Overkill's The Walking Dead Delayed Again

Overkill’s The Walking Dead is a tie in to the well-known series created by Robert Kirkman and to the #1 AMC hit show of the same name. The game will be incorporating the primary theme of survival horror, as well as elements like role-playing, action, and stealth; it “invites players to explore the hugely popular The Walking Dead universe, where they will play the role of survivors fending for themselves in a post apocalyptic world dominated by flesh-eating walkers.” The game will be set in the fall in Washington.

Delays for Overkill Software’s anticipated co-op FPS, The Walking Dead are, at this point, unsurprising. The game was first announced back in 2014 and has been subjected to tentative release dates ever since. Last year, it was said the game would be delayed until the second half of 2017. Now, we have news from Starbreeze Studios’ website (Starbreeze owns Overkill Software- the more you know, right?) that the anticipated title will be delayed yet again. When can we expect the game now? The second half of 2018.

Starbreeze did not provide an exact reason for the delay, but it could safe to assume it’s the usual “we want to make the best game we can” mantra.

When the game was announced three years ago, it was met with great enthusiasm from fans of The Walking Dead, especially given the head-scratcher that was Activision’s Survival Instinct which was released one year prior. Overkill wants to do the fans and the series itself justice, and it could very well turn into the co-op survival game The Walking Dead fans have been waiting on.  

 The Walking Dead was announced for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and will also feature a complimentary VR-experience. Hopefully we won’t have to wait until 2018 to finally get our hands on it.

Zombie Army Trilogy

Zombie Army Trilogy

Zombies have been the perpetual whipping young men of the shooter sort for some time now, and it was certain that sooner or later they’d get squashed up with Nazis – second in the gun feed class table – to make a definitive blame free focuses to impact away at.  While Zombie Army Trilogy on the PC is a long way from the first to wheel out these undead fascists, it does endeavor to convey a novel twist to the fights against its undead army, by utilizing a significant number of the mechanics from the Sniper Elite recreations – including its scandalous murder cam. This discharge is really a re-mastering of two bits of PC selective substance, with the expansion of a just took the ribbon off new third battle section to round... Read More

Alien: Isolation

Alien: Isolation

In addition, of every last one of games I’ve played in the not so distant past, Alien: Isolation is most worth appreciating. The last item has ended up being just as fulfilling as the different demos I’ve played over the recent months; the diversion succeeds on various levels.  It’s a grand bit of fan administration, the most perfectly and splendidly acknowledged virtual adjustment of a motion picture universe ever dedicated to polygons, yet its dedication to the source material doesn’t take on at the cost of playability. It couldn’t have happened to a superior film. Outsider wasn’t just an original bit of sci-fi film, yet a point of interest work of frightfulness too. Inventive Assembly has drawn most intensely on that... Read More

The Evil Within 2

The Evil Within 2 may be more of a mixed bag than its predecessor. While it takes certain strong praises of the original and improves on them tenfold, such as the aforementioned art direction, Tango Gameworks’ return to the series sees not only a drastic change in pacing and narrative, but a complete shift in structure as well – something which is much to the detriment of this experience. While The Evil Within was a pretty mixed bag overall, it was a welcome return back to the time of second-era Resident Evil games. It may have been a shoddy revitalization of a genre that had been phased out in place of a plethora of even shoddier third-person action games, but its strong art direction and visual trickery showed true promise which ...

Resident Evil 7

The end result is a bit more like old Resident Evil than people may have imagined, and in the best way possible. One could find a lot of cause to compare this sequel to the reboot of Doom. It captures the spirit of old Resident Evil games and brings it forward in a modern, fresh direction. For those who may have felt betrayed by Resident Evil 6’s heavy action leanings, Resident Evil 7 is for you. You star as Ethan, a man on the hunt for his wife Mia. Thought to be dead, he receives an email from her three years later telling him to find her at Baker Plantation in Louisiana. Nothing strange about that, of course. Ethan heads off in order to find Mia. One has to wonder what first goes through Ethan’s head when he arrives, as he’s greeted... Read More

Outlast 2

  Outlast set a new bar for indie and mainstream horror when it came out in 2013. It made waves among the horror themed Let’s Players of the world, but was also critically acclaimed for its design and characters. It was so popular that a sequel was only sensible, and now we have Outlast 2. Instead of traveling back to Mount Massive Asylum, players are dropped in the middle of a deranged cult village and must traverse churches, mountains, forests, swamps, and mines to find their wife and escape. All the while, you record the horrors you witness and uncover the secrets of the cult, as well as face memories of your past. In story, Outlast 2 has no relation to its predecessor, but fans of the original will find that... Read More

FRIDAY THE 13TH

Well, the franchise has grown up after the movie released after following the Kickstarter campaign and watching this game grow, I could not have been more excited when I found out I was going to be reviewing Friday the 13th: The Game. I’m a huge fan of the movies and longed for a game worthy of being associated with these cult classics. The second I turned it on I was greeted with some nostalgic 80’s TV style publisher and developer logos, which were accompanied by tinny sound and the bad quality you would find on an old home video. The scene was set and I was ready for things to get real scary, real fast. Sadly, this excitement never came to fruition. The premise of the game is nice and simple; just like the movies’ you are...
