Scheme, seduce, and backstab your way through the French Revolution in Ambition: A Minuet in Power

Machiavellian mayhem on Kickstarter The French Revolution, though a fascinating period of history, is hardly renown for its hearty alliances and political friendships, with a chunk of the crooked, and not-so-crooked aristocracy and monarchy doing whatever it takes to keep their head above water, lest it be removed from their affluent shoulders. I’ve always thought that the grim machinations of that time-period would make a great setting for a good game....

Some lovely Dark Souls II screenshots have emerged

Compliments of NeoGAF, some amazingDark Souls IIscreenshots are out in the wild, and damn do they look beautiful. The locales are fairly reminiscent of the first two games in the franchise, with the standout being this action packed screen of a hero on a wooden bridge, set to the backdrop of giant dragons. I have to say, I’m pretty impressed so far. While there isn’t anything wildly different, I’d say it’s “sufficientlyDark Souls,” and at this point in development, I’m happy with that....
