    [ATTACH=CONFIG]13183[/ATTACH]
    Two games with vastly different genres hit the gaming world today. These are none other than Injustice 2 from NetherRealm and The Surge by Deck13. Injustice 2 is a fighting game with superheroes and villains.
    Injustice 2 continues the story set in motion in Injustice: Gods Among Us, beginning in a fractured universe where bonds are broken and every alliance is thrown into war. Batman and his allies work towards putting the pieces of society back together, but struggle against those who would restore Superman’s Regime. In the midst of this chaos, a new threat appears that will put Earth’s very existence at risk. Players will decide where their loyalties lie and have the ability to personalize iconic DC characters with unique and powerful gear earned throughout the game.

    Each of the dozens of playable DC characters in Injustice 2 has its own unique play style and roster of special moves. Regardless of the outcome, each battle brings the opportunity to earn new gear and abilities. As participants progress, they will earn new items from common gear with useful gameplay stat augments, to rare pieces that add larger special moves and abilities. Players will be able to effect more change and customization to their characters with every piece of gear that is earned, both in terms of visual cosmetic updates and changes to their combat style and character abilities.

    Injustice 2 also features an all new Multiverse Mode, offering players a whole world beyond the game’s story campaign and the opportunity to take part in a variety of uniquely themed challenges to earn additional rewards. Each different Multiverse in Injustice 2 has its own story and modifiers that change various aspects about how the game is played. As players climb the ladder, the challenges will increase, as will the rewards. Multiverses are constantly evolving and changing to provide players with new opportunities to grow their characters, earn new gear and conquer bigger challenges.

    There are three different editions of Injustice 2 that you can purchase, start at $59.99 (USD) for the basic version. There are also $79.99 and $99.99 editions that come with more content like skins and Gear Shaders. Injustice 2 is only available on the PS4 and XB1 because to hell with the PC.


    The Surge is a third-person action title full of sci-fi robots, evil corporations, and exosuits. It's got some fast-paced action blended with RPG elements and may remind you of some other games that came out in the past.
    About The Surge
    Set in a heavily dystopian future as Earth nears the end of its life, those who remain in the overpopulated cities must work to survive as social programs become saturated by an ageing population and increasing environmental diseases.

    As the intelligence of technology incrementally increased over the years, many jobs for the human race had been made redundant, forcing Earth’s citizens to head out into the suburbs seeking labor, aided by exoskeletons to improve their efficiency. The world of The Surge offers a very grim vision of the future, where the evolution of our technology, our society and our relation with the environment led to a decadent state of the Human civilization.

    The Surge features innovative combat mechanics and an original character progression system based on modular upgrades gained through tight, visceral combat. Be sure to stay tuned for more about The Surge over the coming months!

    Key Features
    • Tight, visceral hardcore action RPG combat with make-shift industrial weapons
    • A unique dismemberment and upgrade system utilizing cybernetic implants
    • Fight in a dystopian world full of mystery and learn about the events surrounding The Surge
    • Battle an array of huge industrial bosses
    • Craft, upgrade, and build new weapons with loot and blueprints

    The Surge is available for the PS4, PS4 Pro, XB1, and PC because horray for the PC!

      Review: The Surge 2 (PC)
      by Shawn Zipay
      Better than the original in almost every way.

      A weird thing happens when you have just a weekend to play a game and write a review for said game. I literally got my code Friday morning but could not begin until late Friday night. Sometimes that game ends up being longer than you anticipated. Sometimes that time that you could spend playing the game is spent instead with a weird thing called "life." And while "life" does have a tremendous framerate, it doesn't help...

      Metal Gear Solid 4 Finally Frees Itself from the PlayStation 3 Jail
      by Shawn Zipay
      An announcement that few thought was possible.

      At long, long last, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will no longer be confined to the PlayStation 3. With last week's announcement of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2, Konami will finally get Metal Gear Solid 4 into the hands of a much larger audience.

      Of course, Metal Gear Solid 4 won't be the only title contained within the "collection." It will be paired with one of my favorite Metal Gear...

      The Surge is Not Dark Souls and That's Okay (Review)
      by Shawn Zipay

      Reborn from the Fallen
      There is a very interesting thing happening with reviews for Deck13's new action-RPG The Surge. It's something I saw before and something I myself am guilty of, especially when it comes to Deck13's previous release, Lords of the Fallen. That "interesting thing" I have noticed is a move to compare each and every aspect of The Surge to the Dark Souls games. That alone is fine but the thing I cannot stand is the fact that some are actually upset, even borderline...
