Interview Luis Antonio On The Ambitious Creation Of 12 Minutes

12 Minutes began life as a far larger project, but it wasn’t long until creative director Luis Antonio saw the importance in scale, and how forcing the player into a smaller, more claustrophobic environment could make the experience all the more memorable. It’s this confined idea of procedural decision making that helped the game make such a splash upon its initial reveal, and the finishing touches are finally being put on the long-awaited adventure....

Introducing Far Cry New Dawn S First Two Guns For Hire

In Far Cry New Dawn, the apocalypse wasn’t enough to stop Hope County from regrowing - though it took several years for nuclear winter to give way to a colorful new beginning. In the game, players will take refuge at a base with the hopeful name of Prosperity, and it’ll be filled with equally-hopeful inhabitants. Like its predecessor, Far Cry New Dawn won’t make players go through the game alone: Prosperity is home to a healthy selection of guns for hire, which is Ubisoft lingo for AI companions with special abilities....

Is New World S Player Count Sustainable

People started sharing New World‘s initial player count figures earlier this morning when the game officially launched in select regions, and the results were shocking. As of 10 A.M. EST this morning, the game already had nearly 525,000 concurrent players via Steam. While those numbers are always a little tricky to depend on so far as absolute accuracy goes, that ballpark figure alone already suggests that New World is by far one of the most successful new games of the year and one of the most successful we’ve seen on Steam in quite some time....

House Of Cards Season 5 Review

This House of Cards review contains spoilers. It is based on the first six episodes. It’s impossible to watch the new season of House of Cards without the shadow of the current U.S political situation — and the turbulent election that got us here — hanging over it. Even though the show started production on its fifth 13-episode run (the first with new showrunners Melissa James Gibson and Frank Pugliese at the helm, replacing creator Beau Willimon) before last November’s election results — and the tragicomedy that has unfolded ever since — stunned the nation and the world, the serpentine storylines that the show is unfurling this year seem like they’re ripped right from the headlines of a parallel universe just this side of ours....
