If you’re a PlayStation Plus member then you’ll be pleased to learn that from tomorrow you’ll be able to download an awesome game named Don’t Stave. Don’t Starve: Console Edition is survival game based in a wilderness environment. You play as a character named Wilson, a Scientist who has become trapped by a demon and sent to a magical wilderness world. Wilson must learn to explore, adapt and exploit his environment and its inhabitants. The aim of the game for the player is to eventually escape and find your way back home.
Since the very earliest home console video game systems were brought to market, it’s been the dream of manufacturers and consumers alike to tap into the possibilities which virtual reality might bring. Of course, we’ve had to wait a while for the graphics technology to catch up with our imaginations so that we actually have something to work with, but it would seem that truly immersive gaming is just around the corner. The top contender in this area is the Oculus Rift, a project which was largely started via Kickstarter but has since grown into something much larger and more…
With 2013 now in the rear view mirror and 2014 directly in front of us, we thought it only sensible to look back at some of Sony’s biggest hits and misses. For all intents and purposes, 2013 was a stellar year for Sony and their gaming operation. Most obviously, we saw the release of the marvelous and somewhat magnanimous PS4, replete with a number of highly exciting titles to delve into. However, everything wasn’t exactly smooth sailing either, but has that ever really been the case? As with any other year in the video game industry, there were setbacks, disappointments…
For whatever reason, it could be said that the essence of most video gaming boils down to placing some type of weapon in the hands of a hero so that they might exact violence and vengeance upon villains. In our current era, that tends to imply utilizing firearms within the context of fantastic environments, a genus which is often referred to as the “shooter” genre. While 2013 saw the PS4 receiving some really good action games utilizing FPS mechanics, it would appear that 2014 is really the year to expect great things. So, what qualifies as a “shooter” game, you…
This year is set to bring both excitement and shock announcements. While it’s most certainly always a good idea to focus on confirmed game releases and informational tidbits, it’s also sometimes fun to engage in speculation. Every year, certain rumors always seem to emerge surrounding certain specific game releases (on whatever console(s) happens to be in production at the time) and currently, the PS4 appears to be one of the main breeding grounds for gaming gossip. Perhaps this is due to the fact that we’ve yet to see any truly revolutionary titles released for it as of yet – you…
As we move in to 2014 it’s important that we reflect on all of last year’s video game news, after all, the best way to see where we’re going is to look at the trail behind us, right? Needless to say, the release of the PS4 is still weighing heavily on a lot of gamers’ minds, with many of them still waiting for some truly groundbreaking titles to be released for the new console. While there are some find games currently available for it, the fact remains that we’ve yet to see one or more “decidedly PlayStation 4” titles hit…

Awesome PS4 Games coming in 2014
As a new console, the PS4 has already proven itself to be a major force in the world of video gaming courtesy of its fantastic launch line-up. However, as 2014 draws closer an entirely new slew of wonderful titles are slated to hit store shelves, many of them being potential trend-setters. Additionally, some of these upcoming games will actually push the PS4 much harder than anything currently available for it. In other words, you can also expect some of these truly ground-breaking 2014 titles to perhaps even generate a significant industry buzz. Here are some of our top picks… Infamous:…
The concept of the open-world racing title is relatively new, with the Need for Speed franchise being one of the best examples thereof. As with some of the other entries (most notably NfS: Hot Pursuit) the basic dynamic featured here is one where racers are pitted against cops. It’s a formula that works well and offers up distinct advantages (as well as pitfalls) for players on either side of the struggle. Of course what makes the game interesting is its massive map (over 100 miles of roads), upgradeable gadgets, and career progression architecture. In the midst of all this, some…
Developer Fun Bits Interactive has crafted a fun, and dare I say, “oft-humorous” puzzle-based title that’s equally as grisly as it is entertaining. In essence, you play as, or control, two characters throughout – lil and laarg (one being slight, hence “little”, the other more portly, or “large”). The short version of the story is that you are essentially being held captive by some type of evil mastermind; in order to escape (as luck would have it) you must circumvent a series of puzzles, which comprise the various levels, or screens, of the game. Originally released on the Vita, this…
Super Motherload Review
Building upon some rather formulas which were well-explored with olden titles such as Metroid, Dig Dug, as well as many others, “Super Motherload” is both a forward-thinking and somewhat traditional 2D title. Don’t get the wrong idea though, this game is its own beast, as they say, and pretty much stands out as one of the more interesting lower tier PlayStation 4 titles. In essence, you are a miner on Mars, who was sent to the red planet to find valuable treasures and ores. Of course what makes the game work is its mechanics, which provide a uniquely deep level…

Battlefield 4 Review
Barring some of the problems suffering at launch, Battlefield 4 is a truly great FPS that somehow finds a way to pack an amazing amount of content into a one-time purchase. The concept of serialized game development isn’t really anything particularly new to the hardcore gaming crowd (as a concept) though, many other franchises have benefited from meticulously developing their formulas over lengthier stretches of time. For instance, they might seek to improve on signature gameplay elements, the engine, visuals, or all of the above. At any rate, EA Digital Illusions CE has certainly learned their lessons, which is clearly…
If you’ve previously played (or rather, experienced) Thatgamestudio’s popular title “Flower”, then you really owe it to yourself to give their title, “flOw” a spin. For those that are unaware, Flower was actually considered by its developers to be something of a “spiritual successor“ to this game, which is quite a notable distinction. The truth is, flOw is a game that provides players with yet another very open, more or less enigmatic experience to behold. The essence of the game is relatively simple – you assume the role of various forms of seemingly aquatic life, each of which consumes other…
First off, if you’ve never played an Angry Birds game before, you should start with this one. Utilizing themes / settings ripped straight out of the original star wars series (pretty much comprising Episode IV: A New Hope and Ep. V: The Empire Strikes Back), this unique mini-game-turned-fully-fledged-strategy title is infinitely enjoyable. In essence you assume control over a squadron of somewhat flightless fowls which you hurl into enemy fortifications via a large slingshot. In each stage the goal remains the same – to eliminate rival targets, of course. However, as you advance from the start to finish of each…

If you’re ready for some DLC for Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag, then you’ll be pleased to learn that today Ubisoft announced Freedom Cry, the first DLC for Assasin’s Creed IV Black Flag, would be available on December 18th via PSN for PS4 and PS3. See the Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag Freedom Cry screenshots.
Inspired 2D platformers which take advantage of stunning 3D backdrops seem to be rather popular these days, especially when they’re extremely dynamic. With “Trine 2: Complete Story” we have a game that’s at once fun and exhilarating as well as rooted in puzzle-solving mechanics. Developer Frozenbyte has probably had more success with their Trine series than any of their other projects to date, and this “Complete Story” edition of T2 is perhaps among their best offerings. This particular version includes all the extra content, including the Goblin Menace expansion as well as exclusive Dwarven Caverns level (included in the Director’s…
