The Crew Announced For Xbox 360, not PS3
Ubisoft’s upcoming racing game The Crew is not a next gen and PC exclusive. The developer mentioned that the title is now also headed to Xbox 360, however there was no mention of the PS3 or Wii U versions. The Crew launches November 11 for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS4, and PC. As for why this decision was taken by Ubisoft in bringing the game to a last-generation console, the publisher says it’s all about meeting gamers where they are, which honestly doesn’t make too much sense as PS3 and Wii U users weren’t accounted for. “It’s Ubisoft’s objective to continue to meet the needs of consumers who have not yet made the move to the new console generation,” Ubisoft marketing executive Tony Key said. “The Crew was originally built for the new gene...

Forza Horizon 2 will let you Race against a Steam Train!
Forza Horizon 2 may contain all sorts of lovely dynamic weather effects and run at 1080p, but that’s small change compared to the fact you can race against a Steam Train in the game. Yes. A train. The ability to race a locomotive comes into play during ‘showcase races’ which is the racer’s version of challenge races. In short, for this particular instance, players will need to get to the finish before the Steam Train. There’s also a video posted below, which shows off loads of speed in an interesting mix of weather patterns off the coast of Italy. Froza Horizon 2 is out on September 30 for Xbox 360 and Xbox One, and according to developer Playground Games, the racer doesn’t contain lobbies and players can form their own clubs with up to 1,000 players.

Kinect is your backseat driver in Forza Horizon 2
Forza Horizon 2’s Creative director Ralph Fulton revealed that the game will feature a “digital personal assistant”, ANNA, who has Something To Do with Kinect. Voice controls for steering? Car doorlocks with retina scanners? The ability to detect when you’re zoning out, and activate the autopilot just before you plough into a 15th century chapel? Time will tell. Forza Horizon 2’s massive new world could last you “over 100 hours”. ANNA is Forza Horizon 2’s equivalent of a GPS system, and will allow you to quickly set waypoints on the map and find nearby events.

Thief lands on your console full of potential, but loses the plot midway
We were really excited with the build-up to this game and we’re a bit let down with the fact that Thief is a game that fails to step into the shoes of its predecessor in some ways. It is a game that lands on your console full of potential, but loses its steam midway. There are good things about this game, and they bear mentioning.

So all you guys who have love stealth games, you should be excited 🙂 A visual update has been made which makes the game look wonderful when it’s running, though we have not checked out the first version of the game since it was release quite a long time back. The movement of the main character Garret, looks and feels great, and he ...
