Mechanized wanzers are making a comeback with Front Mission 1st, a full remake of Square Enix’s 1995 tactical RPG Front Mission that’s headed for the Nintendo Switch Come from Sports betting site VPbet . The game was announced during the February 2022 Nintendo Direct, which showed off the game’s enhanced graphics and turn-based gameplay.

Front Mission was originally released on PlayStation and went on to become a fan favorite, with a lot of deep customization and combat, and a story to match. As in the original, combat will have you aiming at different parts of enemy wanzers in order to damage and destroy them, and customization of your wanzer’s loadout is a key part of making your mech powerful enough to withstand the ene…

Actor Harrison Ford will appear in 2024’s Captain America: New World Order, marking his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He has now commented on the experience of making the movie and specifically if it’s fun to make a Marvel movie.

“Uh. Yeah. I mean, there are tough days and easy days and fun days and all kinds of days,” he told Esquire. “It’s a tough schedule and, yeah, it’s fun. But it’s not a walk in the park. It’s not fun fun. It’s work.”

Ford plays Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross in New World Order, and he’s now President of the United States. This won’t be Ford’s first time playing the Commander in Chief, as he first portrayed the president in 1997’s Air Force One. Ford joined New World Order as Ross after the original actor, William Hurt, passed away in 2…

There isn’t a lot of room for newcomers in the fighting game genre. Veteran franchises like Street Fighter, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, and Guilty Gear have dominated the space for years, so the new challengers that do choose to step into the ring usually have the backing of a popular license. Granblue Fantasy Versus is just that kind of rookie fighter; it’s based on a property that’s incredibly popular in Japan thanks to a successful mobile gacha (virtual capsule-toy vending machine) game with RPG hooks, but relatively unknown everywhere else. Versus is, for all intents and purposes, Granblue Fantasy’s debut on the world stage.

Developed by Arc System Works–known for excellent fighting game adaptations of Dragon Ball Z and Persona 4–Granblue Fantasy Versus has a …

Youtuber Jade has just completed what was thought to be impossible in Hades. They’re now the first to complete the game on the hardest setting with no mods or seedings attached. This task was deemed impossible because not only does it involve skill, but it also requires an incredible amount of luck.

Thanks to a PCGamesN report, we know that Dan Haelian, a Hades YouTuber, posted a video titled “Why no one has beaten the max heat in Hades or probably ever will.” In the video, they explain that completing this challenge is impossible because it requires one to turn on every “heat” modifier in the game, a feature that increases the game’s difficulty. With all these features enabled, all enemies receive health, damage, and speed buffs. In addition, bosses also receive the sam…

For nearly three years, gamers have awaited any word about Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas VR. It was originally announced in 2021 as a title for the Meta Quest 2. But as Meta moved on to the Meta Quest 3, further updates about the game were scarce Come from Sports betting site VPbet . Now, Meta has said that GTA: San Andreas VR is “indefinitely delayed.”

In response to a comment on its official YouTube channel, a Meta Quest VR representative stated that “GTA: San Andreas is on hold indefinitely while we both focus on other projects. We look forward to working with our friends at Rockstar in the future.” Meta confirmed the news to IGN shortly thereafter.

There are some questions about how far along the project w…

Over the course of August 23, the new Team Doubles mode will replace Last Spartan Standing in Halo Infinite’s playlist line up Come from Sports betting site VPbet . Spartans, take note… that’s tomorrow.

In the latest Halo Waypoint blog post, 343 Industries outlines upcoming changes to matchmaking. As preparation for the addition of a new ranked mode, Halo Infinite is changing how its matchmaking algorithms determine skill. This will, in theory, improve the accuracy of rank-determining CSR rankings. Additionally, players with too wide of a gap between CSR rankings will be barred from joining ranked games in a party together. That particular change started today: Monday, August 22 2022.

Right from the landmark battle aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, the Halo franchise has almost always been a team effort, even though Master Chief has done most of the heavy lifting in the mainline series. That’s where all the spin-offs and novels come in. As the follow-up to Vanguard Games’ Halo: Spartan Assault, Halo: Spartan Strike is not only a spin-off, but also a top-down shooter that reinforces the notion that Halo need not be limited to the first-person perspective. From a continuity standpoint, Spartan Strike takes bigger risks than Spartan Assault, setting reprisals from Halo 2 while giving more screen time to the Prometheans, who weren’t introduced to the series until Halo 4.

One of Netflix’s soon-to-be released series, 3 Body Problem, is an adaptation of the Remembrance of Earth’s Past trilogy of sci-fi novels written by Cixin Liu and translated into English by Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen.

Dexter: New Blood proved to be massively successful for Showtime, reaching an average of 8 million weekly viewers across all platforms to become the network’s most-watched show of all time.

Sunday night’s finale picked up 3 million viewers, which was Showtime’s biggest finale in eight years, surpassing Homeland Season 3’s finale in 2013 Come from Sports betting site VPbet . 2 million viewers for the Dexter: New Blood finale came from streaming and on-demand platforms on Sunday, with the rest coming from traditional TV.

The numbers for Dexter: New Blood should only grow bigger in the days ahead, as people catch up and watch the series at their leisure.

It looks like Google Stadia is going to add touchscreen gameplay support very soon, bringing it closer to the experience Microsoft is offering with xCloud streaming via Xbox Game Pass, and possibly even offering an experience that more closely resembles games designed for mobile devices.  Come from Sports betting site VPbet

According to 9to5Google, who decompiled the latest software version, it now contains references to “direct touch” and games that support that feature via tapping, swiping, and pinching. It appears that support won’t be universal across games, and it could be a slow rollout to actually get the feature working in bigger titles. With xCloud, Microsoft has touted its touch controls from the beginning, empha…

You’ll have quite a lot of side quests to complete as you explore the nine realms found in God of War Ragnarok. Known as Favors, these optional objectives can sometimes actually be an extremely important part of your gear and weapon progression. One such Favor is “Fit for a King,” which you’ll start during the Main Quest “The Word of Fate.” This Favor requires you to seek out Berserker Gravestones across the nine realms and defeat the Berserker bosses within. There are 10 total Berserker Gravestones, but some of them feature multiple bosses at one time, so be prepared for a serious showdown.

Completing most of the Berserker Gravestones is probably best saved for post-game cleanup due to the intense challenge of each boss and the fact that a handfu…

A Fortnite movie is coming. No, that’s not an announcement, though there have been rumors of a Fortnite movie for some time now. But it’s practically a foregone conclusion that one of the biggest names in entertainment, a brand with its hand in basically every intellectual property money pit right now, from Star Wars to Marvel and much more, is going to get a movie. It’s merely a matter of time.

One could argue that a movie is an old-fashioned way of doing things. Fortnite already features some incredible cinematic live events that players can live through themselves, which ends up feeling quite like being in a Fortnite movie already. But I do think, even in this weird era for movie theaters, that a Fortnite movie would be massive. It’s important to capitalize on the game’s still …

I’ve always thought of the Skylanders series as gateway titles for the next generation of gamers, with the series’ kid-friendly aesthetic and forgiving difficulty serving as gentle introductions to the wider world of games. Skylanders Imaginators is, in that sense, an obvious, almost inevitable next step. With Imaginators, the Skylanders go further along along the gaming evolutionary path, adding RPG-like staples such as full character customisation, loot drops, and a more complex stats system for your weapons/gear. It’s a welcome move for th…

Few automotive manufacturers have a legacy that’s as bold and exciting as that of Ferrari. Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends has the advantage of being able to draw on that rich and thrilling history. It includes 51 cars from Ferrari’s past and present, from the 1947 125 S to the 2011 150° Italia. These are incredible machines; the 1967 330 P4, the ’84 Testarossa, the 2005 FXX–the sleek lines and sharp contours of these cars can quicken the pulse of most any red-blooded automotive enthusiast. Unfortunately, despite having such an exciting stable of vehicles to celebrate, Ferrari Racing Legends flounders, with a poorly designed campaign that’s structured in such a way that even the privilege of driving some of the most coveted cars ever produced becomes a chore.

Magic: The Gatherina Arena is finally available on iOS beginning today, March 25. The digital version of the classic tabletop card game has been on Android devices in early access, but this is the first time Apple users have been able to get in on the fun. It will also function on a greater number of Android devices.

Arena was expected to launch on mobile devices last year, but was delayed in October, citing development complications from the coronavirus pandemic. It has been available on PC and Mac, as well.

Magic: The Gathering helped popularize tabletop collectible card games, and Arena represents the latest attempt to translate its mechanics into a digital format. Wizards of the Coast has made several versions of digital Magic, including Magic Online and the Duels of the…

West of Loathing is not as simple as its art style might lead you to believe. Its black and white color palette, stick-figure characters, and crude hand-drawn art might appear to be devoid of personality. But in practice, its visual simplicity acts as a malleable canvas for its imagination to run away with reckless abandon. West of Loathing is an involved Western adventure game/RPG hybrid that embraces absolute absurdity with mechanical flexibility and comedic personality, making role-playing in its monochromatic old West thoroughly entertaining.

The backbone of the game is its jokes and ingrained humor. Every little thing in West of Loathing serves as either a punchline or the lead-up to one. It exists in the writing naturally–the main narrative involves a bizarre cata…

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 has had some great moments over the course of two episodes, but not consistently so. In Episode One, Barry and Natalia stole the show with an eerie trip through the woods, but only after you suffered through fetch quests and awful dialogue as Claire and Moira. However, when those two were confronted by mobs of enemies and had to fight their way out of a logging village in Episode Two, their side of the story was suddenly the interesting half, as Barry and Natalia did little more than retrace their counterparts’ steps.

Coming off of Episode Two’s dull second half, Episode Three is pure delight, if you can apply that word to the trials and horrors that lie within. It kicks off when Claire and Moira wander through a derelict meat processing plan…

The Yawhg isn’t really about the Yawhg, as it turns out. Though the titular calamity is destined to ravage your medieval village in a scant six weeks, it’s not half as important as the way that you spend your remaining time. And who could find the hours to make doomsday preparations anyway, when there are demons to be slain, magical potions to be imbibed, and artless lute players in need of some comeuppance?

The role-playing game by Damian Sommer and Emily Carroll confines itself to familiar grounds: a rowdy tavern, a gladiatorial arena, enchanted forests–eight locations in all, brought to life by a few whimsical drawings. Each locale houses two possible activities, and each activity occupies a week of your remaining six. At the arena, for example, you might while away the hours …

The developers of Halo Infinite have teased more of the functionality coming to Halo Infinite as it relates to its newly announced cross-play support. In a blog post, the developer said players will be able to join with friends across Xbox Live, Steam, and Discord on PC.

This should make it “convenient to get into a match regardless of which platform your friends are on.” The developer also teased that players will be able to link up in Halo Infinite across Xbox Live, Steam, and Discord, both in the game and through out-of-game invites.

“So what if it wasn’t the truth? It was true enough.”

This line came in the final moments of The Wolf Among Us’ concluding episode, called Cry Wolf and it was an appropriate proclamation given the episode’s murky end. The mystery had been–well, I don’t know if “solved” is the proper word, but the case was now closed and it was time to move on. It was time to reflect on what Bigby Wolf had learned, what his decisions had meant for Fabletown and its residents, whose fairy tale lives of the past had been torn apart by murder, prostitution, and social upheaval. It was time to consider that I might have done the right thing for the wrong reasons, or perhaps the wrong thing for the right reasons. I am still not sure which it was, and the game certainly isn’t telling me.

Early into your first winter in Stardew Valley you might get a short cutscene when leaving your farm. You will spot a mysterious looking character walking around, who runs away after you spot them. This starts the quest A Winter Mystery, which tasks you with tracking them down. While the quest isn’t too difficult to complete, it does unlock an important tool. Here’s how to finish this snowy quest.

Within Remember Me, there’s an outstanding game struggling to be set free, held back by a story that never takes off and claustrophobic levels that never allow the fantastic near-future setting to take center stage. Remember Me is not the game its world and premise hint that it could have been; rather, it’s simply a good third-person action game: entertaining, slickly produced, and flavorful enough to keep you engaged to the end of its six-hour run time. It also stars a great heroine who is both powerful and vulnerable, allowing her to stand out in an intriguing world of corporate influence and lurking danger.

Sonic as a franchise is notoriously inconsistent, offering up some amazing highs, some truly dire lows, and a fair few games that are forgettably mediocre. But then there’s that one weird category several Sonics fall into: games that are obviously, undeniably flawed in some way, but still have that something that makes a Sonic game feel special. Maybe not everyone can feel what makes them great, but for others, those qualities will overshine all of the negatives. Sonic Superstars is one such game, one with glaring flaws that I happen to like a lot.

We all know how it goes by now: Sonic’s arch-nemesis Dr. Eggman is up to no good, and he’s got his eye on a new locale whose resources he can exploit for evil schemes. It’s up to Sonic and his BFFs, Tails, …

Update: The score now reflects the Xbox One version of Thumper, and the review text has been amended to reflect our experience with the Switch version. Please scroll to the bottom to find the updated content.

Despite recent efforts to revive brands like Rock Band and Amplitude, there’s a general sense that we’ve been there and done that when it comes to rhythm games. The staleness of the genre was a concern going into Thumper. It’s a game that runs on rails, where you have to time button presses to match a beat that grows increasingly fast and complex over time, with the primary gimmick being that it’s layered with trippy visuals. But those details don’t tell the whole story. Thumper is like most rhythm games you’ve played before, but it’s also a powerful…
