'Monument Valley' Game Developer Creates New Game, 'Land's End,' For VR

  Imagine playing something like Myst , but as a virtual reality game. Now, imagine that this virtual reality game is using the best in modern technology to make everything look realistic, and keep the gamer from getting sick, as is often common with VR games. According to game developer Ustwo, the creator of the hit mobile game Monument Valley , that game is almost here in the form of their new title Land's End , a virtual reality adventure game made exclusively for the Samsung Gear VR headset. Land's End is a first-person game, sort of like Myst , but without all the pointing and clicking, basically because you don't need pointing and clicking in a VR game. Instead, players will use the headset to look around the game environment and navigate by fixing their gaze on items with indicators in that setting. Of course, there's more to gameplay than just looking at things. There are also puzzles that require players to perform actions with their head movements, s...

'Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4' release date: New mode, wicked boss fights and tons of animations cause game delay

The release of "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" has been moved to February next year instead of fall this year. During the Tokyo Game Show, CyberConnect2's Hiroshi Matsuyama clarified the reason behind the postponement, which turns out to be a bid to buy more time to buff up the title.  IGN  quotes Matsuyama as saying that the developers over at the game studio want "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" to be "powered up more" to make it the great conclusion their beloved fighting game franchise deserves and one that its huge fanbase expects.  ADVERTISEMENT The delay allows CyberConnect2 to work on more varying damage animations for every character in the roster, which is the biggest in the history of the video game series. This means that there will be unique simulation for every fighter when they are hit by the enemy's secret technique.  To make the upcoming title more awesome to play, Matsuyama said that they are buil...
