News::Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Campaign Save Glitch Still Not Fixed

Jermain for RGN writes: "Recently I had the unfortunate luck of discovering a glitch in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfares singleplayer outing. After finishing the campaign, not only did I not unlock the trophy for doing so but I noticed that I wasnt able to replay the missions I had previously completed, via mission select. A few days ago developer Sledgehammer Games released a patch for the game to fix many of the numerous issues it was facing. In the list of things the patch was supposed to fix, Fixed rare save game issue affecting playthrough progression, was one of them."

News::Review: Assassin's Creed: Rogue | Stevivor

Matt Gosper -- "The end of the year has arrived, so its time for another Assassins Creed on PS3 and Xbox 360 but with a twist. Unlike last years Black Flag, which released across last- and current-gen platforms, 2014 gives us two distinct and very different flavours of Creed: the current-gen Unity and the last-gen Assassins Creed: Rogue. While Unity deals with the French Revolution, Rogue tells a more personal tale revolving around newcomer to the franchise, Shay Cormac."

News::Resident Evil 7 Not To Be Survival-Horror?

Capcom do appear to be keeping their stance from recent installments of the Resident Evil franchise about what genre the game should fit in to. The justification of Capcom for making and maintaining this decision is that it is harder now to market a AAA survival-horror game than an action one. The franchise has been changing its formula gradually since it started, but with major changes occurring with Resident Evil 4 and 5. Resident Evil started out as a pure survival-horror game that was critically acclaimed for managing to maintain tension when walking down a corridor for about 10 minutes at a time.

News::Why Half-Life 2 is still the greatest FPS ever made, 10 years on

A decade after Half-Life 2s release, the masses are still obsessed with the release date/announcement/vaguest hint of existence of its currently-nebulous sequel. This is no mere case of fans chasing down leaks, scouring LinkedIn profiles, and hanging on the odd hint dropped in a developer interview. The search for Half-Life 3 is more akin to the actions of the heavily grieving bereaved. A single-minded focus on a missing loved one, leading to dreams, obsessions, and the chasing of imagined ghosts.

News::Blood Opinions -Too Obvious, Not Going To Title It That

SteamFirst: With the advent of the influx of retro releases on Steam, this was almost as inevitable as it was welcome. I almost believe that this game was released so some marketing guru can take the lead characters opening line, I live, again, slap it on a press release, and get paid. It might just be that there is enough nostalgia for the initial game that squeezing the rock to extract the titular substance is a no brainer. Whatever the case, Monoliths Blood is back.

In the presentation, Jubert explained the intended approach to discussing philosophy with the player, but I was only able to get through a few puzzles.

With its retail release scheduled in less than a month, I have had some more time to spend with Croteam's first-person puzzler. So far, it has made me think hard, both about the solutions to puzzles and its thoughts about sapience.

AusGamers takes a look at the very first few days of World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor as they begin a new diary format in reviewing the latest expansion to Blizzard's MMO: Expansion launches for any game are not unbeknown to server issues, it is a given really and something I wouldn't typically complain about especially on said launch day. However, with Blizzard now reaching its tenth year of running such a massive MMORPG, you would think such problems had been solved long ago, especially such simple tasks like sharing tagged creatures in a questing zone.
