20 years ago (12 years in real time) several hero’s destroyed Diablo and his brothers. They made the world safe for human kind once again. But, as with all things, this piece did not last. The end of times has arrived, heralded by a falling star. Now a new generation of heroes have stepped up, some by the need to do good, some to save the innocent, and others following prophecy. But have they arrived in time to save creation? And more importantly, is it any fun to play?
No surprise here, the first design iteration of the Wii-U tablet controller has changed. Initially it had a control stick setup very similar to the 3DS where it was sunk into the controller and glided around instead of tilted. Well a new image shows two normal analog sticks on both sides. Here is hoping that both sticks are buttons as well, so as to better mesh with the current standard of controllers.
There are a few other cosmetic changes, but the analog sticks are currently the big change we can see. Now the question becomes, will we see a traditional controller that backs up this one?
It has been some time since I last started a new section on the site. Random Rumors will have rumors that are either A) heard from the gaming industry, B) made up by who ever is writing the article because it sounds interesting, or C) a mix of the two. There is not going to be a true schedule to this section as rumors are random, but it should liven things up.
The first rumor we are going to do is the reason why BioShock Infinite was delayed to 2013. Their are two rumors on this.
The day has arrived. Many have installed the cursed data onto their computers, and have since been lost. Their loved ones stopped hearing from them. They don't eat, they don't sleep, the only sign of life is the clicking that emanates from their dens. A highly anticipated game has been released, and it has consumed all. Or at least that is the stereotype that we have believed in for so long. But how many of us are actually swayed in this fashion? How many truly lose themselves to a new game this way?
A soul that has been lost to a game is determined mainly by the observer. We are going to look at two main people in this situation, the gamer and the spouse.
Have you ever wondered what it would look like if some people with too much time on their hands arranged 30,000 dominoes into Nintendo shapes and then set them all off? Me neither, but that does not mean that someone did not do it, and here is the video as proof.
Play much StarCraft in your time? I expect that answer to be yes, and that means at one point or another, you were the victim of a zerg rush. Well now you can relive those memories thanks to Google. Just go to Google.com and search for Zerg Rush. You will be attacked by red and yellow "o"'s that will destroy your search results. They will come from all over the screen and the only way to stop them is to click on them before they destroy the page. Good luck brave warrior.
And yes, I know Zerg should not be a verb, deal with it.
The geeks have whined, bitched, and moaned. Now they get to see the fruits of their labor. EA and Bioware are releasing free DLC that will expand (read: not change) the ending to the epic that is Mass Effect 3. The DLC will add extra cinematic scenes as an epilogue to the game. BioWare believes that this will strike a nice balance between between answering the fans questions and maintaining the artistic vision of Casey Hudson and his team.
Look forward to downloading the DLC on all three platforms (PC, 360, and PS3) some time this summer. And while they have it marked as expiring on 04/12/2014 they do plan on keeping it free and availble as long as they can, but they add expiration dates to all free content.
Were you picked on in Middle / High School? Did you never get the the respect that you really deserved? Well that was life for most us, and now we are in control! We are important, and we have fan bases in the 100,000's (Disclaimer: Other people, not me). But with that pattern, The Guild / Geek Sundry have created a new song, and a music video to go with it.
