Tear off your own head in NeverDead… Wait, what?

You had better prepare yourself for ample amounts of crazy before you play NeverDead, the latest IP developed by Rebellion studios and published by Konami appears to be equal parts Devil May Cry and Shadows of the Damned. Now if that doesn’t get you interested to play the game I honestly have no idea what will. Players take on the roll of Bryce, an immortal demon hunter that is on a quest for vengeance and is hell bent on killing the lord of the underworld (sounds familiar eh?). Five hundred years ago, Bryce challenged the aforementioned king of demons and got his wife murdered in the process. As punishment, he was cursed with immortality. The story seems like your usual “guy gets pissed off, guy gets revenge” plot, but for the type of game this appears to be, it’s pretty much what you would expect.

Final Fantasy XIII-2: Hands On Preview

The Final Fantasy brand has been suffering of late and it has seemed for a while that no amount of phoenix downs could save it.  Final Fantasy XII was critiqued for deviating too far from the series’ roots, Final Fantasy XIII was criticized for its nearly nonsensical storyline and extreme linearity, andFinal Fantasy XIV was so colossally bad that Square-Enix just started charging its customers the proposed monthly fee to play for a game that was released well over a year ago.
