Dark Souls 3 is Looking Good

August 4, 2015August 4, 2015 / Jeff Jones / Leave a comment

This trailer shows off the gameplay and the grand scale of things to come in the latest iteration of the hard as hell Souls series. Straight from the Bandai-Namco Youtube page:

“Dark Souls III continues to push the boundaries with the latest, ambitious chapter in critically-acclaimed and genre-defining series. As fires fade and only embers remain, journey once more into a world filled with more daunting and colossal enemies and environments. Players will be immersed into a world of epic atmosphere and darkness through faster gameplay and amplified combat intensity. New to the series are the Battle Arts attacks. You’ll be able to deliver powerful attacks that will break through enemy defenses. Each weapon will have its own unique Battle Arts.”

We can expect Dark Souls 3 early 2016. Check out the video below.

The game was shown off today at Gamescon and it looks awesome. Crackdown 3 takes place in a new crime ridden city and its biggest feature is the fully destructible environments.

Vega Returns in Street Fighter V

August 3, 2015August 3, 2015 / Jeff Jones / Leave a comment

“Let my beauty intoxicate you.”

The Spanish ninja makes his return to the series. Vega is one of the 8 original world warriors and seems deadlier than ever.

Vega looks to play differently, yet the same, this time around. The Flying Barcelona, his signature move, is still part of his move set, but he seems so much more stylish this time around. He is a matador and with his play style in SFV, Capcom seems to have really captured the elegance and grace of a matador with the spins Vega does during his combos. Just because he moves so smoothly, doesn’t mean the Spaniard isn’t just as deadly. He can be seen throwing a barrage of claw slashes during his deadly combos in the video below.

With the latest edition of Vega, that brings the current roster up to 9 characters. It’s to see you back Vega.

It’s finally here again gamers! It’s the weekend! Hopefully you are able to get some good playing time in.

I will be playing some Rocket League. This game is ridiculously fun and can be played for hours. I actually played until 3:30 last night with some friends. I kind of regret that right now. I will also be playing Heroes of the Storm as well as some Ultra Street Fighter, and checking out some of the new Smash Bro’s 4 updates. Some streaming will also be happening to be sure to follow my Twitch Channel to know when I go live.

That’s enough about me, what about you? What are you playing this weekend?

One of the best games of 2015 so far is getting even better. CD Projekt Red just announced on their Facebook page that The Witcher 3 will be getting a new game plus mode. This is perfect for people like myself that want to play it again at some point in the future. Just like all of the previously released DLC, it will be free. There is no word on when it will come out, because it is still in development, but it should be pretty soon.

This game just keeps getting better and better.

What Are ya Playin’ This Weekend.

July 24, 2015 / Jeff Jones / Leave a comment

It’s finally here again gamers! It’s the weekend! Hopefully you are able to get some good playing time in.

I will be playing plenty of Heroes of the Storm, as usual. It is my addiction now if you didn’t know already. It pretty much makes the list every weekend. I will hopefully be squeezing in some Ultra Street Fighter, Destiny, and Super Smash Bros WiiU too. Unfortunately the Street Fighter V beta didn’t launch so well, otherwise I would be playing that all weekend. I will also be doing some live streaming as well so be sure to tune in and hangout with me.

So that’s enough about me, what about you? What game(s) are you playing this weekend.
