Players don’t get a great look at them as they fly away quickly, but just before the T-Rex comes bursting through the trees, several pre-historic birds fly away. There was a wide range of avian species in the original ARK , but these seem to be something new. Though it’s likely that birds like the Pelagornis and Icthyornis will make a comeback, it seems players will have to deal with new types of flying dinos as well in the coming seq
It’s hard not to take families with younger children into consideration when reviewing Fable Heroes , but even they deserve something a little better than this. There are hints of complexity that suggest the game is for an older audience, while the look and gameplay make it seem like a broad, kid-friendly title that carries the Fable name. Unfortunately, in service of trying to win over the most gamers (or even non-gamers) possible, Lionhead may lose every
The game begins by taking control of either the son or Adventure Games Online Guide daughter of the hero from Fable 2 , the prince or princess of the fantasy kingdom of Albion. Choosing to be the prince means the character’s father was the hero, while choosing the princess means it was the character’s mother. The game takes place 50 years after the events of Fable 2. The industrial revolution has swept across the land, and things in Albion have changed drastically. The protagonist’s brother is currently the king, but he’s ruling more like a tyrant. From there, destiny requires leaving the safety of the castle (with a faithful dog of course), becoming a hero, garnering the support of the people, overthrowing the oppressive brother/king and becoming the ruler of Albion. How this is gone about is up to the player to dec
There’s a lot of weird stuff in Fallout 3 ‘s Capital Wasteland, but perhaps the most disturbing place players can come across is the small town of Andale. Andale’s residents seem like normal citizens living in post-apocalyptic Washington, but after speaking with Old Man Harris, it’s clear the town is harboring a dark sec
World of Warcraft is massive and full of secrets and easter eggs for fans to discover, some of which are rather creepy. One of the creepiest easter eggs in the entire game is the Children of Goldshire, who are creepy kids that stand in a pentagram formation. At 7:40 in the morning, players can find the children in the second floor of their house, where they are subjected to strange, otherworldly sounds, including threats from the evil entity C’T
Further exploration of Andale reveals that the “strange meat” its townspeople eat is actually human flesh, and that the town is run by inbred cannibals. Upon making this startling discovery, players are then attacked by the people of Andale, unless they have the Cannibal perk, in which case they are accepted by the twisted community as one of their
Despite its handful of shortcomings, Final Fantasy 15 has been a resounding success for Square Enix. The game’s story, characters, and environment are all compelling and interesting, and do a great job pulling players into the fantastical wo
Just looking at the game on a strictly technical level makes it abundantly clear that this is not the Fable fans will be expecting. Much of the interesting design that Lionhead has established has been made more palatable and also less visually appealing. In plainer terms, since that’s what the game was shooting for, the project looks too “kiddy.” But even that would have been understandable if the game had decent collision detection or didn’t constantly suffer from frame-rate probl
Mixed with Disturbed’s rendition of Sound of Silence, and the trailer fits very well into the long line of impressive trailers for the franchise. The trailer is a great introduction to the game, as it’s the start of a new era in the Gears of War universe. This era is likely to continue, too, as the game received strong reviews and continues to sport a large player b
The scariest part of Big Boo’s Haunt is when players approach the seemingly normal piano on the first floor, only for it to spring to life and try eat Mario with its sharp fangs, resulting in one of the only jump scares in Super Mario series history. Now that a fan game lets fans play Super Mario 64 in co-op , though, perhaps Big Boo’s Haunt won’t seem quite as sc
Electronic Arts and DICE broke from the current first-person shooter trend and opted to send players back in time rather than into the future of warfare. Battlefield 1 has been a huge success for the publisher and developer, and continues to garner impressive player numbers across all platfo
ARK 2 was recently announced at The Game Awards, and while most players are just surprised and bewildered at Vin Diesel’s inclusion in the trailer, the trailer did show off a few of the iconic dinosaurs that will be returning for the sequel. The original ARK is all about taming dinosaurs and using them to make surviving on the Island easier, so it shouldn’t be that shocking that fans of the franchise want to know what dinosaurs will be in the game. The trailer didn’t confirm too many yet, but there are some that are easy to miss after watching the trailer just o
