E3 2011 News ~ DC Universe Online

More from E3 2011! Sony Online Entertainment has released a new gameplay trailer for their super-powered MMO, DC Universe Online. And it looks like all comes back to that old war-time saying, "The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend".



In an interviw with IGN, Game Director Mark Anderson reveals what players can look forward to Game Update 4; which is set to be released  later this year:
If you're into all things Kryptonian, I think you'll be very pleased with not only Game Update Four but also the next few updates. We've got to give the Man of Steel his due, and he can't be contained to a single update. To start off, we take you to the Fortress of Solitude where Brainiac continues on his march to absorb all that the Earth has to offer. With an army at his doorstep, Superman needs all the help he can get to stop Brainiac from using the powers of his home world against the people of Earth, even if it means developing a fragile alliance with one of his greatest enemies. This is the start of our next series of 8-player group content, and it's got some really jaw-dropping stuff.

E3 2011 Premier ~ Star Wars: The Old Republic, "The Return"

The start of the 2011 E3 Gaming Conference means lots of good stuff for gamers this week.  To start us off, today Bioware released a new SW:ToR cinematic trailer, The Return.

For over a thousand years, the Sith were thought to be extinct after a grave defeat in an ancient war. But a select few survived, fleeing to unknown regions to escape Republic forces. In the centuries since, the Sith have prepared; rebuilding their Empire for the day they would make their return to reclaim what was once theirs and take their revenge on the Republic.
BioWare, the makers of Star Wars: The Old Republic, promises lots more information coming from E3 in the next several days. Check back here for more updates, and be sure to visit  the Star Wars: The Old Republic website for even more great stuff about The Old Republic!

Wibbly Wobbly, Timey Wimey... Stuff

This Saturday, The Doctor will be spotted in two different part of his own time-line.  More confusing "wibbly wobbly, timey wimey" stuff?  Nope.  Just a weeklong lag between the episode airing in Britain (S6-E7) and the one airing in the US (S6-E6).

What  I actually find kinda amusing is that in several recent interviews, Moffett has condemned fans for revealing *spoilers* about the show... yet with the new broadcast schedule, the same episodes are now a week out of sync instead of only one day?  We Whovians are a curious bunch and LOVE to talk about our favorite Time Lord.  Of course there are going to be *Spoilers* abound after Episode 7 airs to the masses on BBC One.

 /rant off

Ok, back to the good stuff.  In one short day, no matter where you live, New Who will be on the telly.  Here's a look at what we have to look forward to!

Episode 6: "The Almost People", which airs on BBC America Saturday evening, is the second part of "The Rebel Flesh" (S6-E5).  It's an action packed episode with quite a surprise at the end.  Two actually.  I'm not going to say any more about this episode because I've already seen it and don't want to risk giving anything away  Yes, I've seen it, because I am an impatient little cuss.  Ummm... I mean I try to stay on the cutting edge and make sure I'm in-the-know for all my followers.  Yeah, ummm... that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it. =)



Episode 7: A Good Man Goes to War is set to air in Britain on BBC One this Saturday. The last episode before a 3 month break, this mid-season cliff-hanger promises to finally reveal who River Song is... though I have no doubt it will raise a lot more questions then it answers.

Be warned though! If you have not seen "The Almost People", the following video WILL contain... you know.  Say it with me.
***Spoilers***
=)

The MMO Spotlight ~ EverQuest II: Children of War

Yesterday marked the release of Sony Online Entertainments 60th free game update for Everquest 2. Much of the new content is targeted at end-game players looking to challenge themselves, including 4 new raid zones. Here's a look at some of the new content...


 

If you're more of a PvP kinda player, the new additions and improvements to the Battlegrounds system look promising. A new battleground map and match type “Vanquish” are now available. The new Champions’ Respite lobbys (accessable by portals near existing battlegrounds NPCs in major cities) are up and ready to allow players to organize pre-match and create cross-server battlegrounds groups.

There are also new Heritage Quests and Tradeskill missions to explore.  And did I mention that Ratongas have been spotted in Qeynos?

You can learn more about GU60 and all of the new stuff available in game at EQ2 Players.
