It's finally revealed. Treyarch just released a new trailer showing Call of Duty: Black Ops 2's multiplayer. Check out the new gadgets at your disposal. All the new stuff are all futuristic and aside from that, multiplayer looks like the same game two COD games ago. Still, we all know we are going to get pulled in once again somehow. Check out the trailer below.
Next question - How will zombies mode work for the sequel?
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 will be out on November 13 on Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
Assassin's Creed 3's latest trailer is not really a trailer for the game itself, but more of a trailer for the latest version of the Anvil engine called Anvil Next. Assassin's Creed 3 and Assassin's Creed 3: Revelation are the first games to make us of the game engine. Have a look.
I lost interest after Assassin's Creed 2 since Brotherhood and Revelations were not really bringing anything new to the table. The third game on the other hand is a different story. Wandering through the forest Assassin's Creed style is already a huge plus for me. Plus, they say that this game will finally conclude the story of Desmond Miles, so I'm curious to how that plays out.
Assassin's Creed 3 will be out on October 30 for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
A new multiplayer mode called Agent Hunt has just been announce for Resident Evil 6. This mode let's you place as one of the monsters in the game with a simple objective of trying to take out the main characters. Now with this now included in the game, there's no doubt in my mind that I'll be getting Resident Evil 6. Who doesn't want to invade and mess up another player's game?
When I read the report from Andriasang, I was all of a sudden excited buy this game. This was the push I needed to join the hype wagon for Capcom's upcoming Resident Evil. Agent Hunt Mode is pretty much Left4Dead's Versus mode mixed with Dark Souls' realm invading feature. To unlock Agent Hunt mode in Resident Evil 6, the player is required to finish the game at least once.
Multiple players can enter a player's game and team up to plan strategies to take them out. Players playing the main characters will be informed that another player has taken control of a monster, fun part is they don't know which one. So it brings the game's difficulty a bit unpredictable and gives the game a lot of replayability. Well, if they balance it properly that is.
If this is Resident Evil 6's multiplayer mode, I'm all for this. Resident Evil 5's online features were a waste of space on the disc so hopefully they scrapped all those competitive modes and just focus on fine tuning Agent Hunt Mode.
[UPDATE]
Gameplay footage of Agent Hunt Mode was just released.
Ada Wong was also announced to be playable having her own campaign. She won't have a partner, and will show yet another perspective in the game's story. Gameplay footage can be found below.
Resident Evil 6 is out on October 2 for Playstation 3, and Xbox 360. The PC version is planned for a release after the console versions.
Capcom's newest title Dragon's Dogma was a success, success to the point that it earned enough to be granted a sequel. The open-world RPG set a first week sales record in Japan and shipped more than 1 million copies globally. For Capcom, that was enough to consider Dragon's Dogma a major franchise. Development for Dragon's Dogma 2 has started and the created spilled some details for the sequel.
Speaking to Japanese magazine Famitsu, the Dragon's Dogma creator Hideaki Itsuno says that the game world in Dragon's Dogma is only 2/3's of what he had planned for the game. Only 60% to 70% if his ideas were added to Dragon's Dogma. Meaning - there's a lot of extra content to use for the sequel. He was also planning a quest creator for players to make their own content.
Quest creation is always good, but I'm more excited on the how big the world will be for the sequel. Dragon's Dogma has proved it's worth to Capcom. Since the first was only 2/3's of what they were planning, I'm positive we'll be seeing a sequel that's double the size of the first.
If you're thinking that more than 1 million copies shipped globally was small, then your right. But it's that hard for brand new titles to even hit the 1 million mark, especially in just a few months. Hearing talks of a sequel this early shows the game's success.
What did you guys think of Dragon's Dogma? I think the game's great, and the pawn system is sheer genius. Working on the review now so I'll have my thoughts posted soon.
EA just released a new video of Crysis 3 that let's you choose which play style you prefer if you were actually playing the E3 2012 demo. Go stealthy or guns blazing, it's up to you. It's a very unique way to show-case the two types of approach you can do in a game like Crysis 3.
Crysis 3 seems to be just like the last game but now with a bow in hand. My first reaction when the third game was announced was the fact that it seemed more like an expansion rather than a sequel since setting and the types of enemy you will be facing seem pretty much the same. But I have to be honest, the game still looks amazing. Crytek's CryEngine 3 is still a new game engine and until now, Crysis 2 is the only game released that runs on it. I'm still waiting for that feature that sets the two games apart, and no, the bow doesn't count.
Crysis 3 is planned for a February 2013 released for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. There are talks about a Wii U port when the console gets released but nothing is certain at this point.
