Did you miss out on the closed alpha for Evolve last time it was around? Did you get to play it, but you want to play it more? If so, 2K and Turtle Rock are opening it up for another round of testing, dubbing it the "Big Alpha," with priority spots going to those who visit 2K's booth at PAX Prime this weekend to play some of the asymmetric multiplayer shooter.


For those less fortunate souls who are not in Seattle at this very moment, there are still other avenues to taking on the role of a giant alien beast or a group of merciless hunters. Interested parties can watch Evolve's Twitter, Facebook, and forums for future instructions.

News::Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare Review - Duuro Magazine

Duuro says:"Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare is a fantastic game. Its funny, weird and well balanced. Sure more variety would have been nicer such as more modes or more ways to unlock stuff, but what is there is well worth the price. It looks bloody good and it will always bring a smile to you face. The only major problem I have with the game is the always online DRM meaning that if you are not connected to PSN or EA Servers the game will not work."

Quick, what, besides your friends greasy hands all over your favorite controller, was the most heinous kind of treachery committed during late-night, GoldenEye, multiplayer bonanzas? If you answered Screen-looking, then we are well on our way to being just the best of friends (I would have also accepted choosing Oddjob over and over again). Screen-looking was (and still is, though rare in appearance) a capital offense, with the accused often being branded as a dirty, lying cheater. Friendships were ruined, controllers were thrown, and Im sure somewhere along the line Mountain Dew was spilt.

Ray Porreca of Entertainment Buddha writes: "Lately, it feels as though there has been a large shift in the way that video games are developed. This change is to be expected, of course, as the games industry proves year after year that when it comes to the entertainment world, video games are currently the reining king. As the video game industry has grown, so too have the titles and projects that developers work on, with massive budgets granted for AAA titles that rival, if not surpass, major film budgets."

News::Finally! Peggle 2 is coming to PlayStation 4

PopCap Games has announced that Peggle 2 is coming to the PlayStation 4 on October 14. The game will include Peggle Masters from the original game as well as the Xbox One version that launched May 7.


Just as in the original, Peggle 2 combines elements of pinball, pachinko, and billiards combined with whimsical (did I really just use that word?) backdrops and characters.


This game is sure to be a nice little diversion and any addition to the PlayStation 4 library is great as we wait for the likes of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain , which is what I'm personally looking forward to.
