At the end of October, after PC fans had been enjoying the game for several years,Phasmophobiafinally came to console. Now, you could get your ghost-hunting fright on via Xbox Series X|S or PS5, but there was one vital piece of the puzzle missing: voice recognition. Part of the game’s immersive appeal is being able to elicit a ghost response by talking to it over a microphone directly or through theSpirit Boxitem....
A few months ago, we featuredUncharted Blood Lines, a fan movie by filmmaker Brett Driver. Brett has uploaded a number of game-themed videos to hisYouTube pagein the past, and now he’s working onVideogame Deathmatch, a new series that pits game characters from different series against one another. Fans of ScrewAttack’sDeath Battlemay notice thatVGDMshares the same premise. However,Death Battlefights are animated, whereasVGDMfights are live-action. I think there’s enough room on the Web for both to coexist peacefully, right?...
Gone, but never forgotten… Even since the sad passing of former Nintendo president Satoru Iwata in 2015, his legacy has beenreferencedthrough anumberof in-game and industrytributes. Another touching nod has recently been uncovered in Nintendo 3DS gamePokemon Ultra Sun & Moon. Should a player visit the title’s Game Freak building, whilst having aGold or SilverPokemon in their party, then they will be regaled with a story about the struggle of cramming so much data into the 1999 Game Boy Color games, until the developers were helped out by an “amazing guy”....

Reaching for the stars In high-level competition, every little advantage counts. It is why Olympic swimmers shave their bodies before a race, why pre-med students fight tooth-and-nail for every half point on every test, and why gaming keyboards exist. I am not a professional eSports athlete. I play competitive games, but I would not win any serious competitions. That said, I think this keyboard is pretty great, and in addition to the benefits to top-level players, it has some cool features for people like me too....
You’re probably looking at the title and thinking this is fake, and honestly, it really sounds like that. But believe us when we say: this is real, this works, and best of all, it’s something that’s always been in the game. All you really need is a bit of in-game currency and some light organization. If you do everything right, YES, you really can gain 500 Levels in 1 Day inFisch....

Back when I felt it was time to upgrade from the DS Lite, I ordered a special DSi bundle from Walmart that came with a choice of two games. One of those games was the insufferably namedKingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, which I only picked up because everything else looked like sh*t. It was a somewhat decent time-killer, even though it often made me want to claw the skin off my face, but what stuck out most was the recurring symbolism of eating ice cream with friends....

Quick recap just in case you don’t already know (but I trust most of you Dtoid regulars know quite well),Seedsis a game company made up of several major members of the now-defunct Clover Studios. It seems Seeds has decided to go with an official name change, which disappoints me as I really liked the uniqueness of the name. The new name is Platinum Studios, which was changed after a merge with the mysteriousODD Corporation....

The multiplayer portion forGhost Warrior 3has been delayed until Q3 2017....
