#Souls
This is one obvious labor of love, or possibly insanity.
I'm a big fan of a lot of the stuff gamers post to YouTube, especially when they post something that they've created on their own. I've spent hours checking out covers of mega man music, humorous game commentary, and people breaking games for fun. I've even thrown my own hat into the ring recently with my own video, but never in a million years did I see this coming
We're getting a lot of interesting new games this year...
Welcome to the next part of PixlBit’s sneak preview for the hottest and most surprising games coming in 2013! Last time, we told you about some of the big guns for the upcoming year, but what about those unknown quantities? There are quite a few brand-new, never before seen games on the horizon, and that’s always exciting. So without further ado, we present the new kids on the block.
Five games/series that reflect the heritage and influences of Dishonored
Dishonored is not a completely original work unto itself, but neither is it the latest numbered sequel in an epic franchise. It is an original IP, but it is not without lineage and influence. In a rare show of transparency, its creators, most notably Harvey Smith and Raphael Colontonio, have been extremely up front in citing their resources. From former projects to hot IPs, they’ve mentioned at least half a dozen games that they say have a lot in common with their upcoming release Dishonored, and we’ve found a few more that we think capture essential pieces of what makes Arkane Studios' upcoming release so interesting.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then Beyond: Two Souls is worth a million.
Going by the old proverb ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’, Quantic Dream’s newest title Beyond: Two Souls must be worth a million. After showcasing their impressive “Kara tech demo” back at GDC, it was obvious that Quantic’s next title would be a visual splendor and this game does not disappoint. Using the same sophisticated capture technology as James Cameron’s Avatar, Beyond: Two Souls is able to depict the uncanny life like mannerisms of its actors, which is welcomed considering award winning actress Ellen Page will be playing the lead.
And there was much rejoicing.
Just when we thought we couldn’t get any more deader, Atlus comes out with an announcement that will have Demon’s Souls fans rejoicing. The publisher, who had previously stated that the game’s servers would be going offline at the end of the month has pulled a 180 and declared that North American server support will instead “continue to operate for the foreseeable future.”
