The groundbreaking BioShock has been hailed as one of the best games of the previous generation by many critics and outlets, with its own spiritual sequel BioShock Infinite proving that Irrational Games' creative lead Ken Levine has a knack for compelling settings and themes. But the tale of an Objectivist utopia built on the bottom of the sea actually owes its existence to System Sho
What made it so great is how it was implemented; it was part of the story. Going to photo-ops for Thrasher and Skateboard Mag to be part of the publication's cover is similar to making those covers in Marvel’s Spider-Man , but a bit more deliberate since each location was specific. Skate.reel only improved with each iteration of the game, allowing you to not only create great photos, but also videos worthy of being in Toy Machine’s Welcome to He
assassin's creed shadows collectibles|https://creedshadowgame.com/ Creed has been all over the map lately between the quality of its games and the way the marketing team is choosing to present them to us. Unfortunately for the newest installment to the on-going and seemingly endless series, Ubisoft doesn’t make much of an effort to sell it.
Now that BioWare has turned their Dragon Age series into a cross-media franchise, it's hard for some to think that it owes its existence to a previous RPG series set within the Dungeons & Dragons universe. But it was the Baldur's Gate series upon which BioWare cut their teeth, with many of the innovations that made Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn a hit among hardcore RPG fans now considered trademarks of "a BioWare ga
As the holiday season looms closer, gamers everywhere prepare for the impending release of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One . There's a lot in store for current-generation systems before November hits, however, so let's jump in and take a l
To that point, a panel was held at Comic-Con 2013 to talk about what could soon become "the Golden Age of video game movies," as several projects with above average profiles are slated for the next few ye
Some games, like God of War , received its photo mode after release and it definitely didn’t disappoint. Sure, you can make some pretty intense photos, but you can also make it look like Kratos is telling really bad dad jokes while he’s boating with his son. It’s a good example of how something as serious as God of War can be turned into something comical just by letting a character smile. This feature can also be found in Shadow of the Tomb Raider and can produce similar results by letting Lara take selfies with alpa
To put it simply, O'Brien believes the best way to get a video game done is to get the film started at the publisher that owns the IP first, then try to shop it around to movie studios. That's what EA did with Need for Speed and it's what they are doing with Dead Spa
Marvel’s Spider-Man , No Man’s Sky , God of War : these three games have more in common than just their three-word titles. They have fantastic photo modes and they aren’t the only ones. 2018 has been possibly the best year for taking pictures in your favorite games: whether you’re trying to convey the heavy emotions of the moment, or taking a selfie with the benevolent Shirtless Spider-Man, you can now do that. This simple feature is so beloved, and it’s one that should be implemented in more games moving forw
Both these games don’t have the more powerful tools that some of the aforementioned games have, like God of War or Marvel's Spider-Man . There are no filters, borders, or depth of field options in the replay function. It is just raw gameplay, but they still look pretty decent. Just think what you can do with a decent photo mode in one of these games: you’ll be able to capture those game-winning goals from Neymar, or those big hits from Mack in all of their gl
October is shaping up to be a killer month for great video game titles! Ranters, what are you waiting to spend your time and money on? Let us know what you're excited to sink your teeth into in the comments section below! As for me, I'm ready to get the mega evolutions of my favorite classic starters in Pokémon X and
Despite a few successes peppered over the course of several decades, the general consensus is that video game movies are not only a risky proposition for studios, but most of them are lacking in quality. However, we might be in the midst of a changing of the guard, so to speak, as game developers take a more hands-on role in video game movie development (a la Marvel Comic
This is also true with Forza Horizon 4 , a game basically made to create beautiful pictures. It is no secret that racing games are amongst the best looking games out there, and the Forza series is probably the most beautiful of the bunch. Seeing your tire tracks in the wet mud or my Honda Civic Type R zooming through the autumn leaves is a sight to see…which is why I’ve spent hours with this photo mode in particular. Ranging from the natural beauty of England’s more secluded roadways to the lightened city streets, it isn’t hard to capture a great photo in any type of environm
