Today, the Left 4 Dead 2 beta program has introduced the ‘Extended Mutation System’ which will allow modders to author and test out expanded tools before they’re rolled out onto the live servers. Modders will be able to create unique, custom experiences that can be played on either newly created or already existing maps. This major improvement to the scripting system allows modders to go past the existing scripts of the game and write up their own, custom script logic.…

The space shooter genre is relatively uncommon these days. In the 90s and early 2000s, though, they were a dime a dozen. These games were a staple in any PC gamers collection and recently there has been some minor interest in revitalizing the genre. Born Ready Games is composed of developers that obviously have an intrinsic love for arcade-style space shooters, and their Kickstarter-funded game Strike Suit Zero sets out to accomplish this daunting task.

Valve’s plans to make Steam a living room experience are well underway, with new details released on their unique and potentially ground-breaking games console. With as many as 50 million Steam users across the globe (compared to Xbox Lives 40 million), Valve will have high hopes for their Steam box, a device that gives the user access to all of Steams gaming benefits with the new exception of it settling comfortably beneath your TV at home.

Telltale Games have truly outdone themselves this time, providing such a phenomenal, interactive experience which would make any Walking Dead fan proud. The Walking Dead: The Game features five 2-3 hour long episodes that will keep you intensely hooked from start to finish. All the episodes combined share a common theme of survival, but taken individually, each episode places the player in unusual situations that are hard to come by else wise. Standing out in its genre, the game is incomparable to any other adventure experience, and I can assure players and ...

Say what you will about Resident Evil 6, but Capcom is continuing to prove that they haven’t given up on it yet. Not only has a release date for the game’s PC port been confirmed, but Capcom has also revealed a few extra goodies that are in store for fans who spring for the PC version.

The first Borderlands was one of the breakout successes of 2009. With its incredibly unique blend of first person shooter action with role-playing game character customization, Borderlands was an instant phenomenon. Gamers logged thousands of hours shooting bad guys, picking up loot, and repeating. Three years and lot of DLC later, Gearbox has finally released a proper sequel, complete with new characters, new gameplay features, and of course, about a billion new guns.

It took an awful long time and a lot of legal wrangling with Blizzard for Valve to be able to call their new game DotA 2, but that’s what it is. In terms of spirit and content, this is the follow-up to the top Warcraft 3 mod that started a genre and remains popular to this day. Although the characters and maps aren’t a million miles away from those available in, for instance, League of Legends, it’s the unique polish and the effort placed into graphics and gameplay that really make DotA 2 a game worth checking out.

Omerta – City of Gangsters had a lot of promise. It’s developed by the same people that make the endlessly fun Tropico series and promises a Gangster-based strategy game, not really something we’ve seen since the sequel to the Eidos classic Gangsters: Organized Crime. The incredibly high price point at least hints at the idea that Omerta has been worked on to the level that’s deserving of that amount of money. Gangster Sims are criminally overlooked and I’m sure there’s a market for them. Unfortunately, Omerta has probably put off any of that market taking ...

It’s a pretty obvious statement that people enjoyed Ubisoft’s latest entry in the Far Cry series but now we know just how much they enjoyed it. Ubisoft has revealed that Far Cry 3 shipped a staggering 4.5 million copies, surpassing even their high expectations.

When inXile Entertainment put up a drive for a Wasteland 2 on Kickstarter, no one could have foreseen the studio reaching its goal in just two days. By the time the pledging period ended, inXile had $3,040,574 in its hand. The original goal being a relatively low $900,000, all the extra money meant inXile could add in even more features. Once inXile hit $2.1 million, it meant that the studio could afford to have Obsidian Entertainment help out. Once the $3 million was reached, inXile would be able to include mod tools.
