News::Battlefield for: Veterans, apparently

Wow, where to begin? Well, we already knew about Battlefield 4s graphics from a previous single player demo. While the older Frostbite engines are still clearly visible, its had a huge graphical overhaul and the scale appears to have been upped considerably. This is mostly thanks to the next generation of consoles peeking around the corner, consoles which once every seven years threaten to vault gaming to the level it should rightfully be at. It was reportedly running on a PC specced comparably with an Xbone and PS4. Anyway, Im in awe.

Zombies are nothing new when it comes to survival horror but Techland Studios, the developers behind the Dead Island franchise, are looking to continue to trend with their upcoming first-person action adventure where youll have to use your parkour skills in order to survive in an open world environment. During our E3 demo, one of the most impressive features of the game was an absence of any type of HUD. No map, no health bar, nothing except for the weapon youre carrying. Instead, the game relies on the environment to guide the player.

News::The Dead Linger is a real ringer

I'm pretty sure that everyone who plays games has an idea of their perfect zombie game. Mine has always been about fortifying an area and living in terror of the undead. Fortunately Geoff Keene and his team from Sandswept Studios are there to fulfill my fantasies.

The Dead Linger is an open-world sandbox game in which every object can be manipulated. This means that when you pick up boards you can nail them over windows, construct shelves, or build a treehouse. That's right, you can build treehouses to fight off zombies and the game is only in alpha.

Stoked yet? I thought so. Check out the video to sneak in on my conversation with Geoff.

The trailer they showcased captures this ambition perfectly with moogles, summons, limit breaks, cactuar, and none other than Cid and his infamous airship. The developers also aren't forgetting what fans love about Final Fantasy: the story and characters. A unique way they want to go about that in the MMO realm is to let you create your own Final Fantasy story and character.

Tonight, on a very special episode of Dtoid's Friday Night Fights, Destructoid PC contributor Josh Derocher will teach you how to play EVE Online!

Whether you're completely new to the game and looking for tips or an old hand who just wants to play with a bona fide videogames bloggans, Josh has you covered. Here's his note to anyone interested in joining:

It's time to try out EVE! If you are EVE-curious at all, I want to show you what it's like! I want to get a group together and take a look at the basics, run some missions, do some mining, and just get a feel of what the game is like!

What you need to do is sign up for a trial for EVE, install the client, and run it to make sure it's patched. It's big so please make sure you do this ahead of time! Also go ahead and create a character. Use Caldari as your race, this will ensure we all start in the same area.

Thanks, Josh! This will be the first in what will hopefully become a monthly feature here on Dtoid, where we get a staff member to "train" people on his or her gaming specialty. Let us know if you like the idea, and which game(s) you'd like to see featured next!

News::Smash Bros. will not feature 3DS and Wii U cross-play

Despite the fact that many people were anticipating the feature, it looks like there won't be any cross-platform play between the 3DS and Wii U versions of the upcoming Smash Bros.game.

Even though there is probably a lot more afoot than this one reason, game Director Masahiro Sakurai states that since each version of the game features different stages, cross-platform play "wouldn't work," but there will be some interaction by way of transferring customized characters. They won't be costumes, Sakurai said, because he doesn't want to "take away from what makes each character unique" -- which presumably leaves a possibility for ability re-skins or different character colors.

The lack of cross-platform play isn't a deal-breaker by any means, but I enjoyed the feature on the Vita and PS3 with PlayStation All-Stars , as it allowed me to play the game with friends who only bought the game on one platform.

No cross-platform [Joystiq]

News::E3 2013: How to Survive in the zombie apocalypse | GamerTell

From the preview, "I came into E3 feeling very curious about How to Survive by developer EKO Software. Its being shown off at an interesting time. The latest hit in the zombie apocalypse genre is State of Decay. State of Decay is so well received because it makes us scavenge for supplies and manage a small community of survivors as opposed to constantly gunning down zombies. How to Survive is both similar and drastically different from State of Decay. Although you will also be scavenging in How to Survive, the reasons for scavenging are completely different. How to Survive places an emphasis on crafting. You can combine items you find into things that will ultimately aid in your survival. Want to make a homemade assault rifle that shoots bolts and screws? You can do that."
