Every time E3 rolls around, a certain excitement is felt throughout the entire gaming industry. Studios are excited to show what they've been working on and gaming enthusiasts are able to see what the future of video games looks like. While that excitement is certainly felt across the board for anyone who loves games, there's also a little disappointment after E3 ends each year for those hoping to see a specific game that turned out to be nowhere to be found. There's plenty to be seen next wee...

**Fortnite ** Chapter 3 is now on its tenth week of challenges, which means there is not much time left before we will have a new season once again in Battle Royale. With every new week leading up to a new season, players are given weekly quests to complete and, in turn, are rewarded with a hefty amount of XP. For each completed quest, 25K XP will allow players to level up and claim Battle Stars to unlock new items in the Battle Pass. Weekly quests always hold a good variety of tasks for pla...

A new **Fortnite ** season means a brand-new Battle Pass for players to get their hands on. Like with every other season, Chapter 3 Season 2's Battle Pass features a new set of unlockable skins, cosmetics, Fortnite Battle pass and additional V-Bucks. As players level up, they'll unlock Battle Stars, which can then be used to purchase items in the Battle Pass. They can be unlocked in any order, as long as the player has unlocked the corresponding page. As the player unlocks more items, more pa...

**Fortnite ** Battle Royale has released another set of weekly quests. With week nine quests released, players can be granted a total of 175,000 XP upon completing them all. Fortnite quests are a straightforward sequence of steps players take as they explore the map. Think of them as perk quests, as each quest will grant players 25,000 XP, which is a significant chunk when thinking of leveling up. Its no doubt that completing these challenges is the fastest way for players to level up their ...

This season has not disappointed _Fortnite fans, with everything from an entirely new map and the highly anticipated return of Tilted Towers. There is still a month until the new season is released, so players should have no problem reaching level 200 and maxing out the Battle Pass.

While Molyneux’s inventive mindset gave rise to the "god game" genre (a genre loved by many a PC gamer), he’s also earned himself a number of negative connotations with how he promotes his games. It’s become a running joke that Molyneux tends to hype up any project he invests in to absurdly high levels, only to have the games miss their mark in one way or another. Fable became one of the most noteworthy examples of this "Molyneux Paradigm." During the game’s development, Fable was regarded by Mo...

Choosing to be good or evil was usually straightforward. Several of the main quests had an optional way to end them depending on the outcome, typically spare the foe for good points and kill them for evil. There were a couple quests where there were two available quests but they were the same event, the choice was just to determine what side the player was on which actually was a cool way of making it feel like you were choosing a side. A more fun way to rack up the evil points was to just go on...

With a sprawling, graphically intense world part of a near fifteen-hour campaign, Fable: The Journey breaks any conceptions of what a Kinect title can be. It’s not demo material or a novelty release, but an uncompromising adventure Game updates game that weaves an engrossing story while utilizing the full potential of motion control. It doesn’t always work flawlessly, but the sheer ambition alone makes it a must-own for Fable and Kinect fans alike. The combat mechanics played a big part in cr...

Game trailers are one of the most effective marketing tools for developers, since just a few minutes worth of video can drive hype and excitement to overflowing levels within the gaming community. Throughout this year, gamers have been entertained by some of the most impressive trailers ever released. Like most gamers, our team at Game Rant has enjoyed many of the games released this year, and looks forward to the games set to release in the next year. Much of that excitement spurs from the ...

Fable was one of those titles that caught my attention well before its release in some article in a game magazine back when paper gaming magazines were still in abundant supply. How far exactly before the release is uncertain, but I want to say it was well over a year before Fable's launch, possibly even as far back as 2002 or 2003 when it was still called its working title Project Ego. Open world gameplay has practically become the standard in modern game design, but this was not the case in th...

Another cool feature is that of photograph locations throughout the map that when touched display a viewpoint from the original Xbox game. This is quite nifty as it allows you to match up with your television and see exactly what has been improved for the Anniversary edition. It’s also said that backgrounds for key players have been written and are viewable upon meeting them, but I was unable to find how to access these. A title update will be supposedly be released on launch day, so perhaps the...

The final new feature in Fable Anniversary (besides achievements) is that of SmartGlass, something that is weighing heavier and heavier in overall experience these days. As admitted by Lead Designer Ted Timmins, it was basically implemented here as way to test the technology’s capabilities for future implementations. Thanks to that, there are actually a few interesting features that the app offers. Unsurprisingly, it’s basically an interactive map, but they’ve worked with Prima to also provide t...
