All the Witcher 3 pre-order deals available at up to 28% off

Witchin’ deals Update: Title was previously “up to 35% off” but that was in error given the GMG deal has been long gone. Sorry for the goof. There’s a minipre-order price warof sorts going on withThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and unsurprisingly, most of the deals are found at digital retailers abroad that also serve the North American market. (Some rather unpleasant now-public stuff hasalso surfaced.) Lots of deals are available below, although for Australians looking to buy a copy ofThe Witcher 3, we’d suggest DLGamer or Green Man Gaming....

Bullet For My Valentine headed to Rock Band this Tuesday

When I first saw that Bullet For My Valentine was coming toRock Band 3, I somehow managed to confuse them with My Bloody Valentine (alt-rock darlings from the very early 90’s). But then I saw the tracklist and thought, “Wait, ‘Tears Don’t Fall’ isn’t by My Bloody Valentine.” So, I looked up the music video and realized I was off. Like, not even close. Oh well, the video had 40M views, so I’m assuming there’s at least a few people out there who love them....

Dead Space 3: Awakened is a return to survival horror

Overall, I really enjoyedDead Space 3. There were points that it dragged on, but a lot of the stuff near the end in those last few levels made it up for me. Still,Dead Space 2is my favorite of the franchise largely because of the dementia and horror focus of the game. So I’m actually quite thrilled with the upcoming downloadable content,Awakened. I played the DLC at a recent EA studio visit and, for better or worse, I was more freaked out in the twenty minutes that I got to check out than the entirety ofDead Space 3....

Did you ever own or play a Virtual Boy?

I wish it was more readily available On July 11, 2025, 20 years ago today, the Virtual Boy was released in Japan. It was widely considered a failure in just about every respect, and Nintendo pulled sales seven months after it debuted in August of 1995 in the US. Personally, I enjoyed the system quite a bit. I had the good fortune of spending an entire week with my cousin after his parents bought him one, and we stayed up very late taking turns using the visor....

The developer jumped on board quite quickly withBlaster Master Zeroand has kept pace with the meteoric rise of the platform, churning out a handful of niche titles over the past year and a half....

E3: Getting ARROWED in Crysis 3

If there was one thing this E3 didn’t want for, it was first-person shooters. The Electronic Arts booth in particular hadBattlefield 3 Premium,Medal of Honor: WarfighterandCrysis 3all on display, and I have to say it was getting difficult to tell the difference between them. At one point, partly due to end-of-show fatique, I wandered over to a booth to play what I thought wasCrysis 3, and it wasn’t until I squinted for a moment that I realized I was about to play a different game entirely....

Final Fantasy VII Remake boss muses on the idea of including FFVII adjacent stories

‘For the time being, please wait for VII’s turn to come.’ It took them a while, but Square Enix eventually cashed in hard onFinal Fantasy VIIin the same way they’re doing withFinal Fantasy XVright now. It got a full-on film inAdvent Children, PSP and PS2 spinoffs, and all sorts of ports and extended cross-media opportunities. It’s one of the most recognizable JRPGs to date for a reason. So it makes sense why people would be curious as to whether or notFinal Fantasy VIIwas theonlything getting a remake....
