No Formal Training

 Hitman 3 - Year Announced, What Might We Expect? IOI have not been one to rest on their laurels with the current Hitman trilogy, with an announcement made earlier this month that briefly highlighted some of their plans for the second year of everyone's favourite bald hired killer latest adventures. Not that this gave too much away of what was to come, but this announcement was perhaps to be expected as IOI made it clear that Hitman 3 is a platform, allowing you to continue playing levels from the first two games in this trilogy with all progress saved, must like you could do with Hitman 1 levels when Hitman 2 came out. The platform idea makes even more sense when you consider that Hitman 1 was sometimes referred to as Hitman Season 1. However, the release of Hitman 3 did cause some concern once the release date got closer as IOI backpedalled somewhat on this as far as the PC version, now an Epic Games store exclusive, was not going to allow PC players who had bought the first two...

 What could an LA Noire sequel look like? LA Noire made a bit of a impressive impact when it was realised and fans of the game have been clamouring for a sequel pretty much since they finished it. Sadly, while rumours have persisted over the years of a possible follow up, much like sequels to Bully nothing has ever materialised, and as of time of publishing, nothing has been heard of to suggest such a sequel would be made.

A better game engine. One of LA Noires many flaws was it's engine, a pure jack of all trades that worked well in some regards and in others were adequate, but barely. A look behind the scenes makes it clear how ambitious the project was, but was also mix...

What we’d like to see in Untitled Goose Game D.L.C.   It’s fair to say that untitled goose game took everyone in the world both by surprise and storm, coming from nowhere with bright colourfull graphics, a deliciously devious sense of humour and a delinquent goose to control and spread chaos around a small english village, which I’m guessing from the visual clues around the place, it seems the residents are enjoying a very quiet, lazy sunday morning, back in the 1980s.   Until the goose came.   Why the 1980s? Well let's take a look at the most obvious things we can see about the village, the cars and the TVs are all old, very out of date and more in line with the TVs from the 80’s. Single mono speakers on one side of the screen, and a couple of them seem to be showing the BBC’s old ceefax teletext service.   I can’t think of many shops where they try to sell old style CRTs TVs these days, certainly not as their only stock, even if they are a speci...
