But I never thought gritty first-person shooter <a href="/killzone-shadow-fall/" data-ref-id="false">Killzone: Shadow Fall</a> would be one of the games to get new, comedic content. Today, however, developer Guerrilla Games and publisher Sony have delivered a pretty funny DLC pack for the PlayStation 4-exclusive game.</p><p style="">Entitled "Fun &amp; Games Spotlight Pack," the add-on includes three new "Spotlight Moves," multiplayer executions that occur at the end of matches. Previously, these included finger-breaking and head kicks, among others. Now, you can do the Fart, Plank, and Comedy Spotlight Moves. The first two are self-explanatory, but the third is a mystery right now.</p><p style="">"It's all fun and games until someone loses a game," the pack's description states. "Show your fallen enemies, not everything need be taken seriously." The Fun &amp; Games Spotlight Pack is available right now for <a href="https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/addons/killzone-shadow-fall-fun-games-spotlight-pack/cid=UP9000-CUSA00190_00-SPOTLIGHTPACK006" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false">$1.99 on the PlayStation Store</a>.</p><p style="">Shadow Fall also recently got a co-op expansion, <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/killzone-shadow-fall-intercept-review/1900-6415806/" data-ref-id="1900-6415806">but it wasn't great</a>.

Being such a big game, it's taken some time for many reviews to crop up, but we've now gathered a sampling of them to give you some sense of what the critics have been saying.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">We first got a look at Original Sin back in 2012, when it was expected to be released last year. Instead, developer Larian Studios turned to <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/larianstudios/divinity-original-sin" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false">Kickstarter</a> last March to secure funding that would allow it to increase the size of its development staff--which, in turn, would allow it to make an even larger game. Nearly $1 million was raised, and the game's release was pushed all the way back to this June. It would appear that time was well spent, as critics are heralding the game--a computer RPG with co-op support and a great deal of freedom--as one of the best in recent memory.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">You'll find a handful of reviews from around the web below, and the official GameSpot review will be coming soon. For more, check out GameSpot sister site <a href="http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/divinity-original-sin" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false">Metacritic</a>, where the game currently has a Metascore of 87.</p><ul><li dir="ltr"><strong>Game:</strong> Divinity: Origin Sin</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Developer:</strong> Larian Studios</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Platforms:</strong> PC, Mac</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Release Date:</strong> June 30</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Price:</strong> $39.99</li></ul><h3 dir="ltr">Eurogamer -- 9/10</h3><p dir="ltr" style="">"Certainly, I have no hesitation in recommending Original Sin to RPG fans old and new, provided that you're up for a challenge from very early on and don't expect to romp through, <a href="/diablo/" data-ref-id="false">Diablo</a>-style.

It's obviously not <a href="/ultima-viii-pagan/" data-ref-id="false">Ultima 8</a> in name (and that's probably for the best, because the Ultima 8 we got in reality was bloody awful). It is, however, in every way that counts, the best successor ever to those classic journeys to Britannia, and a triumph on its own terms as a modern RPG with no shortage of fresh ideas."

That's the nostalgic sentiment that drove it to success on Kickstarter. But what's really exciting about the game is that it proves that traditional RPGs have a lot to teach present-day designers. Freedom, simulation, depth, and respect for the player's choices. There's power in that old blood."

Its quests and combat compelled me to think hard about my actions and choices, which is more than I usually get to say about contemporary RPGs. Its depth, personality, and combat challenges easily allow it to hold its own against the likes of heavyweights like <a href="/dragon-age-origins/" data-ref-id="false">Dragon Age: Origins</a>. These systems invite constant experimentation throughout dozens of memorable hours of combat and cheeky storytelling, and its rich modding toolkit provides the framework for enjoyable player-made adventure for years to come."

Hidden rooms and sidequests are just part of the story. It's a joy to find new ways to interact with the world Larian has created. From getting a dog's help in tracking a killer, to crafting voodoo dolls by putting together a wooden figurine with a needle and pixie dust, you'll be doing new things all the time. The most creative turn-based combat seen in an RPG, combined with a dash of humor, has resulted in a fine stew of gaming. Plus, the game has something important to say about life: 'No one has as many friends as the man with many cheeses.'"

The complete freeform gameplay in Divinity: Original Sin can be quite daunting and frustrating, especially as a player navigates the minefield of the early game without any real direction. Embrace the lack of handholding and complete freedom, and you have an incredible title that provides many hours of entertainment."

From start to finish, Divinity: Original Sin is an incredible experience that is full of deep and engaging role-playing. The true turn-based combat is a breath of fresh air in an industry obsessed with quick satisfaction and it brings you back to a time of tactics and thought. The role-playing potential presented in quests and dialogue options puts Divinity: Original Sin decidedly above its peers in most aspects, but leaves room for improvement down the line. Larian Studios is on a strong path to returning their long-running franchise to the spotlight, for fans both new and old."

I've spent plenty of time with the game and still feel like I've only scratched the surface. In fact, I didn't even mention the art style and soundtrack, both of which are fantastic. It comes down to this: Fans of old-school PC RPGs that don't hold the player's hand and focus on depth and freedom will adore this game. Audiences without that experience will also find something to love in Divinity: Original Sin, because depth and player freedom never become dated."

Likewise, Mortal Kombat's Scorpion was the most-downloaded character in <a href="/injustice-gods-among-us/" data-ref-id="false">Injustice: Gods Among Us</a>, which was also developed by Mortal Kombat maker NetherRealm Studios. "I think there's a novelty to having a downloaded guest character," he said when asked about such a character ending up in Mortal Kombat X. "So I think the chances are pretty high. I don't think every single one of them will be a guest, but I think the chances of at least one of them will be pretty good."</p><figure data-ref-id="1300-2596471" data-img-src="http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/2596471-mk-freddy.jpg" data-size="small" data-align="right" data-resize-url="" data-resized="" data-embed-type="image"><a href="http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/123/1239113/2596471-mk-freddy.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-2596471"><img src="http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/ignore_jpg_scale_small/123/1239113/2596471-mk-freddy.jpg"></a><figcaption>Freddy Krueger in Mortal Kombat</figcaption></figure><p dir="ltr" style="">Boon reiterated this in an interview with <a href="http://www.polygon.com/2014/7/15/5902081/mortal-kombat-x-batman-guest-character" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false">Polygon</a>, saying of the strong Krueger and Scorpion downloads, "It's working out for us, and I'd be surprised if we ignored those numbers."</p><p dir="ltr" style="">As for who this guest could be, a DC Comics character isn't likely--and not necessarily because of the reason you might assume (DC taking issue with such a violent game). "I'd be hard-pressed to have a DC character as a downloadable character in Mortal Kombat X," Boon told Polygon. "The main reason is, I have no desire to cut Batman's head off.

There, attendees can run through a massive parkour obstacle course to try their hand at the kind of free-running, vaulting, and rolling featured in the games. There is even a 25-foot "Leap of Faith" section of the obstacle course that you can try. Presumably, you will be jumping into something padded and secure and not just a haystack…</p><p dir="ltr" style="">Last year at Comic-Con, Ubisoft held <a href="/assassins-creed-iv-black-flag/" data-ref-id="false">Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag </a>presentations <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/videos/sdcc-on-the-front-line-assassins-creed-iv-jackdaw/2300-6411752/" data-ref-id="2300-6411752">on a real-world "pirate ship" </a>and even shot off cannons.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">The latest single-player demo for Assassin's Creed Unity will also be on display at the Assassin's Creed Experience, but Ubisoft did not say if the game will actually be playable.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">In addition, for the second year running, Ubisoft has partnered with Schick Hydro. As part of this promotion, you can visit the Assassin's Creed Experience and a professional barber will give you a "customized shave." The Assassin's Creed Experience at Comic-Con will be open from 10 a.m.- 6 p.m. on Thursday through Saturday of Comic-Con week and 10 a.m. - 5 p.m on the final day, Sunday, July 27. </p><p dir="ltr" style="">If you're able to get into the Comic-Con show itself, you can visit the Ubisoft booth, which is #135 in the Exhibition Hall. There, you can go hands on with Ubisoft's open-world racing game, <a href="/the-crew/" data-ref-id="false">The Crew</a>. If you want to try out <a href="/just-dance-2015/" data-ref-id="false">Just Dance 2015</a>, you can visit the Nintendo Gaming Lounge at the nearby San Diego Marriott Marquis and Marina hotel.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">As disclosed last week, Ubisoft is also hosting various panels at Comic-Con, including <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/articles/comic-con-2014-all-of-the-video-games-tournaments-/1100-6421069/" data-ref-id="1100-6421069">presentations focusing on Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity</a>.

Its standard configuration works just like a normal controller, but the controller can also <span>morph into a Wii Remote-like pointer for other games. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="">The LeapTV system also sports a motion-sensing camera that allows children to interact with the television in a similar way to Microsoft's Kinect technology. The LeapTV will launch this year with over 100 games and videos in its "Learning Library" developed for children.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">In a statement, LeapFrog director Dr. Jody Sherman LeVos said the lack of video game content content with a rating that deems it appropriate for children under the age of six is "shocking." She said LeapFrog designers worked hard to create the LeapTV "from the ground up" to make it a first-rate console for children. Not only does the LeapTV aim to serve as an education tool for children, but it also hopes to help them stay active through its motion-based activities.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">LeapTV has three main modes of play, the first of which is Body Motion, which uses the motion-sensing camera to capture the child's moves. Children can wave their arms to defend goals, karate-chop blocks, or participate in a virtual scuba-diving trip.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">The second mode of play is Pointer Play, which allows children to use the controller to virtually slice through coconuts, swing from building to building, or snap jungle vines. Third, Classic Control mode lets children use the controller as a standard input, using A and B buttons to play various games. The controller can also recognize when it is being shaken or tilted.</p><p style="">As noted above, the LeapTV system launches this holiday for $150. Game cartridges will be sold for $30, and you can also buy games and apps through the system starting at $5. The system has 16GB of memory and comes with built-in Wi-Fi; you'll also find an HDMI cable and a wrist strap for the controller in the box.</p><table data-max-width="true"><thead><tr><th scope="col"><em>Eddie Makuch is a news editor at GameSpot, and you can follow him on<a href="https://twitter.com/EddieMakuch" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false"> Twitter @EddieMakuch</a></em></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong><em>Got a news tip or want to contact us directly?

Being such a big game, it's taken some time for many reviews to crop up, but we've now gathered a sampling of them to give you some sense of what the critics have been saying.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">We first got a look at Original Sin back in 2012, when it was expected to be released last year. Instead, developer Larian Studios turned to <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/larianstudios/divinity-original-sin" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false">Kickstarter</a> last March to secure funding that would allow it to increase the size of its development staff--which, in turn, would allow it to make an even larger game. Nearly $1 million was raised, and the game's release was pushed all the way back to this June. It would appear that time was well spent, as critics are heralding the game--a computer RPG with co-op support and a great deal of freedom--as one of the best in recent memory.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">You'll find a handful of reviews from around the web below, and the official GameSpot review will be coming soon.

Its quests and combat compelled me to think hard about my actions and choices, which is more than I usually get to say about contemporary RPGs. Its depth, personality, and combat challenges easily allow it to hold its own against the likes of heavyweights like <a href="/dragon-age-origins/" data-ref-id="false">Dragon Age: Origins</a>. These systems invite constant experimentation throughout dozens of memorable hours of combat and cheeky storytelling, and its rich modding toolkit provides the framework for enjoyable player-made adventure for years to come."

From getting a dog's help in tracking a killer, to crafting voodoo dolls by putting together a wooden figurine with a needle and pixie dust, you'll be doing new things all the time. The most creative turn-based combat seen in an RPG, combined with a dash of humor, has resulted in a fine stew of gaming. Plus, the game has something important to say about life: 'No one has as many friends as the man with many cheeses.'"

From start to finish, Divinity: Original Sin is an incredible experience that is full of deep and engaging role-playing.

It comes down to this: Fans of old-school PC RPGs that don't hold the player's hand and focus on depth and freedom will adore this game. Audiences without that experience will also find something to love in Divinity: Original Sin, because depth and player freedom never become dated."

Likewise, Mortal Kombat's Scorpion was the most-downloaded character in <a href="/injustice-gods-among-us/" data-ref-id="false">Injustice: Gods Among Us</a>, which was also developed by Mortal Kombat maker NetherRealm Studios. "I think there's a novelty to having a downloaded guest character," he said when asked about such a character ending up in Mortal Kombat X. "So I think the chances are pretty high.

Its standard configuration works just like a normal controller, but the controller can also <span>morph into a Wii Remote-like pointer for other games. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="">The LeapTV system also sports a motion-sensing camera that allows children to interact with the television in a similar way to Microsoft's Kinect technology. The LeapTV will launch this year with over 100 games and videos in its "Learning Library" developed for children.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">In a statement, LeapFrog director Dr. Jody Sherman LeVos said the lack of video game content content with a rating that deems it appropriate for children under the age of six is "shocking." She said LeapFrog designers worked hard to create the LeapTV "from the ground up" to make it a first-rate console for children. Not only does the LeapTV aim to serve as an education tool for children, but it also hopes to help them stay active through its motion-based activities.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">LeapTV has three main modes of play, the first of which is Body Motion, which uses the motion-sensing camera to capture the child's moves. Children can wave their arms to defend goals, karate-chop blocks, or participate in a virtual scuba-diving trip.</p><p dir="ltr" style="">The second mode of play is Pointer Play, which allows children to use the controller to virtually slice through coconuts, swing from building to building, or snap jungle vines. Third, Classic Control mode lets children use the controller as a standard input, using A and B buttons to play various games. The controller can also recognize when it is being shaken or tilted.</p><p style="">As noted above, the LeapTV system launches this holiday for $150. Game cartridges will be sold for $30, and you can also buy games and apps through the system starting at $5. The system has 16GB of memory and comes with built-in Wi-Fi; you'll also find an HDMI cable and a wrist strap for the controller in the box.</p><table data-max-width="true"><thead><tr><th scope="col"><em>Eddie Makuch is a news editor at GameSpot, and you can follow him on<a href="https://twitter.com/EddieMakuch" rel="nofollow" data-ref-id="false"> Twitter @EddieMakuch</a></em></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong><em>Got a news tip or want to contact us directly?
