A new trailer for Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor has surfaced – thanks to Dutch website XGN – that reveals the release date of this highly anticipated ‘Assassin’s Creed meets Lord of the Rings’ title. According to this new trailer, the game is scheduled for an October 7th release on PC, current-gen and old-gen consoles. Enjoy the trailer after the jump!

bullfuckingshit october, there is nothing important coming out in the next 4 months, except maybe gta 5 pc and the downgraded dark souls 2.. This year is turning out to have a shitty first 6 months game wise.
Am I the only one that think is a good thing? I mean, gives more time to finish games that still not finished, more time to upgrade rigs and most importantly, more time to the bloody devs polish their games and not release something rushed or broken. 🙂
yeah, i mean i got games to play, but the problem is they arent paticulary good, id trade some of the crap i am playing now for a good game.
Also yeah why would i upgrade? wolfenstein? 60 fps on xbone, evil within? same engine same perfomance (idtech) and watchdogs looks downgraded. Seriously Nothing is coming out anytime soon. Evil within is coming in summer.
We will have to wait for E3 to see what next gen has to offer.
well i got a 770gtx a couple of weeks ago and i have nothing to play with it, i was hoping for witcher or dragon age but those come out at the end of the year, dark souls looks like shit, castlevania was a big letdown, thief as well…
I agree. Lords Of Shadow 2 was the biggest disappointment of the year so far. It’s predecessor was miles better.
From what i heard the problem is that the game is too padded out with acquiring upgrades in the castle.
Combat was fine but they ruined the story and the modern setting is terrible and looks very bland. Also, they added probably the most stupid, annoying stealth missions. And don’t even get me started on that final boss fight………
i dont see how the story was good on the first game, it had nothing to do with castlevania, unlike mirror of fate.
Well obviously it has nothing to do with the original castlevania. It’s a reboot.
I only like the castle levels in the first game. The rest was pointless filler.
i thought the first one had a great story and ending, cool combat and really good art design. Out of all the god of war like games ( gow, dantes inferno, dmc, etc ) i thought Lords Of Shadow was the best overall. For me at least.
I never played the other castlevania games so nothing in LoS felt like filler to me. I liked Gabriel’s story and yes the game started out as a cliche but Gabriel’s character grew on me. It was also a lengthy game which really gave time for Gabriel’s character development to be fleshed out. My problems were that it was too linear and that there are so many invisible walls but sometimes I think a linear game can be a benefit for games like this.
the older ones were nonlinear and taking place in castles
I don’t think you should actually be comparing the original games to the LoS saga. Just think of it as it’s own story. It never really bothered me that the game had areas besides castles. That gave the game some variety to me.
I was gonna get that card as well, then i reallized, WHY? There is nothing coming out, so i am waiting for E3.
What card are you using now?
gtx 660 got it for 168 euro
That card is still great. Keep it until the high-end Maxwell launches.
my old one died so i had to replace, i was gonna go for gtx770 but i reallized i might as well upgrade cpu and thus mobo, then i reallized there is nothing outhere and got the card on a bargain.
waiting for E3 to bring some games.
You can do whatever you want to do but you’d be more futureproof if you wait for the more powerful Maxwell. Then again, it isn’t coming anytime soon.
well i got it for titanfall, bf4 thief, rivals and with it now i can finally play black and white 2 smooth as butter. I can exchange it for a new model each year with no cost so it was a very good deal for me. Not buying it now would have lost me this deal.
Wolfenstein looks like the best fps outhere. Hopefully it delivers and there is watchdogs.
GTA V PC will be here by late May, perhaps early June for sure. That is if they don’ internally delay it again for the third time, though. Have no doubts about what I just as this is not opinioon but 100% fact derived from a Rockstar employee who I am buddies with.
GTA 5 PC won’t come out anytime soon . They won’t release it until there are enough users on PS4 and Xbox One . They are too pus*ies to release PC version first and console versions later . Rockcrap doesn’t trust PC owners , they will release it along with Current gen console version once there is enough user base there . For them 75+ million steam users are next to nothing and the game will be pirated by 99% of those .
I won’t be surprised if it won’t come out until 2015 or if PC version is set to release even after the release of PS4 and Xbox One .
sigh….typical comment from an uniformed idiot. he’s 100% correct, btw.
maybe you should head over to the GTAforums and view the massive PC discussions thread. grab a cup of coffee and be prepared to read through hundreds of pages of information regarding the PC version that has been uncovered by modders, sleuthers, and people who are generally smarter than you, over the past year.
PC version WAS supposed to be released months ago, R* changed their plans and delayed it internally. it was going to be announced last month, but it got pushed back yet again internally because of alleged “stability issues”, which is most likely just a smoke screen for issues they’re having with the XB1 version of the game. all three versions (PC, PS4, XB1) will be released simultaneously. PC version has been finished for several months now, developer log files factually prove that.
again, if you don’t know what you’re talking about, then please stfu.
i dont know, the next gen reelease makes sense, but juding by gta iv, the stability issues also makes sense.
i did not bother reading those forums but what u say sound 100% plausible. I FUCCCKING HATE CONSOLES !
Rape that lore!
downgraded ? or is it just me ? in first gameplay trailer the furs in his cape has some physics in them but in this one nothing, nothing at all + low res textures are all over the place
I noticed that too! The terrain/environment textures look washed out and overall the game looks lower quality…lets hope the PC is the focus and we get the visuals as shows in the first gameplay video! I have some hope since every Monolith game in the past has been PC first developed…
wow monolith makes this.,so they step away from fps.
They used to be my favourite studio, but then WB bought them and they’ve made crap since after FEAR 2.
monolith was good until jace hall left
BLOOD nuff said, also blood deathwish mod, you must play it.
This just came in : Max Payne 3 for ps4 leaked pics:

Promises to be great game:) I will be watching on it.
Better be 1080p/60fps for £48 on the PS4.I paid £4.94 for the same experience.on my PC. Port them old games from the PC and charge full price like Tomb Raider 2013 on PS4 LoL.
imo max payne 3 was awful ,its story looks like wrotten by a 12 yrs old and they ruined Max character ,what is so cool about say the F word on every sentence? i just posted that image because is a Rockstar game and Rockstar fanboys will be happy.
Yeah, too many cut scenes, the game takes control away too much, need bullet time too much and puts you in cramped situations way too much. Glad I got it so cheap.
headshot ! those headshots, i remember i emptied 2clips on enemies head to do headshots. that game was awful, plays awfuly, too linear, story sucked
The story was a huge and plain facepalm.
I only bought it for 7.50$ with all its shitty dlc’s and i only did it because of one single chapter: The chapter V ,it was the only one that came close to the old ones.
agreed only the controls and gunplay were good. Wtf the guy who wrote the story on gta wrote this trash. Sorry dan houser max payne is not gta. The fim noir is gone.
Also wtf is up with those cutscenes the game cuts the gameplay all the time to throw cutscenes at you, propably so the game can load the maps in the low console ram.
I took everyone out quickly and it transitioned into a cutscene that shows leaving that room and closing the door behind me. But but, the ammo, i was gonna pick up the guns the bad guys dropped, well now i am out of ammo, thanks game.
Thats some amazing game design right there….
playing the most clumsy shooter ever made with a controller…. yeah no thanks.
clumsy? it controlled amazing from my experiance far cry 3 was more clumsy.
Delayed response, especially when going into a dive or jumping out of cover. And when in dive if you manage to touch anything in the claustrophobic environments such as hitting your head on the nearest coffee table or walls it would spaz your camera out and send out of slowmo then get you killed as you fumble to get up slowly.
Also if you managed to have lots of painkillers on you and caught in the open you could end up with the game taking the controls away from you for a minute or two with the last stand garbage.
Fc3 plays like every other fps ever… so i don’t get how that is related.
fc3 zooms in while aiming and slows mouse sensivity also aimassist, basicly tricks for controllers but felt like getting handicapped on pc.
???
Spread the voice ,i want to se what rock$tards and $onytards say about this.
definitivwe edition?
I don’t know ,it probably will feature all dlc’s and maxed pc graphics since is a linear game and it doesn’t look that good (although it remains as the best looking game from rockstar)
To be fair max payne 3 on consoles is equal to low pc settings but just like gta iv there isnt much of a diffirence.
Ironicly the inventory wheel was kinda used in crysis 1. I like it in dishonored you freeze time and choose your tactics.
Have you noticed how every game has a bow and a silde function lately? Its like game developers meet up in GDC and talk about what its “hot” to use in game mechanics in their future games.
Wtf happen to innovation? Who makes those games? Interns who go through the same courses and same lessons on how to “make slide function in game”
Seriously wtf and ubisoft is worse, ubisoft has thousand of employes and they recycle the same gameplay mechanics and even the same weapon assets in their games.
Crysis 1 didn’t have a inventory whel ,the weapons were on the right corner and the nanosuit modes did actually fit with the wheel.
now ,let me correct you on those first two statements:
1) Max Payne on LAST GEN consoles has low presets ,and belive me ,is not the same at all.
2) Grand Theft Auto IV maxed out CRUSHES the ps3 version and the Xbox version ,specially when it comes to textures ,shadows resolution and draw distance.
Also if we are talking about gaming in general ,i think its time to get rid of that stupid Health Regeneration ,it is starting to anoy me more and more with each game.
After that we should make them stop with the dlc bullshit.
meh, i played some garbage games that would be better with health regen, chaser, kingpon, el matador, vivisector, the problem is that eveyone copies each other, why must every game have the same mechanics? Especially not reallizing why they even do it.
The new craze is to make repettive linear games with good story, so you fall into believing you are playing a long game and believing its amazing due to its story, bioshock infintie last of us,etc etc
It does look good at times, at least Rockstar added the DX11 stuff, MSAA, HDAO and high resolution textures, not not sure why but some of them look pixelated. I prefer SC Blacklist though, really nice NVIDIA enhancements and a crisp look, shadows look stunning.
Yeah, the wheel is so f*cking annoying, joypad shooting, LoL
