Xbox has revealed the games that Xbox Games With Gold subscribers can look forward to in December with the final such reveal of 2021. First up on December 1 is Team 17’s prison escape game The Escapists 2. You’ll get to team up with up to three friends as you go about your daily routine to hide suspicion as you escape from a variety of prisons. December 16 will see the addition of management sim Tropico 5....
The Evil Within’s second DLC ‘The Consequence’ will release on Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC on Tuesday, April 21, and on PS3 and PS4 on April 22, Bethesda has announced. The single-player add-on will conclude the two-part story of Sebastian Castellanos’ partner Juli Kidman, and follows shortly after the release of The Assignment earlier this month. A price for the DLC has yet to be confirmed, but if it’s anything like The Assignment expect it to cost around £6....
Pokémon Sword & Shield is shaking up the formula of the end-game of the series and it’s possible that the designs of some of the characters are hinting at how the events leading up to the final battle will take place. There is one fan theory that links the designs of the Champion and one of the rivals to Chess. The Galar region has its own rules for the Pokémon League....
It’s been just over a month since Halo Infinite launched on Xbox and PC and if you’ve had your eye on Razer’s Halo Infinite-themed peripherals like the BlackWidow V3 gaming keyboard and the DeathAdder V2 gaming mouse, you might want to keep reading. We’ve spotted some pretty decent price drops on these two spartan-worthy accessories. Currys reduced the Halo Infinite Edition Razer BlackWidow V3 to £139 just before Christmas, but it has since been discounted even more....
What started out as a Pokemon Fire Red ROM hack on 4chan has since exploded into Pokemon Clover, a game that many believe to be the best fan-made Pokemon game of all time. Containing 386 ridiculous fakemon, many of the features are prominent in the mainline games, and some unique Pokemon type combinationsare included, so it’s certainly an interesting title if nothing else. If you’re looking to build a strong team of Pokemon in Pokemon Clover, then you’ll want to keep an eye out for these powerhouses, as they boast some of the best raw stats in the entire game....
When The Mule begins, Clint Eastwood’s Earl Stone is a 78-year-old horticulturist who is living relatively well: His flower farm business is thriving, he’s getting an award at a convention for being the best daily grower, and he’s got plenty of friends and enough money to buy everyone at the crowded bar a drink. Things aren’t quite so well with his family though. As he is on the road for his job a lot, he is not there to even walk his daughter down the aisle at her wedding....
This article comes from Den of Geek UK. There’s an adage in fandom that tells us “the memory cheats.” Coined by Doctor Who producer John Nathan-Turner in the 1980s, it refers to a kind of Mandela Effect where we improve TV episodes we haven’t seen in a while in our heads. But in the age of DVD and Blu-ray, these shows are now available for posterity. Some of them have even been upscaled for glorious but utterly unforgiving high-definition formats....
More Game Awards, more trailers. I’ve got to be honest, I thought this was a Sea of Thieves update at first. But no, it’s an entirely new game called Atlas, made by the developers behind Ark: Survival Evolved. The studio is called Studio Wildcard and this new venture seems at least twice as ambitious as Ark. The game promises 40,000 simultaneous online players, the ability to build your own ship, conquer lands, and build an armada....
I’ve been playing racing games since I was about three years old, and I’m now 20. Within that time frame, I don’t think I’ve ever experienced a racing title more infuriating than Super Street: The Game. In fact, this has proven to be the most unenjoyable experience I’ve had with a game ever. Interestingly enough, you start off with a junk car that has zero stats. As you progress through the races, you earn money to put work into your car in order to make it look better and increase its performance....
System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition will bring a remastered version of the game to take advantage of modern hardware. There are a few games that have come to define the survival horror genre. Resident Evil is one; Silent Hill is another; but perhaps the greatest of the survival horror games is none other than the Irrational Games and Looking Glass Studios classic, System Shock 2. In System Shock 2, you play as a soldier recently woken up from cryo status aboard a ship in the year 2114....
Mai Shiranui might not be making her way into the Super Smash Bros. series any time soon, but she is available in Dead or Alive 6. Team Ninja reminded Sakurai of this on Twitter in response to Mai’s exclusion from the Terry Bogard DLC for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The fact that the fourth Fighters Pass character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate belonged to SNK was leaked early by a trademark on the official website for the game....
No, it’s not a Pokémon; Platypet is a Temtem found in the waters of Temtem’s floating islands. However, don’t feel bad if you originally thought it was a Pokémon since lots of people did way back in 2018 when Platypet was first created by artist Leopoldo Spagna. The “fakemon” made the rounds online until everyone thought that it was surely the next big Pokémon to be featured in the next-gen game....
The announcement that Netflix’s Narcos was getting a video game adaptation was initially met with confusion by many. Regardless, the adaptation will be releasing in late November of this year. Developed by Kuju Entertainment, the game has you play as either the cartel or as the DEA in the turn-based Narcos: Rise of the Cartels. Characters from the popular show like Murphy and Peña make appearances in the game as well....
This review contains spoilers. “It takes time…” “Are you okay?” It’s a very simple question, but it’s kind of the antithesis of what this finale — and the series as a whole — is all about. As The Affair checks in with these characters one last time this year, it wants to examine how everyone is doing as they prepare to ride off into the horizon. Tragic events have shaken up everyone’s world and so it’s only natural to look at the consequences of those events, but this has been a fundamental question ever since the start of the series....
During the Summer Game Fest 2022 livestream today, developer Striking Distance Studios premiered two new gameplay trailers for its upcoming Dead Space spiritual successor, The Callisto Protocol. While we received word earlier this week during Sony’s State of Play that the game is officially en route to PS4 and PS5 on Dec. 2, 2022, it’s pretty likely that the game will also be coming to Xbox Series X|S and PC as well....
Being a dad in The Forest is tough. The players’ digital son gets kidnapped by cannibals after a plane crash in the middle of nowhere. Such a situation can lead to panic, especially for those who are new to the game. But as always in such situations, panic is also an enemy here, and knowing what to do on the first day of survival in The Forest is almost key to lasting through the playthrough....
While the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing tabletop game is making a resurgence, along with tabletop gaming in general, its future in video games also looks bright as well, with about eight video games on the horizon. Those who traditionally played PC games are familiar with Dungeons & Dragons long-time historical role in the video game industry and RPGs on PC, despite a relative absence throughout most of video gaming’s modern history, especially on consoles over the last decade....
Dark Souls is a pretty hard series. It’s not as difficult as most newcomers seem to think, nor is it as easy as some elitists insist, but it’s a relatively challenging series that understands how to balance difficulty in a predominantly single player game. As ideal as the series’ challenge is, that doesn’t mean FromSoftware perfected every aspect of the franchise. When it comes to weapons there are some great ones, but there are also some that’ll leave you asking yourself “why?...
On this anniversary of the PlayStation 2, let’s appreciate how this fantastic console was perhaps the last time there was a true Wild West in gaming. And I don’t mean that as the last time a Red Dead Redemption came out. I mean games like Samurai Western, Wild Arms, and Gunfighter II–games you probably have never even heard of. These games would never have existed if the PlayStation 2 wasn’t as huge as it was....
Denys Cowan is a living legend. He pencilled the original run of The Question with Dennis O’Neill, laying the groundwork for that character to become a fan favorite for three decades. He co-founded Milestone Media and gave the world Static and Hardware and all the other characters that make you shout in delight when they show up on Young Justice. Hell, he even drew the album art for Joe Biden’s favorite Wu Tang record....
