Borderlands 2 Skill Tree Builder Is Live!


Posted on September 7, 2012 by Joshua Rust

Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 is my most anticipated title of 2012. While the days are going by (11 to go from today) Gearbox keeps feeding us more and more new information. Today they launched the skill tree builder for everyone to check out. It gives you a preview as to what you want to do with your character – plan ahead so to speak. Unfortunately, the Mechromancer’s skill tree isn’t available – only the four launch characters. Here are the direct links to each characters page, though I’m not sure if you can go directly to them because of the age gate.

Thunder Wolves Flies In With A Trailer


Posted on September 7, 2012 by Joshua Rust

Ubisoft and Most Wanted Entertainment have announced a new helicopter game called Thunder Wolves. It almost makes me reminisce about games I played way back when such as Nuclear Strike and Soviet Strike. What would it take to get those on XBLA? Anyways, Thunder Wolves will feature over 30 weapon/chopper combos and feature co-op play – one will fly the chopper and the other will shoot. Not sure how that will play out, but we’ll see (I’d prefer both players have their own chopper…but I’m not making it am I?)

DmC: Devil May Cry Trailer Shows Off Boss Fights


Posted on September 3, 2012 by Joshua Rust

The rebirth of Dante did have me worried at first. Well, all that worry has vanished because DmC: Devil May Cry is looking amazing. This video, from the PAX 2012 gaming conference, shows of Bob Barbas boss fight and the Overturn mission. (It should be noted that you may have to sign in to your Youtube account to verify age). DmC: Devil May Cry will be released on January 15th. Seems like early next year is going to be stacked up as bad as the end of this year. DMC, Tomb Raider, Bioshock: Infinite, etc…etc…etc…

Posted on August 29, 2012 by Joshua Rust

Far Cry 3 welcomes you to the Rook Islands in this new trailer from Ubisoft. One of the more exciting features about Far Cry 3 that I’m pumped up about is the inclusion of a co-op campaign. Granted it is seperate from the single player campaign, it’s still a great addition to the Far Cry series! Here is what Ubisoft has to say about Far Cry 3: “Join Agent Huntley, an ex-CIA operative, for an insider’s tour of the insanity of Far Cry 3. Discover the island’s history.
