PAX East 2016: Kill or be Killed in Dead by Daylight
PAX East 2016: Kill or be Killed in Dead by Daylight

It's clear from the games listed here that the horror genre has enjoyed a successful resurgence, but the future of the genre is looking bright as well. Until Dawn studio Supermassive Games is currently working on an ambitious new horror anthology series , and Capcom is hard at work on the Resident Evil 2 remake, which looks like it's sticking close to the franchise's horror roots. With games like the Resident Evil 2 remake on the horizon, the horror gaming genre that was once in danger of going extinct is now showing no signs of slowing d

March and April may not hold as many options as previous months, but there are still quite a few good picks available. Suits returns to USA; Whose Line Is It Anyway? proves what works, works (even on the CW); PBS finally premieres the BBC mini-series Mr. Selfridge starring Jeremy Piven; Orphan Black returns to BBC America; and Game of Thrones season 4 premieres… at some po

The much-anticipated sequel to the original hack-and-slash game , Bayonetta 2 saw the return of the titular character for another round of action-packed stiletto-pumping action as she journeyed to the Gates of Hell to save her friend Jeanne from eternal damnation after the pair were attacked by a group of angels, and a demon summoning goes terribly wr

The holidays are now over, and 2014 is upon us, and with it comes a television premiere/return schedule even more complicated than in the fall. As old and new favorites return from break, even more old and new shows will begin to premiere, and it will be up to you to decide what to and, more importantly, what not to wa

Premiere Picks: Helix (Syfy) from Battlestar Galatica creator Ronald D. Moore; True Detective (HBO), starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson; Sherlock (PBS) season 3; Black Sails (Starz); and (A&E) and BBC America’s Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond mini-ser

There’s some less-than-ideal quirks to the SLG Game Tips I hope get ironed out before release, like the fact that the best strategy as a survivor with a killer on your tail is to run in circles around him to exploit the limited perspective. It’s a bit goofy as a survivor, but it mostly just feels clumsy and frustrating as the killer. As well, though the developer described how other maps will provide much different gameplay from the forest level they were showing off, it sounds like activating generators to power an escape door is the only objective survivors will ever be given. I’d really like to see some creativity there, because while the meat of the game is ultimately about the tension of being hunted and the procedurally generated levels will add some variety to every match, it’d be nice to have something else to do once in a while.

Fortunately, we’ve attempted to take some of the confusion out of your Comic-Con experience with a complete schedule of all the TV panels. While some series have yet to announce specific details , the majority of television series have already confirmed their plans for Comic-Con 2

On top of that, some of Comic-Con's fan-favorite TV series have been upgraded from the hallowed Ballroom 20, and will now be gracing the 5,000-seat Hall H. So, this year you won’t be able to simply sit in one room all day to catch many of the major television events has to offer at Comic-

Half-Life was undeniably one of Valve's greatest successes , introducing players to the crowbar-wielding Gordon Freeman and Black Mesa, the research facility where he worked. A sequel seemed like it was inevitable to capitalize on the success of the first game, and thus began the troubled development of Half-Life

January starts off with the highly-anticipated premiere of Community season 5, and then the world of television jumps backs in to gear as all of your favorite shows begin making their return from the holiday hia

We know now that PT is a "playable teaser" for Hideo Kojima's Silent Hills , a game that will never actually materialize since it was canceled by Konami . But back when it released, it was a truly mysterious and bizarre experie

Whereas most Alien video games are about fighting waves of xenomorphs or directly controlling the deadly creatures, Alien: Isolation instead makes players virtually defenseless as they attempt to survive against not only a xenomorph, but also an army of violent androids. The alien is still the real star of the show though, and its invincibility and unpredictable nature make it one of the most terrifying monsters in gaming hist

Frictional Games made a name for itself with Amnesia: The Dark Descent , a title that is largely responsible for the resurgence the horror genre has enjoyed in recent years. Its followup effort, Soma , may not have generated the same kind of buzz as Amnesia , but it is arguably the better, more polished game. Set in an underwater research facility filled with strange creatures, Soma is less about jump scares and more about building tension and scaring players with pure psychological hor
