‘Survivor’ feature kinda identical to main game I know a lot aboutNight Trap, more than I really should. Closer to the launch of the upcoming25th Anniversary Edition, I’ll tell you all about it. In the meantime a new trailer hit for the controversial FMV game’s re-release, showcasing an additional new mode. ‘Survivor’ which has nothing to do with the ’70s prog-rock band of the same name, sees the Martin household overrun with Augers (the game’s vampiric beasts) which must be captured as quickly as possible, their numbers endlessly increasing until the player can take no more of that guitar-riff....

Seems simple enough Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker‘s amiibo support was shrouded in mystery for a while. Even at launch it wasn’t clear what amiibo actually did, but over time Nintendo revealed their plans. Not only could you earn extra 1-Ups by way of figures (lame), butthe Toad amiiboadds “extra pixel Toads” to find scattered about stages. Here’s the rub with the pixel-dudes — it looks like you’ll get to tap the figure down on the GamePad, then you’ll have 10 seconds to find it in a level, and make sure it’s visible on the screen to “claim it....

No one can hide from my nerfs The slight nerf to McCree and the undisclosed buff to D.Va are a forgone conclusion. It’s happening. But the third character that’s currently being looked at is Widowmaker, who is on Blizzard’s “radar.” I’ll let director Jeff Kaplan sum it up — “Widowmaker is on our radar. We are discussing her. We have some internal experiments going to see if we can keep her viable while lowering the frustration threshold a little bit....

Still just set for PC and Xbox One Grinding Gear Games has revealed thatPath of Exile, the fantastic free-to-play dungeon crawler, will finally arrive on Xbox One on August 24. This comes off of the heels of a beta phase of their latest and biggest expansion yet, theFall of Oriath. The publisher also notes that Tencent will be bringing the game to china on August 22.

‘Microsoft was after people who could do unique content and make weird games’ Max: The Curse of Brotherhooddeveloper Press Play hasonce againtalked about its fairly unique relationship with Microsoft, this time in an interview withOXM. The independent studio, it should be pointed out, was acquired by the company last year. “Microsoft was after people who could do unique content and make weird games, but it also needed a team that wasn’t huge, that hadn’t made breakout hits,” said Press Play co-founder Mikkel Thorsted....

A good sign for the future I’ve seen a lot of love for the newRatchet & Clankgame, but I couldn’t tell if that was the social media echo-chamber effect or if there really were a bunch of people getting way into Insomniac’s refresh of the PlayStation 2 original and talking up a storm. It was both, probably! While the studio hasn’t gone into specifics sales figures, it is callingRatchet & Clankfor PlayStation 4 the “fastest-selling game in franchise history....

Shouldering through the mass of (mostly) smelly nerds on Electronic Entertain Expo’s show floor is rough on the feet and hard on the nose. Target gets the feet part. At this year’s E3, Target is rolling out the “Bullseye Lounge,” a special place where you can relax and play some of 2009’s “hottest” videogames. But, wait, that’s not all: Target has confirmed food. Archer Farms brand snacks will be available to those seeking the shelter of the Bullseye Lounge....

Survival horror is quickly running out of places to go. The genre feels as though it has matured to the point where not a lot of innovation is going on. At least, until we heard aboutCursed Mountain. Last month,I previewed itand was pretty excited: the premise behind it, moving survival horror controls to the Wii to make for a more intimate experience, sounded good. Needless to say, I was pumped to rip into this one....

Besides the main mechanic, I really like those weapons Screencheatis one of the more conceptually interesting shooters I’ve seen in quite some time. This is a multiplayer game in which you’re not only encouraged to look at your opponents’ screens but are essentially required to do so since, well, everyone is invisible. Novel idea. From these trailers,Screencheatis somewhat disorienting but I’m willing to bet that over time, the four simultaneous screens become far less overwhelming....
