Red Dead Redemption 2 Gets Steep Price Cut For Amazon Prime Day

Walmart is offering Red Dead Redemption 2 on both PS4 and Xbox One for a 50% off sale price of $29.99. Walmart also offers free pick-up from your local store.

Red Dead Redemption Player Recreates Scene From Dicaprio Movie The Revenant

Red Dead Redemption 2 may have been released a couple of years ago, but there are some players out there reminding us how great the game actually is. The stories that can be told in the game are limitless and intriguing, especially with an online sandbox mode. One Red Dead Redemption player even drew inspiration for their story from both life and art, by recreating a scene from Leonardo DiCaprio’s movie The Revenant....

Red Fly Studios Layoffs Reveal Cancelled Star Wars Project

While we know of at least one Star Wars title that is in development (Star Wars Kinect) it looks like another one was in development, but was canned along with a series of layoffs at Red Fly Studios. The developer who most recently gave us the Wii (and marginally better) version of Thor: God of Thunder was reportedly working on a next-gen Star Wars title up until June of this year....

Remember When Konami Made Video Games

Konami is a Japanese entertainment conglomerate that has found monumental success in the gaming industry. This is the company that has brought us wildly popular series, including Metal Gear, Silent Hill, and Castlevania. Ever since their humble beginnings as arcade developers, Konami has been gaining momentum like a runaway train. This past year, however, Konami has been oddly quiet in regards to any new console releases. Let’s face it, 2020 hasn’t been anyone’s year and certainly not where any production is concerned....

Remnant From The Ashes 5 Of The Best Weapon Mods 5 That Are Just Okay

Dodging, rolling, and letting all hell break loose is what makes Remnant: From The Ashes combat fun. There are more things to it than interesting armor builds and upgrading your weapons, though. With general weapon mods that you get at the beginning of the game, plus special ones obtained from beating bosses, combat has never been more active and satisfying. Some of these mods are highly entertaining and useful. And the others are just… Meh....

Playstation 4 Database Rebuild How To Fix Your Ps4 In Case Of An Anthem Crash

Amid reports that Anthem is having all sorts of negative effects on players’ consoles, here is how to rebuild your PlayStation 4’s database should the worst happen to you. It’s probably fair to say that the release of Anthem hasn’t exactly gone to plan. Even before the game hit shelves, the negative reviews had already started to pour in based on the demo alone. A bad start and things have only gotten worse since then....

Pok Mon The Best Moveset For Eevee And Each Of Its Evolutions

When it comes to competitive Pokémon battling, there tend to be two main approaches. Players will either build a team around their favorite Pokémon, determined to try to make them perform well, or they’ll simply use the most viable, powerful, utterly meta critters available. It’s all a matter of player preference. Those players who prefer battling with quirkier teams, however, have probably tried out a party of Eevee’s evolutions at some point in their Pokémon careers....

Pok Mon Scarlet And Violet Secret Menu Item Puzzle Solution

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are fairly accessible games, but they will occasionally throw you a curveball in the form of a tough battle, confusing mechanic, or complicated puzzle. Actually, one of the game’s trickiest puzzles comes when you’re asked to order a secret dish off of a special menu in order to battle the Normal Gym leader. Not long after entering the Medali Gym Building, you’ll be asked to “order the secret menu item” as part of the gym’s special test....

Pokemon 10 Normal Types That Deserve A Second Typing

Normal-type Pokémon sometimes come across as dull or boring. They have no offensive advantages or type resistances, making them difficult to use strategically. All Normal-type Pokémon can learn moves of other types, some of which are very powerful. However, such moves don’t benefit from the same-type attack bonus (or STAB), which increases a move’s power by 1.5 times if used by a Pokémon who shares the move’s type. Furthermore, some pure Normal-type Pokémon simply don’t make sense....

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl Need To Be Based On Platinum

I’ve been pining for Gen 4 remakes for years, so when I finally heard that Game Freak was hard at work on Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl I almost wet the bed with excitement. Despite the fact I’m not particularly enraptured by Gen 4’s roster of ‘mons, Sinnoh is undoubtedly one of the most gorgeous regions in Pokemon history. Seeing that optimized for modern hardware, with contemporary quality-of-life features and a whole host of mainline games and remakes’ worth of experience seems like a dream come true....

Pokemon Go No Shiny Rayquaza During Raid Weekend

Pokemon GO players are about to have a weekend full of chances to add some addition copies of the Legendary Rayquaza to their collection thanks to a special raiding event. Although in the past, similar events have usually also coincided with the release of a new shiny, it sounds like players shouldn’t get their hopes up for something like that this time around. In a very unusual move, one of the official Pokemon GO twitter accounts seems to have confirmed that there will not be a shiny Rayquaza released during this weekend’s events....

Pokemon Go Trainer Encounter Release And Details

Since Pokemon GO launched, one of the consistent complaints has been a lack of engaging battles that resemble something from the main series of games. Battle Raids are a ton of fun, but don’t quite capture the 1v1 showdowns from other Pokemon games. Luckily, Niantic is finally ready to add a new feature that addresses this concern. After a weekend full of hints, it seems like Pokemon GO is now ready to reveal the plans for a Trainer Battle feature....

Pokemon Go Could Soon Introduce The Ability To Change Forms

A fresh mine into Pokemon Go’s data has unearthed hints that trainers will soon be able to change the form of some of their Pokemon. The ability to change a Pokemon’s form in a number of ways has been a part of the mainstream series for years. However, Pokemon Go sidestepped this by simply letting trainers catch alternate forms of the same Pokemon separately. That may soon change as a datamine of Pokemon Go’s latest update appears to have revealed the ability to change a Pokemon’s form will soon be added to the game....

Pokemon Go Raid Reward Drops Nerfed

The Pokemon GO raids are a fun way for players to work together and beat Pokemon, but the game also gives them several useful items for completing the activity. But unfortunately, Pokemon GO players are now saying that recent changes have made raid reward drops a lot less lucrative. On social media, Pokemon GO players have been complaining about possible raid reward nerfs for the past few days. One disgruntled player explains that after taking part in four legendary raids in the span of 12 hours, they and the other members of their raid party received between zero and three Rare Candies....

Pokemon Go Raids Are Broken Right Now

Somewhere in the last 24 hours, Pokemon GO’s new raid feature broke, which adds to a very disappointing week for the mobile game. The launch event at Pokemon GO Fest in Chicago was a bust, with attendees unable to play. It might be that localized server issue that is to blame, or it might be something different; the only thing we know is that raids don’t work as intended. As of yesterday, raids would start with the spawning of an egg above a gym location accompanied by a countdown....

Pokemon Legends Arceus Desperately Needs To Shake Up The Formula

I’ll admit, I don’t have the same reverence for the Pokemon franchise as many of my friends. I grew up with it and played the likes of Ruby and Crystal religiously, but beyond this I barely dipped my toes into the pool of pocket monsters until Sword & Shield arrived for the Nintendo Switch. As the first major entry on a home console, I was expecting it to redefine the formula and change what it meant to play a Pokemon game forever....

Pokemon Masters Ex Reveals 1 5 Year Anniversary Plans

It’s been a year and a half since the release of Pokemon Masters, the mobile gacha game that sees fans obtaining not just Pokemon but the Trainers that own them. In that time, the game has only grown, with even more characters from across the franchise’s history, additional features like hatching eggs, and even a name change to Pokemon Masters EX (which infamously led to a funny but inappropriate hashtag)....

Poor Plumber The Worst Things Nintendo Has Done To Mario

The Super Mario Brothers have been part of gamers’ lives since the early 1980s. Starting with the Super Mario Bros. game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, we’ve helped Mario save Princess Peach and save the Mushroom Kingdom. Super Mario Bros. 2 switched up the formula, but the third sequel gave gamers more of what they loved. With the newest release of Super Mario Odyssey, we have learned to trust that a Super Mario Bros....
