Magneto to be Second Playable Villain

Magneto being the owner of arguably, some of the coolest superpowers ever, it's no surprise MH 2015 is adding him to its villainous roster. As the game's 41st playable character, he'll add not only his ahem...magnetism, but the voice of James Arnold Taylor, known for portraying Ratchet, of Ratchet and Clank fame, and Tidus from Final Fantasy X.

Should Games Make Political Statements?

Gamergate has invaded the public consciousness. What was once a simple conversation about ethics in gaming journalism has spiraled into an all-out shouting match with anything progressive firmly falling in the movement's sights and any critics being quickly labeled as bigots. As I've played through Dragon Age: Inquisition, encountering characters of every stripe and sexuality, my mind kept returning to these themes. Did Bioware include this character or that for a reason?

Issue 10 Nightmare in the Dream Palace Preview

The Secret World issue 10: Nightmare in the Dream Palace is live, and we recently had the chance to run around the other side of Tokyo in a look at the brand new content. When we last left issue 9, there had been a huge explosion that conveniently reduced the quarantine wall that had been blocking off one side of Tokyo from the other, to more of an inconvenience than an obstacle. Issue 9 worked to lay down the foundations of new systems and new strategies, specifically having to do with Aegis.

Three Things Destiny Can Do To Improve

In a column last month, I took a look at the potential for good gameplay to trump other outdated systems and keep us hooked on otherwise mediocre games. The example I used was Destiny, which has a solid core shooter experience but is relatively uninteresting in the story, content, and loot departments. I've been playing more of Bungie's pseudo-MMOFPS, and suffice it to say that even its fun twitch gameplay is starting to wear thin.

World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor - Bringing Back the Glory Days

Warlords of Draenor - Bringing Back the Glory Days

Right from the get-go, it needs to be said that Warlords of Draenor is a fantastic expansion. It has hit many of the right notes in all the right ways beginning with the stat and skill pruning that has been much discussed over the last year or so. Players have fewer skills, but better ones overall. Traveling through the world on the way to 100, fighting in both normal and heroic dungeons, anywhere in Draenor requires thought.
