News::2014 PUG Game of the Year Awards: Day Seven

Amber Colyer writes: "It might be a popular and obvious pick, but my game of the year is undoubtedly deserving of such an accolade. It rolled forth on a storm cloud of improvement from its predecessor, which had left many fans of the series disappointed, and quickly established itself as one of the greatest action RPGs in recent memory. What I'm talking about, of course, is Dragon Age: Inquisition."

News::The Dune MMO and Kickstarter's Slippery Slope

Greg Micek writes: "As we gear up for our look back at 2014 we're putting together lots of info on what went right (and wrong!) over the past 12 months. Before we get to that though, let's take a look at how 2015 is starting. The holiday dry spell is over, which means that we should be getting back to a steady flow of quality projects, right? Hopefully. One of the first projects of the year continues one of the more unfortunate trends we continue to see on Kickstarter. The Dune MMO Kickstarter campaign aims to raise $1.2million."

Marcus Estrada writes: "2012 was a massive year for Kickstarter and gaming. It was the year that both Double Fine Adventure and Ouya campaigns appeared. Everyone in the game development scene was trying to bring their product to the masses via the site, and that included many industry icons. Jane Jensen was one of these people. Best known for her work on the Gabriel Knight series, she pitched a campaign to bring forth a new development studio known as Pinkerton Road. Not only that, but she would be creating a new game similar in tone to the classic Gabriel Knight games."

News::Jawless Diddy Kong amiibo sells for $400

I don't get the whole defective amiibo scene.


Maybe if the figures have been out for longer and were bonafide super rare collector's items on their own, but right now you can still get pretty much every figure for under $100. The dual-wielding Samus figure auction for $2500 was pretty crazy, but the newest one is the jawless Diddy Kong listing that ended up selling for $400. Oddly enough this dual-wielding Pit is struggling to reach $100. Why did Samus sell more than Pit? We'll probably never know.


For whatever reason though some defective amiibo are doing well, so if you see something wrong with yours, no matter how small the problem, consider not opening it up.

News::Keiji Inafune reveals new stage for Mighty No. 9, game 'almost done'


Mighty No. 9's Keiji Inafune is ringing in the New Year with a look at a new stage for the game. It seems to have a castle-like feel to it, with red carpets and fancy chandeliers. According to the producer/director, the game is "pretty much finished" and they are heading into the porting and promotion stage. So that's how the finished product is going to look, I guess?


I'm digging the gameplay based on the beta, but the visual style still looks really meh to me. No, it doesn't need to look exactly like the unrealistic concept art, but the engine itself is very uninspired and bland. I'm wondering how this project will turn out as a whole in the end.


To get a better view of the game in action, check out my playthroughs of all three beta stages below.

January starts things off slow with the retail debut of titles like Dying Light, and Saints Row: Gat out of Hell. Even though these games may not necessarily appeal to everyone, there is absolutely no doubt that they are destined to be some of the better titles out this month.
