Fallout 4 Collectors Edition Comes with REAL Pip-Boy
During E3 it was announced that the Collector's Edition of Fallout 4 will come with its very own Pip-Boy! You can relive your Wasteland fantasies or round out that Fallout cosplay you've been working on all this time! Right? Well, sort of. It's not so much an actual Pip-Boy as it is a fancy phone case. You place your phone in the Pip-Boy and utilizing the app that will come out at the same time as the game, you can access all the features of the Pip-Boy via the app. Now, even Todd Howard had to admit that it was a bit of a gimmick but he was right in saying that it's one of the best ones.
Jay VergaraPublished 6 years ago in GamersNew 'Tomb Raider' Movie Rips Scenes Right out of the Game — But Do Fans Want an Exact Adaptation from It?
The first trailer for the rebooted Tomb Raider film certainly has people excited. Unlike Angelina Jolie's forays into adapting the beloved character, the latest trailer seems to show a faithful recreation of Square Enix's games.
Alex HodgsonPublished 6 years ago in GamersAliens, Assholes and Elbows: Reliving The Madness That Was 'Aliens: Colonial Marines'!
As Aliens turns 30, we look back fondly on arguably one of James Cameron's (and the Alien franchise's) best outings. So, surely a game based on the 1986 blockbuster couldn't fail to do well...right? In 2006 when SEGA announced that it had acquired the rights to the Alien franchise, our chest could've burst with Xenomorph happiness. However, seven years later when Aliens: Colonial Marines finally hit shelves, we felt like Charlize Theron having a spaceship dropped on us. Sadly Aliens: Colonial Marines looked more like the Alien Atari 2600 game from 1982 than the slick cinematic game we had hoped for. This is what went wrong down on LV-426!

It's been a long time since I've lost and attached to a game like this one. All from the graphics, setting, stage interaction, storyline, and character emotions. I could not get enough of this world, I needed to walk through every room and interact with everything you could in the levels just to be and feel closer to this masterpiece.

Aaron DennisPublished 6 years ago in GamersHow the 'Uncharted' Franchise Created an Action-Adventure Game Worth Playing
Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Uncharted series. At long last I finally found the game I have been searching for. I am a die hard fan of Indiana Jones and have been searching for a game that would both satisfy my need for historical adventure plus have engaging gameplay. The Uncharted Series satisfied both those needs as following Nathan Drake on his adventures to find treasure and uncover the truth to tales told by his mother, and gave me the games that had me up late playing through to find out what happens next.
Christina BPublished 7 years ago in GamersHow 'Just Cause 2' Started My Gaming Addiction
The year was 2013 and I had just gotten a computer. I intended to use it for "educational" purposes, however I discovered a platform called Steam through some friends. At the time I decided to get Gmod to get past the $5 Steam restriction. It was a fun game and one I still play to this day but in early 2014 I was on the prowl for a cheap substitute for GTA V since it wasn't around on PC yet.
Nostalgia Trip - The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion
Oblivion hit me in all the right spots. Despite coming out way back in March 2006, it does not feel dated. Its vast visual appeal and genuine high-fantasy setting remain incredibly captivating. I spent many hundreds of hours within the game, creating at least six characters and completing the main quest line with four of them. Despite all of this time commitment, I am yet to feel anything resembling boredom when returning to this experience.
Chris RoomePublished 7 years ago in Gamers'Next Day Survival': Review
Next Day Survival is a multiplayer survival game with RPG elements, the location takes place in a fictional post-Soviet state, most of whose territory is contaminated by toxic fog. The main point or task for the player is to survive while improving their character using skills, interaction with the outside world or other players, and non-player characters (NPC). At the main menu you have the options of playing by yourself or online in servers. You can also have a basic character that you can design differently or left the way you want him left. After doing all that, if you join a server you start off as a neutral person and you work your way through getting items and such, after getting the basic stuff you need, food, water, clothes, weapons, and ammo you can travel to different towns and talk to the NPCs.
Chris ReedPublished 7 years ago in Gamers'Death Stranding' Theory: Who is Mads Mikkelsen?
With so much hype for Death Stranding and so little information on what it is actually about and no release date yet, all fans can do is speculate. Creator Hideo Kojima, luckily, loves to leave trails of breadcrumbs for his fans to follow, giving them clues to piece together in the meantime. There's a lot of compelling evidence that Kojima's ideas for P.T. andSilent Hills were re-purposed for Death Stranding, including themes of infants, umbilical cords, and potentially Norman Reedus' character. But the character we probably know the least about is the one played by Mads Mikkelsen, the purported villain of the story. It can be hard to tell the purpose of a character without knowing about the story he takes part in, but it may be possible for us to glean some things from the clues we have.
Eden RoquelairePublished 7 years ago in GamersAwesome Saturn Exclusives: Platformers
Hello, and welcome back to Silver Linings where I find the positives in maligned pop culture. This is the second of my lists looking back at the Sega Saturn. When looking at why the Saturn failed like it did, many explanations were brought up. There was the botched early launch that alienated retail channels. There was the fact that the Saturn sold for $100 more than the Playstation and Nintendo 64, a handicap that didn't get reduced until the system was just about dead. There was then-CEO Bernie Stolar's comment that the Saturn wasn't the future of Sega which killed consumer interest after only two years on the market.
Adam WallacePublished 7 years ago in GamersHow 'Destiny 2' Won My Heart
I've never wanted to shoot aliens square in the face more than when I started to play Destiny 2. I was immediately in love and I haven't felt that good playing an FPS game since Bioshock Infinite!
