Fallout 3 vs Fallout 4, In Screenshots

There are enough screenshots of Fallout 4 out there in the wild now that Nukeclearswas able to get a bunch of them and compare them to similar shots from Fallout 3.

EVE: Valkyrie is still looking fun, but…boy, there’s a LOT going on here, visually. I hope it’s easy to keep track of once you’re actually playing it!

Fallout 4’s Robot Is Making Bad Jokes At E3

Bethesda have a talking, animatronic version of Fallout 4’s Codsworth at their E3 booth this year, and he’s doing more than just flailing his arms around.

Retailers across the US, Europe and Australia are informing customers today that the Batman: Arkham Knight Batmobile Edition has been cancelled.

The Sketchiest Graphics I Saw On PS4 Today

“Write something nice,” David Jaffe said to me as I started playing Drawn To Death, his team’s forthcoming free-to-play competitive multiplayer game for PS4. “I can’t just write about it,” I told him. “I want people to see this.” I had already seen Drawn To Death’s unusual pen-sketches-in-a-notebook art style in videos months ago, but…

I Am So Hyped About Shin Megami x Fire Emblem

I am so excited about Genei Ibun Roku, the upcoming Wii U JRPG that mashes together Shin Megami Tensei and Fire Emblem. Everything Nintendo has shown off for it so far has been EXCELLENT. Today, the Nintendo Treehouse held an extended segment on Genei Ibun Roku, showcasing everything from the game’s plot, to the nitty…

We Played The New Destiny Expansion At E3

Yesterday at E3, Jason and I had a chance to play a bit of the next expansion for Destiny, a game showcased at trade shows across the galaxy for journalists who secretly wish they were home playing Destiny. We didn’t get to play all that much, but what we played was pretty good. We worked…

Here’s our latest Periscope that went down earlier today, live at E3. Special guest Brad Shoemaker from Giant Bomb points out some stuff he’s excited about, and then we get a demo of the new Xbox Elite wireless controller. It’s expensive but looks cool.

Getting The Rights To Shenmue Was Easier Than You’d Think

The creator of the beloved open world games says all he had to do was ask. “They felt safe giving me the license to make the next one,” Yu Suzuki told me yesterday. Really, who else was Sega going to give it to? Usually, when folks want to revive long-dormant video game franchises, they have…

So, Kanye West Is At E3 Too

And he’s wearing a Persona 4: Dancing All Night badge, no less. Guess he just settled the debate on who the best Persona girl is (that’s Rise on the badge!) Looks like he’s making his way through the convention already, too:

Super Mario Maker’s Online Features Sound Really Cool

Nintendo isn’t exactly known for its on-point social features. But based on what they’ve shared on Mario Maker thus far, it really seems like they’re going to nail it this time. Yesterday, Nintendo held a Treehouse stream event where they described some of the features we can expect in their upcoming game where you can…

You Won’t Be Able To Use Guns In Mirror’s Edge Catalyst

Oh thank goodness. During EA’s E3 press conference, the company said that Faith “doesn’t need any guns,” which prompted a collective sigh of relief so powerful that it nearly leveled the city of Los Angeles. However, there was still doubt. She might not need them, but would guns—perhaps the single worst aspect of the original…
