Finn "Tiy" Brice is eager to point out his next big project, Starbound, is not a sequel to the million-selling indie hit Terraria -- a game for which he crafted the Super Nintendo-style pixel art. That likely won't stop players from drawing some obvious comparisons between the two, but as the head of new collaborative studio Chucklefish Games, Brice is pushing upwards and onwards to take his new sci-fi-tinged 2D sandbox RPG in a very different direction.

You wanted it, I wanted it -- damn near every Skyrim player wanted mounted combat. (Except for you, snarky contrarian man. You never want anything cool.) Well, it's finally here, courtesy of the Skyrim 1.6 Update beta, and I've just returned from the frozen North to give you my first quick impressions. Give me a minute though, I'm still feeling a little woozy. Read More »
According to a developing story on The Verge, 38 Studios has just laid off their entire staff, which most likely leaves their in-development MMORPG, Project Copernicus -- which was just shown off for the first time last week -- all but dead. Read More »
I'll give my trusty Skyrim steed credit: that pony isn't afraid to kick a dragon in the teeth. Other than its comical bodyguard tendencies, though, my horse is nothing more than a four-legged version of boots of speed. That changes today with the Skyrim 1.6 Update, which introduces one of the most requested TES V features: mounted combat. Read More »
Vampires. So hot right now. Unfortunately for them, though, they seem to have lost a bit of their terrifying reputation in favor of a more romantic, sexy veneer. DARK is looking to reverse that particular image and make the blood suckers scary again. Stealth is a key element to any vampire's repertoire, and this DARK trailer doesn't disappoint in that aspect.

Many of you won't finish reading this. Many of you will have closed the browser, opened up Steam, and started downloading Civilization V. Why? Because you can play it for exactly no money this weekend. In celebration of the upcoming expansion pack Civilization V: Gods & Kings, Civ V and all its DLC are 75% off. A few thousand one-more-turn's later, we'll all emerge from our homes, blinking at the bright sun and wondering what year it is. Read More »
I hate to be cliche, but they do say that the best defense is a good offense. Yup, that's a thing somebody says from time to time. I bet you've even said it. For those of you that believe such a thing, Dungeon Defenders is adding the Summoner hero class. The magical being plays quite differently than the other available characters, as he's able to step back from the battlefield to summon and control his own monsters, RTS style, to go toe-to-toe with the oncoming hordes.

Just when you thought you'd spent enough time fighting the Reapers, Mass Effect 3 drags you right back in with some free DLC. Releasing May 29, the pack tacks on two new maps, six new characters, a slew of new weapons, a new mission objective, and a new gear slot. We spotted it last week, but now we can confirm its existence and release date. Will we ever escape the claws of the devilishly addicting mode? Read More »
The Diablo 3 Monk can Crippling Wave his way through a host of demonic spawn like a Ginsu knife through a can, but he can't defeat the all-powerful Blizzard Nerf. This morning Blizzard revealed the hotfixes it has made to Diablo 3 since launch, simultaneously announcing that the Real-Money Auction House has been delayed indefinitely. Read More »
Anyone speak Russian? I did get this much, "Arma-ged-don! Arma-ged-don!" Pretty sure that's universal for, "We're all screwed!" The live-action Metro: Last Light short is now live, and it does a bang up job of setting the stage, no matter what language it's in. From the outset of the nuclear war to the 20-years-later aftermath, the world of Metro: Last Light is introduced. See it within. Read More »
Sure, donning the gold shirt and taking the helm as the Captain of your own Starship is a nerd rush, but how would you like to build, personalize, and command an entire Starbase? That's the big feature that's on tap in Star Trek: Online's next update, Season Six: Under Siege. Read More »
Last night at a small gathering at the Double Fine offices, Ron Gilbert took the wrapping off a small project he's been working on. No, this isn't that project. This game is called The Cave, a downloadable game that's set to be released in early 2013. Upon first glance it looks like it draws some tremendous inspiration from Trine. But once you start to look a little deeper into The Cave, you see flashes of Gilbertisms (that's a word, honest) in the characters and a touch of old school adventure gaming mechanics that help to drive the puzzle solutions.

How appropriate: a game about airship combat that pushes a number of my nerd buttons somehow managed to fly completely under my radar. Until last week, that is, when I watched clips from the Guns of Icarus Online beta and wondered where the unique class- and team-based zeppelin skirmisher has been all my gaming life. Read More »
Last week Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion entered its final round of beta, introduced the Vasari as a playable race, and gave gamers another early look at the development of this promising 4x space-strategy game. As Rebellion gears up for a retail release in just a few weeks, we talked with Producer Chris Bray about the challenges of Rebellion's development, and how much the community has helped define what makes a Sins of a Solar Empire game.

Just how insane is Vaas, the main antagonist in Far Cry 3? Apparently, he's crazy enough to create a bobblehead with his own face on it. Wait, that's not really that insane. That's kinda just really arrogant. Well, how about showing off that bobblehead to someone he's just captured, complete with voice acting, just before blowing that person's head off? Yeah, that's reasonably crazy. The trailer for the Insane Edition of Far Cry 3 shows off just that. Read More »
And the fallout from this problem is corrupting game design itself.
