Magus #5 – Review

One of the strongest things about Magus is that it’s not forced to start with its main characters, but instead it starts with either a look at the world or a flashback to give the reader a richer, fuller view of the story. This issue is no exception as it starts with a look at Garrett Hick’s past and a time when he developed magic powers of his own. His family life had become completely messed up as his mother too, had powers and used them for everything including lobotomizing her husband. It’s a great window in the world of a man trying to take over the world.

Capcom’s Epic Fantasy: Dragons Dogma

Dragons
Dogma is a brand new title set to be released by Capcom. This third
person fantasy action RPG boasts some impressive visuals. It also comes
from the team that produced Devil May Cry 4 as well as Resident Evil 4, so
it is set to be a competent action game at the very least. Capcom
claims Dragons Dogma will take place in an extremely vibrant and large
open world. Through this world the player will be accompanied by a
party of three. The party will fight independently of the player and
will learn and adapt their own abilities based and what strategies
the player decides to implement. With gameplay that looks solid and
encounters suitably epic to the fantasy genre , Dragons Dogma seems
to be one to look forward to.

Devil May Cry E3 Trailer

Capcom
has shown off a new trailer for their upcoming reboot of character
action franchise Devil May Cry. As expected, the complete overhaul of
the main character, Dante, is still in the cards. Gone is the gothic/punk inspired hero of twelve years ago and he has been
replaced with a more modern and fresh interpretation of his
predecessor. The trailer seems to carry a new tone for the franchise.
There are no cheesy lines, in fact Dante has nothing to say at all,
which is not at all typical for the series. The over the top action
associated with the series maintains and it appears as though Capcom
has tried to push it even further, perhaps because of the high
standard that have been set by Bayonetta. Overall, it seems as per
usual for the Devil May Cry series, which is somewhat disappointing
given they had a real chance to mix things up with this reboot.

More Details on Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary

This clears
up a lot of the questions I’ve had about this game. What 343 have done is
essentially made the Reach engine run over the top of the old game. This means
that the gameplay is identical to that of the original Halo, so the pistol is
finally back after 10 years. I was pretty much sold when I saw the assault
rifle packs 60 rounds again, co-op play over Xbox live is also confirmed. There
isn’t anything concrete regarding the multiplayer apart from what was mentioned
about the gameplay. However, it certainly looks a lot more like Reach than it
does the original Halo.

Need For Speed The Run

Definitely winning our “Did Not See THAT Coming Award”, the new Need For Speed game will have you running around with bipedal foot travel…  Without a car!  “Running” is the industry term for this sort of gameplay, and that’s not all, there’ll also be jumping, climbing and hand-to-hand combat.  All in what used to be a driving game!

Arma III Debut Trailer

An early contender for Least Informative Video Of E3, the Arma III debut trailer provides almost no information about the game at all.  A mere 47 seconds long, viewers are treated to little more than a logo, and social media links.

Mass Effect 3 Kinect Gameplay E3 Stage Demo

I’ve
never
been able to get into the Mass Effect series, but I can imagine that the
Kinect voice control option is still good news. The implementation of
the
voice control seems like a logical step in order to make the game more
immersive, as playing through dialogue tree sections (something which I
think is
extremely outdated) by actually talking is better (and more “real”) than
just pressing a button.
Using it to command your squad is also a great feature, as manual
controls
rarely do it seamlessly.

Fable E3 Stage Demo Shows Kinect Implementation

I always feel bad for the people that have to demo Kinect
games, I mean you must feel like a bit of an idiot up there. Skip to the two
minute mark if you don’t want to sit through the trailer again and you’ll see
the full thing being operated with Kinect. The result is well, different to say
the least; while it doesn’t look bad what’s being shown just doesn’t seem like
a real Fable game. It’s hard to imagine how exploration will be handled with
this type of game, a core element of any RPG.

Dance Central 2 E3 Stage Demo

Alright, so another Dance Central game is coming out? I think it’s safe to say everyone saw this coming. There was always going to be a sequel to a title as successful as the original Dance Central. The demo shows two people playing, or dancing simultaneously for around a minute. There appears to be a section where one player can exit and the other can do some kind of solo sequence. Confirmed new additions are that of voice control and a campaign mode. All songs from the original Dance Central will be able to be imported straight away which is a great way to bump up the content numbers and something expected by now from the creators of Rockband
