Tankulus rift Forget whether or not videogames are art. A wave of acceptance is sure to wash over the world when more people realize they can be used forwar. When you’re in a tank, you can’t see much, what with the thick armor attempting to save your life. With four simple external cameras routing images back to a PC and through the Oculus Rift, you get a game-like, three dimensional view of your surroundings, letting you duck inside the tank when you’re being shot at and the like without sacrificing visibility....

The definitions are so high I’ve been a big fan ofOddworldfrom the very beginning. And the beginning is coming around again with the looming arrival ofOddworld: New & Tasty, a remake of the original classicAbe’s Oddysseein high-definition. I like my old versions just fine but, holy hell, the visual difference is staggering. It would be so nice to get a newOddworldgamealong the line here. It is a franchise which has frequently promised a lot more content than it has delivered, long seeming to struggle to find an audience large enough to match its ambition....

Insert your favorite blinking gif here I knew thatStar Wars Battlefront IIwould get a significant boost from its free giveaway on the Epic Games Store, but now that the dust has settled on the deal, the final tally is truly ridiculous. In a tweet today, Electronic Arts confirmed that “more than 19 million players” took part in the promo. That doesn’t mean they allplayedit (or ever will), but that figure bodes well for the inevitableStar Wars Battlefront III, to say nothing of the Epic Games Store’s foothold in the PC game marketplace in general....

A new poll has been conducted by Common Sense Media that claims 72% of American adults would support the kind of regulation that California has been trying to impose on videogames for years, restricting by law the sale of violent games to minors. According to the poll, which asked 2100 people, 65% of parents are worried about the affects of violent videogames, and 75% say they would rate the industry negatively when it came to protecting their children....

I really didn’t expectRoboCop: Rogue Cityto even be any good when it wasfirst revealed, let alone be absorbed in a demo of it for hours. Licensed games are rarely high up on my priorities, and even though I loveRoboCop, I never thought anyone would go to the effort of doing the movie justice in a video game. RoboCopis a lot more than just a license easily transferable to action figures. The 1987 movie was a surprisingly grey look at corporate overreach, gentrification, the role of police, and the nature of humanity, among other things....

Supposed technical specs of new handheld and console As skeptical as I am about the rumored name of Nintendo’s next game hardware, “Nintendo Fusion,” the idea that the company would have a console and handheld that work hand in hand coming off of the Wii U does sound like an obvious move. Nintendo News has been tipped off by “one of [its] very reputable sources” with technical specifications for the rumored systems, “Fusion DS” and “Fusion Terminal” (again, really?...

Word Up For a while, puzzle-sequelScribblenauts Showdownwas one of the industry’s worst-kept secrets. Now, just like that, the game is ready and waiting on multiple platforms, with publisher Warner Bros. releasing a launch trailer as a gentle reminder. The new game, which features a lax, party style, sees players engage against each other in twenty-five fun mini-games, based aroundScribblenautstrademark draw-to-life mechanics. The game also features the return of the Sandbox mode, where players must overcome obstacles with imaginative use of items which can be conjured out of thin-air....

Lo Wang coming to get you, little snake coward! First came Duke Nukem, then came Lo Wang, and now come the reboots. Flying Wild Hog, developer ofHard Reset,annoucedit is making a reboot ofShadow Warrior, the offbeat, borderline offensive but all the way awesome Hong Kong cinema influenced follow-up toDuke Nukem 3D. This unexpected reboot is being produced by Devolver Digital (Serious Sam 3,Hotline Miami). I remember drooling over the images of the often delayedShadow Warriorin the mid-90s, only to be underwhelemed by it once it released in 1997 after the arrival of 3D first-person shooters....

The possibility is being discussed ‘regularly’ Evoland, an exploration of adventure games’ evolution from independent developer Shiro Games, is currently available for PC through Steam and GOG.com, with an iOS release due later this month. However, given the nature of the game and the roots on which it was developed, why hasEvolandnot released on any of Nintendo’s hardware? Will it ever? “We have talked with Nintendo about this and it is something that we would like to do in theory,” Shiro Games CEO Sebastien Vidal told Destructoid....
