We are just hours from the release of the Overwatch Summer Event and the reveal of the skins, which is what everyone really wants to see. The image above popped up on Reddit, where many fans have noted that Mercy appears to be in Greek Goddess attire, thus leading some to believe she may be dressed as Nike, the Goddess of Victory. While I doubt Blizzard will confirm that she is Nike, possible due to legal reasons, it would be absolutely fitting for the event. We can also confirm, according to Je

Hellblade is a narrative driven experience, there are sections of combat but they aren’t particularly hard. Well, early on in the game Hellblade tells the player that a dark rot will take over your body and kill you if you fail too many times. You’re constantly scared that you’re going to die and all of your progress will be lost despite it not being incredibly difficult, if you’re used to rhythmic Batman: Arkham-like combat, you’re golden. The game tells you this for the reasons mentioned above

It looks like someone decided that the only right way to play Call of Duty was with a loaded AR-15 in his lap and it didn’t really go according to plan… Well, whatever his plan was. According to the Murfreesboro (Tennessee) Police Department, 21-year-old Jacob Aaron Curtis was playing Call of Duty (it wasn’t specified which Call of Duty he was playing) with a loaded AR-15 in his lap that “somehow” discharged, firing a shot through his wall in his neighbor’s apartment. His neighbor, an elderly

Sonic Mania, the embodiment of 25 years of Sonic, is looking better and better with every piece of news. Then we got a number of stage reveal videos accompanied by some sweet tracks that only 90s Sonic could truly pull off. Back in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, we were graced with competition mode. While the main game was more of a cooperative effort, Competition Mode pitted players against each other, and Sonic Mania is bringing it back. Sonic Mania has shown over and over that it’s a love song to the

Three video games came to mind when playing Hellblade, and those were Dark Souls, Uncharted and The Witness. It isn’t nearly as hard as Dark Souls, which lends some leniency towards the permadeath feature. I was yelling at the TV in unison with the voices in Senua’s head: “Come on! The game prompts you to play the game with headphones as the voices in Senua’s head and environmental sounds are directional. When we talk about video games as art, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice will now serve as a pri

The first phase of the Final Fantasy XV multiplayer Beta ends tomorrow when it goes on a three-day hiatus before picking back up on the 11th. That said, with all that Final Fantasy XV has struggled through over the last ten years, this just feels like such a small thing to add to its laundry list of things not quite normal. In order to access the second Beta, you will still have the same set of requirements from the first. You must own the Final Fantasy XV base game, its Season Pass, and have a

Milton Guasti, the developer of the short-lived Metroid 2 fan remake, Project AM2R has apparently found a happy ending despite his passion project’s cease and desist from Nintendo.

Middle-Earth: Shadow of War is building upon the online components of its predecessor through a mode they are calling Social Conquest. For more casual players, Friendly Conquest simply allows players to jump into an instance of assault, and if they come up short, no harm done. However, if you are the type that likes competing on the Leaderboards, then Ranked Mode is for you. In Ranked Mode, attackers can earn a higher payout via their Assualt Rating each time they successfully take down a fortre
