By Joe Jasko
We're big fans of pretty much everything Daedalic Entertainment has ever done around these parts, and so when we heard today that one of our favorite developers would be making a sequel to one of their earliest adventure games, there might have been some slight jumping for joy that immediately occurred afterwards. But all extraneous physical activities aside, we can now happily announce that The Whispered World will be getting a sequel in 2014.Dubbed as Silence - The Whispered World 2, the upcoming sequel will have players returning to the dream world of Silence, as they accompany a teenage boy named Noah who is seeking to find his younger sister Renie after her life had been abruptly taken from the living world. Promising another "emotionally rewarding yet humorous story" with plenty of mysteries along the way, The Whispered World 2 is set to feature that pristine point-and-click adventure gameplay that Daedalic has become so well known for, in addition to some fully revamped 3D visuals."We'll be sure to keep you updated on any new information we learn about Silence - The Whispered World 2 before the game hits PC and Mac in the latter half of 2014, but for now you can still check out the debut trailer over on Game Trailers and drool over that beautiful first released piece of concept art right above this paragraph.See the next two projects from Telltale Games right now
By Jim Squires
Love'em or hate'em, Spike TV's annual video game awards (now re-branded 'VGX') have become a pretty popular winter destination for new game reveals. The seedy, Axe-smelling yang to E3's yin. This year's event didn't disappoint, with Telltale Games announcing not one, but two new projects - complete with teaser trailers.And thanks to the magic of the internet, we can share those trailers with you in but a click of your mouse. :)The first is confirmation of the recently rumored Game of Thrones project. Dubbed Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series, this 2014 project will be based on the HBO TV series rather than the books themselves. This is almost a reversal of sorts from their Walking Dead series, which retained the visual stylings of Robert Kirkman's comic book rather than the grim and gritty reality of the AMC TV show.GOG.com issues new Worldwide Money Back Guarantee for broken games
By Joe Jasko
Our friends over at GOG.com have announced a brand new Worldwide Money Back Guarantee today, which will serve to benefit all users who happen upon a faulty download of a digital game that they've purchased through the site. Simply put, in the rare event that your GOG.com game just isn't working, you'll have a full 30 days after the initial date of purchase to contact the website about getting a complete refund.But wait, it gets even better! The new Money Back Guarantee is also being made effective for any faulty downloads that were purchased over the last 30 days. And they've even made a pretty awesome promotional video to tell you all about the new guarantee, which you can watch right below this paragraph.Now of course, hopefully it won't even need to come to that point: as most download issues could also be solved by scouring the website's helpful FAQ or support section, and keeping in mind the very low frequency with which these broken downloads tend to occur. But still, there's nothing like a bit of added insurance. So now head on over to GOG.com and get to buying more great games without any fear!Government agents are spying on your World of Warcraft sessions
By Joe Jasko
As if internet users weren't paranoid enough about everything they do online being monitored by government officials, it was now revealed today that secret high-ranking government agencies have also been commissioning spies to infiltrate another place that hits a little too close to home: online fantasy games. That's right, according to several classified documents that were leaked by ex-NSA contractor, Edward J. Snowden, ProPublica and The New York Times are both reporting that even online games are no longer safe from the government's prying ears and eyes.The classified government documents claim that online gaming uses most of the technologies that criminals or terrorists would need to make their illegal transactions, such as fake names and voice chats: the idea being that these shady individuals could essentially use an online gaming server as a front to conduct their businesses, where no one would even expect it. So government officials from the C.I.A., F.B.I., and even the Pentagon began creating their own player avatars in games like World of Warcraft and Second Life to do some snooping of their own, through collecting player data, monitoring communications, and even trying to recruit informers. Seriously."And what did the government find out from all of their deeply classified gaming efforts? Well, not a whole lot it would seem. None of the reports seem to indicate that any potential terrorist threats had been squashed due to the online gaming surveillance. However, it was also briefly mentioned that the government found a benefit in being able to identify gamers with backgrounds in fields like engineering and science for potential future recruitment within their agencies. So the next time you find yourself in a strong leadership role in a World of Warcraft quest, keep in mind that a government agent might be sizing up your skills for possible real world recruitment!Help Gomo save his dog Dingo in a new point-and-click adventure
Fishcow Studio is an independent development team based out of Slovakia, who is proud to have recently launched their first major title, Gomo.In Gomo, players partake in the search for Gomo's best friend, his dog Dingo, who has been abducted by aliens. In order to get Dingo back, Gomo will have to traverse across his world, searching for a rare crystal that lays buried deep underground. Featuring over 35 unique locations, players have plenty of scenery to point-and-click their way through on their hunt to find Dingo. "Path of Exile sees a quarter of a million daily users one month post-launch
Grinding Gear Games launched their free-to-play online action RPG Path of Exile earlier last month, and are now reporting some impressive figures: 250,000 players log in to the game each day, while over four million in total have registered to play.However these numbers are not exclusive to just the past month, as Grinding Gear Games launched Path of Exile into open beta back in January, but the statistics are impressive nonetheless and certainly not a common occurrence within the indie game scene. Of course, being able to tap into Steam's daily user base - one which recently surpassed 7 million - helps a bit too.Hotline Trail is a Hotline Miami-inspired endless driver
Developer Rezoner "Rezonerd" Sikorski participated in last month's 0h Game Jam, and his result is Hotline Trail, a top-down endless racing game where the route is only visible a short distance ahead. As the route reveals itself, players must make lightning-fast adjustments in order to keep from falling off of the track.Hotline Trail features a trippy 80s vibe that may remind many of Dennaton Games' 2012 title, Hotline Miami (currently available for 50% off on Gamezebo Deals!). While not nearly as violent as its alleged inspiration, Hotline Trail relies more on the unknown, rather than violence, to keep the player on edge. Two players can play the game at the same time using the Arrow keys and the WASD keys separately.
