Max Graphics: Max Payne 3′s “Visual Effects” Trailer
Posted on Mar 22, 2012 10:00:51 AM
The new Max Payne game has graphics in it. A lot. Our research suggest that it’s around 70% graphics, 20% noises, and 10% miscellaneous. For more information on Max Payne’s graphics, visual effects, and cinematics, I should direct you to the new trailer, below.

Sine Mora is diesel-punk shoot ‘em up co-developed by video game band Grasshopper Manufacture and old-timer Digital Reality. Mixing classic shooter sensibilities with next-gen presentation, Sine Mora is a shoot ‘em up that appeals to both hardcore and the casual gamers.
Ponder Pandas In This Mists Of Pandaria Footage
Posted on Mar 21, 2012 06:48:18 PM
I occasionally pop into WoW after years of not caring. It’s a world I’m happy to explore, but don’t really care for the mechanics. What’s clear when I return is that I enjoy the new content a lot more than the existing stuff. You can clearly see the level designers coming to terms with the notion of ‘fun’ in their world. The glimpses of Pandaria below really only show the world they’re building, but it does look pretty enough for me to dust off my WoW mage for a short holiday.
The Walking Dead Debut Trailer

The much anticipated debut trailer for The Walking Dead is finally here! The second season of The Walking Dead has just finished, but there’s more zombie action on the way in the game of the series…
Morning: Gorgeous Air Buccaneers HD Footage
Posted on Mar 21, 2012 01:00:41 PM
We do like a bit of balloon war, and few games do that as proficiently as the awesome Air Buccaneers HD. The game’s alpha version is now available on a but-and-try basis, and the work in progress has been documented in a recently video, which you can see below. It certainly looks fine. Mysteriously, devs Ludocraft promise something special for next week, but won’t say what it is. Hmm.
Wild Palms: Bioshock Infinite Footage Shows Handyman
Posted on Mar 20, 2012 01:00:35 PM
Levine describes this latest “heavy hitter” character as “sort of a tragic figure.” The video goes some way to explaining why: a heavily-scarred gentleman trapped in a giant, ape-like robotic suit, at the centre of which is what appears to be a heart in a glass case. Threatening, indeed, but you really wouldn’t want to share his fate. There’s a bit of footage, and even a few glimpses of concept art for what the handyman could have been in other, hideous incarnations.
Blades of Time

Gunswords, booty (of the gold and jewels kind!) and a cute outfit? All in a day’s work. Play as the gorgeous gunsword-wielding treasure hunter Ayumi as she carves a path of destruction through a mysterious and dangerous island in Blades of Time.
Cube World Dinosaur Takes A Promotional Beating
Posted on Mar 19, 2012 07:00:26 AM
Just a couple of years ago saying “the graphics are a bit blocky” was a way to put down a game, but now it seems it might just as likely be an indication of indie-success. It’s been almost a month since we last saw something from the cheerily blockular Cube World, but now it’s back with a “Monsters” trailer.
Look: Mechwarrior Online In Action
Posted on Mar 16, 2012 01:28:54 PM
So you’ve read about John’s encounter with Mechwarrior Online, but how about seeing it in action? Head below for a battle in a riverbed. An interesting contrast with Hawken, I would say. This really is the year of the Mech. And lasers!
