Super Motherload is a simple game about Cold War astronauts mining on Mars. It's a lot of fun, but beware the Hardcore mode, which is next to impossible. I took a look at it on PS4 if you want to see what you're in for.Read more...

BlackSoul: Extended Edition is Now Available on Steam and is 20% off to celebrate!

"BlackSoul: Extended Edition" is a third person survival horror adventure game with an intriguing story set in England in 1972: people have been turned into psychotic killers by an unknown infection and you must try to help Ava and Sean survive in the quarantined area and find out the truth. You won't spend all your time on a killing spree, but you'll need to solve many puzzles which will challenge you.

Forget any government research labs in which they're working on some kind of ultimate weapon; instead think of something much sadder and crueler...and even if the story is not based on truth, we'll tell you about some events that really happened in the mid century.

Iron Soul is Now Available on Steam and is 30% off to celebrate!

Discovery of a new Goldilocks planet has led to the creation of a new type of army: One that is made of metal and steel. One that cant feel pain or fear. One that is said to be our only hope against a possible alien invasion. Sadly, even with all the technological advancements available to future governments, they are not fully in control of the machines… The bot-mageddon is coming and it will be up to one our brightest scientists to help us against the inevitable.

You can excavate with PC mates now, because an Early Access version of Super Motherload is available on Steam. XGen Studio's follow-up to Flash game Motherload combines local co-op with treacherous mobilized quarrying, and on PC that includes controller support for four simultaneous players.

Super Motherload pits you (geddit?) as you an employee of a galactic mining corp, and your job is to dig as far into Mars' procedurally generated depths as you can. Sounds like a day at the beach, but in addition to precious resources beneath the Red Planet's surface, there are puzzles, dangers, and dark secrets waiting to be unearthed.

To celebrate the news, XGen has the Steam release going at 10 percent off until March 4; the regular price is $15 in North America, and £12/14 euros in Europe. Meanwhile, PSN discounts for North America dig even deeper into the cross-buy PS4 and PS3 versions: $7.50 until March 3, or $3.75 for PS Plus subscribers. [Image: XGen Studios]

Get ready, riders: Trials is making its PlayStation debut! RedLynx, a Ubisoft Studio, is happy to announce that Trials Fusion is coming to PS4 on April 16th.

As you can see in the trailer above, Trials Fusion builds off of the Trials series’ unique take on physics-based platform racing while introducing features such as the brand new FMX Tricks System. Our development teams at RedLynx and Ubisoft Shanghai have designed Trials Fusion specifically for next-gen hardware, and we plan on bringing you tons of races, skill games, and challenges to tackle in the months to come.

Trials Fusion will also include the fan-favorite Editor Mode and an updated version of Track Central, where you can download and share creations with Trials riders and builders all over the world. We can’t wait to see what you create — using the same tools that our level designers used — when you start building this April.

12782986743_f982949fc4_z.jpg

Trials Fusion will be available as a digital download for $19.99, or you can pick up a physical edition, which includes a Season Pass, for $39.99. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter as well — we have a ton of content and announcements planned for the coming weeks. See you on the leaderboards!

The rather confused headline refers to the fact that free browser game Into The Box plays like the bastard (hard) child of Terry Cavanagh’s brain-searing Super Hexagon and AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! – A Reckless Disregard for Gravity. The music and frame wobble like Pac-Man at a well-stocked rave, and the player falls ever-forward, attempting to steer into boxes, which are scattered within larger boxes. Reaching specific score thresholds unlocks new music tracks and bonus rings, which provide fresh targets to aim for. I’m finding it hard not to go straight back in because my current high score is a pitiful 33.

Warehouse and Logistics Simulator has just been released on Steam. It contains “original Jungheinrich forklift”, a “huge variety of quests” about lifting pallets from point A to point B, and no collision detection on the people idly milling around the warehouse.

Hello, Ramone Russell here. I’m the Game Designer and Community Specialist on MLB The Show.

One of the most common pieces of feedback we get each year from our fans is that they’d like to play complete games faster. That’s why we’re excited to bring two new options into MLB 14 that allow for you to experience The Show without having to make as big of a time commitment as in the past: Quick Counts and Player Lock. Watch the video below for an in depth look.

Here are a few more details about the features that weren’t covered in the video:

  • Quick Counts and Player Lock are game options; they aren’t mandatory.
  • Quick Counts and Player Lock are available in all game modes except Road To The Show.
  • Player lock will allow you to play a full game in as little as 10 minutes.
  • With Quick Counts on, you will cut your game completion times in half if used in conjunction with the Fast Play presentation setting. Games can now be completed in as little as 30 minutes.
  • Realistic stats in Quick Counts have not been compromised. However, you may see a slight increase in strike outs and walks.
  • To customize your Player Lock experience, visit the Options page and access the RTTS Options.
  • Player Lock fielding uses fielder-perspective controls, so all bases are mapped opposite of non-Player Lock games (i.e. Square = First, X = Second, Circle = Third, Triangle = Home)
