RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS


Recommended Posts

I did a search, but didn't find any mention of this game.

 

Sunless Sea is a Kickstarter game that's on Greenlight.

 

It features:

 

- Explore a vast underground ocean

- Survive hunger, terror and betrayal

- Battle cunning sea beats

- Romance your officers

- Discover lost cities

- Consort with pirates

- Lose your mind

- Eat your crew

- Make it back alive

 

Probably not for me, but others may be interested.  :)

 

Maybe you'll be given the option to eat a crew member who tries to romance you.

Well, they got a nice narrator for the video.  That being said, I'm still very skeptical of JA:Flashback.  I kicked in $50 for the kickstarter, but my expectations are still low.

 

Does it look horrible to anyone else?  I know graphics aren't everything, but yeesh.

I can now picture Wodan dancing to "It's raining guns". 

 

Space Hulk was fun but there weren't many missions in the core campaign (12, several of which boiled down to finding the single effective strategy and never deviating from it) and a free DLC that added 3 more missions later). Full Control have since released 3 more packs and are still working on more, each with 3 missions that revolve around a new feature unique to each pack, allow for more variation in strategy and the latest one adds a new chapter with a new terminator type complete with unique powers. Each pack cost £4 so it feels a bit like they're nickel & diming even though obviously they need to pay rent and salaries while they work on the content. All that said, FC did a brilliant job of bringing the tabletop game to the PC, it's very atmospheric, has a nice interface and most of the commonly complained about problems like slow terminator animations have been fixed.     

 

Not sure what to make of Jagged Alliance so far then. The developer seem quite competent and willing to carry on supporting their games but I'd brace myself for a short campaign and the hope that the modding community will make good things with the editor. Very nice footage so far though. I'll be looking on with interest. 

 

"Does it look horrible to anyone else?  I know graphics aren't everything, but yeesh".

 

 

I quite like the art style actually. Is it the slightly cartoony slant that puts you off? They may be trying to make it look like a modern equivalent of JA 1 & 2's sprite graphic art styles.

Far Cry 4 confirmed, set to ship mid-November

It's going to be set in a fictional Himalayan monarchy. I'm guessing the white guy is the self-appointed "king", as it takes a very confident man to wear a pink suit.l

Is it just me or does that "white man" has distinct Mongolian features? 

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

 

*If you can't tell, it's you. ;)

Never mind Himalayas and self-appointed kings.  You're burying the lead here.  Harpoon guns and rideable elephants.  RIDEABLE ELEPHANTS!  :w00t:

An albino Tibetan perhaps? At least it is something different.

Jesus christ, do you have to dock like that each and every time? It looks nice but it takes... forever. 

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.

New Wolf3D looks like first FPS which I will be playing after Quake 4 and Doom 3.

He looks Slavic to me, which is not at all unreasonable for that geographical area.

He looks like a gay version of Putin to me.

If that guy is into cocaine and 80's music he has to be Konstantin Brayko's cousin or something.

Yep, Brayko was immediately who popped into my head when I saw him.
