I visited Obsidian Entertainment a couple of weeks ago for the reveal of the studio's first game for new owner Microsoft. If you remember, The Outer Worlds was published by Private Division, Take-Two's label for partnering with independent studios (Obsidian was independent when the deal was made). This was, then, a significant moment. The game itself was a bit of an anti-climax - Grounded, a small-team survival game with a Honey I Shrunk the Kids hook - but I still got an opportunity to nose around the studio and see what changed post-acquisition and since I visited in August 2017. The answer,

There once was a time Obsidian was making an RPG based on the Aliens universe. That game has since been cancelled, but today we're looking at some art done for the project by Charles Lee. We'll also be looking at some of his other stuff, as he's also recently been involved in the production of Dungeon Siege III. We've seen some Aliens stuff before, yes, but this is a lot more. In addition to the two titles above, Lee has also been credited on games like God of War, Dungeon Siege III, Lair and SOCOM 4 and Twisted Metal Black. Lee is also working on the Gatchaman film due in 2012. CL Design Stu

Yesterday I spoke to two people about Dungeon Siege III. One claimed that playing the demo was such an agonising experience that she cancelled her preorder, the other boldly stated that it was the finest ARPG of its time. I was tempted to make them fight it out by furiously clicking on one another but it didn’t seem right. Not in the real world. Today, there is news of a big chunk of DLC due in October. You’ll have to shell out for this, around $9.99, but it does sound there’ll be a healthy amount of content. That’s if you consider searching for treasure and ruins in a desert full of monsters

If you really, really want to besiege dungeons three-at-a-time, then this competition is for you. In celebration of there first being Dungeon Siege, and then two of it, and now three of it, the lovely chaps at Square and Obsidian have provides three sets of all three games for you guys to win. That’s right: Dungeon Siege One, Two, And Three (Count ‘em!) for you to play. They’re Steam codes, too, so if you already have one of the games you could always pass the code along to a chum. That sounds like a decent prize to me, but what to do to win it? Well, we want dungeon-themed l

The third siege of dungeons arrived a little while back, with Obsidian taking the reins of the Gas-Powered Games-created loot'n'kill fandango. I've been frantically clicking my mouse button at it for the last few days-–an act which I have now transmuted into some words. First point of interest for me in any dungeon crawler: can I summon animals? Silently beating up monsters in rock corridors gets pretty lonely, after all. Also, I'm really very lazy – if there's some companion animal doing half the damage for me I don't need to press so many number keys. Get to it, my furry friend. Dungeon Sie

Blockbuster video games rarely released during the summer. But scale is no measure of quality; and while not all are of AAA-proportions, we'll demonstrate that this summer's schedule could include some of the strangest and boldest titles of the year. We've highlighted the titles that look most promising and organized them by month. So get your calendars out, 'cause it's time to plan out your summer of gaming. Late June Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (3DS, June 19th) What It Is: C'mon. You know what this game is. It's a remake of what some refer to as the greatest game of all time. Ninte
