Episode 83: To Infinity... and Sequels!

Good morning fellow gamers. Sadly not much to report on from my end, still getting settled into the new place so gaming time has been short but I'm very close to  finishing Tomb Raider and after that I think I want to dive into Defiance but I also want to play Arkham City and Bioshock: Infinite so it'll be a tough decision to make.

Anywho, on to what's new...

Splinter Cell: Blacklist hits Xbox360, PS3, Wii U, and PC this week. It's the 6th in the series and Sam Fisher is back to prevent a terrorist group from attacking US targets on their "blacklist". A new feature allows multiple targeting to take out a group on the run.



Saints Row IV comes to Xbox360, PS3, and PC this week. If you've never played a Saints Row game they are similar to Grand Theft Auto in gameplay but much more silly and over the top. In this game you play as the gang leader again who is now also president of the USA... and your fighting aliens. And there's a Dub Step Gun.



Disney Infinity comes out on Xbox360, Wii, and Wii U this week. This is a device you connect to your console then instead of games, you purchase collectible figurines that you put on the device to play as different Disney characters in their worlds or one you create yourself. 3DS, iPad app, and PC version coming in October.



The Bureau: XCOM Declassified comes to Xbox360, PS3, and PC this week. It's the second rebooted game in the XCOM franchise You play as an FBI agent in 1962 trying to stop an alien invasion.



And there you have it, some stealthy spy action, some good crazy fun, a new concept for kid's games, and a remade fan favorite. One of the nice things about the end of summer is that the gaming crop is filling back out. Until next week, get out there and get your game on!
