NA RETROLANCER

Gears 3: Execute your friends! Full scale retro-lancers for sale from EPIC?

I didn’t really believe it when I read it, but it’s true! On 9/13/2011 (one week before Gears of War 3 hit shelves) you can take home your very own Gears of War 3 – Retro Lancer! What is the reasoning behind selling it a week before the game’s 9/20 release? My sources say that the folks at EPIC were afraid that fans of the series would wildly attempt the charging retro-lancer execution on each other in the freaking Gamestop parking lot!  Due to this fear they decided to release the lancer a week early on 9/13/2011 (purely for safety purposes).  The last thing the world needs are a bunch of impaled nerds… Info below

Can I take her home?

 

INFO FROM EPIC

Dubbed the Retro Lancer during the Lambent Invasion, the Pendulum Wars Lancer Assault Rifle was the preceding model to the Lancer Assault Rift. Used primarily in the Pendulum Wars as the COG soldier’s primary choice weapon, it was abandoned about a year after Emergence Day because the weapon was ineffective to the Locust Horde’s fighting tactics. However, following the Sinking of Jacinto when supplies started becoming sparse, the Retro Lancer started cropping up in fighting forces once again

PAX East 2012: XCOM: Enemy Unknown – Old Fashioned Strategy Reborn

The year was 1994 and I was sitting at my computer covered in Dorito crumbs and shattered dreams. After hours of playing XCOM, my entire squad of super soldiers had met their end due to a simple mis-click. Since death in XCOM was permanent, it was time to reload and try again… and again. XCOM: UFO Defense was one of my favorite strategy titles of all time, despite it’s brutal difficulty. For nearly twenty years I’ve been waiting for a proper sequel, and I’m very happy to say that XCOM: Enemy Unknown is that title.

Epic Mickey – 83 years in the making

Epic Mickey takes a darker look at the world created by the mouse, by taking players to a world inspired by a time before the mouse existed. Gamers will immediately recognize the familiar tenants of adventure platforming, but the unique influences of Disney art and culture give the game a character all it’s own.

They’re Real?

In today’s modern age of gaming developers will often base their creations on real people. In the past it was jarring to see an “actor” pop up as a video game character, especially if they were were relatively well known. Can you imagine the nightmare of plopping in Super Mario 4 and seeing a CG version of Danny Devito hurling fireballs from his swollen quasi-dwarven finger tips?
