Diablo 3 review: Our final verdict on Blizzard’s anticipated dungeon crawler

A modern game with an old school feel…
Wandering around gloomy dungeons attacking endless waves of enemies should be the most tedious thing in the world, but in Diablo 3, it’s quite the opposite. Blizzard, with their years of MMO experience, know exactly how to appeal to the obsessive compulsive gamer. By constantly rewarding you with loot and sparkly gold pieces, and giving you a feeling of power over your enemies, the game digs its talons in and never let go.

‘Tekken: Rise of the Tournament’ coming from Ong-bak director Prachya Pinkaew

A prequel to 2010′s straight-to-video/Netflix Tekken film has been announced by Crystal Sky Pictures CEO Steven Paul during this week’s Cannes Film Festival in France. Tekken: Rise of the Tournament is set to be directed by Prachya Pinkaew of Ong-bak and Chocolate fame – a martial arts pedigree that bodes better for the franchise than Tekken director Dwight H. Little’s resume of slasher flicks and Free Willy sequels.

No actors have been signed to the project as of yet, but Crystal Sky will be aiming at finding thespians that look like Tekken’s characters, rather than attaching big-name stars. The production company will be aiming for a theatrical release in North America, although nothing has actually been decided in terms of distribution.

In addition to Tekken: Rise of the Tournament, Crystal Sky Pictures is in the post-production stages of a Baby Geniuses trilogy and is also set to begin production on Dracula: The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Can’t make this stuff up.

Darksiders 2: Dead man walking

… and running… and jumping…
In his grunting Scottish brogue, Karn chortles "You jump like a lass". Our broad-shouldered companion through our first hands-on dungeon playthrough highlights one of the distinctive characteristics of Darksiders II’s grim new protagonist (this time you take control of horseman Death).

The Elder Scrolls Online main story will be ’100 percent solo’

Image

The main story in The Elder Scrolls Online will be a solitary experience, game director Matt Firor revealed in a video interview with Game Informer.

« In the Elder Scrolls games you’re always the hero, whether you want to be or not, » Firor said. « You go out there and you kill the dragons. You kill Mehrunes Dagon in Oblivion. In Morrowind, you’re up there fighting the Tribunal – those are huge, global, epic things that you don’t want to stand in line to do in an MMO. The last thing you want to do is have the final confrontation with Mehrunes Dagon as he’s stomping across the Imperial City, and you see like 15 guys behind you waiting to kill him because they’re on the same quest.

« We have a whole part of the game that is 100 per cent solo, which is the main story, where the world focuses on you. You are the hero, everything you do is solo and the world reacts to you that way, » Firor said.

Previous details do include PvP matches of up to 200 players, but those are obviously separate from the main quest. The Elder Scrolls Online will be played in a third-person perspective and is attempting to be a « modern » MMO, blending The Elder Scrolls features into this new genre. Not all Elder Scrolls fans are happy with the new title’s angle, but Firor said that’s just fine.

« The worst situation for a game community to be in is where no one posts on the boards because they don’t care, » he said. « If they post on the boards, they care, even if they’re not being so polite about it. But that’s a fact of life: You’re an Internet game, you’re on the Internet, you have an Internet community. And the Internet community is always very vocal.

« So what you do is learn from it. You make sure you do the best job to deliver the best game that you can and they you go from there. »

Origin waives crowd-funded games’ distribution fees for 90 days

EA’s Origin is jumping on the Kickstarter bandwagon – no, not by Kickstarting an EA game (that would be hilarious) but instead, by presenting itself as an ally to crowd-funded games.

EA announced today that it will waive distribution fees for crowd-funded games for 90 days after launch. The offer is extended only to « fully-funded, complete and ready-to-publish games designed for digital download to PC platforms. » InXile’s Brian Fargo and Pinkerton Road’s Jane Jensen voiced their support in the press release.

« The public support for crowd-funding creative game ideas coming from small developers today is nothing short of phenomenal, » said Origin SVP David DeMartini in the announcement. « It’s also incredibly healthy for the gaming industry. Gamers around the world deserve a chance to play every great new game, and by waiving distribution fees on Origin we can help make that a reality for successfully crowd-funded developers. » EA also gets a nice patina of indirect indie cred by supporting Kickstarted games.
