The Banner Saga is a Viking-themed tactical role-playing video game by Stoic, a trio of indie game developers formerly of BioWare. It was released as a single player campaign, The Banner Saga – the first game of a projected trilogy – on 14 January 2014, as well as a separate free-to-play online multiplayer game, The Banner Saga: Factions, in February 2013.

The core of the game is a single-player campaign of turn-based combat engagements inspired by games such as Final Fantasy Tactics and Shining Force, with the player controlling and being able to build up a party of characters with complementing abilities.

According to the developers, their aim was to create a "mature game for adults in the vein of Game of Thrones or The Black Company". They intend to engage players emotionally by allowing them to build relationships with the game's characters and shape the outcome of the story through an array of conversation choices. The game eschews certain conventions of action-oriented computer role-playing games such as the focus on a young lone hero's story, looting and buying items, or reloading a saved game state after defeat. Instead, the developers intended to tell the story of the player's caravan as a whole, and encourage players to accept and deal with the consequences of any defeats they may encounter.

The first game in the Saga centers on the return of the Dredge, a warlike race that despises humans led by the Bellower, a nigh invincible Dredge who leads them on a warpath on human and Varl. As a wandering army sent to fight against the Dredge and find a weakness for the Bellower, many difficult decisions are made by the caravan that would shape the fate of both man and Varl.

XBMC is highly customizable: a variety of skins can change its appearance, and various plug-ins allow users to access online content on services such as YouTube, Spotify, Grooveshark and Pandora Radio. Versions from 12.0 (codename "Frodo") have a PVR (Personal Video Recorder) GUI frontend for live TV with Electronic Program Guide (EPG) and high-definition digital video recorder (DVR or PVR) support.

The software was originally produced as a media center application named "Xbox Media Center" for the original Xbox game console, and was later made available under the name "XBMC" as a native application for Android, Linux, BSD, Mac OS X, iOS, and Microsoft Windows operating systems. It is also available as a standalone version referred to as XBMCbuntu.

Because of its open source and cross-platform nature, with its core code written in C++ (ANSI standard), modified versions of XBMC together with a JeOS have been used as a software appliance suite in a variety of devices including smart TVs, set-top boxes, digital signage, hotel television systems, and network connected media players. Derivative applications such as MediaPortal, Plex, ToFu, and Voddler have been spun-off from XBMC. Some of them, such as Boxee, have been certified by the XBMC Foundation and developers and are designated as "Powered by XBMC" or "''Designed for XBMC".

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (Japanese: メタルギアソリッドVグラウンドゼロズ Hepburn: Metaru Gia Soriddo Faibu Guraundo Zerozu?) is an action-adventure stealth video game developed by Kojima Productions and produced by Konami.[5] It is part of a sub-series of prequels in the Metal Gear series, taking place after Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Ground Zeroes will stand alone as the first part to Metal Gear Solid V, acting as the prologue for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.[6] The game follows Big Boss' infiltration in American black site on Cuban soil called Camp Omega for the extraction of both Cipher agent Pacifica Ocean and Sandinista child soldier Ricardo "Chico" Valenciano Libre.

The game offers new methods of sneaking and traversal methods as well as choose in what order the story events take place by selecting missions in any order they like. The game was originally set to be released alongside The Phantom Pain but long development time resulted in director Hideo Kojima splitting the project in two parts so that players will get an early access to Metal Gear Solid V. Critical reception to the game has been generally positive with praise aimed towards its mechanics, voice-acting, story, and graphics, with criticism aimed towards its short length.

Cari FreeFree,
visto che i componenti 'bonus' delle puntate iniziano a latitare...perchè non chiediamo a gran voce ai GURU di FreePlaying di inserire Biggio fisso quando può?

Chi è con me, si faccia avanti...Più siamo e più il sempresardo Biggio magari ci sta...e pure Bruno e Simone

No vabbè, neanche vi sto a spiegare che cosa è Rat-Man...cioè...se non lo conoscete vergognatevi, sì, vergognatevi. Non meritate neanche un link a wikipedia.

Quello che vi voglio dire, a chi non ha avuto modo di seguirlo tutto, che da questo mese (il 6 Marzo per chi è più pignolo) per i prossimi infiniti mesi uscirà in edicola Rat-Man Gigante: non è altro che la ristampa dal numero 1 in versione 'Gigante'. Perchè le dimensioni contano...

Oltre alla storia ci sono degli articoli correlati che raccontano un po' il mondo di Rat-Man. Io lo sto prendendo perchè Rat-Man l'ho sempre letto ma mai posseduto...certo qualcosa mi è sfuggito...non sono perfetto...mi ci avvicino, ma non sono perfetto.

In parallelo continua il rilascio di Rat-Man collection che ha superato il fatitico numero 100...

South Park: The Stick of Truth is a role-playing video game, based on the American animated television series South Park. The game was developed by Obsidian Entertainment in collaboration with South Park Digital Studios and published by Ubisoft. The game was expected to be released sometime in 2013, for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles, and Microsoft Windows, but was postponed to 2014, due to the shutdown of original publisher THQ and numerous delays.

Similar to their duties on the TV show, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone wrote the script for the game, oversaw the project, and provided the voices of the characters. Details about the game were revealed in early December 2011, in the Game Informer magazine South Park special, and its digital version.

Gravity Rush, known in Japan as Gravity Daze (グラヴィティデイズ/重力的眩暈:上層への帰還において彼女の内宇宙に生じた摂動 Guraviti Deizu / Jūryoku-teki memai: jōsō e no kikan ni oite, kanojo no nai-uchū ni shōjita setsudō?) is an action-adventure video game developed for the PlayStation Vita.[5] Directed by Keiichiro Toyama and written by Naoko Sato (previously known for the Siren series and the first Silent Hill), the core mechanics of the game is the player's ability to manipulate gravity, allowing unique movements and navigation.[6] The graphics are cel-shaded, which in Toyama's opinion stand out from the western photorealistic trend.[7]

The game started off back in 2008 as a PlayStation 3 project called Gravité,[8][9][10][Note 1] before being eventually transferred to PS Vita. AI and visuals were slightly simplified during the process.[7] However, Gravity Rush director thinks overall Vita suits the game better, because of "its handy and accessible nature" and "the impression of a different world existing beyond the screen" the player gets by tilting the device.[7]

Killer Is Dead takes place in the near future, including such technology as lunar tourism and cybernetic enhancements. The main character is an executioner named Mondo Zappa (voiced by Ryotaro Okiayu in the Japanese version and Patrick Seitz in the Western version) who receives jobs from the Bryan Execution Firm. This firm, run by a cyborg named Bryan Roses, tasks Mondo with killing dangerous criminals and assassins from around the world.[4] Mondo wields a sword with his right hand but his cybernetic left arm can be converted into many different weapons, including guns, drills, and other objects. Although Mondo travels the world as part of the game, Suda calls it a "personal story" of "a man who doesn't show himself much in the public world but still worms his way into society and mercilessly eliminates the evil dispersed in it". "Love and execution" and "how far can you protect someone" are also central themes of the story.
