One last hurrah
There's a new Dragon Age: Inquisition patch out on PlayStation 4, and it weighs in at around 4GB.

Final fantasy
It's been a reasonably long road for Dragon Age: Inquisition and all of its epic adventures, but the Inquisitor and his or her chums can't stick around forever.

The show will last an hour, starting at 10:00AM CET. It's unknown what the company will actually be bringing on stage, but seeing as Sony - a usual heavy hitter of the German expo...
News You'll Probably Hear More About Mass Effect: Andromeda in the Near Future
Space to breathe
After a rather stunted showing at E3 2015, fans have unsurprisingly been clamouring for more information regarding Mass Effect: Andromeda ever since. The next instalment in BioWare's sci-fi series is currently deep in development, but that hasn't stopped the studio from supposedly showing some of the title off at San Diego Comic-Con...
News You Won't Be Able to Play Dragon Age: Inquisition's Future DLC on PS3
You can transfer your save to PS4, though
Sad news for those still battling demons on their PlayStation 3: BioWare has confirmed that future downloadable content for Dragon Age: Inquisition will only be available on new-gen consoles. While the reasoning for this is unclear, we'd wager that it's to make development a little easier and quicker. What's...

What a week that was
Can you believe it? E3 2015 just about done after almost a solid week of hectic coverage. For us, it's time for a break, but for you, the next couple of weeks are going to seem decidedly drab in comparison - perhaps even boring. Still, this year's Los Angeles-based expo proved to be well worth the fuss, granting us five big...
E3 2015 This PS4 Footage of Unravel Will Melt Your Heart

E3 2015 BioWare Spills Some Details on Mass Effect: Andromeda

Round Up What Did EA Announce During Its E3 2015 Press Conference?
EAt that
An E3 mainstay, EA's press conference didn't disappoint this year. A slew of AAA titles keep the publishing juggernaut rolling, so it's unsurprising that its presser was full of big budget monsters.

E3 2015 Unravel Is a 2D Platformer With a Touching Story
EA's Wooly World
Jokes were abundant throughout EA's presser, but as a clearly nervous developer pulled a doll made of yarn from his coat pocket, we seriously contemplated turning off the stream - thank goodness things picked up once some gameplay was shown. Unravel looks pretty great, to be frank. What we're dealing with, it seems, is an artsy...

Weed killer
2014's Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare came as a bit of a surprise in that it was actually a much better game than many thought it would be.

News Endure the Flames with Dragon Age: Inquisition's Free DLC Trailer
Get behind me
Truth be told, we've grown a bit cold on Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer mode. The co-op component supports up to four players, and while it can be fantastic fun with friends, grouping up with random players can lead to disaster if you're not all on the same page. That said, we're actually tempted to hop back into the action...

The DLC launched last week on Xbox One and PC, but the studio wasn't allowed to say when it...

News Blow the Bloody Doors Off with Battlefield Hardline's New Gameplay Trailer
Cop blocker
Battlefield Hardline's launch trailer is here, and it's actually pretty good. Sure, it's full of clichés and blackout cuts, but we reckon it shows off the title's single player campaign quite well. Full of guns, car chases, bullets, robbery, and some seemingly cardboard characters, it's everything that you'd expect, and it's all set to...

News Dragon Age: Inquisition's PS4 and PS3 Patch Means More Party Banter
Tell me more
It's been out for a little while on PC now, but consoles have finally nabbed Dragon Age: Inquisition's rather hefty patch. The download makes dozens of tweaks to little bits and pieces of the role-playing game, and as such, it doesn't fix or add anything too significant. That said, a common complaint from fans regarding a lack of party...

Dragons can't even breathe in space
Given Dragon Age: Inquisition's critical success, it wasn't long before BioWare fans began to wonder how the title's formula would affect the studio's sci-fi property, Mass Effect.

News Phew, Dragon Age: Inquisition's Multiplayer Will Not Affect the Single Player Story
Thank the Maker
We remember the negative commotion that surrounded Mass Effect 3's co-op mode all too well, and so we were a little worried about whether or not Dragon Age: Inquisition's newly announced multiplayer would have any effect on the single player story, if only so we didn't have to wade through countless hate-filled forum posts...
