MMORPG Gamers Social Network ZergID Enters Public Beta

Posted By Justin Lee On November 12, 2014 at 2:45 pm Comments Off on MMORPG Gamers Social Network ZergID Enters Public Beta

After more than two years of development and testing by 10,000 gamers, ZergID, a social network for MMORPG players, is entering public beta.

Former World of Warcraft players that have lost touch with in-game friends and want to reconnect in Azeroth will find ZergID a valuable tool. Adding their character information will allow other users to find them and play together again — old friends that will help them quickly reach level 100 in Warlords of Draenor.

The powerful, free feature set offered by ZergID allows its community to:

* Reconnect with gamers they used to play with – By simply setting up a ZergID profile and entering characters from games they have played, members allow old friends to find them via a search through the network, while still keeping their personal info private.

* Organize and access all their guilds and friends in one place – Guild pages are easy to set up, require zero maintenance and, unlike other tools offered for guild communication, all the social network’s features are completely free.

* Easily schedule play sessions – A scheduling tool allows members to organize in game events via open invites to their friends, or set up events with RSVP invites where the organizer approves which responding players they want, enabling them to curate which character classes will be in the final party

Alien: Isolation Review – Xbox One (Also on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox 360)

Posted By Jeff Markiewicz On November 10, 2014 at 3:49 pm Comments Off on Alien: Isolation Review – Xbox One (Also on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox 360)

Alien Isolation 09_1402071194When everyone thinks of making a videogame based upon the Alien franchise, most dream of one based upon the Colonial Marines from Aliens. A lot of classic videogames take more than a slight inspiration from that second movie. Unfortunately, the recent game based upon that concept proved disastrous. Developer of Alien: Isolation, The Creative Assembly, has taken a different approach. They have crafted a game based upon the first movie, the one of pure horror and survival. It’s a bold approach that has a lot of risk. On top of that, The Creative Assembly is best known for the Total War series of strategy games and not much experience in crafting this type of game. Can this developer make the jump to a new genre while simultaneously doing the Alien series justice?
