The Last Guardian has made the jump to PS4, but many fans have noted that the game looks very similar to how it appeared back in 2009 when targeting a release on PS3. So the obvious question is will the game be given a visual upgrade now it has the extra power of PS4? The short answer is no. Shuhei Yoshida, Sony Worldwide Studios boss told Engadget: “The vision hasn’t changed since the PS3 era....
This review of The Little Drummer Girl contains spoilers. The Little Drummer Girl Episode 5 Because Charlie Ross isn’t the strong, silent type (she’s the strong, noisy, irreverent, dramatic, smokes-cigs-and-makes-wry-jokes type), until now we’ve always known what what she was thinking. In this episode, that changed. Charlie went quiet, leaving us and Gadi with a question: did her sympathies shift during her month in Lebanon? Is she now a weapon for the Palestinian cause?...
Question, the developer behind experimental game-making satire The Magic Circle, is next working on a South Park project. The California and Virginia-based studio, which most recently released 2019 co-op horror The Blackout Club, revealed its South Park project via a new job listing. Question’s job ad notes that the studio now includes team members who previously worked on Obsidian’s celebrated South Park: The Stick of Truth and Ubisoft’s own follow-up Fractured But Hole....
It’s been revealed that the original Xbox games that have been added to the backward compatibility program will not come with achievements. A few Xbox owners on social media had been asking whether achievements would come as part of the games enhancements for the Xbox One, but sadly this does not seem to be the case. The official line from Microsoft is that, ‘there will also be no Achievements for Original Xbox games because this functionality was also not originally available....
In an odd surprise, players of Obsidian’s newly launched RPG The Outer Worlds have discovered that the game features a surprisingly robust language filter for its custom name field during character creation. More than that, the filter appears to be censoring a spectrum of words that could be considered excessive, including both general religious and LGBT terms. Fans are left questioning why The Outer Worlds is censoring names in a single-player game in the first place, as well as why the filter seems so specialized....

This article contains Irresistible spoilers. This isn’t right. When Gary, a political strategist played with constant anxiety by Steve Carell, enters the civics center of Deerlarken, everyone is smiling. Stranger still, both camps separated by a political divide he engineered are satisfied with the results of their election. This isn’t how politics is supposed to work. Not in America! Yet this is the Twilight Zone reality Gary finds himself in during the finale of Jon Stewart’s Irresistible....
On March 28, Gearbox Software took the stage at PAX East to announce that Borderlands 3 was finally on the way. This reveal was met with much celebration from both those in attendance and those watching at home, but the presentation was not without its problems. Technical issues plagued the reveal of Borderlands 3 at PAX East, and while Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford kept excitement up with his bejeweled dress shirt, the reveal trailer was ultimately shown under less than ideal conditions....

Electronic Arts has announced a new DLC expansion pack for The Sims 4, titled “High School Years.” The trailer displays an authentic teenager experience at Copperdale High, where Sims can go to class and participate in extra-curricular activities.

The Tick Season 2 is as satisfying as it is wonderful. To dig into what makes creator Ben Edlund’s farcical show so good and deep, we spoke to Newman, who also hosts the popular Blank Check podcast, about the experience, as well as what it’s like for him as a professional actor and critic to straddle the line between the two art forms. DEN OF GEEK: Season one was released in chunks, but season two is going to stream all at once....
Another August is here, and with it comes this year’s edition of Madden NFL. Madden NFL has become bigger than EA Sports ever could have imagined when they started kicking around the idea of developing a football game way back in 1986. EA approached John Madden about lending his name to the game. He agreed but famously told the development team that the game had to feature full 11-on-11 games, saying, “I’m not putting my name on it if it’s not real....
From the ridiculous amount of music to the new innovations, Rock Band continues to impress as the top dog. With hype building for Rock Band 3, we here at Game Rant thought it would be fitting to figure out what just may be the Top 5 Track Packs of Rock Band. The combatants below have been tested strenuously by myself, and will be judged not only by the quality of music, but how fun they are to play for the whole band....
PlayStation Productions has dropped the second trailer for the upcoming Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg. The second trailer is in a similar vein to the first one from October, but teases a few more story beats fans can expect when the movie hits cinema screens this February. For example, we now know the name of Atonio Banderas’ character as Moncada. He’s not actually, as previously thought, from any of the games – though he does seem to be a composite of Rafe Adler with perhaps a touch of Katherine Marlowe....
One thing I’ve always loved about the work I do is hearing about people’s lives. I like hearing their stories, I like hearing about the things that shaped them, because they not only relate to me as a fellow human being but inevitably, they are the things that end up shaping what they make. The games they make. The games we love. It’s a privilege to be able to focus on this in my podcast One-to-One which, hey, you should listen to (search “Eurogamer Podcasts” wherever you get them)....
On Feb. 14, Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition upgrades into Street Fighter V: Champion Edition. One of the selling points of the new version of the game is its cast of 40 playable characters. That’s all well and good, but even with the recent release of Gill to the DLC, there are only 39 characters so far. Enter Capcom Cup 2019. At the end of the tournament, producer Yoshinori Ono stepped out to mess with the fans and tease a new trailer, only to act like he didn’t have one after all....
When Supraland: Six Inches Under was announced, it was intended to be a short expansion where the main developer behind the original game and DLC worked with his new team members. As time went on, however, that short expansion grew into something that rivaled the size of the main game. This isn’t that surprising, considering the fact that Supraland‘s Crash DLC was also as long as a standalone game. That DLC was somewhat divisive with fans, as it focused on a smaller-scaled, more puzzle-oriented approach, but it was still awesome....
The date has been set, November 2nd may be a day that lives in infamy, for gamers at least. On November 2nd the United States Supreme Court has agreed to hear California’s appeal to keep their 2005 video game law related to selling video games to minors. According to the Supreme Court of the United States Blog, the case is dubbed Schwarzenegger vs. Entertainment Merchants Association and will be heard on November 2nd....
When a video game company makes enough fighting games, usually we start seeing some connections. Capcom’s Street Fighter introduces a Japanese schoolgirl and she later shows up when Capcom makes a fighting game about Japanese high schools. SNK’s Art of Fighting takes place a few decades before Fatal Fury, several centuries after Last Blade, and about a century before Savage Reign. NetherRealm can’t make a game about DC Comics characters without Mortal Kombat dudes showing up....
