Much has been made of the game's art direction, and it's every bit as accomplished as billed, the UbiArt Framework fitting beautifully with the narrative; a simple tale of a girl lost in a strange new world. For large parts of the experience the story moves along nicely, at a pace to match the soothing score. As it approaches the final third, however, it quickly ramps up and offers a climax that draws you in, suddenly presenting a situation much more grave than first thought.
The gentle tempo works well, moving you expertly through the wonderfully varied environments. Ubisoft...
Microsoft unveiled a show line-up earlier today, with the first programs to begin airing on Xbox and Windows platforms in June.
"It's also probably worth saying that none of the activity we're pursuing is coming at the expense any of the investment that's been made in the platform overall or gaming overall," Levin said.
He added: "There isn't shifting of resources away from gaming to this. I mean, the nice thing about playing in a device like this, again, that's nonlinear is there's no finite space restrictions. We're simply a new service that is meant to increase the...
Bringing the game to Android is the immediate goal.
"The idea of getting it onto console has come up from players," Chayes explained. "It's not something we're actually looking at right now."
For the time being, Blizzard's priority is to bring the title to Android devices.

'Triple Deluxe' is a bit of a misnomer, though. That indicates that you’ve got three full games to play here, which isn’t really the case. You’ve got one full platformer, a fun but limited fighting mode and a rhythm action type with King Dedede bouncing along. Of the three, the latter is the weakest. You’ve got to time your jumps in order to get him to collect coins. It’s not all that engaging, can be frustrating, and overall it's hard to know why Nintendo thought it warranted its own mode: it would have been fine as simply a between level bonus collect-em-up (it’s got classic...

VideoGamer's latest Dark Souls 2 guide gives you tips to get through one of the more challenging areas in the game.
The Lost Bastille has three bonfires before the boss: one which can be found after entering the Lost Bastille via the Ghost Ship from No Man’s Wharf, the second is found by entering the area via the bird who you meet by entering its nest after beating The Pursuer, the final bonfire is hidden within the area itself.
For this guide, we’re going to briefly look at a route from the Ghost Ship bonfire to collect all the items, before taking the route to Ruin Sentinel from the Tower Apart bonfire (where the bird drops you off), as this is the best place to start when speed-running...

This is all part of the upcoming Xbox Entertainment Studios documentary, Atari: Game Over, which is due to air exclusively on Xbox One and Xbox 360 in 2014.

Yet, some seven months after Arkham Origins arrived, here we have an expensive-feeling piece of single-player DLC; always promised with the game’s otherwise disappointing season pass, but still hard to actually wrap your head around the fact that it's actually here.
Stranger still, then, that it’s thoroughly decent. Cold, Cold Heart kicks off with Mr. Freeze gatecrashing a posh function at Wayne Manor on New Year’s Eve, icing half the guests in the process and making off with renowned Gotham philanthropist Ferris Boyle. After a few scraps as Wayne himself, you get to the...
