While gaming's biggest scares can be found in established horror franchises like Resident Evil and Silent Hill , there are plenty of non-horror games with moments that will send chills down players' spines. Sometimes these games have some horror undertones to begin with, and other times they are games that are actually made with children in m

With Microsoft keeping quiet on the game in question, your guess is as good as ours. But if Halo is on display at E3 in any shape or form, you can bet that we'll be just as excited as you to hear about

Every Fable game has taken place, in one way or another, on the continent of Albion, a sort-of fairytale re-imagining of the United Kingdom, the place where original Fable developer Lionhead Games was based. Albion is also likely a reference to " Avalon ," a mythical island from British legend where, among other things, the sword Excalibur was for

Marking the series' first foray into the next generation of games, Timesplitters 4 would be able to capitalize on the current hardware in order to expand on everything that made the earlier games so memorable. The series has always focused on familiar, arcade gameplay and this installment should be no different. With the increased memory of current consoles, this would mean even larger, more diverse worlds to explore, more imaginative characters to interact with and play as, and in keeping with what the series is best known for, an even more frantic multiplayer experie

As with the dog from Fable II , The Journey's designers clearly want players to emotionally invest in Seren. Gabriel can brush her, feed her apples, and occasionally has to tend to her injuries - players mime the motion for pulling arrows from her flesh, then use the magic of the gauntlets to heal the gaping wound left behind. For that matter, Seren is rendered beautifully: shiny coat with distinct hair, attentive, believably alive eyes - but it's all for nothing. She has no agency, no obvious personality or bearing on events. Seren's defining characteristic is that she's a pain in the ass to control, and dramatic story points that hinge on her fall flat as a result. Gabriel may care deeply about Seren, but the player never d

After some assumed that the game had been quietly killed by LucasArts, only a year ago new evidence surfaced that led us to believe that while excitement may have died down, an announcement at last year's E3 was possible. Alas, nothing was announced, and fans of large-scale combat with lightsabers tasted disappointment yet again (thanks, Force Unleashed

Surprisingly enough, the simple driving segments of the game fare worse than the shooting gallery portions. It should be easy. Players have two virtual reigns, left and right. Pull on the left reign and let the right go slack to steer left, reverse that to steer right. Regardless, guiding Seren along Albion's roads is, at best, a haphazard endeavor. At worst, it's a never ending exercise in course and speed correction - and it makes up a major portion of The Journey's playt

While the highly anticipated Elden Ring from FromSoftware will be missing the show, there are still plenty of games to look forward to. Here's a handy list with the biggest Adventure Games Updates to look forward to, along with events and streams related to t

Fifteen years later, after being integrated into basically every kind of video game, the concept of a simple morality system has gone out of style. While some games have been experimenting with a more complex system, such as The Witcher 3 's Geralt being an influential but neutral force in the world, it would be a benefit to Fable 4 to have a similarly deep and complex morality system that goes beyond angel wings and ho

Further exploration of Andale reveals that the "strange meat" its townspeople eat is actually human flesh, and that the town is run by inbred cannibals. Upon making this startling discovery, players are then attacked by the people of Andale, unless they have the Cannibal perk, in which case they are accepted by the twisted community as one of their

Tokyo Game Show 2019 is starting right now at Makuhari Messe in Tokyo, going from September 12 to 15. Most publishers revealed their definitive schedules these past few days, outlining the various streams and stage events happen

According to an Xbox Live API Leak last year, an unnamed UK-based studio was working on an action RPG with the codename of "Wisdom." While internal titles are rarely used upon release, Wisdom is interesting in that it seems to be a reference to the magic system in Fable . Since the Fable games have always been about the passage of time as well, most famously the in prison sequence of Fable 2 , a story that spans a character's entire life could fittingly be titled Fable: Wisd

There's a lot of weird stuff in Fallout 3 's Capital Wasteland, but perhaps the most disturbing place players can come across is the small town of Andale. Andale's residents seem like normal citizens living in post-apocalyptic Washington, but after speaking with Old Man Harris, it's clear the town is harboring a dark sec
