Polygon - Tom Clancy's Bonestorm 2014, and why video game titles need to grow up. Thanks nin.
But compelling games are sometimes saddled with adolescent titles in a bid for mainstream appeal. The title Red Dead Redemption, for instance, suggests a lethal quest for vengeance when the game itself functions as a tragic rumination on the hollowness of revenge.
There’s a recent trend, too, of video game developers "ironically" deploying adolescent titles like Bulletstorm or Broforce. While these titles can be cute, there’s only a hair-splitting difference between the actual adolescent game and the "ironic" adolescent game. Even the most discerning of video game outsiders would react to a title like Bulletstorm in the same way that Marge Simpson reacts to Bonestorm.
#CODGhosts #Invasion is coming to PSN/PC July 3! Ready up with 2XP this weekend, live for all platforms on Friday.
Shovel Knight is a sweeping classic action adventure game with awesome gameplay, memorable characters, and an 8-bit retro aesthetic created by Yacht Club Games. You play as the eponymous Shovel Knight, a small knight with a huge quest. Shovel Knight has come to this valley with two goals: to defeat the evil Enchantress and save his lost beloved. He wields a ShovelBlade; a multipurpose weapon whose techniques have now been lost to the ages. Always honest and helpful, Shovel Knight is a shining example of the code of Shovelry: Slash Mercilessly and Dig Tirelessly!
However, between Shovel Knight and his beloved stands a cadre of villainous knights. These terrible foes, known as The Order of No Quarter, have been dispatched to prevent Shovel Knight from reaching the Enchantress at any cost!
Goat Simulator developer Coffee Stain Studios announces that Goat Simulator is now available for Mac and Linux.
Everyone who already owns the game on PC will be able to play it on Mac and Linux too, while people who don’t can buy it at a discounted price on Lord Protector Gaben’s annual Steam Summer Sales.
A port for the Nokia N-Gage is also being worked on, but there is no ETA yet.
This will be the last early access update before release, and we wanted to thank everybody who supported us via Early Access. You helped make Divinity:Original Sin into the game it is now & we hope you'll have tons of fun with this monday. Your words of encouragement, your criticism and your feedback have been incredibly motivating, and we feel honoured to have been able to develop this game together with you.
You will notice that the mod section in the main menu is now active & you can fool around with a small mod called Cow Simulator. Right now it doesn't do a lot but we'll be using it as a tutorial so expect it to be expanded.
With the shutting of Gamespy servers, we have been migrating our players over to Steam.
However if you purchased box versions of the game and do not own the game on Steam, you do not need to re-purchase the games. We are supplying owners of boxed copies with free steam keys so you can continue to enjoy the DoW franchise without paying again.
You can request your steam keys by filing a ticket through the following page:
https://help.sega.com/anonymous_requests/new
Please note that Sega will need to verify your boxed copies, this may involve them requesting photos of your box or other information. Due to the volume of requests it may also take a few days for them to reply - we apologize this and thank the community for it's patience.
We did not want to see DoW end with the closure of the Gamespy servers, and are happy to see that our players are still quite passionate!
