So this was a real challenge for me but I like how it turned out! Josie, in all her golden glory.
Shadow of the Colossus Meets DayZ?
I very rarely write about Kickstarter games on here, but when Sophia posted about it I knew I had too. This ambitious project is trying to combine game play from some of my favourite games Shadow of the Colossus, Deus Ex, DayZ, and BloodBorne.
Prey for the Gods promises battles with giants, a survival system with a day/night cycle, tight BloodBorne style controls, and a frozen wasteland to explore. You can check out all the information and some early game play videos / screenshots over on Kickstarter. They’re currently sitting at just over 100k of a 300k goal with 29 days left of the campaign.
(This isn’t an ad, I just think it looks really cool)
Looks interesting! - Stacey
The true Pokemon Go experience.
Gone Home (2013)
You know that feeling, where the first moment you see someone it’s like they have a big gold star around them, and you have to get to know them? Well, there’s this girl …
those shopping moments…
The Playstation Store has a bunch of Square Enix games on sale this week–including Parasite Eve! The PS Classic is now $2.99. I will champion Parasite Eve forever, so I hope some of you take advantage of this sale to try it out. - Stacey
It’s on sale again! Along with a staggering number of other Square Enix games. Check it out on the Playstation Store. - Stacey
While the games might be taking a break this year, a new Assassin’s Creed comic series is coming in September. The comics, Last Descendants: Locus, serves as a tie-in for the upcoming YA book series also titled Last Descendants. Surprisingly, Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate’s Evie and Henry are all over the covers after they were absent from most of the actual game’s marketing.
Based on the description at Comics Alliance, the series seems to follow an new character named Tommy with no mention of Evie and Henry, but I love these covers. You can read more about the upcoming series at Comics Alliance. - Stacey
Finally, a VR experience I want to try. More information about the hack is available in Japanese at Kougaku-Navi - Stacey
