We’ve gotten a mini Direct earlier this year, as well as a Nindies Showcase today, and now there’s going to be a Chinese Direct just forRing Fit Adventure. Huh? Yep, despite the fact thatRing Fit Adventurearrived all the way back in October of last year; the little fitness game that could became an unlikely phenomenon due to the current global situation, and it seems like Nintendo still wants to capitalize on it....

Reminds that Vita entry will be just as large as home console releases Ubisoft has released a new developer diary forAssassin’s Creed III: Liberation, the upcoming PS Vita entry into the alternate history sandbox series. The video spends most of its time discussing the character of Avilene, touching on why they chose a female protagonist and hinting at an struggle taking place within her in the story.

It sounds like the start of a dirty joke Today’s contest features sidescrolling runnerJet Kave Adventure! If you give a mouse a cookie, it’ll inevitably ask for milk.

Depth of the wild I like contests. Do you like contests? Enter our contest forDepth of Extinction. Man, this one brings back a painful memory of my gaming youth. We had a computer when I was a kid, and my dad had a copy of one of the oldX-Comgames (don’t ask which one). I saw him playing it and was all like, “Yeah, this looks awesome!” So I taught myself how to boot up DOS mode on our Compaq, fired that bad boy up, and was instantly and horrendously destroyed by the aliens....

Just in case you wanted to buy a weapon from a friend Bungie has just updated their blog in light ofDestiny‘s impending launch, tying up loose ends as to what to expect, and their PAX Prime plans. Small things are being implemented like clan member increases to 100 players, but one major bit of information sticks out however, which is in regards to how the loot system works.
