  • We Will Get To Play The Cave Sooner Than Expected

    TheCaveTitle

    One of the games I have anxiously been awaiting to play is The Cave, the new adventure game from Double Fine Studios and industry legend Ron Gilbert, who created [amazon_link id=”B00642R92A” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Monkey Island[/amazon_link]. Now the wait is almost over because it has been announced that The Cave will be released on January 22nd on the Nintendo eShop for Wii U and Playstation Network and January 23rd on Xbox Live.

    The Cave is a side-scrolling adventure where you pick three characters from a cast of seven (much like Maniac Mansion) and make your way through a magical cave using all three members of your party to solve the puzzles within.

    The Cave will cost 1200 MS Points or $14.99 depending on your platform.

  • Mass Effect 3 Leviathan DLC Gets A Trailer

    Mass Effect’s latest single player DLC is about to hit on August 28 and has Commander Shepard searching for a mysterious being known as Leviathan that may be strong enough to destroy a Reaper. The trailer look gives us a glimpse of what looks like some underwater mech action.

    Being a Mass Effect nut I am looking forward to diving back into the universe but I am wondering how fans who were critical of the game or it’s ending(s) will feel about playing what can only be called a prequel to a known ending.

    Mass Effect 3 Leviathan DLC releases on August 28 on PSN for $10 and Xbox LIVE for 800 MS Points.

  • State Of Decay Brings Zombie Killing Into The Open World

    The game formerly known as Class3 now has an official title. Undead Labs has announced that State of Decay will be coming to Xbox LIVE and PC.

    I know, I know some of you are thinking that zombies are on overkill right now but at least Undead seems to be trying something new by bringing the zombie apocolypse into an open world game that is completely shaped by your actions. Dead Island found great success last year and I think the market is ripe for State of Decay to do well.

    No release date has been announced for State of Decay but one would venture we won’t be seeing it until next year. Until then, here is the first trailer for the game.
