Creative Assembly has a good video-labeling policy for Total War: Warhammer

Or just watch this grand battle Alongside this non-gameplay video forTotal War: Warhammer, Creative Assembly has explained how it’s going to label promotional materials for the strategy game going forward.

Crusader No Remorse: DNF Duel warrior causing chaos with infinite combo

Striking down with great vengeance and furious anger Well, I called it — back when I reviewed Nexon’s awesomely fun fighterDNF Duelearlier this week, I distinctly noted that I expected 20 infinite combos to drop within week one, and it seems that a whole host of ’em were found by Day Two, with the holy warrior Crusader being the worst offender. In videos spreading throughout the FGC like wildfire, the gospel-lovin’ bone-breaker has demonstrated his utterly ridiculous touch-of-death combo, one that can essentially be repeated until the opponent is no more, with no window to break (hence “infinite”)....

Dead Rising 4: Frank’s Big Package makes a 50-year-old man cosplay to survive

Returning to the West Dead Risingwas one of my favorite franchises to debut during the last console generation, and the one launch game I thought best made the case for upgrading to an HD system. The game’s main draw, having tons of interactive zombies on screen at once, was something that simply couldn’t be done on earlier hardware. The extra power allowed nearly everything in the game to be used as a weapon, and most items worked just about as well as you’d expect their real-world counterparts to....

God of War III is too violent for the Internet, Sony says

The Internet is home to videos where a man shatters a mason jar inside his own rectum, and yet Sony has the nerve to tell us thatGod of War IIIis too extremefor the Internet. Unless Kratos defecates into a cup and starts eating it while fisting the Numa Numa guy, I think Sony is taking the piss. Nevertheless, Sony is claiming that current game images are simply too graphic for any gaming news site to post, thanks in part to new technology that puts independent intestines inside of character models, allowing them to freely spill everywhere once Kratos disembowels them....
