Party Like it’s 1998. Tribes Ascend Hits 1 Million Downloads

by Joseph Christ · May 16th, 2012 · 1 Comment

Well I was just sitting here listening to some Celine Dion when this email burst forth into my inbox. Hi-Rez Studios is announcing that Tribes: Ascend, the newest release in a series started in 1998, has been downloaded 1 million times within the first month of release. “We’re thrilled that over 1 million gamers have discovered [...]

The Last of Us Gets A New CG Trailer

by Tim Bacani · May 15th, 2012 · 9 Comments

Naughty Dog has just released a new CG trailer for their post-apocalyptic survival game The Last of Us. The game is set in the remnants of a world overcome by the outbreak of a viral “fungus” that has turned humans into bloodthirsty monsters. Military controlled quarantine zones are the only places people can safely call [...]

Hitman: Sniper Challenge is Here, Antithetical to Hitman In Every Way

by Joseph Christ · May 15th, 2012 · 9 Comments

This week, people who have pre-ordered Hitman: Absolution have gained access to a completely separate mini-game called Hitman: Sniper Challenge. Available on both consoles and steam, it places Agent 47 in a type of bad-guy shooting gallery where he must eliminate both a central target along with all of the target’s bodyguards. It’s also completely [...]

Capcom “Re-Evaluating” On-Disc DLC

by Tim Bacani · May 14th, 2012 · 13 Comments

Capcom’s Vice President Christian Svensson has decided to address the present issue of on-disc DLC that has dragged the company’s public image through the dirt. The company has come under constant fire from fans in the last few years thanks to unpopular business practices revolving around re-releases, DLC and, most recently disc locked content. The [...]

Max Payne Video Shows Off Assault Rifles Before the Big Day

by Joseph Christ · May 14th, 2012 · 4 Comments

So how about one last Max Payne 3video before the big day tomorrow? Rockstar has released a final video showing off the assault rifle weapons you’ll be using in the game. The the G6 Commando, MD-97L, FAL, and AK-47 are all shown with the proper slow-mo, falling bodies and atmospheric music to round out the Max [...]

It’s Official, Minecraft is a Hit On XBLA

by Joseph Christ · May 14th, 2012 · 3 Comments

I never had any doubts that Minecraft would do well on Xbox Live Arcade, but I didn’t think it would have done this well, this fast. Perhaps I felt that everyone who would have played the game already had it for PC, leaving only a smaller market of neophytes and curious elders. Apparently this is [...]

Mechwarrior 4 and Mechwarrior Online Comparison

by Joseph Christ · May 14th, 2012 · 4 Comments

Younger gamers might be unfamiliar with the vibrance and history that adorns the Mechwarrior series of video games. After all, its remained almost completely dormant since Mechwarrior 4, and its expansion Mercenaries, first graced our PC’s in 2000 and 2002. Instead we’ve had a number of other series attempt to fill that mech-sized hole in our hearts, with [...]

Men in Black Alien Crisis Launches Next Week, Looks Terrible

by Chris Davis · May 14th, 2012 · 14 Comments

You know, I try to be an optimist about the game industry. For every complaint about EA not caring about their consumer base I look at the developers in their employ and just how great some of their games are. For every rant about publishers charging exorbitant amounts for downloadable content I think about how [...]

Tomb Raider Delayed to 2013

by Joseph Christ · May 14th, 2012 · 5 Comments

Following the lead of the recently delayed Bioshock Infinite, Crystal Dynamics Tomb Raider has been pushed from Fall 2012 to Q1 2013.

Clip of the Day: New Release FUUUU-esday

by J52 · May 13th, 2012 · 4 Comments

Brad’s plans to play Starhawk for last week’s New Release Tuesday hit a snag. He also details new releases he will be playing in the coming weeks. Thanks to funky_duck for clipping out the Timmy part. Also going on over at the ol’ 4PP Youtube, I uploaded Mike’s performance of his song Dark Soul.

4PP 270: The Jelly Belly Show

by 4PlayerPodcast · May 12th, 2012 · 7 Comments

In all honestly, we probably spend more time talking about these disgusting jelly beans than we do talking about games on this weeks episode! Carlos is dealt a crappy hand and becomes addicted to toothpaste and dog food. Brad eats baby wipes and Nick chokes on a centipede. In short, all hell breaks loose on [...]

Whatever Happened to “The Suffering”

by Nick Henderson · May 12th, 2012 · 16 Comments

Let’s be honest, the term Horror is used fairly loosely when speaking in reference to the gaming industry. IP (Intellectual Property) like Resident Evil and Dead Space still have their place but with so much emphasis now placed on creating a high-octane experience, the more important elements of true horror are rarely prominent or executed [...]

Trailer Talk Episode 26: Max Anarchy Edition

by Chris Davis · May 11th, 2012 · 11 Comments

Brad doesn’t think he’s quite driven home why he loves Anarchy Reigns so he tries once again to rectify this along with a batch of other new trailers. Plus, we have our first community-chosen trailer! Want to see your trailer on Trailer Talk? Link it to us in the forums: http://4playerpodcast.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10335

This Weekend is Battlefield 3 Double XP Weekend

by Joseph Christ · May 11th, 2012 · 6 Comments

It seems like only a few weeks ago I was asking why Battlefield 3 hadn’t yet hosted -at least to my recollection- a double XP weekend. You know, the ones that Call of Duty hosts at least once every few months that brings every person who ever even glanced at the game to crawl out of [...]

Cocktail Time Live: Ep. 3 – “Bob’s Hot Mexican Hooker”

by Joseph Christ · May 11th, 2012 · 5 Comments

Time for Cocktail Time…LIVE! We all get to meet Bob’s hot Mexican hooker and watch him throw her down into his fearful belly! We also talk about Recettear: An Item Shop’s Tale, Battlefield 3 training videos, Joseph comes up with “Blowhole Porn,” a little more of The Witcher 2, Elder Scrolls Online and more! Live Show: [...]

How lengthy games changed how I play

by Jeffrey Demelo · May 11th, 2012 · 6 Comments

Growing up…kind of sucks. It seems every day that I grew older, I lost a minute I used to spend playing video games. Worst even, is the length of games I enjoy playing typically range in the 30+ hour bracket. The old, dusty clock on the fireplace mantel now ticks at three-second increments, and I [...]

Clip(s) of the Day: 4PP is Beanboozled

by J52 · May 11th, 2012 · 3 Comments

During last night’s podcast, the guys sampled some (mostly) terrible jelly beans I sent Brad for his birthday. Here are the very best moments of said jelly beans derailing the show. Carlos eats smelly dog food, while Brad hacks up a diaper. Nick eats some centipede. Then Carlos eats a booger bean, and [...]

You Should Be Paying Attention to Keiji Inafune’s ‘Soul Sacrifice’

by Joseph Christ · May 10th, 2012 · 10 Comments

The list of currently available Vita games is a bit short right now, especially the list of good triple-A titles. Sure there are some really good looking games coming our way, but for a launch title it’s admittedly a little light in the breeches at the moment. That’s probably why you should start paying attention to Soul [...]

Max Payne 3 Launch Video Thickens the Atmosphere

by Joseph Christ · May 10th, 2012 · 9 Comments

Today, a few weeks before release, Rockstar has released the launch trailer for Max Payne 3. The interesting thing about this trailer is its almost complete lack of gun-play in exchange for story cinematics and tone. And I don’t see this as a bad thing at all. Rockstar has been showing off the shooting mechanics [...]

Here’s That Assassin’s Creed III Gameplay Trailer

by Chris Davis · May 10th, 2012 · 11 Comments

Several days back Ubisoft thought it to be a good idea to have its fans spam their friends with messages about Assassin’s Creed III in order to unlock the first full gameplay trailer. It’s an annoying practice to say the least but thankfully the trailer has finally been unlocked. Judging from the footage in the [...]
