12th Annual Game Developers Choice Awards Nominees

At this year's 2012 Game Developers Conference the 12th Annual Game Developers Choice Awards will be presented to thousands of representatives from the gaming community. Many of the games nominated come as no surprise, but this is not the Spike Video Game Awards (see the Spike VGA 2011 winners here ) and the outcome may be a little unexpected compared to the commercialism of Spike's award s


The Brady Games Borderlands 2 Digital Strategy Guide is responsible for blowing the cover off Borderlands Legends . An advertisement for Legends appears in the guide, and a copy of the ad made its way to the Borderlands 2 forums, though the post has apparently been deleted. No matter - images of the add itself are currently all over the net. Check it out be


However, this mobile job listing isn't the only information to be gleaned from Respawn's career section. It seems that Respawn is currently looking to hire a Technical Designer/Scripter dealing with microtransactions. This person's responsibilities will include improvement of the Apex Legends store, event structures, battle passes, and m


Grenier would go on to state that Respawn's goal was to keep players engaged throughout the new season and not wrong them. When Respawn received the immediate feedback, the developer went straight to work on rectifying the past alterations to the Battle Pass. The changes are supposed to be 50% easier to complete, and there will be more changes to come with the recent feedback kept well in m


There are no limitations as to which games are nominated, and the winners will be selected by a group known as the International Choice Awards Network, an invitation-only committee housing 500 leading game creators from all over the indus


When the latest expansion for Apex Legends arrived, the Season 7 Battle Pass received a lot of backlash over the new experience points requirements. The Battle Pass for Apex Legends Season 7 was intended to make the game experience more seamless, but players discovered gaining XP was much more time consuming than bef


To correct this, Respawn attempted to make the player progression in the game more engaging by providing greater challenges for players. The changes were made in a "calculated manner" with the expectation that players would have a better time with updated Apex Legends ' Season 7 content that would be more fulfilling. Especially without purchasing more Battle Pass levels to do so. Of course, the developer didn't count on the amount of grinding this would create, as well as the resulting player backlash that follo


It may be a mobile game, but this is still Borderlands , and that means one thing above all others: there will be lots and lots and lots of guns. The Legends ad promises "thousands of different weapons," which is well short of the "bazillions of guns" touted by the Borderlands 2 launch trailer , but should be more than sufficient to get the job done. How those weapons are acquired, though, appears to be somewhat different than in the console games. The ad notes that players can "collect in-game cash by destroying enemies and purchase new weapons." Does that mean that there won't be any random loot drops or chests to scour? It might. It might also be a clue that that players can get right to the good stuff via in-app purcha


Randy Pitchford has been vocal about his desire for a PlayStation Vita version of Borderlands 2 . As it turns out, there is a portable version of Borderlands on the way - and soon - but it won't be for Sony's handheld, and it won't be a port of Borderlands 2 . Instead, an all new game has been crafted for mobile platforms and tablets: Borderlands Legends , due before the end of the mo

"There are so many unique elements of Apex Legends ," he insisted. "The Respawn team has a strong plan for Apex Legends that will engage fans for a long time to come." He also commented that "... we are looking at how to take the game to mobile and cross-play over time, and I also expect that this game will have tremendous value in As


It's the end of the year, and it's time for rankings and awards. The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu prompted a hundred Japanese developers and industry personalities to rank their favorite games of 2017, and here you can find a translation of the full top 100. Yeah, that's a lot of titles to transl


One way or another, we should know soon enough. New games generally appear on Apple's App Store late Wednesday night in North America (around 11:00PM EST), meaning that we could be playing Borderlands Legends in just two days - unless, of course, 2K Games plans to wait until the last moment and release the game on Hallow
