Posted on: 19 Jul 2019

Lauren Hissrich, showrunner of the forthcoming The Witcher show on Netflix, has recently talked to Entertainment Weekly. Hissrich says they only use material from the books which I highly doubt as Geralt and Roach both look like their video-game versions.

Alvin Liu, UI coordinator of Cyberpunk 2077, has spoken to wccftech about their upcoming role playing game. First of all some bad news; no Lady Gaga folks. I hope Liu is toying with us, even if it sounds definite. I would love to see Lady Gaga and Keanu Reeves together in the game.

It’s been almost two years since the second Total War: Warhammer released and Creative Assembly is still releasing free content for it. The last three DLCs are a Legendary Lord, an Old World update and “Some Old Friends”, which probably means more characters from the tabletop games.

I know, I know, where the hell is the second sword right? Well maybe Geralt of Rivia sold it for a chicken sandwich and some apple juice. Joking aside Roach, our favorite and faithful girl, looks good. Actually she looks very similar to her digital sister, which is awesome, meaning the TV show draws both … Continue reading Netflix’s The Witcher first look at the lovely Roach →

GhostWire: Tokyo first in-game look

Posted on: 16 Jul 2019

GhostWire: Tokyo is an “action-adventure game in which you’ll fight paranormal enemies and rid the city of supernatural evil”, as Shinji Mikami described. I am a big fan of Mikami’s work, even if The Evil Within games did not exactly hit the spot, at least for me.

It was scheduled for a 2018 release but … Continue reading Moons of Madness: 12 minutes of gameplay →

New Cyberpunk 2077 details about player aggressiveness, garages, radio stations & branching stories

Posted on: 13 Jul 2019

Just a few days ago, a reddit user, asked CD Project Red about the limitations of acting violently towards NPCs (non-player characters) within Night City. CDPR responded by saying pretty much what we already have seen in games like Skyrim. You can basically attack almost anyone, except key characters tied to the story and of … Continue reading New Cyberpunk 2077 details about player aggressiveness, garages, radio stations & branching stories →
