Indiana Jones And The Great Circle Announced

Indiana Jones And The Great Circle Announced

, , , , , 0

There was an XBox Develoepr Direct this afternoon, and the biggest reveal from it was the next Indiana Jones game, developed by MachineGames and published by Bethesda. Yes, that means it’ll be an XBox exclusive, though if you have a PC that can play the game, there’s a second option. It’s going to be called Indiana Jones And The Great Circle. The story, as you might expect, involves jumping and whipping through dangerous areas while trying to get your hands on a powerful MacGuffin before someone evil does. But the twist? Half the time, you’ll be jumping and whipping in first person. Yes, first person. It’s an odd choice for an Indy game, but it does protect the title from the usual “I bet this is an Uncharted clone” comments. Unlike Disney, Bethesda figures Harrison Ford is too old to be playing Indana Jones, so the role is going to The Last Of Us’s Troy Baker. Tony Todd (Spider-Man 2) was also confirmed to be playing a mysterious character named

Amazon’s Fallout TV Show Arrives This April

Amazon’s Fallout TV Show Arrives This April

, , 4

Before Bethesda got swallowed by Microsoft to make bland space exploration games, they became world famous for the Fallout series — a set of post-apocalyptic RPGs set in a world where the Cold War of the 50s actually went hot and culture pretty much froze there. You typically play as a survivor emerging from their bunker who must now find ways to survive, beat hideous mutants, and converse with a variety of weird characters. Back in July of 2020 it was announced Amazon was looking into making a Fallout TV show. It’s been a long, loooong wait, but the thing is finally crawling out of the underground next spring — Amazon released a trailer to prove it. The original announcement revealed Westworld‘s Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy were in charge. This is still true and turned out to be good for them, as Westworld would decline and then Zaslav would throw it away like yesterday’s trash. Here are the characters you’ll meet and who’s playing them. No Ron Perlman, sorry:

Fallout Roleplaying Game Gains New Expansion

Fallout Roleplaying Game Gains New Expansion

, , , , , 10

Modiphus Entertainment created a tabletop RPG version of Bethesda’s Fallout games years ago, and has been supporting their version with expansions ever since. The latest of these is about to hit: they call it Orange Colored Sky (or Coloured, as they spell it over there). In Orange Coloured Sky, a group of doctors and other caregivers have established a clinic in “Mt. Sin Central,” an ancient hospital in the middle of a ruined city. They offer treatment for ailments of all sorts and Mt. Sin has recently received an influx of chem-addicts who are resistant to the usual forms of medical intervention. The problem is becoming more widespread and the already overworked hospital staff are running on fumes while their supplies are rapidly dwindling. Moreover, the chems involved seem to originate within the territory of a raider gang, which makes fixing the problem even more difficult. The Board of Caregivers have sent out a distress call via Mt. Sin’s Emergency Broadcast beacon. Will you answer their desperate pleas for help?

Hi-Fi Rush, Fight an Evil Corporation with Music!

Hi-Fi Rush is a fusion of Hack N Slash and action Rhythim Game from Tango Gameworks.  A rising videogame company founded by the legendary Shinji Mikami.He is the man who created the iconic, Resident Evil and the The Evil Within. Fans expect him to make a horror game first so launching this upbeat and happy game is unexpected. The first thing I notice are the bright cell shaded 2.5 graphics. You can’t believe it is 3d because it looks hand drawn 2d. With all the dark and gloomy games we had right now, this is a refreshing change. It is exclusive for PC Microsoft players and Xbox Series X/S only and It is now Available. Sorry Playstation  and Nintendo fans because it is not available in other platforms. Music is an important element  of this game because the beats can be useful for timing when to push the button. Unlike most Hack N Slash where you mash buttons, this one have elements of an Action Rhythm game like Guitar Hero

Microsoft Just Bought Bethesda Studios For $7.5 Billion

Microsoft Just Bought Bethesda Studios For $7.5 Billion

Bethesda Studios is one of the largest game publishers of our modern age. They’re responsible for Doom, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Wolfenstein, Dishonored and other iconic franchises. There are few fish bigger in the gaming sea….except for the gigantic whale that just swallowed them. Microsoft shocked the industry this morning by announcing the acquirement of Bethesda as a second-party internal publisher. The purchase wasn’t cheap and only MS could have written the check, but….it just happened, for real. A common complaint among gamers in recent years has been that XBox lacks a good library of exclusives. How do you feel now? “Bethesda’s games have always had a special place on Xbox and in the hearts of millions of gamers around the world,” boasts XBox head Phil Spencer. “Our teams have a close and storied history working together, from the amazing first DOOM, and its id Tech engine, innovating games on PCs to Bethesda bringing their first console game to the original Xbox, the groundbreaking The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind….Please join me

Fallout Falls Into A TV Adaption On Amazon Prime

Fallout Falls Into A TV Adaption On Amazon Prime

Picture this: the Cold War actually turned hot and turned into the nuclear disaster everyone feared it would, leaving the shelter-dwelling survivors to fend for themselves, and in the process freezing the ruins of pop culture in a 1950s aesthetic. Wait, we don’t have to picture it, we can play it…the Fallout series of video games has existed since the original was released for PC in the late 90s. The series has had its ups and downs, especially the later installments (should we mention Fallout 76 or are the memories too fresh?) but until now, it’s remained a video game with no adaptions in any other media. That’s about to change, as series developers / publishers Bethesda and Amazon Studios have entered a deal to create a Fallout TV show. #PleaseStandBy. @AmazonStudios #KilterFilms pic.twitter.com/7YmLZKIPAe — Fallout (@Fallout) July 2, 2020 The show is behind handled by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, the team responsible for the Westworld series on HBO. Already, the jokes and memes are circulating about this adaption

E3 2019: Doom Eternal Is Assured This November

E3 2019: Doom Eternal Is Assured This November

The highlight of Bethesda’s E3 conference came toward the end, when a big chunk of gameplay from Doom Eternal was unveiled, as well as a release date and everything else a demon hunter might want to know. We’re used to dealing with monsters emerging from hell portals on space stations…but this time they’ve invaded Earth! Subsantially more bullets and much louder explosives will be needed to send them back. The locations will be more diverse this go-round, taking you all over the world. The dev team even mentioned “heaven” as a possible location. The battle mode, now called Doom Eternal, pits one Demon Slayer against two demons. Is two against one fair? The DS will be fully stocked and when you’ve got this much firepower, it’s more like it’s unbalanced on the other end. The demons will have special abilities they can use to stand a fighting chance. Then there is the Collector’s Edition, now available for preorder. For 200 bucks you get a Doom lore book, a lithograph, a

E3 2019: Commander Keen Is Coming Back, But…

Retro gaming fans got a BIG surprise from Bethesda this evening….and then their expressions quickly changed. Everyone has a “rage moment” at E3, and we don’t mean the good kind of rage. That point when a company announces news that not only disappoints, but smashes all your hopes. For me, it was finding out Microsoft had purchased Double Fine, making a Switch or PS4 release of Psychonauts 2 impossible. For a lot of others, it was the appearance of Commander Keen. Commander Keen is an iD Software creation that predates Doom by several years. He was a little kid with a laser gun who hopped around alien worlds, and his original DOS game popularized the concept of shareware. Many a youngster had a blast guiding Keen through his garish CGA-tinted universe, and the sudden appearance of a game by that name tonight made those now-grown-up fans jump up and holler.

Ever since Arkane Lyon, the studio behind Prey and the excellent Dishonored series, said they were retiring the latter in favor of something different, we wondered what their new idea was. Tonight during Bethesda’s E3 conference, they rolled out the first trailer for…Deathloop. The premise, as best as we can understand it: Two assassins, Colt and Julianna, wind up on a remote island called Blackreef. The island has all sorts of dangers, but Colt’s biggest problem is that his day keeps resetting and keeping him from making any progress escaping the island. He’s trapped in a time loop, and the trailer suggests the only way to break it….is to find and assassinate Julianna. Julianna seems to have the same goal, but HER mission is to PRESERVE the time loop. DEATHLOOP” transports players to the lawless island of Blackreef in an eternal struggle between two extraordinary assassins. Explore stunning environments and meticulously designed levels in an immersive gameplay experience that lets you approach every situation any way you like. Hunt down

Elder Scrolls Legends Could Skip The PS4

Elder Scrolls Legends Could Skip The PS4

, , , , , , 0

Respected video game developer Bethesda let out a BIG shocker today: one of their major fall releases may not appear on the PS4, despite earlier promises…and it’s all Sony’s fault. The game in question is their card-collecting role-playing title Elder Scrolls Legends, currently available on PC, Mac and mobile but heading to consoles later this year. Versions for Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4 and XBox One were promised a few months ago…but that was before Sony became anal about cross-play. Online multiplayer is a crucial element of Elder Scrolls Legends, and Bethesda intends to utilize cross-play to get as much activity going as possible. Microsoft and Nintendo allow it, Sony only allows activity between PS4s and has gone far enough to cripple major popular releases over it (Fortnite, anyone?) Now Bethesda has thrown down the gauntlet: if Sony doesn’t budge on this, their system may not get the game. At all. “We cannot have a game that works one way across everywhere else except for on this one thing,” Bethesda spokesman

New Details come out about the new installment of one of Bethesda’s flagship franchises Fallout 76   One of the spotlight titles of this year’s E3 is Fallout 76 from Bethesda and while we didn’t have much to go on at first. We now have more information about the game. Fallout 76 is a prequel to the other games in the franchise and takes place in West Virginia. With the aid of new technology Bethesda has managed to flesh out the game’s world which is the largest in the franchise. The world will have six distinct regions and will use the lore from West Virginia to help shape the creatures in the game. The game has optional multiplayer integrated into the world though the game is all online. While you are able to play solo, Bethesda suggests to play with friends or online since it will make some parts of the game easier to play. Your progression also carries over with you and you will not lose progress. They consider
