Hands-On Reviews from PAX 2011 by Destructoid

Alright so today I've got some hands-on reviews from Destructoid straight from PAX for you guys. Hope you enjoy :)

Skyrim


Well that was a pretty hilarious little video review. I wish there was more gameplay, but I'm sure they have some sort of rule about that. Anyways, I couldn't help but notice throughout the entire video they are both giggling and stammering like schoolgirls. Honestly that alone speaks volumes about the game. Plus, they talked about vampires being in the game as well. I remember back in Oblivion I wanted to be a vampire because I thought it would be cool. Unfortunately I was wrong, and had to spend hours doing the quest to cure yourself of the disease. Either way, I think it's cool they're back. Just don't TRY to be a vampire unless you know what you're doing. xD

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Review by Destructoid

So since I wont be able to play Deus Ex: HR, I figured I'd post up this in-depth review of the game by Destructoid. Oh yeah, there's some Fable 4 and Duke Nukem news as well.


Now I've never actually played Deus Ex before. I know, I feel horrible having never played such a great game. Honestly it looks awesome, I've just never had the chance to play. Maybe soon I'll pick it up from Steam. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy the review. Sorry for the short post today, college is keeping me busy with homework.

Gamescom Preview: Star Wars The Old Republic



Hey guys, got some more news from Gamescom today. I've got a couple of really awesome videos to share with you from Total Biscuit again. This time he talks to a developer from Bioware about the upcoming MMO Star Wars The Old Republic. Oh yeah, did I mention there's some gameplay involved? Enjoy.

Gamescom Preview: League of Legends Dominion




Today was another great day of news from Gamescom. What stood out for me the most, was this 30 min video made by Youtuber Total Biscuit of the new game mode in LoL called Dominion. There's also a Q&A with a Riot team member while he plays. They discuss some pretty interesting things. Overall this looks like an awesome new addition. The games are fast paced, frantic, and exciting. The ending of the video was even a bit nail-biting! I'm pretty excited for Dominion. The only problem I foresee is the community. Most LoL players can get a bit "sore" while losing, and a gametype like this can only incite rage from angry neck beards. But assuming everyone can get along and be good sports, Dominion should turn out to be extremely fun. If you haven't already, you can sign up for LoL here.

Game Preview: Hard Reset


Hard Reset is a FPS set in an awesome Cyber Punk style universe. Obviously, me not being a professional game reviewer, I don't actually get to play the game. Therefore you can check it out on Kotaku. I know, I know, most people probably don't like Kotaku, but this is actually a nice little preview of a cool looking game. If you take it for what it is, and nothing more, you'll probably enjoy it. Oh yeah, there's also a 7 min video of pure gameplay here. One more link, you can check out the official site here, where they have a teaser and a trailer.
