DOOM Eternal E3 2019 Preview

I'll be honest and say that this is perhaps jarring, and it isn't entirely RAGE 2 's fault. First-person shooters, most notably open-world FPS games, have conditioned us to focus on range, sniping, and distance. Stripping that away from players is a sacrifice of comfort and safety; don't expect to be able to take pot-shots at an enemy from across the

Just a handful of games have been confirmed for Google Stadia so far. We've listed all of the announced games as well as Google's announced partnerships with studios, as at least one company is making a yet untitled game for the Stadia platf

Google has promised that Stadia will be compatible with a variety of controllers, and specifically showed the Xbox One controller during its GDC 2019 keynote presentation. However, Stadia will also have its own specific controller, which looks somewhat like a cross between the Xbox One controller and the DualShock 4. How the Stadia controller feels and operates compared to the competition remains to be seen, but it will be interesting to see what consumers think once it's finally available to the mas

While these short sections did break things up, the traversal mechanics that have been added in combat arenas are largely great. Jumping and swinging on a monkey bar to launch yourself into the air only to then drop out of the sky and blast a Cacodemon in the face with your Super Shotgun is extremely satisfy

One area where Google has actually offered some solid answers is in regards to Stadia's games. At the GDC 2019 keynote presentation, Google announced three games that will be coming to Stadia, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey and the upcoming Doom Eternal . Additionally, an untitled game from PixelJunk studio Q-Games is also in the works for Sta

RAGE 2 is coming to PC, PS4, and Xbox One on May 14, 2019. Anyone looking to take the post-apocalyptic dive can pre-order the game on Amazon , or the special edition version if you want a mutant head . Seriou

As Nintendo has pointed out in the past, it is a company that tends to focus on the near term, showing off games and projects that typically launch within a year. However, Nintendo made a shocking reveal at the very end of its E3 2019 Direct by breaking from tradition to show teaser footage for a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild . The footage shows Link and Zelda exploring a dungeon below Hyrule Castle and running into what could be a reanimated corpse of Ga

PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, which were not out May 2016, are a central focus this time around. The developers intend to push the enhanced consoles as hard as possible to attain a 4K image running at 60 FPS. As for the base PS4 and Xbox One, id says the game will still run well on them.

Speaking of the Stadia release date, that is another area that Google has been vague about. While a specific release date is currently unavailable, we know that Google is hoping to launch Stadia in the Americas and most of Europe by the end of 2019, with more regions presumably pop over to these guys follow in 2020 and bey

id loves the fact that they can have a glowing green Extra Life pickup in their game and have it look natural. Something like that could never work in a game like Gears of War or The Last of Us, which aim for realism, yet fits perfectly in Doom Eternal. The developers are going all it in to make pickups super distinguishable by combining the right shaders and lighting. It’s the perfect blend of old school for a new school world.

At GDC 2019, Google announced Google Stadia, its game-streaming, and game-sharing platform. In addition to features like cross-platform play and the ability to get help from Google Assistant, Google also had a few announcements to make about the supported Google Stadia ga

Third-party releases will no doubt be important for Google Stadia, but Google knows it needs high-quality exclusive games if it hopes to succeed in the market. As a result, Google has charged former Ubisoft and EA executive Jade Raymond with heading a studio that will focus on first-party exclusive games for the Stad

Dylan Cuthbert, the founder of Q-Games, confirmed that the studio would be basing its next game around the feature. Cuthbert didn't reveal the title, setting or gameplay, but did say that more information would be shared later in the y

Unlike DOOM , Avalanche's title makes waves by throwing in diversity in actual gameplay--you aren't always wandering around shooting monsters or soldiers. I spent a good chunk of my time just exploring the in-game city, talking to some of the city's survivors, and taking part in some drag-racing for clo

Snapmap, the fan-creation tool, won’t return in Doom Eternal. id revealed that one of the biggest criticisms they heard was that there was no single player DLC. Players wanted more id developed content, and so the developers opted to scrap Snapmap and focus those resources on post-launch single player content.
