One of the many demos available to play at E for All this year was the anticipated Sacred 2. If you can’t stand to wait until Diablo III, but crave some slashin’ and some hackin’, this might be the way to get your fix. I noticed during character creation, that the game does not feature any character customization. Once you chose one of the 6 characters, it will be up to you to deck them out in proper gear to get them looking unique and hip.
Events, Gears of War, Xbox 360
Many of us are well versed in the awesome religion known as Gears of War. Those of us who are worshipers of the Gears have been keeping a close eye on its sequel’s launch date, November 7th.
At this weekend’s E for All Expo, I had the pleasure of demoing Gears of War 2 in the brand new Horde Mode. Horde mode is a 5-manned, almost non-stop, battle with the Locust. With each wave, the mobs gets scarier, beefier, and more accurate at liquidating your brains. There are a total of 50 waves. E for All groups were only able to reach about wave 16. Horde mode can also be played in insane mode, where the highest wave anyone has ever gotten is wave 7. Needless to say, the game gets hard…fast! Luckily, it never ceases to entertain.
If you’re anything like me, you probably have figured out an emergency plan for when the zombies finally show up. Go ahead and laugh, but they’re coming. Thankfully, the good folks at Valve have decided to create Left 4 Dead to help us prepare for this eventuality, and we’ve put down our bats to take a peek at how it’s coming along.
