Summer sales have begun over on the PlayStation Store, and Sony is dropping as much as 70 percent off a huge selection of games for the PS3, PS4, and PS Vita. Let's check out the list below for week 1.
Troy Baker is everywhere these days. He's a talented voice actor with earned popularity. When he went into the audition for Far Cry 4's villain Pagan Min, he said at a recent convention, he was told to take the character wherever he wanted. Except, no Joker. The script he was provided, as a result, went away pretty quickly. An assistant walked into the room during the audition and...
Ubisoft made a lot of money last year. Considering the brutal fall it had, that might be surprising, but it’s true. Digital distribution made a more significant portion than ever before, too, enough so that Ubisoft called it a ‘main driver of growth’ for the company in a financial call this week. Digital distribution made $430 million for the publisher – nearly 100 percent growth over...
Well, it looks like I’m going to dust off my digital copy of Civilization V this week in order to enjoy a new mod. Pagan Min and Far Cry 4‘s world of Kyrat have been added to the game by two modders, going by Vice Virtuoso and Kramer on Steam. It appears you will need the Brave New World DLC for Civilization V in place in order to make use of this mod, but here’s what it includes...
I don’t consider myself a serious or hardcore gamer by any means. I think the last game I was truly addicted to was Ultima Online. I couldn’t stop playing that game, and I still wish there were more MMORPGs with more lawlessness in them. That should give you a good taste of how long it’s been since I’ve really been consumed by a great game, and I recently fell in love with Far Cry 4....
Concept Artist Donglu Yu’s work has applied to a few Ubisoft games. She’s worked on the likes of both Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry. This week, she was given permission to release some of the concept art she created in the lead up to Far Cry 4. Sure, graphically Far Cry 4 is a great looking game. For my money, though, it’s the explosive use of color that pushes it from good looking to...
As I walk away from Far Cry 4, I can safely say that it’s one of only a handful of games from the last year that I truly felt earned all of the time I dedicated to it.
If you've been following Far Cry 4 closely since launch, then you probably already know about the alternate ending that players can unlock at the very beginning of the game. It's a cool little easter egg that serves as a nod to player agency, and it was received really well. Creative Director Alex Hutchinson has since revealed that there's yet another alternate ending that no one has...
Well, this is a fun way to punish video game pirates. No, not the dude who sails the Jackdaw, actual people who pirate video games. If you have a copy of Far Cry 4 on the PC and you're missing an FOV slider, that's not a bug or a feature drop. It's missing for a reason. Creative Director Alex Hutchinson tweeted this gem out a day or so ago to oust pirated copies. PC players! If you're...
Far Cry 4 is officially launching today for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC platforms, and Ubisoft is already selling you more content for the massive game. The Season Pass officially has a full trailer. Better now than a few months ago, I suppose. The Season pass will cost gamers $29.99, and it includes four pieces of DLC and a few extras. The whole thing...
