It has been a long time coming and fans of Dragon Age can finally look forward to the next game in the series, Dragon Age: Inquisition.

A hilarious new trailer has been released for South Park: The Stick of Truth! Debuted during Ubisoft‘s E3 2013 press conference, the trailer focuses on Randy Marsh teaching a valuable important lesson: never fart on anyone’s balls. In true South Park fashion the trailer isn’t shy about poking fun at itself, making reference to the game’s constant delays. Very little gameplay is shown and it’s unfortunately short, but at least we get a couple laughs from a trailer that actually contains new footage. The game is due to out this holiday season on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3…or some holiday season…you know how video games are.

BulkyPix is back in action this summer for what they have said is to be their “lastest home-grown production” with the game SongRush! SongRush is a fresh, new and exciting music-based game where each and every level is generated by a song of your choice. With SongRush you use your favourite tunes to play your game.
The game is a “musical runner“, you guide a 2D, cartoon-styled character through particular courses which play out to the songs that you choose. The aim, of course, is to get through the whole song picking up bonuses and scoring points the whole way through. You start the game by choosing a song, any song, SongRush will use it no matter what it is, and the level will adjust itself to fit the melody and tempo. You take control of Ink who is the game’s funky, fresh main character. You help Ink avoid obstacles and you yourself use your knowledge of the songs’ particular changes in tempo and beat to anticipate what comes next and what you can do to get around the impending obstacle. Sliding and jumping at just the right times will earn you sweet combos, points and “perfect” runs that will increase your total score but keep the beat, players, because if you’re not feeling the rhythm then Ink will be in peril and could be snatched up by the tentacle monster he’s running from!
There are also player achievements to keep you going with this game for hours on end. You can compete against your friends in weekly tournaments, climb the leader board by challenging players worldwide and eventually become the true “Lord of Dance”!
SongRush is a free app that will be released on all iOSdevices on the 20th of June (This month) and all Android devices sometime early July. Check out the gallery below to see all the pictures we have of the upcoming game and go study up on those tunes so you can be the best runner the world has ever seen.
You may recall a Kinect game involving a flying dragon that you control was in the works for the Xbox 360 named Crimson Dragon. Well that game was announced quite some time ago but has been delayed non-stop with almost nothing said about it until some leaked footage at the start of the year.
The reason for all that silence was probably the fact that Crimson Dragon is now an Xbox One exclusive. Today during Microsoft‘s E3 Conference the company announced that Crimson Dragon will be a Xbox One exclusive and to commemorate the announcement they have released some new screenshots of the game in its next-gen glory and some gameplay footage.
Remember Zoo Tycoon? I sure do as I loved the game on the PC back in the day but it has been a long time since any Zoo Tycoon game was released. Well that has all changed because even though Microsoft didn’t think the announcement was important enough during their E3 press conference, it has been announced that Zoo Tycoon will be released on the Xbox One and Xbox 360 sometime in the future.
The new game will feature “all your favorite zoo animals available for a new level of up close and personal interactions with the animals and zoo, and with intuitive controls and fun tutorials that are enjoyable for players of all ages.”
The game is going to feature the Kinect but may not require it’s use at all times. Anyways, check out the trailer below and keep an eye out for more news as it becomes available.
Unhappy with the way your Xbox 360 slim isn’t slim enough for you or for some reason haven’t picked up an Xbox 360 console yet but are looking to do so? Then we have some great news for you!
