When Eric and I were deciding on a game to play for TWIC we ran through a plethora of titles that would work just fine but outside forces stopped us from finding that perfect title. One of us would not own a game the other chose, or when we did own the game it would be on the wrong platform. For whatever reason; call it luck, destiny, or predetermination, fate would conspire to finally find the game that we were to play together.
Amazon must be having a fire sale on Bethesda published co-op games. After the Brink deal from earlier this week, the retailer now has the two player co-op Action/RPG, Hunted: The Demon's Forge on sale too. How much are they asking for the two player co-op game? Just a measily $14 for the console version and $13 for the PC version.
Does it kill you a little each night you go to bed knowing that you missed just a few collectibles on your first playthrough of Hunted? Or did you recently buy or rent a copy of the game and you want to be absolutely certain you get everything you want the first time through? Well worry not, obsessive gamer (it's okay, we all have our compulsions), there's a section over at GamerVoices Guides that has you covered! Each subchapter (e.g. 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc.) has a detailed map where points of interest are color-coded triangles. For example, dragon tears are green. The points for crystals, dragon tears, prisoners, and corpses can be clicked on. This brings up a nice screenshot with a short description on how one reaches the area in the screenshot. Pretty useful, no? Thanks for the tip llllepicllll!
We have great expectations for Hunted: The Demon's Forge. The title has been built specifically for co-op play. Featuring two distinct characters, online and split screen co-op, plus an epic quest, does this action RPG live up to the hype? Find out in our Co-Op Review.
Hunted: The Demon's Forge was released this week on the 360, PS3 and PC with two player co-op gameplay. The game centers around the story of two characters, E'Lara and Caddoc, and their adventures in the game's world to stop a nefarious plot. We may have seen it all before, but developer inXile really wanted to drive home the cooperative elements in the game.
Hope everyone had a great long weekend. Always nice when Sunday gets a "Continue." It's slim pickens for new releases this week, but there is one shining light of co-op hope. Today marks the release of Hunted: The Demon's Forge. We'll have a Co-Op review posted for your reading pleasure as soon as possible. The game will support 2 player local split screen or 2 player online co-op. Read on to see the other weekly releases.
Hunted: The Demon's Forge is almost upon us. Do you have your pre-order bonus picked out? The dark fantasy action game has been built from the ground up as a co-op experience. Two players can take on the roles of E'lara and Caddoc, each a master of their own particular style of combat. (Here's a hint: the guy with big muscles is good at melee fighting, while the woman in the leather bikini prefers ranged attacks. Go figure.) Today we have one last video before the game's launch next week. You like pop-metal covers of "Happy Together," don't you? No? Well, too bad. Enjoy the launch video and all of its heart-ripping, face-chopping glory.
The latest developer diary for the Hunted: The Demon's Forge delves into an oft overlooked aspect of games: sound design. How do they get arrows to sound like arrows? Sadly, they don't shoot arrows inches away from a microphone. How do they get sloppy sound of a gory kill shot? Believe it or not, you just can't kill stuff on a sound stage, at least not in this country. Find out little secrets like these and more in this enlightening 4 minute video. There's plenty of in-game footage, as well.
Bethesda's video department must be working overtime lately. With almost daily videos of Brink, and Hunted: The Demon's Forge - as well as RAGE - there's a constant flow of content coming out of the Maryland studio.
This latest developer diary for Hunted: The Demon's Forge has a ton of information. The makers of the game discuss the story, settings, and inspirations for the upcoming co-op title. Lucy Lawless, who plays the voice of Seraphine, is featured prominently. Judging from this video, the devs have crafted a deeper story than we usually get from hack and slash games. The story will be more than just a mere suggestion as to why you're killing everything between points A and B.
Hunted: The Demon's Forge is looking to extend its longevity. A new dungeon creator mode has been revealed, simply titled "Crucible." Gold earned during the campaign can be used to buy new items for the dungeon tool. Potential dungeon engineers will be given a grid and multiple options to craft a challenging level for their friends. You can even upload your Crucible to share with others online. It's like being a Dungeon Master, only without stupid rule books or that silly screen! We have a very informative video after the break that explains just how the Crucible tool will work.
Bethesda and inXile have released a brand new trailer for Hunted: The Demon's Forge showcasing the game's two player co-op gameplay. It's something we saw in our hands on preview. The trailer, called The Power of Two, shows each character's unique strengths as well as their ability to work together.
