Destiny is the same gameplay experience on last-gen, but looks pretty rough

720p is so last-gen [Screenshots shown here are not the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 versions.] The marketing forDestinywould have you believe that the only place it makes an appearance is on the PlayStation 4. But no, it certainly made its way to Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. The latter of the three, specifically, are particularly surprising. Of course,Destinywas announced before the now current-gen consoles were even announced, so Bungie made due on its original announcement to bring their new shooter to last-gen systems....

Devil May Cry 5 had the best showing at E3 for me, and it wasn’t even close

Every year for the past nine years or so, I’ve either covered or sat in every press conference at E3. I’ve seen major mind-blowing reveals, flubbed stage demos, and witness broken dreams. But in recent years E3 has winded down a bit. A lot of the big-time announcements are either leaked, announced ahead of time, or saved for a “Direct” style presentation where the publisher can entirely control the narrative in a sterile environment....

Donkey Kong Country trilogy returning to Virtual Console in the UK

And the Donkey Kong Land series is headed to 3DS Back in November 2012, Nintendo removed theDonkey Kong Countryseries from the Wii’s Virtual Console for some reason that, to my knowledge, was never publicly addressed. But those games will resurface this month on Wii U alongside theDonkey Kong Landseries on 3DS. The release schedule, at least for the UK, is as follows: Bonus: if you purchase one of theDonkey Kong Countrytitles before November 6, you’ll get a 33 percent discount onDonkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze....

FIFA 14 adds layers of realism to the pitch

Refined mechanics aim to keep things fresh From what I understand,FIFA 14is one of the earliest games to be shown consistently running on Xbox One hardware, rather than being demonstrated on PC-based development kits. That being the case, I expected a solid performance from the game from the get-go, and while the build I played wasn’t the final product, it really felt close enough. Rather than offering up the full 33 licensed leagues, my experience with this build featured several well known clubs from around the world....

Get your multiplayer out of my single player!

I’ve invested quite a bit of time intoFinal Fantasy III DSsince its release. Sure, I’ve been hemorrhaging cash in various other directions too, butFFIIIhas been my little go-to buddy, filling morning commutes and lazy afternoons nearly effortlessly. Though I’ve gone on the record more than once over my distaste for Square-Enix’s recent surge of franchise-whoring, I can’t say I blame them for going back to the well when there’s so many good games to revisit....
