Adult Swim has another hit web game on its hands with Escape from Puppy Death Factory. It's essentially a tribute to Metroid ... with, y'know, puppies. Just wait until you see the ship -- it's priceless. The twist is that you...

StreumOnStudio’s Source-driven shooter E.Y.E may have a ludicrous name, but this cyberpunk-flavored shooter with roleplaying features might be a surprising little indie hit. We have two new trailers for the game (yanke...

What does this game remind you of? In name and looks I know it reminds me of something, but I can't quite put my finger on it. There's this blend of Fantasy and sci-fi, a dynamic battle system, magic spells, flying ships and...

Aeria Games today launched its largest content update ever for free-to-play MMORPG Eden Eternal. The update does indeed boast a sizable list of features. The most significant change is that the game's level cap is being incre...

The last time we really saw anything of SCE London's Eight Days was in 2006 with a trailer. Last week heard really heard about it, the game was "on hold," potentially even canned completely. Whether or not we'll ever see the...

El Shaddai is not Spanish for "the Shaddai." In fact, Latin America may be one of the only regions not represented by El Shaddai in some way. The game features British and American voice actors (including at least one Harry P...

Ninja Theory's Tameem Antoniades has stated that a sequel for Enslaved is not in production, even though it "should" have been. Seemingly quite unhappy that last year's excellent game sold poorly, he has revealed that th...

Cave's first iPad 2 title is the high-definition version of classic shooter Espgaluda II. Notice I said iPad 2 -- Apple's second tablet is literally twice as good as the original iPad. That old, bubble-backed thing woul...

I haven't made a final decision as to what my favorite game at E3 2012 is yet, but Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion for the 3DS is right up there. When DreamRift's game was announced a couple of months ago, I was shocked. Inste...

Capcom didn't bring their Lost Planet spin-off to E3, but it hasn't taken them long to get the cel-shaded third-person shooter back on our radar. The publisher has revealed the setup for the title's plot and the motivati...

Part of the reason why I enjoy indie gaming so much is because of the kinds of subjects that their stories can explore, as well as the worlds that they can create. Which is why the familiar, yet ominous w...

Shoot-em-up enthusiasts hold an odd position in 2012. The best of the genre is behind us, immortalized in the coin-op perfection of Eighting, Toaplan, and Seibu Kaihatsu games, and CAVE is always there to supply us with on...

I'm not a bad man. Sure, I might rule over billions of miserable souls with an iron fist. I confess that my greatest dream is to conquer and enslave the entire galaxy. I admit that when asked who my greatest heroes are, I lis...

In speaking with BeefJack, developer thechineseroom has shared new details and screenshots from the spiritual successor to its first-person adventure title Dear Esther. Conceptually, creative director Dan Pinchbeck feels that...

Yeah, I know. Weird, right? I got a chance to play Expendables 2: The Videogame during San Diego Comic-Con, and found it actually really fun. It's a simple, yet over-the-top shooter that embraces the absurdity of the Expenda...

After 13 years, EverQuest is still getting updates. I'd be more amazed if I hadn't written about another update at the beginning of the year. It's looking spry for its age. Its players are also getting a new wardrobe -- ...

Looks like it's that time again, kids! Time for another indie bundle to tempt your wallet and Steam account. Some of Britain's most successful independent game developers have come together in a show of jolly-good cooperation...

When I first saw End of Nations last year, I was one part intrigued, one part skeptical, and all together hoping that the promise of a massively multiplayer real-time strategy game would pan out. Since then, we at Destructoid...

I was already pretty close to all-in after learning of the concept behind Capcom's Lost Planet spin-off E.X. Troopers. The idea was to take the snowy and fairly serious world and soften it up a bit with cell shading and pink-...

I never tire of shooting giant bugs, so I was thrilled to see D3 publisher with not one, but two EDF titles on the Tokyo Game Show floor. Earth Defense Forces 3 Portable is port of the game we know as Earth Defense ...

There's a new Earth Defense Force game on its way, recently announced by D3 Publisher and Sandlot, and there are few things here at Tokyo Game Show that I was more excited to see. Here on the show floor, the Xbox 360 version...

With a new DLC pack coming out for Skyrim, comes more pestering. Recently with the advent of Hearthfire on the PC, and thus, past 360 exclusivity, patient PS3 Skyrim fans want to know, once again, when their system of choice ...

The first fifteen minutes of most games give you a good idea of everything that lies ahead. After going through the first two hours of Harvey’s New Eyes, I got the gist of what things were to come. So, this is basica...

The fall of Communism and the break up of the Soviet Union was undoubtedly one of the most important events in the 20th century, and the culmination of the devastating Cold War. Lasting around 50 years, the world was witness ...

As someone who would really like to see the space-combat genre revitalized, it's been neat to see people like Chris Roberts of Star Citizen and now David Braben of Elite: Dangerous find success on Kickstarter. If anyone can p...

When Euro Truck Simulator 2 was first brought to my attention, I'll admit I thought the attraction had to be based in irony. To wake up one morning and find the gaming community is going crazy over a trucking sim is unusual e...

Atlus has unveiled yet another class from its upcoming dungeon crawler Etrian Odyssey IV. Essentially the game's mage-type, these fearsome spellcasters channel the elements into powerful magical attacks to defeat their ...

We heard about Ecolibrium back in September, though this free application for PlayStation Vita is only now available in North America. As the name suggests, this is all about putting together a balanced ecosystem that will a...

Back in November 2012, we got a short look at some early footage from the indie adventure title Ether One. We've now got our hands on a more full-length trailer that shows there's a lot more going on in the game than was evi...

A few days ago, we learned about Era's Adventures 3D, a new Android game that stars an unlicensed character model of Mario's faithful mount Yoshi. It sounds incredibly ballsy that anyone would pull such a stunt and not antici...

We've been given the heads up that Earth Defense Force 2017 Portable will be getting a temporary price reduction through April 2, 2013. While the original price is something I absolutely would have paid if I owned a PlayStati...

If there are two things I love, they are Terraria, and outer space. So naturally, I have been waiting impatiently for every bit of news about Starbound. However, it seems that Handyman Studios may be beating Chucklefish to t...

Here we have a video describing the capabilities of a whole new bug-crushing addition to the Earth Defense Force 2025 roster of unit types, which I believe is called the "Fencer," based on the trailer. The name's a bit ...

NIS America has partnered with Atlus to bring Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan to Europe this summer. This a-maze-ing dungeon crawler is too good to be missed by our friends on the other side of the pond, so our h...
