Telltale's Marvel Game Should Star This C-Tier Hero

The announced partnership between Marvel Studios and Telltale Games inevitably led to fevered speculation of what comic property The Walking Dead developers would tackle in 2017. Minds raced to some of the more obvious choices: The Punisher, Spider-Man, Daredevil. But with all due respect to Frank Castle, Peter Parker, and Matt Murdock, the under-appreciated Moon Knight would serve excellently as the subject of an episodic, dialogue-driven series while also offering new twists and possibilities for Telltale's signature storytelling formula. Allow me to explain.

Meet Smite's New Corpse-Loving God of Decay

The newest deity to join the third-person action MOBA, Smite, emerged from the Ninth Hell earlier this week to join the mythological fray – the Mayan God of Decay, Ah Puch (pronounced: Uh Pwash).

As a merciless necromancer and the Mayan King of the Underworld, Ah Puch naturally joins Smite as a Mage in the Rise My Minions! patch.

Ah Puch's ability to exhume corpses through the use of his spells allows him to consume the bodies, regenerating health and mana, or detonate them with for explosive damage. He excels at area-of-effect damage, while sustaining his own resources, and punishing enemy healing with bonus damage and a powerful stun for every tick of healing they receive. His ultimate ability is a massive area-covering spell that causes damage over time and applies a cumulatively stacking slow to any enemy caught in it.

GTA 5 Mayhem Mod is Complete Chaos

Last time, we looked at a Grand Theft Auto 5 mod that lets you dump a whale into traffic. Today, we played the Mayhem Mod, which lets you fire car missiles from your car and apply some chaotic physics effects to everything around you.

The Mayhem Mod, by someone called Unknown Modder, is actually a port of a Grand Theft Auto 4 mod. It lets you cycle through a series of effects, including the aforementioned car missiles. You can actually shoot out car missiles from any kind of vehicle, including: boats, blimps, and airplanes.

Physics effects called Blow Smash and Suck Smash let you throw cars away or towards you, respectively. Variation Smash combines the two, randomly tossing cars all over the place.

Will Windows 10 Unlock Achievements for Everything?

Xbox Live integration in Windows 10 could mean achievements will be a thing of plenty.

During today's Build conference, the integration of Xbox Live into Windows 10 was shown off in a flight-sim web application. During the demonstration, the controls were ignored and the single-propeller plane flew freely and without incident. Doing so unlocked the achievement "Do Nothing."

The Xbox Live integration was shown in the other direction, with a desktop Fitbit app running on the Xbox One. The demonstration there was to show only how the UI on desktop and Xbox One were identical, but with Windows 10 being Microsoft's universal platform, and the company's own estimates that Windows 10 will be on 1 billion devices, does this mean achievements will be everywhere?

Valve: Devs Can Permanently Ban Cheaters on Steam

"Playing games should be fun. In order to ensure the best possible online multiplayer experience, Valve allows developers to implement their own systems that detect and permanently ban any disruptive players, such as those using cheats," the official post reads.

Microsoft Facial Recognition Software Can Guess Your Age

During the Build 2015 conference, Microsoft showed off its facial recognition software that can make an educated guess at your age.

Microsoft's Joseph Sirosh showed off the How-Old.net website by loading a few photos, including the Mona Lisa, and letting the cloud software work its magic to instantly return an age range. The software showed Mona Lisa's age as 23, which is fairly accurate based on what we know of the model in the famous painting.

Sirosh then invited everyone watching the stream to visit the site and try it for themselves.

The purpose of the demonstration was to provide a jumping-off point for a discussion of cloud-hosted APIs and how Microsoft's software can use the cloud to analyze large amounts of data quickly and easily. But you catch more flies with honey than vinegar, so the cool little site was the hook to people's attention.

Is Microsoft HoloLens Ready for Prime Time?

Microsoft's Build conference for developers is in its second day, and one thing is clear: Microsoft wants you to know that Windows 10 is a "universal platform," and as such, HoloLens "is Windows 10."

First revealed at the Windows 10 Live Event in January, Microsoft's headset took a route different from other comparable headsets like Oculus Rift by augmenting reality rather than replacing it. And the company has been eager to show off what it sees as its potential strengths over VR or traditional input methods.

During a demonstration yesterday of the device, many hypothetical uses for the device were shown off, all of which fell into the "universal" and collaborative philosophy Microsoft has been touting since the beginning of its conference. An architecture firm was shown using the device to map out and share plans for a building, all supported by the robust Azure API, of course.

The first Broken Hill map is a bohrium mine deep under Shear. If Hunters win in Evacuation campaigns, their Mining Drones are converted into Shield Drones for the next match.

Monsters get a campaign effect too: if they break the mining drill, a series of earthquakes will "flush out" birds in the environment, creating a flurry to disorient Hunters.

Valve Gives Developers Power to Ban Players

Valve has announced that developers are now able to personally ban players that are "disruptive."

According to the Steam community announcement, Valve now allows developers to "implement their own systems that detect and permanently ban any disruptive players, such as those using cheats."

The game developer will notify Valve when such a player has been detected in their game, and Valve will apply the game ban to that account.

Steam is a massive platform, so it makes sense that Valve might outsource cheat detection to individual developers. It means that devs can issue a ban on players in a specific game, even if that game isn't enforced with Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) system.

2 Minutes of Gameplay Starring The Witcher 3's New Heroine

Ciri, the second playable character in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, doesn't play like Geralt at all. To begin with, she has limited magical powers -- Geralt's incredible Sign magic is nowhere to be seen. But Ciri isn't just an apprentice of Geralt of Rivia -- she's an extraordinary heroine with mysterious ghostly abilities, and a side-story with distinct quests to call her own. We've played her first few missions, and her linear, action-centric missions are a refreshing, regular change of pace from the expansive open world. Check out the debut gameplay for Ciri above, and learn more about her role from developer CDProjekt Red below.

Infinite Crisis Review

Growing up with Batman: The Animated Series, Kevin Conroy's voice was an indicator of whether or not I was going to get a real, good Batman story, and when I did indeed hear him in in Infinite Crisis, I was pleasantly surprised. Infinite Crisis is a beautiful, cartoony MOBA that handles the DC Comics characters with care. Unfortunately, despite its great looks, it fails to provide solid game balance, and it’s just too difficult to access many of its game modes.

Infinite Crisis’ distraught world would make for a beautiful comic book. Lore videos, hero introductions, and strong voice acting come together to create a great story.  Due to a tear in the multiverse, six universes blend together, which is how there can be multiple Batmans in the pool of available Champions. Each of the Batmans, Wonder Womans, Green Lanterns, and other characters have their own personality, so it’s fun seeing what they have to say to friends and enemies during in-game banter.

Destiny's Trials of Osiris Has a Neat Matchmaking Trick

Worried about getting rematched with a team that keeps stomping you in Destiny's upcoming Trials of Osiris PvP event? According to their live stream today, Bungie won't let that happen.

Though the live stream showed two teams duking it out match after match, that was apparently only to keep the stream moving. When Trials of Osiris actually begins, Bungie has put in a matchmaking fail-safe that will keep you and your team fighting different opponents every time.

Out of context it may not sound like a big deal, but every win and loss matters in Trials of Osiris, since each match plays directly into what kind of rewards you'll ultimately be eligible for. This system ensures that you won't find yourself on a one-way road to having your Trials of Osiris run ended prematurely.

Microsoft Expects Windows 10 to Be on 1 Billion Devices

During the Build 2015 keynote today, Microsoft's VP of operating systems Terry Myerson said the company's goal is to have Windows 10 on 1 billion devices.

Myerson said Android KitKat is currently on around half that many devices, while iOS is "less."

Windows 10 is built to work on every piece of hardware supported by Microsoft, from Windows Phone to PCs to its upcoming Hololens. The claim of 1 billion devices when put up against operating systems currently only running on mobile hardware is a bit of an apples-to-oranges comparison.

Currently iOS accounts for 23% of the smartphone market and 66% of the world's tablets. Overall Android activation has exceeded 900 million. Windows will get a boost from the simple fact that the OS covers so many different devices.

Batman: Arkham Knight’s Season Pass is Absurd

I don’t believe that the existence of DLC content will necessarily diminish the quality of the $60 version of Batman: Arkham Knight. After WB’s recent announcement of a season pass, it remains one of my most hotly anticipated games of 2015, and I intend to play the hell out of it. That said: what the hell is this?

For $40, Warner Bros and Rocksteady promise us the following:

“This season pass for Batman: Arkham Knight delivers new content every month for 6 months, featuring new story missions, more supervillains invading Gotham City, new legendary Batmobiles, advanced challenge maps, alternative character skins, and new drivable race tracks.”

Ending The Witcher 3 ‘With a Bang’

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the final Witcher game with Geralt of Rivia at center stage, and CDProjekt Red Senior Writer Jakub Szamałek told IGN, “we felt that we owed Geralt a proper goodbye, and decided to part ways with a boom.”

Szamałek continued, “I think good stories must have an ending. You cannot extend them indefinitely, and we felt that Geralt has had such an amazing adventure, and his saga is already so long and complex that this seemed like a good point to think about an appropriate finale for the story.”

Geralt “has reached the end of his journey,” but this doesn’t mean it’s the end of The Witcher universe in video games. “The Witcher universe is a very big place with a lot of NPCs, a lot of characters, a lot of places we haven’t shown yet,” Szamałek said. “So, we might return to it at some point…but we think that this is a good place to let Geralt enjoy his retirement and try something new."

AT-AT Rampages in ARMA 3 Star Wars Mod

ARMA 2 also previously received the Star Wars modding treatment. When Star Wars Battlefront launches later this year, players will be able to play as Boba Fett, Darth Vader and more. Check out our coverage of the upcoming title’s ships, villains and gadgets.

Check Out Arkham Knight's Newest Playable Characters

The latest trailer for the upcoming Batman: Arkham Knight is out, and this time Batman is not alone. If you haven't seen it, fire up the Batcomputer and take a look:

It's a pretty meaty trailer full cameos by some familiar faces in the Arkham universe. Below are major talking points and things you may have missed.

00:14 - Ignited Ideas

AK_Satorico

Arkham games are full of fun nods to the DC Universe, and Arkham Knight is no exception. The sign for a company called "Satorico" is seen on the right, along with a flame icon. This is a possible reference to DC villain Dr. Alex Satorius, aka Dr. Phosphorus - a man covered in so much radiation that he appears to be constantly on fire. While that doesn't mean a flaming super-villain is confirmed to be running around the streets of Gotham, it's a nice reference that ties the world of Arkham together.

The first three slots in a Silver pack are now "like a Bronze pack," and Gold packs now have a better chance of dropping "superior or distinguished items."

As for weapon tuning, the KRISS K10 has its start and end damage reduced to 33 and 8, respectively. The rate of fire for the RO933 has been upped to 850. Battle rifle ammo now does a minimum of 25 damage.

There's no creature that inspires both feelings of love and hate like the Treasure Goblin from Diablo. We love him when we manage to beat the living gold out of him, we hate him when he summons a portal and makes off with our loot. This Treasure Goblin from ThinkGeek, however, will never escape your grasp, or your desk, for that matter. Why? Well, he's plastic, and he's a bank, which giggles with demonic glee whenever you deposit your loose change. So weigh him down with your own personal gold (or copper, or nickel, he's not that picky) so he can't get away. That way you'll always have some vending machine money on hand!

How Wolfenstein: The Old Blood Continues to Shun Modern Shooter Trends

Wolfenstein 3D may be the granddaddy of the first-person shooter as we recognise it today but the relevance of Wolfenstein’s once-venerable name has faded over the decades. Today huge numbers of gamers flock to the likes of Call of Duty and Battlefield; these are the modern era’s shooters du jour. To many, Wolfenstein is a curiosity from another age.

Nonetheless, 2014’s Wolfenstein: The New Order arrived as an extremely timely antidote to today’s increasingly homogenised shooter set. Rather than a multiplayer-focussed experience with a brief, token single-player mode tacked on, The New Order looked to the likes of rich and lengthy solo shooters like Starbreeze’s The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay and The Darkness for inspiration. It’s little wonder considering MachineGames, the team behind The New Order, was founded by several key former members of Starbreeze.

Valve is removing the payment feature from the Skyrim workshop, according to an official Steam Community post, and is refunding money to users who bought a mod.

It's obvious now that this case is different.”

"To help you understand why we thought this was a good idea, our main goals were to allow mod makers the opportunity to work on their mods full time if they wanted to, and to encourage developers to provide better support to their mod communities," the post states. "We thought this would result in better mods for everyone, both free & paid. We wanted more great mods becoming great products, like Dota, Counter-strike, DayZ, and Killing Floor, and we wanted that to happen organically for any mod maker who wanted to take a shot at it."

Sony players will have several additional skins to choose from, should they choose to purchase the Simpsons pack. It's already available on Microsoft platforms for $3 USD, and starting Wednesday, PlayStation players will also have access to Principal Seymour Skinner, Groundskeeper Willie, the soul-sapping Dewey Largo and more.

Long Lost Text Adventure Game Recovered

A game called Wander, one of the earliest if not the first text adventure ever, has been recovered.

Wander was a mainframe interactive fiction by Peter Langston. Created in 1974, it pre-dates more well-known classics like Adventure (Colossal Cave).

It wasn't just a game, but a toolkit similar to modern text adventure systems like Inform 7. The original description refers to itself as "a tool for writing non-deterministic fantasy stories."

Arkham Knight Trailer Reveals New Mechanic

The latest Batman: Arkham Knight trailer debuted a new mechanic called Dual Play, which will let you switch, Grand Theft Auto 5-style, between Batman and his allies.

In the trailer, we see Batman, Nightwing, Robin, and Catwoman engaging in seamless, tag team-style combat with Arkham Knight's many foes.

Several other characters make appearances in the trailer too, including Oracle, Two-Face, Scarecrow, and Azrael.

While we don't get a look at anything particularly gruesome, Arkham Knight's darker tone is evident.

We first learned of Arkham Knight's M-rating, the first ever in the series, back in February, and were provided with some details of the game's more violent scenes in March.

Broken Age Soundtrack Releasing Digitally and on CD

Broken Age developer Double Fine announced a partnership with Sumthing Else Music Works to release the soundtrack to its two-part adventure game today. The soundtrack will be available digitally tomorrow, April 28, and will also be available on CD in June.

The soundtrack is composed by Peter McConnell, who also composed the soundtracks for two other Double Fine games - Psychonauts and Brütal Legend. He has also composed the soundtracks for classic LucasArts games like Grim Fandango and Monkey Island.

"I'm so excited at the release of the complete original soundtrack to Broken Age," Said McConnell. "It's been quite a musical journey, over two years in the making. I'm especially glad to have been able to work with such tremendous musicians as the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, The New Vocal String Quartet and the band, Clarinet Thing. They truly bring the music to life."

What Is Going on With the Business of Konami?

Konami stocks will no longer trade on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. The company still maintains a presence in both the London and Tokyo Stock Exchanges, but as of last Friday, April 24, it voluntarily delisted itself from the NYSE.

The low volume of Konami stocks traded on the NYSE is why Konami believes "the continued listing on the NYSE is not economically justified."

Voluntary delisting can be a part of an internal restructuring, and anyone who has been following Konami in the slightest knows there have been quite a few shakeups within the company. In March, Konami rebranded Kojima Productions to Konami Digital Productions. This spurred rumors that Hideo Kojima would leave Konami after the release of Metal Gear Solid V.

Over the course of DiRT Rally's development, Codemasters promises consistent free updates, including more cars, racing locations, and game modes.

While Codemasters is focusing on Steam Early Access for now, a console port is not out of the question.

TERA: Gunner Class Revealed

For its newest player class, TERA brings out the big guns. Like, really big. The Gunner, as it's called, can only be played by the lithe high elves and '80s glam queen-like Castanics, and in their hands they look a little like a locomotive caught in the branches of a sapling pine. They also pose an interesting question—when you can have guns this big and powerful in the world of Arborea, why even bother with the swords and recurve bows lugged around by the game's other classes?

Indeed, playing the Gunner feels a little like playing the Terminator in the world of Lord of the Rings. It's all focused on making big, bad things go boom, regardless of whether it's by pelting them with purple "mana missiles" or through an arc bomb that rolls along the ground like a bowling ball before exploding and unsettling all but the biggest "BAMs" (big-ass monsters). Fire at the ground with Rocket Jump, and boom, you go catapulting to safety.

Telepresence Robot Mimics Your Every Move Using the Oculus Rift

A team of researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a physical-virtual interface (PVI) by combining the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset and teleoperated robotics.

Dexterous Observational Roving Automaton, or DORA, is unlike most other telepresence robots on the market by offering greater and flexibility immersion within the environment. DORA’s swiveling head mimics the movements of the user’s head, allowing them to freely look around the environment without having to move a whole robotic rig. The user can also view the feed in 3D via the headset thanks to DORA’s dual cameras copying our stereoscopic vision.

Broken Age: Act 2 Review

Spoilers for Act 1 ahead. Head over here for our full Broken Age: Act 1 review.

Broken Age: Act 2 is a smart, fun, challenging cap to Double Fine’s Kickstarted adventure. Still just as gorgeous and well-written, Act 2 is nearly twice as long as its predecessor. It ups the ante with surprising new characters, intriguing story reveals, and some really ingenious puzzles for the most part. There are a few nagging challenges along the way, but nothing that really detracts from the fantastic adventure at hand.

Picking up right at Act 1’s phenomenal cliffhanger, a bulk of Act 2's charm is how it flips the first part’s script on its head. I really enjoyed how the theme of role reversal seeps through nearly every moment of Act 2. Exploring a decrepit Mog Chothra as Vella, and meeting the citizens of Meriloft as Shay shine new light on the events of the first half of the game. Controlling both characters as they come to terms with the realizations that they’ve been lied to for a bulk of their lives constantly provides hilarious, and often-times poignant moments. It's a well-written and surprisingly-mature story of growing up, dealing with the messes life throws at you, and ultimately coming out a better person.
