feature for the game last week during the 2015 Gamescom in Cologne Germany. You can check them out below: 2K Showcase

2K Games has officially announced Mafia III on their Twitter account, revealing that further information about the title will be released in the coming week. However, information on the game’s website does state that Hangar 13 rather than 2K Czech is the developer behind Mafia III, headed by former LucasArts employee Haden Blackman.  The official trailer for the game is set to release on August 5 at the game’s YouTube channel. See the worldwide reveal of the #Mafia3 announcement trailer on 8/5/15 here: http://t.co/sZ71Hl24i5 pic.twitter.com/1T4bdzBFIq — Mafia: Trilogy (@mafiagame) July 28, 2015 “Mafia III is the next installment in the popular series known for immersing players into a world of organized crime through rich narrative storytelling and a beautifully crafted game world featuring period-accurate cars, music, and fashion,” 2K said in a statement. Rumors of a third Mafia game have been circulating for some time, leading to speculation that the title was actually in development. Last month, a NeoGAF user researching the sequel revealed that publisher 2K Games had registered

The WWE has never been shy about bringing Hollywood to their shows, or their storylines. In fact, they are kind of famous for it in a way, but their latest reveal (courtesy of their official website) may just be their biggest and strangest one yet. Why is that? Because the Terminator is coming to WWE 2K16. No, not Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator! You’ll be able to play as the T-800 from both the original Terminator film and from Terminator 2: Judgment Day. “I’ve achieved many things in my life, but I’ve always said success means staying hungry and pushing the limits,” said Schwarzenegger. “I was honored to join the WWE Hall of Fame earlier this year, and now I’ll continue my WWE legacy with one of my biggest film roles immortalized in WWE 2K16. Match the Terminator against Stone Cold Steve Austin®, Seth Rollins® or Daniel Bryan®, and there’s only one possible outcome: Hasta la vista, baby!” “Arnold Schwarzenegger is a living legend with universal appeal, a perseverance for greatness and

Hulk Hogan Pulled From WWE 2K16

Hulk Hogan Pulled From WWE 2K16

, , , , , , , , 0

Despite previously being announced as one of the Legend Superstars for WWE 2K16, Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea) will no longer appear as a playable character in the upcoming pro wrestling video game WWE 2K16. 2K Games, the publisher of the franchise, made the announcement recently that Hogan’s digital avatar has been pulled from the game. In a statement to the media (via Gamespot), 2K representatives stated: “We are highly respectful of the way that our partners choose to run their business and manage our partnerships accordingly. We can confirm that Hulk Hogan will not appear in WWE 2K16.” The removal stems from the fallout of a racism scandal Hogan currently finds himself in. The former WWE Hall of Famer had to have his ties with WWE severed for the alleged use of “racial slurs in a conversation caught on a sex tape.” It has made Hogan a topic of controversy and a pariah. The scandal has caused many of WWE’s merchandise and licensing partners to scramble and remove

Battleborn E3 2015 Preview

Gearbox’s next big project, Battleborn, was on full display for attendees to play at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo. This title was getting a great deal of positive buzz online, so I was very curious to finally check it out and see what the game is really about. Based on the playable demo that was available, Battleborn appears to be an eclectic mix of multiple game genres. It is hard to really classify the title. It definitely has a different play style and feel than a game like Borderlands. However, it absolutely has the signature Gearbox style and sense of humor that is very reminiscent of Borderlands. Overall, the demo was a fun and interesting experience during the Expo. In Battleborn, the entire universe appears to be at the very edge of extinction. The last remaining species and civilized beings have fled to the last habitable planet called Solus. An evil, malevolent group of bad guys called the Varelsi. The Varelsi, who are led by the evil and malevolent Rendain, are

2K Games have been teasing an AAA title for several weeks now and they have finally revealed exactly what that game is with the announcement of XCOM 2.  The sequel to the 2012 turn-based strategy game is being developed by Firaxis Games, who are better known for the Civilization series but also worked on the last entry in the franchise. Last week the publisher launched a website for the Advent Administration that advertised new urban cities that offered gene therapies and DNA splicing for people looking to get rid of illnesses. The website portrayed these new cities as the future of humanity but warnings from apparent hackers littered the site, suggesting that the Advent cities might not have been the perfect places to live. While it was clear that the website was a marketing campaign for a new game, many believed that it may have been for a possible new BioShock game. Thanks to the information released by 2K Games though we now know that the Advent Administration is an
