How Fallout 4 Mods Will Work On Console

Fallout 4 is gonna have mods on Xbox One and (hopefully) PS4. But consoles aren’t like PC’s wild, wild wasteland. There are rules. First, the good news: Bethesda wants there to be as little red tape as possible. Want to render your Fallout 4 save a smoking pile of irradiated scrap (that’s jealously guarded by…

Oculus Touch Controller Built For Games, Not VR Porn

Virtual reality porn is already a thing, and it will likely only get bigger with time. So what’s Oculus doing about it? Well, they’re not stopping it, if that’s what you’re worried about. Oculus wants the Rift to be open to whatever unforeseen applications people dream up, so you can put genitalia all up in…

Our First Glimpse Of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided In Action

Today Square Enix debuted the first in-game footage of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. As expected, it’s cyberpunk as fuck. The trailer is heavy on three things: 1) action, 2) the color black, 3) the color gold. The first part is a bit off-putting (Deus Ex is about out-sneaking and/or out-smarting, damn it), but it does…

Square Explains World Of Final Fantasy

Remember thatother Final Fantasy from yesterday’s Sony conference? Today Square Enix explained it. Kinda. Square discussed the RPG that nearly started riots during their E3 press conference. World of Final Fantasy, they said, is being created with three main goals in mind: To be playable by anyone of any age or gender To create a…

Just Cause 3 is coming out on December 1st. It’s got a better grappling hook, a wingsuit, car surfing, explosions, a new island, unlimited C4, and more explosions. Looks great.

New PS4 Game Lets You Build… Dreams?

Dreams is a game about building. Building dreams. It looks bizarre, but in a (I think?) good way. It’s from LittleBigPlanet creator Media Molecule. Their goal is to give people a set of tools that will enable them to build dream-like scenarios and share them with each other. Creation is based less on traditional video…

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Gets A Flashy CG Trailer

It’s not playable, but it is pretty cool looking. In it, Jacob and his crew, The Rooks, leap between stagecoaches, run across train rooftops, and steal members from other gangs by being too cool for school. Shit, they are probably even too cool to return to school at age 32 to finish those last few…

The Crew is getting an expansion. The Crew: WildRun will bring a “complete graphical overhaul” and “wild rides” to Ubisoft’s wide-open racer. That means monster trucks, motorcycles, dragsters, and drift cars. It’s out November 17th.

Bethesda is hoping to bring Fallout 4 mods to PS4. As part of Gameslice’s E3 show, Todd Howard mentioned that he wants to bring mods to PS4 sometime after Xbox, which we can expect next year. Fallout 4’s PC mod tool set won’t be available until early 2016, so console mods will come sometime after…

The New Need For Speed Has A Big Open World, Police Chases

Vroom-vroom. EA just showed off a bit of the new Need For Speed. It has a big open world (twice the size of Rivals), customization for those of you with gears where your gray matter’s supposed to go, and of course, police chases. Here’s what it’s all about: “Built around real world icons are five…

Grand Theft Auto V is not $20 on Steam right now. Despite multiple misleading listings on GTA’s Steam franchise page (they’re for cash card bundles), it’s still at regular price. Suddenly last week’s GTA price shenanigans look less benign. [Update: The issue has been resolved. Valve says it was a “technical error.”] GTA V’s price…

Rock Band 4 is coming out on October 6th. It’s got freestyle guitar solos, which let you make your own cool “reeeeer” and “waaaaah” sounds even if you’ve never touched an actual guitar and/or do not have a mouth.

Rise Of The Tomb Raider Has Some Serious Next-Gen Ice

Microsoft just showed off more of Rise of the Tomb Raider during their press conference, and damn, that ice. Things get dicey quick with Lara scaling a frozen-un-solid cliffside and nearly falling to her doooooooom. But Rise of the Tomb Raider would be a pretty shitty name for a game exclusively about Lara Croft falling…

Ashen sure looks pretty. And Ico-inspiried. It’s “an action RPG about a wanderer in search of a place to call home.” Also the world has no sun. Bummer. Damn, though, that art. It’s coming to Xbox One and PC.

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare is getting a sequel. The hyper-colorful shooter is coming to Xbox One in spring of 2016. No word yet on whether or not it has a dog.

The Complicated Women Of The Witcher 3

When I think of how The Witcher 3 depicts women, handles sexism, and deals with other hot-button subject matter, I think of one quest: The Bloody Baron. Here’s the setup: Geralt of Rivia (the character you play) is searching for his lost adopted daughter, a woman named Ciri. Turns out she spent some time with…

The Truth Behind The Steam Summer Sale Controversy

Raising your prices right before Steam’s big summer sale and then “discounting” them back to where they’d been for months sure sounds scummy, right? A handful of games have been accused of it, but the truth of the matter isn’t so black-and-white. It all began with a series of angrily lobbed accusations on Reddit, stemming…

Too Bad Steam’s Summer Sale Game Is Kinda Broken

This year’s Steam Summer Sale comes with a twist: an entire game you can play to unlock new deals, trading cards, and the like. There’s just one problem: it’s not really doing the whole “working” thing at the moment. Monster Game, as it’s known, is playable in your browser. It’s kinda like once-you-pop-the-fun-don’t-stop-infesting-your-life-like-a-flesh-devouring-bacteria sensation Clicker…

Blizzard Finds Perfect Solution To World Of Warcraft‘s Flying Problem

Blizzard has gone back on their controversial plan to keep flying out of World of Warcraft’s newest area, Draenor. Kinda. First, the good news: eventually, you’ll be able to use flying mounts in Draenor. You’ll be able to spread your wings and fly on a dragon or a robot or a different dragon or a…

Ambitious New Vegas Modders Rush To Finish Before Fallout 4

Fallout 4 is a real thing finally, and Fallout players are insanely excited about it. The team behind Fallout: Project Brazil doesn’t have much time left. They have to beat it to release. Project Brazil is a massive story mod for Fallout: New Vegas that includes its own campaign set in San Bernardino, California and…
