General: Iron Maiden to Release Mobile RPG ‘Legacy of the Beast’
Iron Maiden, the heavy metal band, has announced that it will be releasing a free to play Android and iOS mobile RPG that is said to be “action-packed”. The game is based on three decades’ worth of music and artwork as seen on album covers. By all reports, the game will feature recordings of unreleased music.
World of Tanks: Evolving Again on the PS4
With World of Tanks’ PS4 release looming, the Midwestern branch of the Wargaming.net empire is cranking away on the game, making sure it’s all that it should be. I visited the Wargaming Chicago-Baltimore office recently and discovered that having found their feet with the 360 and Xbox One versions, the team exudes confidence about the PS4–so much so that despite the demands of crunch, they had time to talk and show off their hard work.

ARK: Survival Evolved: No Room at the Inn or Anywhere Else For XBox One Players
There’s no question that ARK: Survival Evolved is a hugely popular title for XBox One players.

Blade & Soul: Head Start = No Start
I was hoping to be able to write an article about gameplay in BnS, the first of a new column, but after running into numerous issues installing the game, let alone playing it, this is the sad panda result.
Diablo 3: v2.4 Review – Fun But Flawed
After spending several hours exploring the new update, the question becomes what 2.4 brings to the average Diablo 3 player: A lot of lag for console players from what I understand. I play on PC so I have not experienced this, but there have been wide reports by players on all available consoles that this is a huge problem. Beyond that, there are a lot of things that are pretty fun, but outrageously frustrating at times as well.
