The 10 Best Video Game Trailers of 2016

Besides the games Nintendo has already announced for E3, fans should be able to expect some surprise game announcements, in addition to new looks at previously revealed Switch titles like Yoshi and maybe even Metroid Prime

The ARK 2 reveal trailer is a visual marvel , and there’s a lot going on at any given point. It’s very possible that there were some dinosaurs shown that were missed here, and there are some that couldn’t be identified with what was shown. Those players that fancy themselves dinosaur experts should also take the time to comb through the trailer and see if there are any other dinosaurs that were confirmed for the game at its rev

The Omen trailer introduces players to the many wonders of the Final Fantasy 15 world, including the game’s incredible combat and storyline. All-in-all, it’s a powerful trailer that feels every bit like Final Fantasy should on current-gen conso

E3 2018 is right around the corner, and it’s set to be one of the most stacked years for the show yet. There are a number of high profile, blockbuster releases already confirmed for the show, and when one combines those with the surprises that are no doubt in store, it’s clear that this year’s E3 is going to be h

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is a game that bleeds with interactive lore, with players picking up books about Argonian erotica or backstories on different cities. The Witcher, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Cyberpunk 2077, all have in-game notes to find that add even more information of the world to your lore memory bank. But with Fable, if memory serves me correctly, the lore was tucked away on an external official website rather than available in-g

The daunting task of giving them classic they wanted was left up to Peter Molyneux and his team, and the task may have not have seemed that difficult for them. The original Fable presented an amazing amount of detail to the world, but it simply seemed to fall short on a few key areas. All they had to do this time around was expand on the good and improve on these problems and they would have a game etched into the upper echelon of the new generation.

Fable 2 and 3 were great games for many reasons, but they were also great games because of the good boy you get to have at your side throughout. Having the woofy little pupper helping you out in your Adventure games Treasure Maps to locate treasures and defend you in battle made it feel great to have a dog. And with the gaming industry’s obsession with petting random dogs in game worlds, why not give players the chance to pet their own companion at any given t

For those that didn’t see the ARK 2 trailer at The Game Awards, it is looking to be a more story oriented game. Vin Diesel leads his tribe through a pre-historic jungle before they are attacked by what seems to be a rival tribe. While fighting them off, and unexpected guest shows up and makes things more complicated. In the ensuing chase scene, Vin Diesel and a young child run past several other types of dinosaurs, all of which can be assumed to be in the final game. Naturally, anything could change between now and teh game’s release so technically nothing is confirmed, but it’s a safe bet that these dinos will make the

From a technical standpoint, the graphics and music are both top notch. The games only real negative in this category is that, more often than not, combat and controlling the character can feel a bit detached and clunky. While combat itself is rewarding, with the ability to switch between melee, magic, and ranged almost instantaneously to keep bad guys on their toes, actually controlling your character can be a frustrating occurrence. You will be plagued by the occasional cheap death, but thanks to not actually being able to die, you won’t have to worry about losing anything more than some experience points if you bite off more than you can chew. In the end, your enjoyment of Fable II will hinge on what is important to you in this type of game. If you are looking for an engrossing story with loveable characters, this might not please you. However, if you are looking for an impressive gameplay experience with tons of replayability, I could not recommend Fable II more. While it may have, once again, fallen short of being a classic, it is a large improvement over the first game despite its numerous weak points.

When you do eventually decide to stop snickering over the fact you have to purchase condoms in order to prevent a coinpurse-draining pregnancy in any of your wives (or to avoid nasty STDs from Albion’s ladies of the night), you will be happy to learn that the Quests in this game are varied and entertaining. Even the simplest quest will occasionally blindside you with a deeply profound choice. This is where the morality system really shines, but some would say it is unbalanced. To become a truly evil character you need not leave the first town you are set down in, but to actually max out as a good character will take you a significant amount of hours. To me, unlike the unbalanced economy, the ease of being an evil character and the difficulty of being a good character are as realistic as it can be. It is much easier to rob and steal than it is to take daunting quests and help improve the world you live in. It is up to you to decide whether you will take the instant gratification and ease of an evil character or the more rewarding and difficult path of a pillar of heroism in the society. The quests in Fable II embrace this fact and, while not giving you enough overtly good options, make the game incredibly replayable. You will never, ever be at a loss for something to kill time with in Albion.
