Episode 25: Ghosts In The Machine

Before we dive into the new releases, I have FINALLY experienced Diablo III and it's freaking AMAZING! I hated to miss launch day but I grabbed a copy over the weekend and got around to installing and playing last night. I haven't done much but I started off with a Witch Doctor named Deekae (same as my necromancer from WoW). I'll keep you posted as I explore more of the world of Sanctuary.

Now, onto the new stuff!

First up, and by far the BIGGEST release of the week, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier coming to Xbox360 and PS3. This time you'll be heading to Nigeria, Pakistan, Russia, and Norway. New features include "optical camo" that makes you invisible when you keep a low profile. They have also added various drones based on real world technology like the BigDog and quadrotor.

Next up, MIB: Alien Crisis hits Xbox360, PS3, and Wii this week. I'm not holding a lot of hope as this is a semi-movie adaptation. It's partly based on the movie but you play as some new agent they created for the game. 

The last hard disc of the week is Dragon's Dogma coming to Xbox360 and PS3. This is an action RPG where you a hero on a quest to kill the dragon who tore out his heart.

Available via download on PS3 this week is Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock and Sorcery. Doctor Who send the good doctor to the Eternity Clock (a planet that is a record of all things that have been, are, and will ever be) to save the Earth. Sorcery uses the PlaystationMove as your wand to cast spells.

Now on to other gaming news. Halo 4 is officially available for pre-order for $100. It comes with a boatload of bonus content like maps and weapons and skins and also has a 90 minute version of the upcoming live action series. South Park (the RPG based on the show) has been pushed back to a 2013 release. Diablo III had some major issues around launch time which lead to a terrible user score but those issues have been handled now.

And that about does it, as an added bonus, I'm going to start including a list of upcoming releases at the end of each blog post so you can be ready for what's coming. So that does it, I'll be playing Diablo III for a while so find me on there. Until next time, go out there and get your game on!
