This year’s E3 will likely go down as one of the most successful of the last few years. Not only did we get a boatload of announcements and trailers that we were already expecting, but we also got some of the biggest out-of-left-field reveals to ever come out of the show! The new DOOM is alive and well, The Last Guardian was confirmed as still in development, and perhaps the most incredible of all: the Final Fantasy VII remake (a project many thought would never EVER happen) was confirmed to be a real game that’s actually being produced! It’s…just so incredible! Projects once thought either dead or nonstarters are becoming reality! If these games can make it into the light of day, perhaps there’s still hope for others as well! Here’s three games that we just might get to see after all if this trend continues! Continue reading Not Dead Yet! #gamersonwatch →

This month things are a little bit different. Sumer’s finally starting to loose its grip here so that means its about time for Halloween. What better topic for October than the Horror Genre? A few of us from United We Game are writing guest posts over Horror video games to be shared on someone else’s blog. This week the post is by Hatm0nster, one of our awesome admins at UWG, so enjoy and remember to check the site out!

We’ve seen a lot of big games come out of the survival-horror genre over the last several years. Games like Dead Space, Condemned 2: Blood Shot, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent, just to name a few. These are supposed to be the games that can scare us. The games that we can’t help but play even though we dread doing so. How many of these games are actually scary though?
