Trailer For Watch Dogs 2 Is Mind Blowing.

Here’s the first official video for Ubisoft’s game Watch Dogs 2, an open world sequel to Watch Dogs released in 2014.

As you can see from the trailer the graphics look utterly amazing and the attention to detail is clear for all to see, but we’ll have to wait until November to find out just how much of the demonstrated footage will alter from actual gameplay.

The plot of Watch Dogs 2 rattles along like so:

Following Chicago, San Francisco becomes the next city to install the ctOS surveillance system, (the Central Operating System), which connects everyone with everything. The game features a new protagonist named Marcus Holloway, who is a young, intelligent hacker wrongly framed for a crime he did not commit when he was still a child by the upgraded ctOS system, ctOS 2.0, which connects his personal information to the crime. Realizing the system brings harm to the innocent citizens of San Francisco, he decides to work with the hacking group DedSec to take down the city’s ctOS 2.0, and Blume, the creator of the ctOS system

Watch Dogs 2 is slated for general release on on November 15th

The New Call Of Duty Will Be Set In Space.

Here’s the first official trailer for this year’s forthcoming Call Of Duty game and this time developers have embraced the game’s previous futuristic settings and are going one further, by launching players into space.

Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare will be a first person shooter but with added aerial combat for gamers to engage with, (as evidenced by the trailer above), and will feature zero gravity environments throughout.

Judging from the trailer COD: Infinite Warfare looks set to boldly go where no other COD has gone before…sorry.

 

Uncharted 4 Trailer Goes Viral For The Wrong Reason.

Earlier this week the trailer for Naughty Dog’s long awaited game Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End was finally released.

As per, the award winning game developer did not disappoint with the trailer hitting all the right marks for fans. Except there was a slight problem with the trailer’s content, more specifically it turned out some of the footage used was from another game.

Accusations ran riot on social media until Naughty Dog themselves admitted that they had indeed used some artwork from Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed. The detail had been spotted by Ubisoft employee Azaïzia Aymar who took to social media and declared:

“I get the ‘thief’ title now!”

Ouch! Turns out it was all an innocent mistake and Naughty Dog apologised for the error by releasing the following statement:

“In our eagerness to get the story trailer out we made a regrettable mistake and didn’t thoroughly vet the art work used for an in game painting. We’ve already updated the trailer. We hold all artistry in high regard and take full responsibility for having allowed this to happen. We want to sincerely apologise to everyone at Ubisoft, the Assassin’s Creed team, the original artist, and our fans.”

We doubt that this ‘mix-up’ will have any detrimental effect on the launch day sales of the game.

 

 

Fallout 4 Wanderer Trailer Is A Work Of Art.

I’ve been counting down the days, like a man trapped in a vault awaiting his release, for when I get my hands on the apocalyptic, open world game Fallout 4.

If watching a clock wasn’t frustrating enough game developer Bethesda have gone and released an eye-wateringly, beautiful live-action teaser trailer called The Wanderer.

Now my fevered thoughts are no longer about the game but of the prospect of a live-action movie adaptation of the game. Just look at this trailer!

Fallout 4 is due for release on PS4, XBOX One and PC on

 

The Longest Recorded Highway Pile-Up On GTA V.

It starts with a simple motorcycle crash on a highway which then culminates in a five minute long pile-up with explosions, crashes and general mayhem.

This video was recorded by gamer Michael Snajczuk, who simply sat back and observed the madness unfold in front of him.

18 Minutes Of Mind Blowing No Man’s Sky Gameplay

Since we first watched a demo of the open world, (open universe), game No Man’s Sky back in 2014 we initially knew that we were witnessing something special.

The hype which has surrounded the title since then has been colossal and following last month’s E3 expo Hello Games has finally turned the lights on and have allowed IGN to explore the game in detail over the next few weeks.

Above is a mind blowing video featuring 18 solid minutes of gameplay, which demonstrates the epic scale of what surely has to be a must-own title for gamers later this year.

 

Bethesda E3 Showcase Featured 15 Minutes Of Fallout 4.

Game developers Bethesda Studios presented a mind-blowing pre-E3 showcase on Sunday night.

Of course the main attraction was a hefty 15 minutes of gameply from their much anticipated fourth Fallout game which looks nothing short of glorious. During the presentation, which included previews of Doom and The Elder Scrolls Online, some truly creative additions to the Fallout franchise were officialy unveiled.

One of the stand-out moments included the reveal of an actual working Pitt Boy device, fetured throughout the game, which you can use in conjection with your smartphone. The working Pitt Boys will only be available to customers who buy the collector’s edition of the game.

The last shock for fans was the release dateof November 10th…which can’t come quick enough.

Avast! Trailer For Fallout 4.

Game developers Bethesda have finally confirmed that there will now be a fourth Fallout game and during their official announcement of their new game they went a step further and delivered a gloriously looking launch trailer.

It’s been almost seven years since the last Fallout game and fans have been foaming at the mouth for news on a follow-up. As of yet very little is known about the forthcoming addition to the game’s franchise except of course it will be set  approximately 200 years after a war over resources that ended in a nuclear holocaust in 2077. The setting is a post-apocalyptic retro-future, covering a region that includes Boston, Massachusetts and other parts of New England known as the Commonwealth.

Bad news for Xbox 360 and PS3 owners as Bethesda have confirmed that Fallout 4 will not be coming to those platforms upon release or for the foreseeable future.

Avast! Second Trailer For Pixels.

Here’s the second official trailer for the Adam Sandler led sci-fi comedy Pixels set for release on July 24th.

The plot for the film rattles along like so:

In 1982, in the hopes of establishing peaceful communication with extraterrestrial life, NASA launches a time capsule into outer space containing images and footage of Earth life and culture. However, aliens misinterpret enclosed video-feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war. They attack the Earth using the games as models for their various assaults, including Pac-Man and Donkey Kong. President William Cooper (Kevin James) calls upon his best friend since childhood, former 1980s arcade champion Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler), to combat the video game characters, Brenner decides to lead a team of retrogamers to defeat the aliens with various technology similar to those used in games.

I’m not a fan of Sandler or James personally, or their movies, but the one saving grace for this film is that it’s directed by Chris Columbus, a man previously responsible for Home Alone, Mrs Doubtfire and two Harry Potter movies. We live in hope.
