More Skyrim
Amazon.de has revealed a page showcasing a newly revamped edition of the hugely successful Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. Although nothing official has been announced by Bethesda, Amazon isn't usually the type to put products onto their website without the acknowledgement from the seller first.
The new premium edition, which according to Amazon will be available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland on December 7th, will include the original game, along with a bunch of extra physical and digital content.
The product will include a map of the world of Tamriel, a t-shirt with the emblem of the Empire, Hell City:

Since the moment I saw the first trailer for Dishonored I have been going on and on about how good it looks and how much I am anticipating it. But being a PS3 owner, I am sort of dreading how it will play on the PS3 as well.
It is a well-known fact that Bethesda has been horrible to PS3 owners. Why do I say so? Well let's just take Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim into consideration. On PC and Xbox 360 it is perfect. On the PS3 there is a massive glitch that you only get to find out after playing the game for a while.
On top of that, DLCs always take forever to get to the PS3 and even when they are released, it is full of bugs! You all know that the latest DLC for Skyrim, Dawnguard, took forever to release. What many don't know is that Bethesda had to work real close with Sony in order to get Dawnguard to even work properly on the PS3!
The only ray of hope I see here is that Arkane Studios is mainly responsible for development. I hope they prioritized both consoles when developing

Hey there guys! Recently I showed you guys a new trailer out for Dishonored, promptly named "Creative Kills", that showed off the creative ways with which players can go about their assassinations. Today I bring to you a "new new" trailer that shows all the aspects that one must consider when sneaking about in the game.As Arkane Studios mentioned before, they have developed the game such that players have complete freedom in choosing a playing style; they can choose to be aggressive or sneaky. However, the whole game is primarily meant to be played in stealth mode and if I am not wrong, most of you will agree with me in the fact that it is much more fun playing stealthy anyways!
As the main character Corvo, we will have at our disposal a wealth of gadgets and weapons to help us in our missions. The powers range from short range teleportation or "Blink" to "Possess" which lets you control ALL non-player characters in the game. You can even possess rats and fish!

As we have said before, Dishonored is shaping up to be a great game. If you guys don't know, Dishonored follows the story of Corvo (an assassin with super natural powers) as he sets to get revenge on all who wronged him and finally set things right. The entire game is about revenge as evidenced by the game's tag line "Revenge solves everything".
The game to me feels like a mash up of Assassin's Creed and Bioshock, which is why I am so psyched for it! Players will have at their disposal a wealth of gadgets, weapons and powers with which to slay their enemies. A recent gameplay trailer not only shows a few of the cool powers and weapons players will get but, also how to combine the powers to kill the enemies in creative and fun ways!
My favorite is the "Friendly Fire" where you first get an enemy to shoot at you and then "Bend Time" to stop the bullet in mid air, and then "Possess" the other individual to place him in the path of fire; end result is that he shoots himself!

Bethesda Softworks has recently revealed their star studded cast behind Dishonored. If you guys have been following our posts then you already have quite a bit of an idea about Dishonored.
To give you guys a summary, Dishonored follows the story of Corvo. Once he was the legendary swordsman of Dunwal and the protector of the Empress of Dunwal. Unfortunately, he gets falsely accused of the Empress's murder and is sentenced to life in Dunwal's dungeon.
A mysterious being soon approaches Corvo and lends him supernatural powers and grants him freedom from his prison. With his new found powers Corvo now sets off to seek revenge on those who killed the Empress and left him to rot.

"Force, Balance, Push" is Now Trademarked
"Fus Roh Dah", the shout from Skyrim that has become an Internet meme is now officially trademarked. Yes, the shout that sends things flying across rooms like a candy wrapper in a tornado, was gaining so much popularity, its creators had to lock down the ownership of the slogan.
Bethesda's parent company, Zenimax, went into the process of filing a number of trademark applications that are directly related to the saying. This includes things from merchandise to it's use in future games. When reached for comment about this, Bethesda claimed that they were protecting
