We don’t have much official information on 2017’s Assassin’s Creed game, except for the fact that it exists and is due for release later this year. It appears as though Ubisoft is keeping the game under wraps for a big reveal at E3, but some leaks have suggested that its full title will be Assassin’s Creed Origins , it will take place in Egypt, and its protagonist will be named Ba Yek . Other rumors have teased that the game will abandon both multiplayer and naval combat, suggesting that this year’s Assassin’s Creed may signal a return to the franchise’s ro
This isn’t always the fault of the gamers setting high expectations, though. Sometimes the companies behind these Adventure games Crafting Guide promise great things and just cannot/do not deliver. Other times, something goes wrong and the game isn’t as good as it could’ve been, or deadlines get out of control and a game is rushed out unfinished. For one reason or another, sometimes games just fall victim to h
One of the main reasons the story falls so flat is your character’s infinite silence. The only way to communicate with other characters is through a series of expressions that only really serve to illicit a base reaction from any NPC that sees them without any real discourse. Sure using the right expression will curry favor with the townspeople of Albion, and the wrong one will help to make them view you are boorish and rude, but it helps to illustrate the core issue with Fable II’s system. The game becomes about the choices you make, but not necessarily about the characters that those choices may alter. Due to the one-dimensional townspeople and lack of real interaction, scenes that should have some amount of emotional resonance fall significantly short. The only real feeling you have for any character is for your faithful canine companion, and even that is tenuous.

1. Homefront
Homefront had a lot of promise behind it. Instead of being an ultra-futuristic space shooter or one taking place in a famous historical war, it would take place in the near future and tell the close-to-home story of a battle between scattered U.S. Forces and an oppressive Korean government. It was something different and held a lot of expectations as a new force in FPS gam

Since the Battle Dragon can only be operated by one bearing the Killstar – possessed by the game’s hero when first encountered – it’s correct to call the creature a pet, since Rex ‘Power’ Colt is its master. A post-apocalyptic hellscape is something no sane person would wish to endure. But if this being were at our disposal, we’d consider

One of the big surprises at last year’s E3 was the reveal of a brand new IP called Days Gone from Sony Bend, the studio behind the Syphon Filter franchise. Days Gone is a third-person open world game where the world has been ravaged by terrifying hordes of fast-moving, zombie-like creatures.
