What is interesting now though is seeing what Valve are going to do about the game on Steam. Famously, Hatred was pulled from the service's Greenlight page, before owner Gabe Newell himself stepped in to reinstate the game Currently, Steam don't provide AO games on their service, but the owner of the company has publicly allowed[...]

Check out our channel and like our Facebook page, we want to hear from you! This week: Dan takes center stage as we have a lot of PC gaming news, including the big Steam sale Dan lets everyone know what games to keep an eye on Minecraft + Telltale = Huh? GTA Online is getting heists finally,[...]

I think the subject matter is tasteless and controversial for the sake of controversy's sake, but I recognize its right to exist and the customer's right to buy it. The game had been back in the news recently when it appeared on the start-up platform, Steam Greenlight It didn't take long for Valve to step in[...]

The idea of sharing footage of yourself playing games is such a prevalent one nowadays that Sony went ahead and replaced their 'Select' button with a 'Share' one. That is why it should surprise now one that Valve have announced Steam Broadcasting In fact, it's almost a surprise it took the company, usually at the forefront[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Sweet Release! Bleeding Cool's one stop shop for freshly released video games.  It's hard to believe the end of the month is here already and the seasonal holidays are at our doorstep.  You should be reading this a day or so before American Thanksgiving so I'm sure our friends at retail are battening down[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back for another rundown of the week's hot new video game tape releases.  This week we've got two main themes, re-releases and horror, with a bit of both blended in for good measure.  That's right, dear reader, we're getting a couple of repackaging's including hardware this week.  We're seeing quite a few titles showing up for the[...]

Patrick Dane writes for Bleeding Cool: H. P. Lovecraft inspired games are hard to do. There are some exceptions to this rule with Call of Cthulu: Dark

Elliot poem of the same name, The Waste Land places you in the role of King Zyron III whose actions have transformed the land and unleashed a horrible evil that only he can stop.  Metroid-Vania titles at heart are about exploration and role playing game style upgrades with The Waste Land boasting "vast maps across 7 continents" and a series of[...]

By Jared Cornelius Since the beginning of August we've been treated to a steady stream of high profile new releases but today we've officially marked the start of the fall season's huge releases.  This week is the launch of what might be one of the biggest titles of the year and has pretty much overshadowed everything else for the week.  There's some games that fell through[...]

By Jared Cornelius Over the last few years the PC has been the place for interesting and experimental experiences.  Games with mashed up mechanics like Mark of The Ninja, Beat Hazard, and Rogue Legacy are all helping redefine genres and included in this beautiful PC renaissance has been a proliferation of the rogue-like genre of games.  If you're not familiar with the term it goes[...]

By Jared Cornelius Well friends it's finally here, this is the last full week of August.  It's time to go outside and enjoy one last hurrah before the inevitable return of September puts you back in the swing of fall sports and school projects.  I'm delighted however because September in New Jersey is a beautiful month with[...]

By Jared Cornelius The summer season is edging closer and closer to an end for many of us.  September brings a lot of things including a brand new school year, a return to college, or maybe even a revised work schedule and it's almost a little difficult to believe another summer has  practically come and gone.  At the cost of many of you losing your[...]

This week we dive into a series of quirky anime games, go old school in the RPG department and give top billing to a first person shooter that does something different. If you're tired of the same stock standard military first person shooters, Ziggurat might be worth a try.  By developer, Milkstone Studios, Ziggurat is a first person shooter mashed-up with[...]

By Jared Cornelius Hey gang, before we get started this week just a bit of housekeeping news, I've decided to retire the Live(ish) From The Games Shop moniker.  Without getting into the boring specifics, I got tired of my ego stroking Google searches turning up results for bait shops.  It's also made less sense since our beloved EIC[...]

 However, without the gameplay it has trouble being anything more than a forgettable puzzle game. Wayward Manor is currently available on Steam. Jared Cornelius is some guy from New Jersey's coast who's disappointed Neil Gaiman's game didn't turn out better.  If you'd like to recommend developers who'd fit with Gaiman's eclectic style contact me @John_Laryngitis on Twitter.

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop.  With San Diego Comic Con and E3 out of the way, it looks like we're finally in the home stretch of summer.  I know we have a whole month left, but one of the telltale signs of summer ending is the games release schedule is picking up.  This week[...]

By Jared Cornelius It's 12 PM on a Tuesday and I enter the parking lot of a dilapidated strip mall with only one thing on my mind, video games.  I park near a row of cars with stick figure families proudly displayed in every back window and begin my trek to the most wonderful of stores.  A place where only[...]

Winterbottom that was a critical success on Xbox Live back in 2010.  With the resume of Chuck BB, The Odd Gentlemen, along with a story by Gaiman, the pedigree on this title is astounding.  Wayward Manor released Tuesday on Steam. If last week's Supercombo Man left you hungry for more 2D fighting, the guys at ACE Team have got you covered with Abyss Odyssey.  The 2D platformer features procedurally generated levels[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop.  Last week's 4th of July celebration reminded me of independence, independence from retail releases that is.  Yes, dear reader, the trend continues with only a very niche title being released at retail.  But don't fret, this week digital returns and indie games come to save you[...]

By Jared Cornelius   Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop.  I was content to keep complaining about the lack of releases again, because unsurprisingly this is another barren week.  However, a bright shining star was released on Friday, escaping last week's column.  So I'm going to gush about that, then give you a couple of quality download titles[...]

It almost makes me anxious for new releases.  However, when I turn my gaze to the calendar this week we again have slim pickings.  If you must have a product in a retail box, UFC is out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, I hear it has Bruce Lee in it, that's cool, right?  So without any big budget release for the week[...]

By Jared Cornelius Well it's the week of E3 and as you can imagine no publisher or developer wants to get in the way of the onslaught of news that's coming out of LA this week.  That being said, there's not much in the way of games releases this week, so I'm going to do something a little[...]

To my pleasure it wasn't long until the game was released in early access on Steam. You play Alice, a little elf, with a sprite companion, who will remind you of Navi right away As with many Zelda titles, you will start the game by finding a sword, a USB sword This time though, you will[...]

The World War II shooter game Sniper Elite V2 will be available for free download (not just to play for a limited time) for 24 hours, Rebellion announced

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop, it's a new month and so we begin anew with your weekly slate of video games.  June is looking to start us out with some interesting and semi-controversial titles.  Square-Enix gives us their take on Indigo Prophecy, Nintendo gives us yet another life simulator, a dictatorship[...]

Blazkowicz your awakened from a coma in a European asylum to find its 1960, and the Nazis won World War II.  If that wasn't bad enough they developed some sort of hyper advanced technology that helped win the war, and now have a stranglehold on the world.  New Order has a heavy emphasis on single player story telling with no[...]

Borderlands 2 plays a bit like a first person shooter version of Diablo, with new gear and equipment dropping from enemies, making it perfectly suited for loot driven gamers.  The PlayStation Vita version includes all six character, two of the DLC expansion packs, and cross saves between the Vita and PlayStation 3 versions.  One downside is the Vita version only has two[...]
