Ahead of Microsoft's E3 briefing next week, Xbox boss Phil Spencer has spoken out to assure fans that--even though s, but what about you? Let us know in the comments below.
Count Dooku in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Christopher Lee leaves us a legacy of incredibly convincing and unforgettable villains. No matter how you feel about the Star Wars prequels, there's absolutely no denying the power of Christopher Lee as the corrupt Jedi Master Count Dooku. (Photo: 20th Century Fox)
Saruman in The Lord of The Rings Trilogy
Christopher Lee perfected the portrayal of very human characters who found themselves trapped by their lust for power. Saruman the White's fall from grace wouldn't be the same without Lee's complete conviction. (Photo: New Line Cinema)
Francisco Scaramanga in The Man With the Golden Gun
A KGB assassin who's committed to a fair fight? Roger Moore has his work cut out for him in his battle against the ultra creepy Francisco, one of the most memorable villains in the Bond series. (Photo: United Artists)
Ansem the Wise in Kingdom Hearts II
Square Enix knew exactly who to cast when they needed a noble king who gets exiled to the Realm of Darkness. A once-great man driven by vengeance is a role Christopher Lee was destined to perfect. (Photo: Square Enix)
Dracula in Dracula: Prince of Darkness
Move over, Bela Lugosi. When Christopher Lee first donned Dracula's cape for a series of Hammer Films resurrections, his face became synonymous with the vivacious vampire. (Photo: 20th Century Fox)
Dr. Catheter in Gremlins 2: The New Batch
Gremlins 2 is certainly campier than its predecessor, but it's a perfect match for Christopher Lee as a deviously mischievous scientist overseeing an out-of-control corporate laboratory. (Photo: Warner Bros.)
Lord Summerisle in The Wicker Man (1973)
Let's pretend the bee-filled bummer of a remake starring Nicholas Cage never happened. For fans, the real Wicker Man will always be the original 1973 version with Christopher Lee leading an angry mob of occult villagers. (Photo: British Lion Films)
Dr. Wilbur Wonka in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
Throughout most of Tim Burton's bizarre take on the classic children's book, audiences are left to wonder where Johnny Depp's outlandish Wonka could have come from. When we finally learn of his deranged dentist dad, played by Lee, it all starts to make sense. (Photo: Warner Bros.)
Overlord Lucan D'Lere in EverQuest II
Lucan may be the overlord of a levitating fortress in this classic MMO, but he's also a fallen paladin bound by an ancient curse. Who else could play him besides Christopher Lee? (Photo: Daybreak Game Company)
Pastor Galswells in The Corpse Bride
When you need a ghastly priest to preside over an arranged Victorian marriage, Christopher Lee is your man. His stirring voice talents add an indelible spark to Tim Burton's classic stop-motion film. (Photo: Warner Bros.)
Humans have many ways to passively express their love of something. We've got the tasteful emblematic tattoo that only the likeminded can appreciate. There's the loud-and-proud t-shirt that screams your passions as you saunter around the streets.
And of course, the braver among us can go the lifestyle choice route and wear a
Ahead of this afternoon's release of NPD sales data for May 2015, Sony has issued a comment on them, announcing that the
"As we head into E3, we would like to thank gamers for making PS4 the top-selling console and the leader in software sales in the U.S. in May," a Sony spokesperson said in a statement. "PS4 continues to be the cumulative sales leader in the US and globally with more than 20 million consoles already in the market. We are truly humbled by this success and we look forward to sharing what's next for PS4 at our E3 press conference on June 15."
There's not yet any word from Microsoft or Nintendo on how their respective platforms performed in May, but stay tuned for anything they share, as well as the NPD Group's report, which we'll be updating this story with later today.
Harmonix is now widely known because of its work on Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and other popular music games. But the studio didn't start making blockbuster rhythm titles. Most people had never heard of the small developer from Boston.
But the company wanted to get the word out, and so it made a pitch video. And, in my opinion, the result is about as much of a 90s-era product as anything imaginable.
Along with the sweet saxophone music, bizarre camera angles, and awesome text effects, the video showcases Harmonix's first project, an interactive music-production program called the Axe. Keep an eye out for the animation of the music. It's particularly great.
The video shows the lineage of Harmonix's work, and it's easy to see how it went from the Axe to Rock Band. The studio's been trying to make creating music accessible to everyone since the very beginning.
If only the developer's later games had more head-exploding claymation like the Axe...
After watching the live Oculus Rift presentation in San Francisco Peter, Danny and Justin talk about the latest details of the Oculus Rift including new design, new peripherals, and new games.
In response to player feedback, Blizzard will bring the ability to fly to from Hazzikostas announcing the new achievement prerequisite for flying in Draenor.
"We believe this strikes the right balance between ensuring ground-based content lives up to its full potential, while providing players who've already fully experienced Draenor's outdoor world extra freedom to 'break the rules,'" he said. "This also provides a general blueprint going forward for content to come. Players will explore new and undiscovered lands from the ground, and then once they've fully mastered those environments--a notion that continues to evolve with each new expansion--they can take to the skies and experience the world from a new vantage point."
Patch 6.2 does not yet have an exact release date, but it's currently on public test realms and is expected to go live in the coming weeks.
Publisher CD Projekt, parent company of Witcher developer CD Projekt Red, announced today that most PC players play includes new cards for Gwent and a quest about a town run by pigs.
During Oculus VR's Rift press conference today, the company announced that it is creating a platform for game distribution similar to Steam.
Called Oculus Home, the platform will house all of the virtual reality games that are compatible with the Rift headset. Different to Steam, however, Home works with the headset so that you do not have to remove it to launch, buy, or discover games. Home will also have a social component: you can see what your friends are doing and view their favorite games.
