by Danielle Riendeau Wowhead.com, a World of Warcraft database site, found an NPC called “Robin ,” in the data for the upcoming WOW expansion Warlords of Draenor. The NPC is associated with a 3D model that looks an awful lot like “Genie,” the chatty genie that Williams voiced in Disney’s popular animated film, Aladdin. The model appears to be a djinn. There are two other Robin NPCs, also coming in with patch 6.01. The character’s presence appears to confirm the story last week that the beloved actor (who died on Aug. 11) would be immortalized in the game. Genie is one of Williams’ most well-known performances, and Aladdin one of Disney’s highest grossing films of the 1990s. WOW super fan […]

by Sehran Shaikh Ubisoft showcased Tom Clancy’s The Division at GamesCom 2014 but not to the general public. It was a behind-closed doors demonstration on Xbox One. How exactly was the demo? We finally have an impression and it is coming from an insider source—Justin Robey, Senior Producer on Sunset Overdrive, Ryse: Son of Rome and Scalebound. Justin Robey via Twitter stated: “Saw The Division running on Xbox One. Jaw dropping gorgeous. Steam and environments were unreal. Gameplay also looked to be solid. Sold!” He further clarified Tom Clancy’s: The Division demo was indeed running on Xbox One and it went from dashboard to in-game, and he is not circulating fake or made-up information: “Not messing with you at all.

by ‘Brian’ Images discovered on the official Xbox website have revealed the existence of Resident Evil: Revelations 2. First, the Xbox website hosts the Revelations 2 box art above. There’s also a single screenshot located on the same “download.xbox” domain. The box art indicates that Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will be on the Xbox 360, but it’ll likely end up on the PlayStation 3 and PC as well. PS4 and Xbox One versions would not be at all surprising either. http://www.gamersoutpost.net/

by Gaf Hussain With each iteration of Uncharted, Nathan Drake appears to looks slightly different. He originally was compared with Nathan Fillion, leading to rumors (or more like hopes) that the Firefly actor would eventually play the treasure hunter and adventurer Nathan Drake in a movie. However, in Uncharted 4, Nathan Drake looks like a different person yet again, and he looks more like a famous Hollywood actor. Could Naughty Dog have done the same thing they did with The Last of Us and accidentally create a main character that looks like a real life actor? Or are they doing this intentionally so when a film is announced, they already have an actor who slots right in? We couldn’t help […]

by L.W. Barker Yosuke Hayashi, game director of Team Ninja, recently revealed that they are working on a new game for Sony’s PlayStation 4. Per him, the team is “developing a PS4 game internally”,and that we should “look forward to new information in the future.” Now as you might already be aware, Team Ninja is the studio behind the Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive series. And it was only two months ago that Hayashi-san said that the studio was already “thinking” about the next Ninja Gaiden. However, this new game could be something else entirely. We’ll just have to wait for an official announcement from Team Ninja to get our answer. http://www.gamersoutpost.net

by L.W. Barker The Order: 1886 is turning out to be quite a game. Today, Sony’s Product Manager of PlayStation Spain, known only by his twitter name ‘Angel’, tweeted some interesting comments. Per him, “The game looks so good that it resembles a movie. The graphics look incredible. I prefer it over Infamous: Second Son, even though they are both different games. However, for us, 1886 is a GOTY candidate.” These are indeed powerful words and yet another example of Ready At Dawn putting its programming heart, soul and muscle into ensuring that ‘The Order: 1886’ turns out to be a triple A blockbuster. http://www.gamersoutpost.net The hype machine around The Order 1886 just keeps pumping. Today it’s the turn of […]

by L.W. Barker PCs may be running old (and new) Xbox 360 games sooner than the Xbox One. The lead developer on the Xbox 360 xenia project, (who wished to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) has recently made some promising comments about emulating the seventh generation console from Microsoft. Per him “Author here. Yeah, the readme is meant to scare off people. Even with it I still get people on IRC or email asking me if they can play game X or where they can get a copy. The note about no downloads is for all those who download 360 emulators from shady YouTube links and such – there’s a surprising number of fakes packed with malware and viruses floating […]
