News::A game about Frozen's Anna giving birth

Another treasure from the mobile games space courtesy of former Destructoid editor Nick Chester.


This one's called Anna Giving Birth and while I ponder what kind of audience this iPhone/iPad game exists to serve, I'll let the official description set the stage: "Anna got married and she was pregnant in the spring. Now nine months had elapsed, and it's time to give birth to a baby. Anna needs a very experienced doctor to help her deliver her baby. Let's come to help her!"


And the user reviews! Haha, the user reviews. To think, I held off on posting about this for a couple hours. Each time I flipped back to my browser tab, the game's shiny baby icon made me laugh a bit more until finally I decided that, "Yes, writing about Anna Giving Birth is a good idea."


There's also a similar game, Frozen Anna Give Birth A Baby , for our web-browsing friends. You start by monitoring the baby's heartbeat while sexy baby-making music plays in the background.

News::Up for another Battlefield Hardline beta? This one's open to all platforms

It's unclear when the next Battlefield Hardline beta will go live, but when it does, it'll be open to all players on PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.


Cops and criminals will vie for control in the familiar Conquest mode, as well as engage in high-speed pursuits in Hotwire. The latter is what I imagined when "Battlefield with cops" was first thrown around. Looks promising. As for maps, we're getting two: Dust Bowl and Downtown.


The first beta didn't leave much of an impression, but I admittedly didn't give it sufficient time to do so. I'll give the game another chance, probably. The uncapped player progression is alluring.

This is the first preview for Dying Light I've seen in a good while that's actually got me curious. Games like this live and die by their worlds, after all. So if there are enough interesting nooks and crannies in Dying Light's city, it'd sure liven up all the zombie-killing within.

News::So many buzzwords in one game's title

I feel like the developer's cribbin' from something, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Oh, well. Maybe the 2015 version will be a bit more forward.

News::Vince Livings on Monkey Filled Nightmare Dark Deception

Ahmad Khan writes: "Kickstarter is like a magnet for horror games, it seems there's a new one popping up every day. Given the constant flow of options, it takes quite a bit for new horror projects to stand out from the pack. That's something that Dark Deception has done; just ask Markiplier and PewDiePie, both of whom have favorably covered the game in the past. To learn more about the disturbing nightmare that is Dark Deception I sent some questions off to man in charge, Vince Livings, for some additional details."
