Modus announced today that the release date for the upcoming survival horror game Remothered: Broken Porcelain has been changed, and thankfully not in a bad way as most game releases are pushed back when this kind of announcement has been made. This time the news is that the game’s release has been moved up! This is an incredibly busy month for games, particularly horror games,” said Shane Bierwith, EVP of global marketing at Modus. “While moving dates forward isn’t common, we’d like to allow horror fans to get their hands on Broken Porcelain early so players can have more time to experience all the great games releasing around Halloween.” Remotherd: Broken Porcelain will be coming out on October 13th, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

THQ Nordic again came through and gave me the opportunity to give the remastered version of a past hit of EA’s, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning a try. The original RPG fantasy came out in 2012 and was praised highly by critics but today, I’ll be checking out THQ’s Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning! In this game, you play as a hero who started off dead but because of an experiment, was brought back to life! You awaken to a world that’s at war pitting mortals and immortals against one another and because your fate has yet been decided, you’re caught up in the middle of it. Now onto the game itself! When it comes to controls they’re easy to get a hold of and the tutorial helps a lot in the beginning and the manual on the main menu is a lifesaver. Wish I could say the same for the camera controls which are, sorry to be blunt, trash as it

You can’t beat that tense feeling of a horror movie; the shift in background music that alerts you to imminent evil and the cliché storylines. If you love a good horror movie, then you’ll probably appreciate games with horror themes too, such as fun horror-themed slots. Next time you are at the casino or playing online, look out for the following great horror themes and their slots. Vampire Princess of Darkness The originals are always the best, and vampires have made great movie themes since day one, so naturally, they have also been used as the basis for lots of slot games.

For most of us, a casino is a place of entertainment, thrills, and a chance to win big. However, for others, it can pose a very different opportunity altogether. In the past, before the days of advanced technology, casinos were locations that carried more money than a bank, scattered across roulette tables and in the bellies of slot machines. It’s no wonder, therefore, that they’ve seen some of the most daring heists committed inside their ornate halls. Here are just a few of the best. Mr. Casino Richard Taylor’s crimes were unique because he chose to avoid the ‘big score’ and, instead, opted to take a longer-term approach to theft from the casino. Taylor was so successful, in fact, that he ended up earning the moniker’ Mr. Casino.’ His targets of choice were the high-roller craps players. Richard masterminded a complex network of complicit dealers and players who allowed the smaller rule breaches to happen, apparently unnoticed to them. Richard’s
