Remember artist Baolong Zhang? What was that? No you say? Shame on you then. Zhang has been creating a character model on Unreal Engine 3, inspired by BioWare’s sci-fi franchise, Mass Effect. This characters shows – pretty much – what we can expect from a next-generation Mass Effect game. The interesting part here is that – unlike other renders – this is a real-time character, created on Unreal Engine 3. In other words, this is no CG bullcrap, but 100% real-time. Thankfully, the artist is back with a punch, and has released a new set of screenshots from his updated model. Enjoy!

Expect to hear more about both Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 as these two titles may change everything we know about PC games. CD Projekt RED’s CEO was interviewed by TVN CNBC and revealed that the trailer of Cyberpunk 2077 represents the level of in-game graphics that they’re aiming for. Now this could obviously mean two things: a) the visual style of the game will be similar to the trailer and b) that the overall quality of the graphics will be pretty close to the CG. Continue reading CD Projekt RED: “Cyberpunk 2077 trailer represents the level of in-game graphics we are aiming for”→
Activision has revealed that its FPS title, based on The Walking Dead series, will be released for PC, X360 and PS3 on March 26th. The game is currently available for pre-order on GameStop and you can view below its first – official – set of screenshots.

Nevertheless, enjoy the shots below and let’s hope that Activision will reveal a new trailer for it!

Okay Sonic fans, get ready for a nice surprise. We’ve seen in the past some awful fan films that were based on SEGA’s mascot, Sonic. Most of you thought that a proper Sonic movie was not possible, right? Well, you were partially right. BlueCoreStudios released today its fan-made Sonic film, in which AVGN makes a cameo appearance. Sonic looks F’ing incredible, though the whole acting is kind of meh. Also, dialogs sound louder than the environmental and special sound effects, making the whole film feel a bit cheap and unprofessional (this can be easily spotted on the Sonic fight at 10:30 mark). Still, this is way better than what we got in the past, so make sure to give it a go! Continue reading Sonic the Hedgehog Gets A Cool Fan Film – AVGN Makes An Appearance→
