LEGO Games That Will Never Be (But Should)

by David Stonecipher on March 30, 2012 at 10:36 pm

LEGOs simply never go out of style.  Most people who have ever played with the little plastic building blocks will always keep a special place in their heart for these simple toys.  Many fans of gaming are also fans of LEGOs, and this is more apparent now than ever before due to the hugely successfullyseries of LEGO video games based upon staples of pop culture such as Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Harry Potter.

Allowing gamers to combine two of their most beloved hobbies to recreate their favorite movie scenes has become big business.  What if the LEGO games borrowed more from hit video game franchises rather than movies however. such as the Halo LEGO lines that now exist.  Well, that was the inspiration behind these LEGO minifigs that will likely never be.

‘Mass Effect 4′ will be developed by a different studio with a new engine

by David Stonecipher on November 15, 2012 at 12:04 am

Bioware announced on Monday that the next “Mass Effect” title won’t be developed by their Edmonton based studio as all previous games of the franchise have been. Instead, Bioware Montreal will be taking over control as the new development team for the developer’s hit science fiction epic. Bioware’s Montreal studio isn’t unfamiliar with the space RPG series, as they are the team responsible for the “Mass Effect 3’ multiplayer mode as well as many of the game’s cutscenes.  The studio head in charge of the next “Mass Effect”, Yanick Roy, had the following to say.

The other thing I can tell you is that, while it will be very respectful of the heritage built over the course of the first three games, with the original trilogy now concluded and the switch over to a new engine, we are exploring new directions, both on the gameplay and story fronts. You can still expect the pillars the franchise is known for to be fully intact though, including diverse alien races, a huge galaxy to explore, and of course rich, cinematic storytelling.

Another ‘Borderlands 2′ DLC pack coming by year’s end

by David Stonecipher on November 11, 2012 at 4:37 am

Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software, confirmed that the next “Borderlands 2” DLC will be releasing by the end of this year. DLC for the game has releases at a steady pace since the title’s September release.  Another add-on releasing before the new year leaves the add-on less than two months left in this year to come out in, meaning fans will likely see the release of the game’s next downloadable content next month. It isn’t clear whether this new coming DLC will be a part of the “Borderlands 2” season pass or not, but Pitchford stated that details on the DLC will come soon. Later this morning he went on to tweet that a new DLC will come before another character class for the game, confirming that the next “Borderlands 2” add-on will not be the game’s sixth playable class.
