The 2013 show, co-hosted by Joel McHale ( Community ) was more about the developers and awards, more about new announcements and loving the community. Despite a lot of awkward moments, last year's event was an improvement over years past but this year, Keighley is out. He and Spike (and owner Viacom) gracefully parted ways (apparently) and instead, Geoff Keighley is hosting a brand new, non-network-reliant game show, simply titled The Game Awards 2014 . And he's doing it with the backing of Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and bevvy of top game publish
Sadie Adler is an outlaw and bounty hunter who joins the Van Der Linde gang in Red Dead Redemption 2 . Rockstar Games describes her as "a widow who is hell-bent on taking revenge upon those who killed her husband. Relentless and afraid of nothing and no one. The wrong woman to cross, but very loyal to those she loves. " Sadie definitely lives up to this reputation and proves to be a great fighter alongside Arthur throughout many of the game's most memorable missi
This is also true with Forza Horizon 4 , a game basically made to create beautiful pictures. It is no secret that racing games are amongst the best looking games out there, and the Forza series is probably the most beautiful of the bunch. Seeing your tire tracks in the wet mud or my Honda Civic Type R zooming through the autumn leaves is a sight to see…which is why I’ve spent hours with this photo mode in particular. Ranging from the natural beauty of England’s more secluded roadways to the lightened city streets, it isn’t hard to capture a great photo in any type of environm
For FIFA 19 , it was a bit more difficult to capture a great moment. Since the replay camera is locked to a person â€" unless I’m missing something and you can freely control the camera â€" it was hard to get a good frame. What I have below is the best I could come up with, and I do think it looks pretty good, despite the lack of a full-fledged photo m
What To Expect: BioWare will show attendees a similar demo to the one at E3 2014, which focused on the open world and tactical combat in Dragon Age: Inquisition . Panelists will also answer questions about the highly anticipated third g
We have no idea what's going on with the Spike VGX this year or even if there will be one. The annual celebrity-fueled, ad-hungry video games event was consistently chock full of controversy and disdain from the gamer community which is why last year host and producer Geoff Keighley helped re-brand the Spike Video Game Awards into the Spike VGX. It was a ratings success but still begged the question of whether it should contin
A huge part of making a great photo in Skate was the spot; this is also true in games nowadays. This is especially true with No Man’s Sky , and the game's recent NEXT update from this summer. You do have a viewable avatar now thanks to the NEXT update, but they don’t define the experience in the same way as God of War ’s Kratos or Spider-Man. It is No Man’s Sky ’s environments that are the stars: how you frame each environment defines the tone of the atmosphere. Taking a photo in the nearly endless space may evoke feelings of loneliness, while a view of one of the planet’s gorgeous vistas brings a sense of wonderm
Who Will Be There: Michael de Plater (director of design, Monolith Productions ), lead writer Christian Cantamessa ( Red Dead Redemption ), Phil Straub (art director), and the voice of Talion Troy Ba
The nominations for the first ever edition of The Game Awards were unveiled this morning and include the standard set of genre-based categories, a fan category for most anticipated title of 2015 (which mostly includes delayed games) and as a bonus, some love for famous YouTube celebs and eSports teams to help spread the word and bring in the "hardcore" crowd for appro
This year has been really great for photo modes in games, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see it included in some of the more annualized games, assassin's creed shadows dlc|https://creedshadowgame.com/ most notably in sports games. I wanted to see if I could take alright photos with FIFA 19 and Madden NFL 19 ’s replay functions; it turns out you kind of
Ayn Rand was an award-winning Russian-American writer and philosopher whose work, together with that of other dystopian and utopian writers like Orwell and Huxley, inspired much of 2K's BioShock series. It was she who developed and detailed the philosophical principles of objectivism, which inspired both the city of Rapture and Andrew Ryan's personal philoso
There have been plenty of video games based on the work of J.R.R. Tolkien over the years, though not all of them have quite lived up to the excellence of the great author . With its fantastic nemesis system and well-refined combat mechanics though, that's not really a criticism that could ever be levied against the fantastic Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mord
