In Game Vs Reality What Mass Effect 3 Characters Look Like In Real Life

Apart from a couple of issues with the ending, Mass Effect 3 is an outstanding RPG adventure. The writing is engaging, the combat is really fun, and it boasts some clever level design. However, an aspect that also deserves a lot of credit is the voice acting. Mass Effect 3 has some truly captivating and likable characters, yet they wouldn’t be the same without the talented people providing their voices. They deserve some extra recognition, which also gives fans a chance to see how different or similar they look to the characters they’re voicing....

Indie Arcade Flight Sim Project Wingman Takes 2Nd Place In Steam Sellers List Just Behind Cyberpunk 2077

If you told me a month ago that an indie game that knocks off Ace Combat would sit right behind Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam’s top-sellers list, I’d have called you crazy. But 2020 has been crazy all year long, so the joke’s on me. But saying Project Wingman is just an Ace Combat clone would be selling the game short. Project Wingman adds to the Ace Combat formula with full VR support and a hectic roguelike mode that ensures the action keeps pilots gripping their flight sticks with white knuckles....

Infinity Ward Explains Call Of Duty S Jump From Modern Warfare To Ghosts

Even with a leap to the next generation Call of Duty hasn’t escaped the criticisms of complacency that accompany its annual release. When last week’s Call of Duty: Ghosts trailer debuted at Microsoft’s Xbox One reveal, it didn’t take long for audiences to recognize the game by its many war-shooter tropes and grandiose set pieces. Now, alone that’s no indictment – underwater sub assaults still have a few more Call of Dutys to go before becoming prosaic – but developer Infinity Ward didn’t help its case by explaining days later that Call of Duty: Ghosts’s “new” graphics engine wasn’t entirely built from the ground up....

Grand Theft Auto 6 Characters Have A Ton Of Potential Directions

It’s no secret that Grand Theft Auto 5 was a massive success for the series. Considering how many sales records the title lapped multiple times over, it’s easily become the highest selling Grand Theft Auto game of all time. Most would point to the innovations in Grand Theft Auto Online that propelled the game’s success into best-selling status, but prior to the blossoming of the multiplayer mode, the single player also took an incredible risk with incorporating three main protagonists in the story....
