Instead, all of them will be available at the same time, and you’ll have to level them all up together. This is where the Knowledge Point system comes in, and it can help you level up things far more quickly....

Deep Silver‘s last game,Dead Island, had ahanging body removedfrom its cover in the US. In all other territories,Risen 2will have the “blood” on the box. Here’s what I find especially silly about censoring a violent game’s cover — surely it’s agoodthing to give a taste of the content on the cover....

Mostly for mobile devices The Entertainment Software Rating Board’s iconic black-and-white ratings are getting a new design this year,Polygon reports.
