This week marks the launch of Windows 8, on October 26, and with it comes the deployment of Xbox SmartGlass into the fray. Running on Windows phones and tablets, later-generation iOS devices, and Android smartphones, it’ll provide experiences… well, shown above. Sure, this video doesn’t cover GAMES at all, despite being labeled an XBOX product. [...]

All-State Mumbo Jumbo Melee Brawl Demo is Live

RurouniQ — Tue, 16 Oct 2012 19:19:37 +0000

For subscribers to PlayStation Plus, the Public Beta for Playstation All-Star Battle Royale is now live, with plans to go live for non-subscribers on October 23. Access will continue to be available until October 30. There’s just one problem I have with this. It’s not the fact that it’s clearly drawing concept from other fighting [...]

Pandaria: Best Expansion Ever?

RurouniQ — Tue, 02 Oct 2012 00:16:25 +0000

Mists of Pandaria has been out for a week now, and boy are my arms tired! But seriously folks, I’ve been playing so much, my arms have started to ache. So what’s the word on the internet about it? What is the general consensus, the reception, towards this newest of WoWs? The answer is: who [...]

THE PANDAS ARE COMING

RurouniQ — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 01:15:16 +0000

OMG CAN’T SLEEP PANDAS WILL GET ME. Anthropomorphic pandas haunt my dreams and my waking thoughts, steadily marching onward, never slowing in their approach. Their target is my very soul, my sense of being, and my instincts whisper to me that when their dreaded advance has reached its conclusion, I will be consumed, never to [...]

New Killer Instinct Coming?

RurouniQ — Tue, 18 Sep 2012 01:27:02 +0000

Hot damn. Here’s some unexpected news. Microsoft has announced today that they have renewed the trademark for Killer Instinct, a classic fighting-game franchise that once appeared on the SNES, N64, and arcade cabinets (I don’t count the Game Boy iteration). Though the previous versions appeared on Nintendo consoles, the games and intellectual property were developed [...]

Build-A-Borderlands 2 Character Now

RurouniQ — Mon, 10 Sep 2012 17:59:06 +0000

And it’s a hell of a lot cheaper than Build-A-Bear, let me tell you. As in, free. If you, like myself, are having trouble waiting for next week’s Borderlands 2 release to the point of being ill (I kid you not, I am currently fighting off a sinus infection), then you may find panacea in Gearbox’s [...]

Borderlands 2 Season Pass Incoming

RurouniQ — Mon, 03 Sep 2012 15:07:19 +0000

I’ve never really objected to the idea of DLC, as a concept. Publishers have a way of making my $60 investment last longer or more personalized, even if I have to pay a little more for it? Yeah, ok, sure. Day one DLC rankles my ire a bit, but I don’t even really object to [...]

WoW Pre-Pandaria Patch Hits, Just as Earthshattering

RurouniQ — Tue, 28 Aug 2012 14:31:25 +0000

The day has arrived, my friends. The pre-Mists of Pandaria patch for World of Warcraft lands today, and it’s a doozy. For some of you who left the game sometime in the past, these changes may be big enough to pull you back into the fold. Some of these changes may piss you off. Some [...]

Now THIS is How You Do an ARG

RurouniQ — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 18:19:28 +0000

THIS, folks, is how you do an ARG. Over the past few days, Valve has been teasing SOMETHING, and that something has been heavily leaning towards a new 3rd Faction for Team Fortress 2, possibly an all-robot faction. Some clues have been more subtle than others (note that on the teamfortress.com home page, the Scout, [...]
