The Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3, was at one time the only major video game trade show that mattered. While its importance and profile has decreased in recent years, mostly due to the rise of company-specific shows like BlizzCon and QuakeCon, as well as the bleeding of video game interests into the wider pop culture conventions like Comic Con, E3 is still a major focal point for video game market

When Fable was released in 2004, good/evil, black/white, morality was all the rage. Developer Lionhead had even previously released two games literally called _Black & White _ in which the player was a God who could protect or torment both their people, and a giant animal ava

Game trailers are one of the most effective marketing tools for developers, since just a few minutes worth of video can drive hype and excitement to overflowing levels within the gaming community. Throughout this year, gamers have been entertained by some of the most impressive trailers ever relea

The trailer breaks from the franchise’s hardcore action and slows things down a bit, allowing viewers to see the softer side of the series’ protagonist, Kratos. The seasoned warrior instructs his son in the art of hunting, weaving together guidance and discipline as only a parent can. The trailer has PlayStation 4 gamers excited for the next chapter in the God of War saga, and for the new story arcs that may generate from the g

Gears of War has always been known for emotionally impactful trailers, and the Tomorrow trailer for Gears of War 4 is no different. The trailer offers a look into the life of JD Fenix, who must take on the calling of his father 25 years after the events of Gears of War

Not entirely encouraging, is it? And yet, that message is the first thing that greets players who boot up the game, every single time they do so (though it can, thankfully, be skipped). Consider it foreshadowing. The Journey is regularly interrupted with control tutorials – almost constantly at first, less frequently as it progres

While creating a sprawling Adventure Games Beginner Guide controlled only by body movements may seem impossible, the world has been carefully sculpted around the concept. Nearly the entire game is on-rails, with player-controlled progress limited to traveling via horse and carriage. Movement of Seren is controlled by grabbing onto the reins. Once holding on, jerking both hands up in a cracking motion makes the horse go faster, while pulling your hands up towards your body stops her. To move left or right, you pull the hand of the intended direction towards you while extending the opposite arm. Intensity is based on how fast and dramatic the gestures are. Instead of simply darting to the next area, however, players must pay attention to not run into obstacles while scoping out any side-areas, where treasure chests or revealing NPCs can be found.

Battlefield 1 ’s success didn’t start when the game launched in October. Rather, it started when EA released the game’s announcement trailer back in May . From the gritty, brutal action, to the powerful rendition of The White Stripe’s Seven Nation’s Army, this is one trailer that incites incredible emotion within any gamer that watches it. Even now, seven months after the trailer’s release, it still has the ability to spawn goosebumps for view

Fable: The Journey represents Microsoft ‘s latest – and likely final – attempt to prove that Kinect , in its current incarnation, is a viable control interface for more than just dance simulators and mini-game collections. Developed by Lionhead Studios , with the now departed Peter Molyneux serving as Creative Consultant, The Journey puts players on a guided, first-person tour of Albion which, thanks to the power of Unreal Engine, has never looked better. But does the game play as good as it looks? Read on for our full review of Fable: The Journ

After escaping the T-Rex and the enemy clan, Vin Diesel and his group find themselves in a ruin full of technology . Of note, the child in the trailer examines a rock with several carvings on it. Though this mural certainly doesn’t confirm any dinosaurs, it should be said that there are several on it that didn’t show up in the trailer. Aside from the T-Rex and Brontosaurus which already had spotlights, there are at least three other dinosaurs shown that aren’t yet accounted

While every game has rideable horses, Fable ‘s bestiary is diverse enough to include some exciting options for rideable animals. Wolves have always had a prominent place in Fable ‘s world, not to mention bears, deer, and other traditionally British fauna. With the letter entries pushing further into the future, it’s not unthinkable we wouldn’t see cars or other vehicles make an appeara
