The Great Battle Of Skyrim

Just how epic can Skyrim be? Well, if you’re fan Tyrannicon, the answer to that is pretty freaking grand.

Ty’s video features 500 Draugr, 200 Skeletons, 500 Dwarven Warriors and a Dragon going into a battle that seems to bring to mind battles like those found in Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers. Check it out.

A Look At The Glorious Artworks From “The Last Of Us”

GamingBolt has put up released beautiful artwork of The Last of Us up on their website. The artworks depict the broken environments of the post-apocalyptic world in which the game will take in. The lives of Ellie and Joel are also showcased through them.

I really, really love the one with both of them having a laugh around the campfire because you can tell that this probably won’t happen much during the game itself. It’s also rather rare that artworks depicting some sort of a relaxed and light moment are available or shown in a post-apocalyptic survival game. Hopefully this scene will make itself into the game and leave a lasting impression on gamers.

I kinda wanna play this.

Travel Through Time In “Final Fantasy XIII-2”

populationgo:

According to Final Fantasy XIII-2 director Motomu Toriyama, you can travel through time to redo choices and potentially fix mistakes made in the past.

Does this mean you can redo some of your own personal gaming mistakes from Final Fantasy XIII or only redo mistakes made in the game’s seemingly linear history?

Could I travel through time to redo this entire game?

Premiere Trailer for “Modern Warfare 3” Multiplayer Goes Boom

The highest selling and most famous shooter franchise in the world has brought the first trailer for the multiplayer that sells most of its copies. With that being said, Michael Bay should get a credit on this trailer because I haven’t seen this many explosions since watching Transformers.

Modern Warfare 3 will be released on November 8, 2011 for PS3, 360 and PC.

Hold on… this “Specialist “strike class” or whatever it’s called. You get 3 other perks to go along with the 3 you have?

That is just stupid and ridiculous.

Marvel Releases New Avengers Promo Image

“Battleship” (2012) Trailer

Directed by: Peter Berg
Stars: Alexander Skarsgard, Liam Neeson, Brooklyn Decker, Taylor Kitsch, Josh Pence, Rihanna

Plot Summary: A fleet of ships is forced to do battle with an armada of unknown origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals. [IMDB]

This is based off the Hasbro board game. As dumb as this film will probably be, I just gotta see every movie that Liam Neeson stars in. The prospects of hearing him say the infamous lines, “YOU SUNK MY BATTLESHIP!” is tempting enough to get me to go watch it. Other than that, I’m kinda disappointed in the mechanical and audio design of the aliens so far, because they come off as an offshoot of Transformers. Probably the same team behind those films, too, since this film is from Paramount.

Check it out when the battle ensues next summer!

I seriously do not get how this is related to the Battleship board game. Those “pegs” that hit the battleship? I dunno. This will probably hit like #2 on the Opening Weekend.

3DS Price Dropped From $249.99 to $169.99

Well, that was quick.

To say that 3DS sales haven’t gone exactly what Nintendo had hoped is a bit of an understatement. Now the gaming company hopes to rectify the situation in a big way. Starting August 12, prices of the 3DS handhelds will drop from $249.99 to $169.99 — a whopping $80.

What about those who shelled out $250+ for a 3DS since launch? A little bit pissed? I’m sure. Though, consumers only have themselves to blame, in my opinion. Still, in an effort to ease the collective pains of early adopters, Nintendo will be offering 20 free games to download from the Nintendo eShop to those who had purchased a 3DS since launch and will purchase a 3DS before August 12.

Considering how recent the 3DS is and the level of its capabilities, this price cut is a bit surprising. I’m sure there are many factors that might have contributed to Nintendo’s decision. The price being too high to begin with and the need to be able to compete with Vita sales are a couple. There’s also something to be said about the state of high-tech handhelds and their place in the market, but that’s an argument for another time.

One thing’s for sure, at $170, the 3DS is a good buy.

Time to get a 3DS.
