Witcher 3 Expansions to be "almost the size of Witcher 2"

During an interview with Gamereactor , game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz has stated that the combined play time of the upcoming two expansion packs of Witcher 3 might very well end up being around the same length as the second game in the series, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. "The expansion packs will be whole new storylines with all the elements you've got in the main story (like cutscenes, new characters, new items, new Gwent cards) and many, many more. They will be quite long. The first expansion will be around 10 hours and the second expansion will be around 20 hours... and I think it's possible that they will be bigger, because it's always like this (that when we plan some time or hours, it's twice or something like this), but I'm not promising anything right now. And even now, if you sum up this 10 to 20 hours and you compare it to The Witcher 2, it's almost the size of The Witcher 2. And it will be cool, it will be new stories,

Batman's Reason to Take Down Superman in Batman V Superman Revealed

For many audiences, Superman's absolute lack of concern for civilian safety during the climatic fight in Metropolis was about as un-Superman an activity as anything can possibly get. Now in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly , director Zack Snyder speaks out about the collateral damage that was shown in the end of 2013's Man of Steel and how that will tie in with the upcoming Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. “I was surprised because that’s the thesis of Superman for me, that you can’t just have superheroes knock around and have there be no consequences,” says Snyder.  It turns out that the destruction of Metropolis will serve as Batman's primary motivation to take down the Man of Steel. Batman actor Ben Affleck also echoed Snyder's statement: "One of the things I liked was Zack’s idea of showing accountability and the consequences of violence and seeing that there are real people in those buildings. And in fact, one of those buildi

Dragon Ball: Super Opening and Ending Sequence Out Online

Dragon Ball: Super made it's debut in Japan yesterday with it's first episode and within several hours of it's broadcast on Japanese TV, the opening and ending sequence found it's way to the internet (via  SaiyanGamer93 and SaiyanIsland.com ) and I have to say if you're a fan of the series you'll find both of them absolutely delightful. Feast your heart out: In both sequences, there is a great mix of all the elements that defines the Dragonball franchise: the humor, the sense of joy and the action. The quality of the animation is also absolutely gorgeous----it's pretty much closer to Battle of Gods than anything we've seen from the series earlier. It all goes to show how much love and sincerity went in behind the new series. Of course, that's hardly surprising as Akira Toriyama himself is at the helm of Dragon Ball: Super.  Ain't it awesome? Alongside the opening and ending sequences, there's also a preview of the second ep
