EA Shows Off FIFA 13′s Match Day Feature at Gamescom 2012

FIFA 13 is going to sell boatloads of units, no matter what features it has, but that doesn’t mean EA Sports isn’t aiming to raise the bar for soccer games once more. Building on the success of FIFA 12, FIFA 13 aims to deliver a title that is more in tune with the real happenings in the soccer world, all while keeping the content of the game fresh and as real-time as possible. Similar to the way that 2K’s NBA 2K12 followed the real world of basketball, players will be able to play matches in FIFA 13 that are happening in real life. It doesn’t end there, however.

Become the Hunter in Crysis 3′s Hunter Multiplayer Mode

It’s not often that an established shooter franchise tries to interweave an asymmetrical multiplayer mode into the framework of its other offerings, but it appears that Crytek is trying something new and refreshing with its recently announced Hunter multiplayer mode. Rather than pit two factions against one another in a balanced and fair firefight, Hunter aims to introduce a high-tech game of cat and mouse into the fray. In Hunter, two nanosuit-powered Hunters aim to prevent 14 CELL operatives from reaching an extraction point in what is sure to be the most unique gametype since Splinter Cell’s Mercs vs. Spies game mode. Check out some gameplay for yourself after the jump.

Vergil is in Ninja Theory’s Devil May Cry Reboot

The slick white-haired twin brother of Dante appears to be in the upcoming Devil May Cry reboot from Ninja Theory, as was announced today at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany. Vergil himself appears to have been given a similar makeover as Dante, but his general appearance has been more or less kept intact (although it’s almost a given that diehard fans will complain anyway). Strangely enough, the demon-killing brothers appear to be on the same side in the DmC reboot, and Vergil seems to actually be the leader of an anti-demon organization dubbed, The Order. Have a look for yourself by watching the freshly released Gamescom trailer after the jump.
