As it stands, it seems like Microsoft’s E3 2017 press conference will mostly focus on Project Scorpio, but that doesn’t mean it will be free of games. Fans can expect to see some big name Xbox One console exclusives on display, including the likes of Crackdown
The best way to describe Fable 3 is an introduction to RPGs. The normal RPG fare of branching ability trees and leveling up is missing. In its place is an engaging, but simple, experience for those looking to dip their toe into the RPG world. Players don’t need to understand leveling to understand how to successfully play the game. They don’t need to dive deeply into a complex menu system in order to change out equipment so they’re geared correctly for a fi
Besides the games listed here, there are sure to be many others shown at E3 2018 this year. After all, one of the main reasons to tune in to E3 each year is for the surprise game announcements, and it will be exciting to see everything E3 2018 has in st
While this live-action interactive game is very short and definitely won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, it is an experience that has certainly stuck with me this year. Unlike most FMV heavy games, Erica doesn’t try to justify its use of live-action through its premise, it’s just how Flavourworks wanted to tell this story. That was an incredibly risky move, but the experience is held up by good writing and a great performance by Holly E
Crackdown 3 is promising a level of destructibility that we haven’t really seen in gaming before, and it will be exciting to see if it can pull it off while also delivering a compelling open world experie
I really like Death Stranding , but for the opposite reasons of most people. Many despise the traversal mechanics and adore Kojima’s writing. I can barely stand many of Kojima’s cringey scenes, but love the melancholic but tense and engaging delivery mechanics. Death Stranding tends to struggle anytime other than when it does do that. While the writing can be bad and the shooting sucks, I was still totally engrossed by Death Stranding and couldn’t put it down until I finished it. Its “Strand Genre” mechanics are also very innovative, showing how multiplayer elements can be combined with a single-player experience for maximum imp
E3 is always one of the most exciting times of the year for gamers, and E3 2017 should be no exception. Kicking off this Saturday, June 10th with EA’s press conference, the show will run until June 15th, with plenty of high profile games sure to be given the spotlight over the course of the w
These 10 games and many others are sure to make E3 2017 a can’t-miss event for gamers. And while the games on this list are highly likely to be at E3 in some capacity, it’s worth noting that the show is usually filled with surprises as well, meaning that the most exciting game at E3 might not even be announced
Dicey Dungeons made deck-building interesting by turning genre conventions on their head in its various playstyles. It is a game that everyone should give a whirl, even if they don’t typically like roguelikes or deck-based games. Dicey Dungeons never stops being fun and is far and away the best indie game I played this year. I don’t have a joke for this one, but I think the jokes have been on a good roll thus
As 2019 comes to a close, DualShockers and our staff are reflecting on this year’s batch of games and what were their personal highlights within the last year. Unlike the official Game of the Year 2019 awards for DualShockers , there are little-to-no-rules on our individual Top 10 posts. For instance, any game — not just 2019 releases — can be conside
Fable 2 and 3 were great games for many reasons, but they were also great games because of the good boy you get to have at your side throughout. Having the woofy little pupper helping you out in your Adventure Games Weapons to locate treasures and defend you in battle made it feel great to have a dog. And with the gaming industry’s obsession with petting random dogs in game worlds, why not give players the chance to pet their own companion at any given t
Fable 2 was set 500 years after the original story, and Fable 3 set only 50 years after the second game. The game’s creator, Peter Molyneux told IGN that the time jumps between each games time periods were a “big mistake” and so I’m confident that Playground Games may honour that thinking and just send things back to simplicity. I’d like to see a game set somewhere in those 500 years but through a story that doesn’t deteriorate the lore for Fable 2 an
The final new feature in Fable Anniversary (besides achievements) is that of SmartGlass, something that is weighing heavier and heavier in overall experience these days. As admitted by Lead Designer Ted Timmins, it was basically implemented here as way to test the technology’s capabilities for future implementations. Thanks to that, there are actually a few interesting features that the app offers. Unsurprisingly, it’s basically an interactive map, but they’ve worked with Prima to also provide the locations of key items and characters (without going into too much detail). While this may seem a bit like cheating at first, it’s helpful enough only to ensure that you won’t get lost and makes it so you won’t result to using a full-blown strategy guide.
