Top Game Releases Of March 2013

Leo

March 2013 can be called the month of top game releases, with 11 top games releasing. Gamers, are you ready for these:

Also, South Park: The Stick Of Truth was scheduled to release on the 5th of March but was eventually delayed. Otherwise there would be 12 game releases this month.

Amongst the top game releases this month, comes MLB 2K13. Here a little something about it:

Major League Baseball 2K13

Developer: Visual Concepts
Publisher: 2K Sports
Game Release Date: March 5, 2013
Platforms: PS3, Xbox 360
Genre: Sports
Modes: Single Player, Multiplayer
Buy Now: Amazon

According to 2K Sports:

“MLB 2K13 delivers hours of baseball action for any level of sports fan or gamer. Master our signature right analog pitching controls to achieve perfection on the mound, enjoy the authentic baseball environment of MLB® Today featuring real life commentary and statistics, and develop winning players and teams in My Player, Franchise & Postseason modes. Available March 5 for Xbox 360® and PlayStation®3.”

According to GameSpot:
The Good: Great analog pitching mechanics Still plays a good game of baseball on the diamond My Player mode remains addictive.
The Bad: Virtually no changes from MLB 2K12 and MLB 2K11 Lots of graphical hitches and awkward animations Online league support completely removed.

The game is being said to be over priced for what it is, since there is no new change in the game. It’s almost the same as last years as are all usual sports packed games. And the graphics of the game are busted.

BEFORE HE WAS A GOD, HE WAS A MAN
Vengeance is born in the fires of betrayal in this prequel to the best-selling God of War franchise. Six months have passed since Kratos stood over the bodies of his wife and child, his hands stained with their blood – tricked by Ares into murdering the only people he ever loved. Swearing to avenge them, Kratos broke the blood oath that bound him to Ares, but oaths to Olympus are not so easily broken… Sentenced to an eternity chained within a prison for the living damned, Kratos battles insanity at the hands of the Furies. He will be tested as he seeks freedom, redemption for his sins, and the clarity to avenge his family.

According to Greg Miller(IGN):
“God of War: Ascension single player is so good that all I wanted to do was stop playing it this evening. Slitting the throat of a monster with its own blade, smashing open red chests for orbs, staring slack-jawed at one of the most beautiful games on the PS3 – I understood early on that this was the Kratos experience we all know and love; no need to ruin it for myself. I wanted to put the controller down and wait for a complete copy of the game to arrive.”

Gears of War: Judgment

Developer: Epic Games, People Can Fly
Publisher: Microsoft Studios
Game Release Date: March 19, 2013
Platforms: Xbox 360
Genre: Third-Person Shooter
Series: Gears Of War
Modes: Single Player, Multiplayer
Buy Now: Microsoft Store

Gears of War: Judgment is an upcoming third-person shooter that Epic Games and People Can Fly are co-developing as the fourth entry to the Gears of War series, a follow-up that Microsoft Studios intends to publish for the Xbox 360 in North America on 19 March 2013, with subsequent regions following later that month.” – Wikipedia.

According to Mitch Dyer(IGN):
The heavy chord at the end of a Gears of War battle used to be congratulatory. Your chainsaw roared, corpses crumpled, and a thundering hum warned the world what you’d done. In Gears of War Judgment, the sound that used to celebrate success is a comforting signal to unclench your teeth and start breathing again. You probably won’t make it out next time.

BioShock Infinite

Developer: Irrational Games, 2K Marin
Publisher: 2K Games
Game Release Date: March 26, 2013
Platforms: Xbox 360, PlayStation, Microsoft Windows
Genre: First-Person Shooter
Series: BioShock
Modes: Single Player
Buy Now: GameStop

BioShock Infinite, a game that was supposed to release sometime back in October 2012, but with an announcement made by the director, Ken Levine.

Ken Levine had written:
“I won’t kid you: BioShock Infinite is a very big game, and we’re doing things that no one has ever done in a first-person shooter. We had a similar experience with the original BioShock, which was delayed several months as our original ship date drew near. Why? Because the Big Daddies weren’t the Big Daddies you’ve since come to know and love. Because Andrew Ryan’s golf club didn’t have exactly the right swing. Because Rapture needed one more coat of grimy Art Deco. The same principle now applies to BioShock Infinite.”
