Far Cry 3 Character Trailer – The Tribe
Just a few moments ago, the first Far Cry 3 character trailer (released two weeks ago, but whatever) went up. Now, after a seemingly eternal wait, the second character trailer, set of profiles, and screenshots are now available for your viewing pleasure! Get ready to be introduced to Citra and Dennis. Dennis, eh? That’s a totally exotic name.
Far Cry 3 Character Trailer – The Savages
Far Cry 3 continues on its inexorable path towards release. Last month, a character trailer for two of the game’s main characters (Vaas and Buck) was released, along with some character profiles and screenshots. Being the punctual, caring person I am, I totally got these up in time. Two weeks is the acceptable turnaround for news postings, right? Right. Enjoy the character profiles, trailer,...[Read More]

Assassin’s Creed III Liberation Developer Diary
I have a feeling October is going to be one of the best all-around months for gaming this year in terms of quality experiences. Not least on that list is Ubisoft’s upcoming PlayStation Vita title, Assassin’s Creed III Liberation. The first full-featured Assassin’s Creed experience on a handheld device, Liberation takes place during the same time as Ubisoft’s other shanking ...[Read More]
Review: Dishonored (360)
Recently, it seems to me that each time I gaze at my handsomely bearded face in a mirror, I become more and more unrecognizable. Not because my beard is taking over my face (it needs a bit of a trim), but because I am undergoing a confusing and frightening change. I’m not talking about puberty, either. I’m talking about my growing fascination with, and enjoyment of, stealth gameplay. I...[Read More]
Review: Marvel vs. Capcom Origins (XBLA)
I never thought I’d find myself recommending a Marvel vs. Capcom game again after the burn that was Marvel vs. Capcom 3. The game itself was entertaining and well designed, but the cash-grab actions of Capcom did more to put me off of it than bad mechanics and awful graphics would have done. I then found myself reluctantly recommending Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, though it was what Marvel ...[Read More]

Assassin’s Creed III hits store shelves in 26 days. While you’re waiting, take some time to learn more about the game’s newest protagonist, Connor (Ratohnhaké:ton). See him in his early years, and see what drove him into the brotherhood of Assassins. Everything I see gets me more and more excited for this game.
