Untold Legends Dark Kingdom

Features

The handheld hack-and-slasher stomps its way onto the PS3 this November

They've also hinted that Dark Kingdom will encourage players to find creative (and convincingly realistic) ways to use the environment to their advantage. Throwing crates around is a no-brainer, and smashing structures or bouncing monsters off walls will also be possible. And if you're feeling especially sadistic, you can pick up an enemy and use him to bash other, even less fortunate enemies. Add the promise of online play and hundreds of useful in-game objects for obsessive item-hunters, and Untold Legends Dark Kingdom is just one more reason for role-playing fans to look forward to launch day.

After graduating from college in 2000 with a BA in journalism, I worked for five years as a copy editor, page designer and videogame-review columnist at a couple of mid-sized newspapers you've never heard of. My column eventually got me a freelancing gig with GMR magazine, which folded a few months later. I was hired on full-time by GamesRadar in late 2005, and have since been paid actual money to write silly articles about lovable blobs.
