Moenchengladbach/Germany – Some welcome news for bus fans by publisher astragon Entertainment and developer still alive studios: Their new game Bus Simulator 16 will be released on January 20th, 2016! Virtual bus drivers can therefore prepare to get busy soon in the idyllic city of Sunny Springs!

Next to vehicles specifically designed for Bus Simulator 16 bus and simulation enthusiasts can look forward to originally licensed buses of the Lion’s City range by famous German bus and truck manufacturer MAN. Both in the single player and multiplayer mode, players not only get the chance to drive different public busses but can also create and adjust bus schedules and manage their very own public transport company. Just like in real life punctuality and passenger safety will of course be essential to the player’s success!

Being on time is however not the only aspect that will be rewarded in Bus Simulator 16: The integrated reputation system also takes into account if the aspiring bus entrepreneur manages to master the vehicles’ controls, observes traffic rules and makes the right decision in numerous everyday situations. These range from passengers hurrying late to the stop, jammed and blocked doors or construction sites and traffic jams that should better be avoided. Players also will be selling tickets and should always be responsive to the different moods of their customers. Outside of the bus, varied management tasks such as the coordination of bus routes as well as the efficient planning of personnel are also essential part of the business.

Thanks to the freely drivable city, carefully recreated licensed vehicles and an extensive management part as well as a cooperative multiplayer mode and numerous modding possibilities Bus Simulator 16 will offer almost unlimited hours of interesting and challenging gameplay.

Bus Simulator 16 will be available on January 20th, 2016 for PC and Mac OS either in retail or on digital download platforms for 24.99 Euro/26.99 USD/18.99 GBP (RRP).

December 22, 2015 – Wargaming today announced the new holiday themed combat mode for World of Tanks on Xbox One and Xbox 360 will arrive December 24. The original and festive Toy Tank Mode immerses tankers in a miniature toy-scattered wonderland, putting them in command of a glossy, remote control tank, and will be available to all Xbox players through December 27.

A change of scenery from standard tank warfare, Toy Tank Mode offers a more playful way to battle against your friends in a custom holiday garage, where miniaturized toy tanks navigate around a battlefield of presents. Traversing through toy-made ramps, blocks and gifts, tankers will enjoy an experience like no other, where every aspect of the game including crew voices has been scaled down for lighthearted tank encounters.

The Tier IX, “Toy Tank” is modelled from the French Tier V BDR G1 B and outfitted with a spring-loaded turret that fires suction cup dart rounds that comically attach to enemy tanks with each successful hit. In a rambunctious fight for victory, these carefully crafted toy tanks drive straight from the workshop to the console with special holiday emblems available only during this event.

LOS ANGELES – Dec. 22, 2015 – Leading console accessories manufacturer Nyko today announced the release of the Data Bank for Xbox One, a sleek, streamlined hard drive enclosure that affixes to the top of the console and expands data storage with any 3.5” hard drive. Current enclosures on the market are less visually appealing and are detached from the console, leaving a cable trail and taking up unnecessary space. The Data Bank for Xbox One solves this problem with an enclosure that matches the materials and angles of the console, and simply attaches to the top. You can now purchase the Data Bank at GameStop, Amazon, or the Nyko online store today for MSRP $39.99.

“If gamers purchase at least one new game a month, they’d have to start deleting old games or upgrade storage within the first couple of years after purchasing the Xbox One, ” said Chris Arbogast, Nyko’s head of sales and marketing. “The Data Bank provides the most cost-effective method to make limited save space a thing of the past, in a way that maintains the clean look of the original console design.”

Created as part of the wildly successful Kickstarter campaign in late 2012, “The Road to Eternity” provides a rare and unfiltered in-depth look at how crowdfunding not only saved the studio during one of the darkest points in its history, but led to the creation of one of the most anticipated and highly reviewed RPGs of all time. Pillars of Eternity is often quoted as not only fulfilling promises made to its backers, but far exceeding them. Its overwhelming critical and commercial success has contributed greatly in validating crowdfunding as a movement in funding games.

In “The Road to Eternity,” Obsidian’s talented team of developers Josh Sawyer, Adam Brennecke and CEO Feargus Urquhart who have contributed to such notable franchises as Fallout, Star Wars, and Dungeons & Dragons pull back the curtain on thePillars of Eternity development story, and share unguarded thoughts and testimonials about the bleak lows and the dizzying highs of their journey. The documentary offers a great deal of inside information for fans, as well as a rare look into what crowdfunding can mean to an independent game developer.

Pillars of Eternity is an RPG inspired by classic titles such as Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale, and Planescape: Torment, which features an original world and game system that evokes and improves upon the traditional computer RPG experience. Funded via Kickstarter in late 2012, raising $4.5 million through both backer pledges on Kickstarter and Obsidian’s own website, Pillars of Eternity has been a project of passion both for the development team and for the loyal fans who have made it possible.
