The fact that it has been out in the arcades for quite a while helped Bandai Namco to tighten up the gameplay to the extreme like this kind of game really requires, but the visual doesn't look at all outdated. Tekken is back b


Gran Turismo Sport is definitely a polarizing game. Many might find it cold and impersonal, but that makes it feel like a perfectly engineered piece of precision machinery exactly like the cars it simula

As usual we encourage you to allow the pictures below load properly, since they're rather big files, and to avoid downloading them on mobile platforms if you're on limited data, since they'll eat it up rather fast.

According to the latest information broadcasted by Square Enix , PS4 Pro and PS4 render the game respectively at native 1080p resolution (1920×1080) and 1600 x 900. Considering that the difference between the two pixel counts isn't enormous, I did not expect it to be too prominent. Boy was I wrong.

The Biggert Shocker award goes to the game that really surprised us. Final Fantasy XV did. Considering that it has been delayed, you would expect it to be a bit rough around the edges, but it simply isn't.

Naval combat is absolutely fantastic. It's a mix of collaboration, tactical thinking and old plain guts. It definitely isn't limited to just shooting your cannons. The helmsman's prowess and the coordination of the men handling the angle of the sails to get the best out of the wind generate an extremely compelling gameplay mechanic.

As an animator first and foremost, there’s a lot you can’t help but want to leave in. But you’re not making a movie here – you’re making a game, and it has to be tight and responsive. The truest sign of a skilled game animator is their ability to make something great with the number of frames they’re given.


It's always difficult to choose a clear winner in the ocean of mobile games releasing every year in Japan, yet, Starly Girls stands out among other things due to the absolutely charming character des


**Giuseppe Nelva: The soundtrack has always been very important in NieR Automata Achievements|https://Nierautomatafans.com/ , and in fact you even held a concert a few months ago in Tokyo: what kind of inspiration and philosophy you you had while composing the music for NieR: Automata

All that said, Nier: Automata is looking to be as equally impressive as its parent games. This series shines and maybe releasing earlier in the year will garner the attention Nier: Automata deserves. This is no JRPG newcomer; these games have been there the whole time and stand up to the best of them.

Nier, which creative director Taro Yoko has stated is the direct follow-up to Drakengard 2, follows suit perfectly for what these games offer up. Nier might take place a thousand-plus years in the future, but that changes nothing. There could easily be a whole essay on how all the games are connected (there probably is), but that’s not what this article is about. The series is asking deep questions, questions that might not be as obvious at first. The series, for as wacky and bombastic as it can be, is a reflection on events taking place in our world and how "we" fit into that world. It flips over rocks that might be hiding something nasty and at other points opens doors most people never want to peer behind. Not everyone wants to look at these things, nor should they be forced to. For those who usually let curiosity get the best of them or are looking for a deeper understanding of something, it’s worth pulling back the veil.

There is a really popular show for instance, Game of Thrones, well Drakengard was dealing with all themes presented in GoT long before it was popular. This game has it all, incest, child abuse, sadism and other heavy themes. It also has dragons, which are dealt with in a more realistic way than GoT. Fans of fantasy know Dragons are almost god-like beings, hell, in Dark Souls they’re immortal…. getting back on topic though. This series is known for pushing boundaries’. Drakengard was the first of its kind, a game doing something different that few games, especially beat ‘em ups were approaching. The storytelling in Drakengard was astounding. Drakengard, convey's a sense of permanence of choice that games can still struggle with today. Not that every game must have a rigid backbone to it, that wouldn’t make video games fun. It’s understanding the way the story is being told though that allows for the praise this game series deserves. Long story short, Drakengard tells a story in its own way, also knowing how to end a game. The same can be said for Nier. Even both game’s sequel game’s manage to keep things interesting while remaining in the realm of the weird.

The game will release in Japan for PS4 on February 23rd, in North America on March 7th, and in Europe on March 10th, 2017. A PC version is also scheduled to come next year, but no release window has been announced for that one.

I made this concept art of an abandoned city by painting over a screenshot of the area as it looked in the unfinished game. Environmental concept art like this serves as a solid guideline for the team that makes all the environmental models. I originally painted this cityscape with much darker colors – though the weather was always pretty nice! In the end, I decided that it didn’t match the overall feeling of NieR: Automata very well, so I brightened it up to what you see here.
