Tim Cain, the project lead on the originalFallout, just dropped his review of Amazon’s new show, but you don’t need to watch all of it. In hisreview, Cain emphasized how the show nails the feeling of theFalloutuniverse. He said that the show managed to get everything from the visual aesthetics to the dialogue and storyline to fit right into a universe that’s often hard to capture because it’s so different from other versions of post-apocalyptic worlds....

Take to the titan sky In a surprise announcement at Paris Games Week,Ourewas revealed and given an immediate release for PlayStation 4. Not much is known about it other than what we can see from the brief trailer but from what we’ve been told you are a child that lives in a world of Titans. These titans for some reason or other have been knocked off of their routine. It is your duty to get these Titans back on track!...

We got Death Star! It’s not even been three months sinceReady Player Onewhelmed at the boxed office and already someone has come along and shown how that should have been done. Love it or hate it, the crux ofRPO, outside of nostalgia, was the source material’s literary ability to weave in every character, story or pop culture reference you could imagine. It’s harder to do that in movies since the visual medium has stricter copyright infringement rules so you had some gaps thanks to a variety of legal issues....

Free up a hand to masturbate while you MOBA If you’re like me, you’ve probably thought about how easy it would be to play a MOBA with one of those fancy MMO mice with tons of buttons, freeing up a hand to do all kinds of fun activities. Well now you can with the SteelSeries Rival 500. It was designed with that very task in mind, having 15 buttons on-board. Whether or not you enjoy it will come down to preference and if you can accept the drastic change....

They done switched wallets We already knew how aggressive Sony has been with their heist ofCall of Dutyfrom Microsoft’s clutches, with the new DLC timed exclusivity deal and anenhanced presence in the eSports arena, but Sony is going the extra mile for this franchise in Japan. In fact, Sony Computer Entertainment Japan Asia will publish the game in that region on PS3 and PS4, taking over Activision’s usual duties — similar to what they did withDestiny....

Nothing personnel, squid… We’ve come to the end of another splatfest, held this weekend on Nintendo’s arena-shooterSplatoon 2. This time around, the North American and European communities battled it out in a bid to decide which was the cooler of two science-fiction tropes:Time Travel or Teleportation. The results are now in, and it looks like a clean sweep for Teleportation. The same skill that turned a baboon inside-out inThe Flytook a hefty 58% of the Public Vote, before winning both gameplay points to give Marina a clear-cut victory over Pearl’s Team Time-Travel....

Free updates planned for November and December despite initial messaging that Squadrons wouldn’t get more content EA wasn’t planning to release anything extra forStar Wars: Squadrons– the creative director, Ian Frazier,said as muchin an October interview – but that’s no longer the case.In a good way, I mean. The support from fans has been “humbling” and “so much more than we could have hoped for.” As such, the developers are releasing a pair of updates – one in November, another in December – for free....

The real friends were the power-ups you picked up along the way Shin Megami Tensei Vis pretty good, and a lot of people are going to be picking it up in a week-ish (and there’s a lot of Switches out there to create that prospective audience). Having combed through the game extensively, I have a sole “bestShin Megami Tensei V tip” to share: take your time. So with a lot of JRPGs, taking your time can be a zero-sum game....

A bunch of big names that are entirely too predictable Blockbuster. Cinematic. Mainstream. These are things I am no longer enthralled by. As we prepare our minds and our bank accounts for the looming next-generation consoles, I cannot help but feel jaded. This promotional video for Xbox One’s lineup, some of which will be available at launch, some of which won’t, just isn’t doing it for me. And that kills me....

#HotStrats The battle begins long before those doors open. You have teammates. Greet them. Be polite. You’re interacting with other humans, show them some courtesy. I think one of the guys on my team was Australian, so I played as Junkrat as a sign of cultural awareness and acceptance. Once you’re done saying hello, then you may start fighting. I never got that far in this video.

With some big changes inNBA 2K25‘s MyGM mode, you can spend several tens of hours creating new pieces of history. This year, the official rosters look pretty interesting, as every team has some challenges. Even a complete team like the Boston Celtics might become overburdened with pressure as you’re expected to go for another ring. Many other sides, like the Brooklyn Nets, are looking toward the end of the barrel due to their squad status....

Look at some metal and plastic In a moment of madness, and due to having more money than sense, I ended up purchasing theDead Space 3 Dev Team Edition. I didn’t mean to do it, it just … kind of happened. Unable to change the past, the package arrived today, straight from the mysterious land of Ontario, and I unboxed it in a video. I don’t know why I did that....
