Among The Sleep invites you into the mind and body of a two year old child. After being put to bed one evening, mysterious things start to happen. Being played in first person, the game let its players immerse themselves in a child's limitless imagination. This is a perspective we all have a distant familiarity with, but few can clearly remember what it felt like. In the borderland between dream and reality, surreal creatures and diverse environments will present you with both physical and mental obstacles that challenge your creativity. Among The Sleep is set for release on PC & MAC next year, but you can bask in some of its glory already, by downloading the wallpape…

Paradox Interactive and Arrowhead Game Studios have begun to realize that Magicka, their award-deserving four-player spell-em-up, presents several opportunities for in-game malice. While Magicka is ostensibly a co-op title, there are plenty of players out there who have realized that not every death at the hands of their fellow wizards is necessarily accidental. In response, Paradox Interactive is proud to announce The Other Side of the Coin, a new DLC adventure developed in partnership with Pieces Interactive, allowing players to take on the role of the bad guys. Well, the deliberately bad guys, anyway. Would-be villains will take on the role of Alucart the Vampire as he…

So, I like RPGs. I like JRPGs and I like WRPGs. What I don't like is that both of them have fallen into a rut and would rather adhere to tradition than innovate in their respective genres. The answer isn't to try to bring back oldschool games, because they went out of fashion for a reason. Because big companies aren't pushing forward with making innovative RPGs, I decided I would make one myself. You can see the Kickstarter here. Rather than trying to look to the past, we decided to start from scratch and throw out everything that has been done to death and makes RPGs repetitive - random encounters, grinding, silent protagonists, mystical princesses, ancient evils, etc. I…

Thought it might be an idea to have a thread where we can talk about Diablo 3 items? Someplace to post items that maybe you don't want/need that other gamercide players might. No worries if someone wants/needs to do other things with their items. I'll start it off with the following request. I'm looking for a nice 2H crossbow for my DH. I'm lvl 15 and have been using the same 'blue' 1h crossbow since lvl 6. Thanks guys. edit - I'll list my "don't need" items later.

The Witcher 2 developer CDProjekt is looking for new staff to work on two new RPGs in development at the studio. is apparently an "RPG in a dark fantasy world", with a little sword icon next to it. The other is said to be an "RPG in a brand new setting", and has a gun icon next to it - hinting at a more modern setting. "Both are story-driven RPG games for mature players," says the developer. CDProjekt describes the "RPG in a brand new setting" as "a vast RPG" in an "entirely new and different IP" - somewhat suggesting that the other game is not (The Witcher 3, you say?). "We're looking for people who would rather work on an entirely new and different IP - a vast RPG for…

So what's the info on the rpg? The videos I've seen indicate its a graphically good looking game. Lots of detail on the armors and such. However, its hard to get a straigh-line on this game since I don't see too much info about it. Releases for all platforms on 5/15. edit - found this video about combat - realtime during combat and inventory management. You can slow-down time, but never stop it. http://www.ign.com/v...bat-walkthrough

So the Space Quest creators did end up going the kickstarter route to fund their SpaceVenture. Here's the link http://www.kickstart...rs-of-space-que One thing they're doing different is releasing a demo every 100k tier they meet. Not sure if this is after the 500k or on the road to 100k.

Bout time they announced this.

The last game that American McGee's studio, Spicy Horse, released was Alice: Madness Returns. It looks like their next project will follow that lead, taking a heroine from a classic children's story and twisting it just a bit. This time, Red Riding Hood is up for the American McGee treatment. Akaneiro: Demon Hunters takes the tale and reimagines it in Japan during the Edo period. Spicy Horse has released a few images on its Twitter feed and Facebook page, but actual game details are still a ways away. We know that it's an action RPG, and judging from the image featured on the game's site (above) not to mention the title itself, Ms. Hood will be joined by a few deadly pals…

So I picked up the collection when it was on sale last weekend(the original, warband, and with fire and sword). I've sunk 27 hours into it so far....just kinda, been addicted to it(I finally got my first castle today!). Anyone else play any of them?

Releases tomorrow for PC.

We are very proud to present the debut trailer for Reset. Everything you see in the trailer is straight from the in-game engine, no up-ressed textures, geometry or effects. What you see is what you will get. Except hopefully a little bit better since we’re not even in alpha yet. This is however a big milestone for us, and we are going to be concentrating more on the gameplay side of things next. Ladies and gentlemen, Theory Interactive presents, Reset Debut trailer. http://reset-game.net/

http://www.shacknews...-all-your-games This is something that for some reason has never crossed my mind when buying games on Steam. I would flip if my account was banned. It's bad enough I don't actually own a physical copy of my games. This is defintiely something I'll think about before purchasing games in the future.
