  • Star Wars Battlefront 2 is one of those titles and the upcoming game bought up some very large (and likely expensive) real estate to remind everyone in downtown LA about this fall’s Star Wars shooter sequel. The three massive new Star Wars Battlefront 2 posters are now in place at the Figueroa Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. The actress behind Versio took to twitter to celebrate the completion of the new posters and to promote the upcoming EA Play event for Battlefront 2 and EA’s other titles. St

  • The Xbox classic Halo: Combat Evolved is looked back on fondly by many, and the franchise still remains as one of the biggest heavy hitters for Microsoft’s console. In fact, the original Halo almost shipped without one of its most defining factors — multiplayer. The feature on the history of Halo is definitely worth a read for fans of the original game, and tells even more about stories about Bungie’s hit sci-fi shooter. Halo: Combat Evolved was created by Bungie, who worked on the franchise thr

  • Activision has made much of the fact that Call of Duty: WW2 is designed to take the venerable FPS franchise back to its roots. Last week, a fans asked Sledgehammer Games co-founder Michael Condrey whether Call of Duty: WW2 would feature the unlimited sprint mechanic. Of course, it makes complete sense that Sledgehammer Games would choose to remove this mechanic from a game based around World War II. Much like Battlefield 1 before it, Sledgehammer Games is hoping to achieve a degree of historical

  • Pokemon GO has reportedly begun to add new PokeStops and Gyms. It seems that many of these new locations have been ‘ported’ over to Pokemon GO already. We’re not accepting PokéStop suggestions now, but are working on a way to enable submissions in the future. Likewise for people near PokeStops and Gyms that would require them to trespass in order to access them. Spoofers have taken over the Gyms in many locations, say fans, and Niantic needs to do a better job of combatting this.

  • Finally, eight months after releasing alongside Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, it seems gamers will finally get a chance to purchase Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered as a standalone title. The news comes by way of Amazon Japan, which shared a listing for Modern Warfare Remastered as a standalone title set to release June 20th. It’s not surprising to see Activision finally bend on its claim that Modern Warfare Remastered wouldn’t be available by itself. At the moment, Modern Warfare Remas

It’s important to note that there is little to no evidence supporting these being legitimate, but Super Smash Bros. fans can take them as rather well done fan pieces based on the premise of a Smash Switch port.
