PAX East 2016: Kill Or Be Killed In Dead By Daylight
Half-Life was undeniably one of Valve's greatest successes , introducing players to the crowbar-wielding Gordon Freeman and Black Mesa, the research facility where he worked. A sequel seemed like it was inevitable to capitalize on the success of the first SLG game beginner guide, and thus began the troubled development of Half-Life
The second game brought back the same protagonist, Gordon Freeman, who awakens 20 years after the events of the first title, having to save Earth from what Black Mesa unleashed. It was seen as a definite improvement on the first, but the development process that created it wasn't exactly painless. Valve spent half a decade creating prototypes and outlines before scrapping and cutting content, resulting in a more delayed game than fans expec

The phrase ‘development hell’ is one that is likely to send shivers down the spines of gamers everywhere. When games face severe delays during the development process with no finite end date in sight, it is often a death knell, resulting in the cancelation of some very ambitious proje
The first Outlast successfully translated the found footage horror genre to video game form, and Outlast 2 delivers a similar, yet arguably even scarier, experience. Outlast 2 changes the setting from a mental asylum to rural Arizona, where players are chased down by insane cult members. Its dark religious themes help to make Outlast 2 especially unnerving, and while the first half is a bit slow, the second half is a dizzying rollercoaster of shocking scenes and moments that will be drilled into the minds of anyone brave enough to play through
After the franchise went with a more action-oriented approach for a few entries, it was clear that the Resident Evil series needed to get back to its roots. Capcom did exactly that with Resident Evil 7 , delivering an overwhelming survival-horror experience full of exploration, deadly traps, and horrific monsters for players to contend with. Especially brave players can even play through the entire game with PlayStation VR , transporting them directly into the hellish world of the Baker family plantation and all the terrors that come with
March and April may not hold as many options as previous months, but there are still quite a few good picks available. Suits returns to USA; Whose Line Is It Anyway? proves what works, works (even on the CW); PBS finally premieres the BBC mini-series Mr. Selfridge starring Jeremy Piven; Orphan Black returns to BBC America; and Game of Thrones season 4 premieres… at some po
Though the game is played in third-person view for survivors, you’ll play in first-person as the killer. Côté explained that the shift here is about focus. As a survivor, you’re focused on keeping an eye out for the killer. When you’re fixing a generator, you can spin the camera around to make sure he’s not sneaking up on you. If he does, though, you’ll be able to see a red glow wash over the immediate area behind your character. Not only does a third-person camera divorce you from the action so you get the same sympathetic feeling you’d get watching the victims of a slasher flick, but the pulled-out view offers a tactical advantage you sorely need as a survivor. As the killer, you don’t need the advantage. The first-person perspective gives you tunnel vision as you hunt your targets, which doesn’t just make the action more personal; it effectively reduces your vision cone and makes it easier for the survivors to escape. This led to incredibly close calls during my round as a survivor when I managed to lose the pursuing killer for the briefest of moments, then dodge into a cabinet and watch him pass by. When I played as the killer though, that same situation in reverse made it crystal clear how important it is as a survivor to slow down and not leave a trail as I threw open the cabinet doors and wrenched the terrified survivor out.
The holidays are now over, and 2014 is upon us, and with it comes a television premiere/return schedule even more complicated than in the fall. As old and new favorites return from break, even more old and new shows will begin to premiere, and it will be up to you to decide what to and, more importantly, what not to wa
On top of that, some of Comic-Con's fan-favorite TV series have been upgraded from the hallowed Ballroom 20, and will now be gracing the 5,000-seat Hall H. So, this year you won’t be able to simply sit in one room all day to catch many of the major television events has to offer at Comic-
Originally announced in 2020 and forecast for release in 2021, the game went dark for Mail.Bluebook-Directory.com long enough for fans to worry it had met its end. An announcement from Paradox finally admitted they had taken the project away from Hardsuit Labs, and that its development would be undertaken by a different studio. After a few more years of radio silence, fans gave up hope until another announcement in September 2023 proved that the game has awoken from torpor and will release in 2
