Funnily enough, now it seems like Activision might be beginning to overestimate what is feasible for the series. Just a few weeks ago Grand Theft Auto V became the most successful entertainment franchise ever. Making $1 billion in just 3 days , the success of the game was extraordinary. Prior to that, Call of Duty: Black Ops was the most successful video game title and it seems like Activision isn't willing to let that record go just
The Batman: Arkham video game series did for gaming what Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight trilogy __ did for film: it fully realized the medium as a dynamic, complex, and accolade-worthy platform for superheroes, while still maintaining the respective franchise's impressive scope. It's a wonder, then, that more video game producers have yet to capitalize on this same success, or try their hand at comic book inspired games - especially considering the current cape-and-cowl trend dominating cine
In the hopes of delivering a message to Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, fans of the OpenIV modding tool have amassed over 40 thousand signatures on their Change.org petition . The petition states that thousands of players have both lost the ability to mod their game and to pursue their passion for single-player modd
That said, there's hardly much to complain about in Julio's mod; and if you keep watching, you'll even see Iron Man perform an elbow drop into a tank and swat a flying helicopter to the ground. The destruction factor is fun, entertaining, and spectacular, but it provides only a tease of what the character is capable of in terms of story and developm
Previously known as the Spike Video Game Awards (VGAs), the show has had a lick of paint over the last year being re-branded as VGX . While it put bigger focus on reveals such as a new generation remaster of Tomb Raider and Telltale Games taking on both Game of Thrones and Borderland s episodic series, the entire affair was still framed by awa
In keeping with the series' increasingly gritty and dramatic tone, as well as its general move away from more star powered cameos, (think Samuel L. Jackson, Burt Reynolds, James Woods, Bill Hader, Axel Rose appearing in previous outings) 'Lazlow' went on to critize the use of professionals for these kinds of minor roles, stat
Rocksteady managed to combine Batman's impressive weapons and action with a compelling storyline and even more compelling three-dimensional world. Video game developers should take note of Julio's successes as well as the various missing components to expand upon the mod and create an actual franchise for the character. And if they can convince Robert Downey Jr. to voice the character, the game could very well be a success before it even hits store shel
As we run into December, it's that time of year again where gamers come together to debate, argue and ultimately celebrate the previous twelve months of gaming. While everyone will keep a mental note of their favorite game, Spike TV's awards ceremony often signals the beginning of 'Game of the Year' articles popping up just about everywhere on the internet. Although procedure was a little different this year as the VGAs went through a bit of a makeo
And fans certainly seem to think so - or more specifically, video game modders . For those unfamiliar, "modding" derives from the verb "modify," and refers to the act of altering hardware or software to perform a function not originally intended by the designer - like dropping a superhero in the middle of **Grand Theft Auto ** , for exam
Expect more details about the new versions of GTAV to come as we get closer to its second release. It's certainly shaping up to be the end-all-be-all version of Rockstar's 2013 hit, regardless of if those who play it are veterans or new players. Yet there are still no heist
"we go towards authenticity […] In the game there's these rival gangs. There's Black gangs, Latino gangs ... we recruited a guy who gets gang members, actual real gang members, like El Salvadoran gang dudes with amazing tattoos, one of which had literally gotten out of prison the day befo
It should be clear that though the modders who make use of OpenIV may not be using the tool to impact the experience for other players online, the shutdown of modding tools by Take-Two Interactive does not distinguish between the tools that affect the multiplayer experience and those that do not. We will be following the story for updates concerning the closing of GTA modding tools, as well as possible statements to come from Take-Two Interact
In the end, what we got was a seemingly fair distribution of awards with GTA 5 collectibles V winning the Best Game, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag winning the Best Action/Adventure, BioShock Infinite winning Best Shooter and Naughty Dog winning the Best Stu
