Dragon Age 3 Already in the Works? BioWare Looking For Artists

Dragon Age II came out not too long ago, but that's not stopping BioWare to make, what it seems to be, Dragon Age III already. On Twitter, Alistair McNally, creative lead at BioWare tweeted this (also pictured above):

I'm looking for exceptional environment artists to join me at #BioWare Edmonton, Canada to work on #DragonAge3

Now I'm not sure about how development cycles work, but is development for next installments for games or new franchise begin this quick? All I have to say is "God damn!"

Rockstar Games Releases Screenshots, Max Payne 3 Details Soon?

Well this seems a bit relieving for fans! After not hearing about Max Payne 3 in a few years, it's about damn time that we actually got something. On Twitter, Rockstar Games tweeted links that lead to 2 screenshots for the upcoming game, with a simple small sentence, "He's coming." Screenshots are right below; check'em out!

Still, since the first unveiling in Game Informer magazine, I'm a little worried about how this installment is looking. First off, Remedy, the developers behind the first 2 games, are not involved with the project; Rockstar Games is the developer this time around. As soon as I see some sort of gameplay and what the story will consist of, that's when I'll decide if I'm excited for the game.

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim to Use New Game Engine

The two best bits of news surrounding Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim are that it's coming out next year, and that it's being built on a whole new gaming engine. Bethesda confirmed via tweet that the games engine is "brand new... and spectacular!"

Now while the average gamer may not find this news all that interesting, the gamers who follow stuff like this closely know that this means we won't be stuck with the decrepit "Gamebryo" engine, which has been known for being horrendously glitchy, and has been the structure for Fallout 3 and previous Elder Scroll games, as well as a few others such as Epic Mickey. Bethesda's community man Nick Breckon also stated in a tweet that the engine is being built in company.

I for one am overjoyed to hear this news, both Elder Scrolls IV, and Fallout 3 floored me, but the constant glitching more than once took me out of the experience. Look forward to Skyrim hitting store shelves on November 11, 2011 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.
