Elite: Dangerous is a beautiful space sim from Frontier Developments that was original only on PC. A much slower game than some may be used to, Elite: Dangerous is a very immerseive experience that makes players really feel like they’re a space freighter/dog fighter/etc. Fans of space sims particularly took to Elite: Dangerous due to its immersion and it’s visuals. To couple the announcement of console release, developer David Braben went to the PlayStation blog to share his thoughts on video ga

For a long time, since Steam’s olden days of the early 00’s, they’ve had the Steam user forums. They worked like a standard forum website for discussion and troubleshooting for any games on Valve’s internet marketplace. Today, they’ve officially pulled the plug on the forums and now its web address redirects to Steam discussions. Stean discussions may actually be more familiar to typical users of Steam, as they’re easily accessed, located right in a specific game’s page on Steam. It’s likely a n

This morning, seemingly out of nowhere, Nintendo announced a new Nintendo Direct specifically for their new arena fighter ARMS. In typical Nintendo fashion, the announcement came out of left field and has already caused a flurry of discussion as the event is planned tomorrow May 17 at 3pm PT/6pm ET. The previous Nintendo Direct focused on Splatoon 2 while also teasing a small bit about ARMS, including the reveal of another playable fighter. This time, it seems the Nintendo Direct will focus on A

Two surveys from Microsoft, which leaked online, have done their best to break down just who Xbox gamers are, in hopes of helping developers understand what they are working with. The documents, obtained by Windows Central, reveal what they have found Xbox owners to be, based on a survey. The information was meant to be shared privately with Xbox partners and was intended to help developers understand the types of Xbox customers. A majority of Xbox One owners are 25 to 34-year-olds (28%), but th

343 Industries has once again denied the existence of Halo 3 Anniversary and it’s not any easier to accept this time around. 343 Industries’ community manager Brian Jarrard hasn’t been shy when it comes to shooting down whether or not Halo 3 Anniversary exists. Once again, Jarrard is crushing the hopes and dreams of everyone who wants Halo 3 Anniversary. There is no Halo 3 Anniversary,” wrote Jarrard on Reddit in reply to a fan who teased possible Halo 3 Anniversary hype. Now, that could mean so

Back in 2015, Nintendo revealed their initiative to develop smartphone games, saying that they planned to release five smartphone games by March 2017. We haven’t seen five games yet, but we have seen Super Mario Run and Fire Emblem Heroes release. According to sources close to Nintendo who relayed information to The Wall Street Journal, Nintendo is planning to make a ‘The Legend of Zelda’ game for smartphones. Last year, Nintendo detailed that they would be releasing a mobile Animal Crossing gam

We have already been let in on ‘everything we need to know’ about what Injustice 2 is offering, but now it’s time for some launch hype! Injustice 2 is set to release tomorrow on PS4 and Xbox One, so NetherRealm released a launch trailer with plenty of gameplay in it. If that’s not enough for you, the game also released on iOS and Android last week. You can check out Injustice 2’s first DLC pack, as well as Brainiac, Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, Captain Cold, Cheetah, Black Adam, Green Arrow, and Green

Last week, the company behind the Thief movie suggested that another Thief game was in production on their blog. Unfortunately, this rumor has been squashed by the studio head at Eidos Montreal himself. Eidos Montreal studio head David Anfossi squashed the rumor in one tweet. In 2014 we saw the fourth game in the Thief series release, only to be met with lukewarm reviews. With Thief 4’s lackluster reviews and relatively low sales, it’s no surprise that the game isn’t getting a sequel.​

A developer that has worked on both a Call of Duty remaster and platform port has released an image that inadvertently teased the concept of Call of Duty: WWII releasing on the Nintendo Switch. Beenox, the company behind the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 and Modern Warfare Remastered, shared a photograph of a few staff members mingling with representatives of the Canadian Army. Reading too much into the image, it’s unclear whether Beenox will be in charge of th

Ghost Recon Wildlands’ expansion, ‘Fallen Ghosts’, will feature a campaign that holds 15 new missions, with four new bosses located in three different regions. Fallen Ghosts will bring four new enemies to the game:Armored: Equipped with heavy bulletproof plates, they are especially threatening in close combat. Elite Sniper: Geared up with an advanced movement detector, these Elite Sniper are able to notice far away targets and never miss their shot. Geared up with an advanced movement detector,

Last week, we learned that the Xbox One Scorpio devkit has a screen on the front panel that displays the FPS of the game that is currently running. Some people mocked it because it seems kinda useless for a machine to just constantly have a screen that says “60 FPS” on it. Windows Central’s Jez Corden tweeted out a video showing a clip of just what else the display screen can show off. So if developers just want to see virtual dolphins casually swimming around on their Xbox, they can turn on tha

Sega used their aptly named “Road to 2020” business presentation to reveal their plans for the next few years. One of these plans involves creating “titles that will become global hits.” To get to their goal of having “global hits” Sega will be reviving “major IPs” – as well as expand the platforms (mobile, game consoles, and PC) of existing IPs, new IPs, and external IPs. Under the “Segment Goal / Business Strategies” section of the presentation, Sega outlined the following major points in the

There have been plenty of leaks for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed game, which is said to be named Assassin’s Creed Origins, but it looks like the leak is about to become a flood. The 4chan leak references two leaked images for Assassin’s Creed Origins, which you can find here: Main character in front of something and the latest leaked image. While the leak mostly focuses on Assassin’s Creed Origins, it also addresses why the franchise hasn’t explored Japan. Ubisoft, allegedly, sees no profit in

Super Mario Star World is an upcoming fan-made hack of Super Mario 64 from the Nintendo DS that is a port of the N64 hack, Super Mario Star Road. The hack is being developed as a solo project by Skelux, who released a new trailer for the game showing off a new level. Here’s the trailer:Skelux says that Super Mario Star World is about 80% complete and has been able to work on it at a “decent speed” in large part due to the help they have received on Patreon. It’s also worth noting that because St

For trainers who have gotten to the end of Pokemon Sun and/or Moon, you’ve probably noticed that acquiring Mega Stones is not nearly as direct as it was. Nintendo is getting around this by offering a download code to all trainers so that they can grab the missing Mega Stones. To redeem the code, make your way over to the Mystery Gift panel from the Main Menu. From there, hit Receive Gift, then Get with Code/Password, then Yes, and then Yes again to connect to the Internet. Enter the Code and the
