Anyone who's seen a Mad Max movie will easily be able to spot the direct influence of those films in Borderlands , Gearbox Software's colorful, cel shaded open world role-playing shooter. The alien planet of Pandora is a dangerous wasteland and pretty much everyone who lives there is insane, but that's all part of its charm. The plot of the games follows groups of fortune seekers who are trying to track down mysterious Vaults full of immensely powerful alien technology, and we'd love to see a filmmaker tackle both the offbeat humor and the treasure-hunting quest at the heart of the Borderlands ser

Besides the games Nintendo has already announced for E3, fans should be able to expect some surprise game announcements, in addition to new looks at previously revealed Switch titles like Yoshi and maybe even Metroid Prime

It's not every year that Square Enix has an E3 press conference, so fans are expecting some big news from its presentation on June 11. We only know of two games that will definitely be shown by Square Enix, those being Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Kingdom Hearts 3 , with the latter expected to finally get a release date announcement after having originally been announced at E3 five years

It seems that steeds or mounts are somewhat of a given in the realm of role-playing fantasies, but as was the case with most of the Final Fantasy series, the developers decided to put a twist on the usual anim

One wouldn't think that a video game series shaped around a silent hero and theoretical physics to be best known for its characters , but as is usually the case, when Valve gets around to making a game they tend to make history as well. Such is the case with 'D

Tetris was already great on its own-- just look at last year's Tetris Effect --and splicing battle royale mechanics in there only embellished the whole multiplayer experience. As the game has received some single-player and local multiplayer modes since launch, Arika and Nintendo's game has cemented itself as one of the best Tetris titles of all time. It's becoming a mobile game too . That's always a good sign, ri

This is of course just a small taste of what we could potentially see from Microsoft at this year’s press conference. There are a few other third-party titles, like Metal Gear Solid Rising , that might make an appearance, but given Kojima’s no-show at the event it seems unlik

While many gamers have the press conferences for both Sony and Nintendo pretty well figured out, the big question mark in the room is the Microsoft conference. There are a few titles that most expect to see from the company, but there is a lot of mystery in the air, and a hope that some really huge surprises are lying in w

Super Mario 64 is a game full of bright colors and family-friendly platforming action, which makes the inclusion of the Big Boo's Haunt level rather jarring. Set in a haunted mansion, the level creates a creepy atmosphere with its dark, depressing visuals and the unsettling cackling of ghosts from off-scr

Stealth game Thief: The Dark Project takes a turn for the weird in the game's seventh mission, The Haunted Cathedral. In this mission, Garrett visits an area called the Sealed Section, which has been cut off from the rest of the city due to a violent zombie outbreak. Sure enough, players encounter zombies and other supernatural entities when making their way through this particularly spooky mission, which helps it stand out as one of the most memorable and scariest in the entire g

Since then, Yoshi's re-designs have made him far too human a character for the term 'pet' to apply, but that's how started his life. And that origin alone makes him one of the greatest game pets ever concei

With prosthetic limbs becoming ever more advanced, the world of cyberpunk shooter series Deus Ex is starting to seem like a realistic vision of the future. As human beings start to use technology to evolve their own biology, the player is faced with some hard choices regarding what the future of the human race should look like, and how it should be governed. The original Deus Ex is still the pinnacle of the series, but Deus Ex: Human Revolution was the title that really demonstrated just how great a movie adaptation could l

2019 has been a very odd year for games. While we didn't have any heavy hitters like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, God of War , or Red Dead Redemption 2, everyone had their niche catered to, so I think DualShockers ' personal GOTY lists will be quite varied this year. I have rounded up the 10 Adventure games strategy that stood out to me the most in 2019, and they are all quite different from each ot

While Sony's focus will be on those four titles, the company is also expected to highlight some other games, with Dreams from Media Molecule confirmed for the show. It's likely that Sony has some surprises up its sleeve as well, so PlayStation enthusiasts should be sure to tune
