Granted, I don't have a trained eye for frame rate drops, but the only time it's been super noticeable for me on the WiiU has been when shit explodes—igniting red barrels, maybe a little when weapons break, but that's about it.

I'm still super early in the game, but damn this is good. Bethesda needs to look at how well BotW spaced out its trials when they're placing dungeons in the next Elder Scrolls game, and literally every other open-world game maker needs to look at how this game doesn't feel like a mindless...

Damn that was a good movie. You don't generally expect superhero movies to go with "somber" as their dominant tone, but they really pulled it off. So, even though Jackman's officially done with Wolverine, what do you think are the odds that we'll be seeing a sequel with Laura and the...

First game was a trifle barebones, but still really fun; looking forward to this one. So in the first game, pretty much all your superpowers came from being bound to the wraith. Since it looks like this game basically opens with you losing the wraith, but gaining a ring, does that mean that...

Yep, bumping again for a new faction. This time, Bretonnia is being added for free on the 28th. It sounds like this may be the last of the main factions added to Game 1, which probably means that an announcement for Game 2 isn't too far off now; I'm guessing E3 at the latest.

Not a massive surprise, I guess. The original WoD always had those Causes packed into their games (Werewolf's militant environmentalism, for instance), and the guy heading up the new White Wolf comes across as really fixated on that. Chances are the games are going to end up fairly heavy on the...

In DA:I? Yeah, Krem himself never bothered me, but having Bull constantly jump down your throat during the "so what's your story?" conversation with Krem got annoying really quickly.

Looks good for something this early, although the in-combat movement is way too floaty; they need to tone that down a bit. It was nice seeing a mage using spells for things other than combat; it'd be interesting to see some other classes run through there, see how they use their movesets for...

That was definitely weird as hell, but liked it. Granted, I know jack shit about the character Legion from the comics, so I can't speak to how good it is as an adaptation, but taken on its own, it's definitely looking good. And surprisingly decent CG on the powers displayed so far.

At this point, if the Pats don't get a touchdown on the return, I'll honestly be a little shocked.

Falcons just snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Is he going to play one of those weird racist crows?

So according to Eurogamer, in addition to the Avengers, Eidos Montreal is also going to be working on a Guardians of the Galaxy game. Take that with however much salt you feel prudent. Link

Gameplay looks good, but I hope for their sake that they simply haven't finished the facial animations yet. That's not looking good for a triple-A release.

Really, Sanderson would pretty much have me permanently on board based solely on the magic systems he comes up with (I'm a sucker for a good magic system); the fact that he's also a legitimately good writer is just icing on the cake.

It's way too early to get excited, but Ashes of Creation at least looks interesting. Enough so to be worth keeping an eye on, I think.

Here's Obsidian's crowdfunding trailer.

A Crystal Dynamics Avengers game? I can get behind that. Kinda weird that they didn't wait until E3 to announce it.

I'm more familiar with the New WoD/Chronicles of Darkness (they changed the name when Paradox bought the IP) version of Mage than I am Ascension, but while it also has the freeform spellcasting style, they also include a fairly comprehensive list of spells in the rulebook. Even if a hypothetical...

Really, unless you feel like you absolutely *have* to play Zelda on the Switch, there really doesn't seem to be any reason to bother picking one up until Christmas at the earliest.

Ok, so summing up: Zelda looks awesome Mario looks good Xenoblade isn't really my jam, but still looks decent Too many people on stage with no actual game footage. And nothing else remotely worth caring about.

And Zelda remains something that could sell me on a Switch...if I couldn't just get it on my nearly useless WiiU.

It says something about a presentation when the EA Sports portion doesn't feel like any particular low point...

He trying to announce No More Heroes 3, it seems.

They brought out Sega guy to say "Switch looks cool. 'Kay, bye". Thank God they made time in the presentation.

Fire Emblem Dynasty Warriors? Good combo.

Well, Nintendo just showed a game I'd want to play that isn't Smash or Zelda, so they've now surpassed the Wii U.

Mario Sonic Adventure? Ok, this actually looks decent.

Ok, that's just a prop. I was legitimately worried that they were actual peripherals

Well, at least this is kinda-sorta an actual game. Progress.

I was hoping we were past motion sense shit.

Oh good, they're doing a skit...

So is there actual hardware in the controller-holder-thing, or is it just a plastic shell?

They just pitched the fucking handle as having been a core feature of the GameCube. This is great.

And no region locking. That took long enough.

I'm more inclined to say that, if they wanted to go innovative, then they should've either aimed for a voxel-based MMO, or a Storybricks-based MMO, and simply not tried to do both at the same time. Trying to essentially invent both kinds of MMOs, and make both systems work together, was going to...

I've read theories that syphilis was native to the Americas and got brought back to Europe by the first explorers. So yeah, it's no smallpox, but things did go both ways.

Christ, now I can't unsee it. Megatron's just emerging out of his hips.

I'm skeptical about the combat system—I'll need to actually get my hands on it to come to a proper conclusion—but everything else about the game's looking pretty awesome.

There is a narrative end to the game in the Everfall. In fact, you could make the argument that, story-wise, almost everything that happens prior to the dragon showing up for the final battle is filler; the actual story starts at that point.
