The past few days have been filled with nothing but Sony’s highly anticipated new console, the PS5, ever since it aired its PlayStation 5 Showcase event. The press conference not only revealed several new titles coming to the system such as Final Fantasy 16 and a sequel to 2018’s God of War, but finally confirmed the release date and price for the console as well, exciting players around the globe. Now if a newly discovered Sony patent is to be believed, players have yet another reason to be excited for the company’s 5th home console....

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade’s Yuffie DLC will be a code inside the box, meaning you aren’t going to want to buy the game pre-owned. The release date for Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is now just one month away. More and more details are being revealed about the next chapter of FF7 Remake all the time, including how those buying Intergrade will gain access to the game’s new Yuffie DLC....

Much of the success and popularity of battle royale games the past couple of years can give thanks to PlayerUnknown’sBattlegrounds, and now more Xbox One owners can see what all the fuss is about without having to pay. With the full release of PUBG on Xbox One going live this past September, Microsoft is handing out a generous offer for the few players who have yet to drop in at no cost to them....

At long last, Tetris and Puyo Puyo fans on PC can finally experience the glory that is Puyo Puyo Tetris 2. While essentially a refined version of the previously released Puyo Puyo Tetris, this second offering adds some new features, brings some extra modes, and even includes a cameo appearance by Sega mascot Sonic the Hedgehog. It’s the definitive puzzle game experience! You can currently nab it on Steam for $29....

The wasteland is open once again as id Software and Avalanche Studios launched Rage 2 earlier this week. As expected, the open world features plenty of unlockables and Easter eggs for players to track down including one that pokes a bit of fun at SpaceX and Tesla CEO, Elon Musk. The shooter also brings back a popular 90s trend that has quickly fallen to the wayside in modern times. Players can unlock and activate cheat codes to use while playing, ranging from new announcer voices to one that essentially turns the player into one punch man....

Season 3 of Rainbow Six Siege has been an interesting one, almost experimental on some levels, as the competitive shooter added in a limited time PvE mode called Outbreak earlier this year. That was followed up with the addition of a pair of Italian operators, one who uses offensively minded cameras and the other that can utilize holograms to confuse and spot enemy players. In advance of the Rainbow Six Siege pro tournament in Paris later this month, Ubisoft revealed the next season 3 operation known as Grim Sky....

Several months ago, Ubisoft declared that additional PvE content akin to the limited time Outbreak event in Rainbow Six Siege is being planned for future seasons of the multiplayer game, but the company stopped short of unveiling any concrete details. Of course, with Year 4 arriving, there’s a good chance fans could get more PvE information from the publisher and developer soon. However, Ubisoft has decided to focus its most recent announcement for R6S on what’s going to be included in the title’s Year 4 Season Pass....

A few days before Ratchet And Clank: Rift Apart launched, its official Twitter account tweeted a crossover image of the lombaxes and Fizzie, the loveable and largely forgotten-by-the-masses mascot of Sunset Overdrive. This led to Fizzie’s official account - unverified, of course - breaking its three year radio silence to reply. Sunset Overdrive fans went into overload. Unfortunately, I knew the truth. I was under review embargo, but Fizzie was simply a reference to the interdimensional powers of the RYNO 8, and possibly the collectible Overcharge cans too....

Red Dead Redemption 2 went through a long while with no updates in sight, but last month marked a large update that added new missions, new gear and the new Naturalist role. Now, a new leak suggests that a new major event is coming to Red Dead Online soon. Red Dead Redemption 2 is filled with Easter eggs and players can always find strange occurrences all over the map. Some sightings have interesting backstories and trigger missions, while others like the Pagan Ritual Site Mystery, have never been solved....

Red Dead Online players are getting upset with Rockstar’s lack of updates, so they’ve decided to protest by dressing up as clowns. Because that makes sense. Well, it makes more sense with a bit of background info. Red Dead Online hasn’t had a major content drop since the end of last year. Since then there’ve been minor updates, bug fixes, and tweaks, but nothing to write home about, and certainly nothing to get excited about....

Despite Red Dead Redemption 2 having a robust story and a lot of story-related content, it seems that there was supposed to be even more, if newly uncovered player discoveries are anything to go by. According to some Red Dead Redemption 2 players, they managed to find a story-related mission for Arthur Morgan in the New Austin area of the game. The reason why this is so strange is because Arthur never really gets an opportunity to travel to New Austin....

Reports from earlier this year noted a developmental shift in Rockstar Games that in turn would affect its games moving forward. The prime example given from these reports was Grand Theft Auto 6, which supposedly has shifted to an incremental development schedule in response to “crunch” backlash. While the more immediate effects of this new approach will likely affect the next game in the massively successful franchise, the next Red Dead Redemption entry may see some significant changes as well....

On May 18, 2010, Red Dead Redemption was first released to the world, making it a 10-year-old game now. It was technically a follow up to Red Dead Revolver, but one that blew its predecessor out of the water, setting up a successful Wild West legacy that Undead Nightmare would capitalize on and RDR2 would perfect. When people think of video games, they don’t really think of westerns. And when people think of westerns, they don’t typically think of video games....

On February 5, 2021, the world lost an incredible and well-loved actor, Christopher Plummer. He began his acting career as early as 1952, going on to be in tons of different theatre, television, and movie roles. He was probably most known for his portrayal of Captain Von Trapp in The Sound of Music, but he had over 100 movie role credits alone. He was born in Canad,a but the roles he portrayed not only took him all over the world, but put him in households everywhere....

The Big in Japan sale is now live on the UK and US PlayStation storez and huge titles like Persona 5 and Yakuza 6 are cheaper than ever. The PS4 dominated during the current console generation, becoming the fourth best-selling console of all time. The reason for this success was due to the PS4’s incredible line-up of exclusives, and Persona 5 is one of the best on the system. The people who are willing to shell out a little more to check out the definitive version of the game can also play Persona 5 Royal, which adds a ton of new content to the story....

Photo Mode is arguably one of the best additions to consoles in recent memory. Previously limited to folks willing to hook up their system to a PC with a capture card, now anybody with a new PlayStation, Xbox, or Switch can easily snag a few pics of their own. Over on the PlayStation Blog, developers and other industry employees are sharing their best screenshots of 2020, showing of some of the most beautiful games of the year....

Today, Sony announces the three new games that have been added to PlayStation Now, its cloud-based subscription service. Players will be able to trek across a nuclear wasteland in Metro Exodus, become a supernatural assassin in Dishonored 2, and engage in thrilling high-speed races in NASCAR Heat 4. The first of these games, Metro Exodus by 4A Games, is the latest in the Metro series, which began with the book Metro 2033 by author Dmitry Glukhovsky....

The Pokémon games introduced the Grass-type from the start, meaning most players are knowledgable in the move sets. Grass is one of trainers’ potential starter Pokémon, as well as encountered throughout most of the games frequently — whether it’s a console game, Go, or something else entirely. Some Grass-type moves aren’t taught by trainers for good reason. Others fly under the radar and are lesser-known, even though they perhaps should not be....

If there’s any Pokémon that has the ability to inflict PTSD on players of the fourth generation, it’s most certainly Garchomp. With amazing typing, some utterly ridiculous stats, and a high level paired with great moves, Cynthia’s Garchomp introduced many players into the oppressive world of competitive Pokémon. However, Cynthia was only the beginning, and Garchomp would go on to dominate the higher tiers of competitive Pokémonfor years. Crafting the perfect battling monster surely isn’t easy, so we’ve compiled some of the five best and five worst movesets for the Mach Pokémon, Garchomp....

They say the sequel is always the hardest project, with the success of the first generation they had to make sure to deliver and some. Learning from the mistakes of the first, there were far fewer workarounds in gen 2. Psychic types don’t rule all anymore and move selection was tightly controlled, forcing players to strategize for a battle more tactically. On top of that, Dark and Steel-types were added and changes were made to 4 others....
