Preview: King’s Bounty: Legions

King’s Bounty: Legions, like many social networking games, has by and large had little relevant exposure to the “hardcore” gaming community. It should come as no surprise that many of us who have grown up alongside the videogame industry can be quick to write off theFarmVillesandMafia Warsof the social gaming scene as shallow or lacking in gameplay. After all, having watched the games industry fleetingly grow and develop it self through the years from such humble beginnings asCastle Wolfenstein and the entireHarvest Moonseries to what it is today on Facebook, it’s no wonder thatFarmVilleand friends, to some, may seem like a giant step backwards....

Rumor: Kameo 2 sh*tcanned by Microsoft

Project Natal has claimed its first victim, with the followup to Rare’s 2005 adventure gameKameothrown on the scrapheapto make way for projects involving Microsoft’s magical waggle monster. According to rumors,Kameo 2was just one of several “traditional” projects quietly murdered in the name of Natal.

Saints Row IV’s tentacle bat got built in real life

Tenta-cool! Sure, theSaints Row: The Thirddildo batwas cool. However, today is the day of the tentacle.Saints Row IV, in its self-one-upmanship, needed to raise the ante and thus the tentacle bat was born.
