| Landmark: My Wife and the Unlikely Hero of Landmark Posted: 26 Aug 2014 05:59 PM PDT My wife loves to game, but she doesn't like MMORPGs, as a rule. So finding an MMORPG that we can play together has always been a frustrating process. Me, I'll play anything. An entire generation of milquetoast WoW-rehashes and Korean grindfests imported via Google Translate have lowered my expectations to basically rock bottom. My wife, however, has standards.

| Gauntlet: Release Revised to September 23rd Posted: 26 Aug 2014 05:53 PM PDT Citing the need to fine tune Gauntlet for multiplayer goodness, Warner Bros. Interactive has announced that its reimagined Gauntlet will be arriving on September 23rd.   |
| General: The Soapbox: Calling Out UbiSoft Posted: 27 Aug 2014 11:12 AM PDT Ubisoft Blue Byte recently posted an article where business analyst Teut Weidemann criticized the globally recognized MOBA League of Legends and their parent company, Riot Games, for not focusing on their profits.

| General: Why Dragon Age: Inquisition Co-Op Will Be Awesome Posted: 27 Aug 2014 01:39 AM PDT I'm more confident at this point that Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer will be awesome than I am about the single player game. Inquisition seems to hit the right notes in terms of enhancing the series' combat without overdoing it and stripping things away like Dragon Age II did, and this bodes well for a multiplayer component that focuses squarely on the game's combat systems.   |
| General: Escape Dead Island to Release on November 18th Posted: 27 Aug 2014 10:22 AM PDT Escape Dead Island is ready to take off running on November 18th, according to a press announcement. Escape Dead Island is a survival mystery spin off based on the Dead Island series.   |
| Pillars of Eternity: The Infinity Engine’s Back Posted: 25 Aug 2014 05:20 PM PDT Pillars of Eternity's crowdfunded development by Obsidian shows just how much people love their 90s RPGs. The Infinity Engine was the base of classics RPGs like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale, and with Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian hopes to recapture the make of that golden era. But is there such a thing as going too old school with your design? Read on for our preview.   |
