One-time use Bungie is holding its ground yet again after another player outcry. This time it’s shaders, which have gone from the lovely, unlimited use customization items they once were, into the consumable, loot crate driven items they are now inDestiny 2. The game’s director, Luke Smith, attempted to address the issue over Twitter this week, downplaying the nature of the new shader mechanic and attempting to explain that it’s actually good for the game....

Lo-fi realms to quest through Some games have style that imitates life, some adopt animation techniques and cartoon aesthetics, and then some have a look that just knocks you down flat.Dread Delusionlooks like the latter. Dread Delusionis an upcoming open-world RPG developed by Lovely Hellplace and published by Dread XP, the label behind theDread X Collectionlo-fi horror anthologies. The game itself looks like an expanded version of the one found on the “Haunted PS1 Demo Disc,” and yeah, it looks like something a haunted PlayStation would create....
Somethings are still taboo for mainstream videogames, such asrapehairy male testicles. In the upcomingTomb Raiderreboot, scavengers will kidnap Lara Croft’s best friend, chase after Lara, and “try to rape her,” according to Executive Producer Ron Rosenberg. “She is literally turned into a cornered animal,” Rosenberg said. “It’s a huge step in her evolution: she’s forced to either fight back or die.” I think there is something brave in attempting this in the game’s narrative, but Rosenberg stating this in an interview is, well, short-sighted....

Plus, they talk about how Omega came to be MMOs are a tough business. Not only do you have to keep casual players entertained, you also have to feed the needs of a famished veteran player base who are constantly looking for new challenges. Square Enix’sFinal Fantasy XIVteam manages to do a killer job with its savage (read: the hardest difficulty setting) raid content and the PlayStation Blog recently featured a snippet of how the sausage is made....
Try the demo on Wii U today When I first saw some screens forExtreme Exorcism, I had to jump on it. I’m a sucker for that simplistic style, and ever since I playedBubble BobbleandSnow Bros, I’ve been addicted to arena-style platforming games. Seriously,Snow Brosdoesn’t get enough respect. The premise is a lot likeSuper Crate Box, actually. Levels will randomly adorn you with weaponry, which can range from items like guns, swords, and dash boots....
I really didn’t like the originalF.E.A.R.when I played it. There’s something about repetitive enemies, gunfights that feel too much like work and an ending that confuses me more than J-pop singer Gackt (so confusing … yet so beautiful). Nevertheless,F.E.A.R. 2: Project Originhas me interested, mainly because these videos make it look like a real step forward. Above, we have a discussion onProject Origin‘s story, and beyond the jump we have two more vids for you, looking at the A....
With the release of Patch 6.18 back in July 2022,Final Fantasy XIVintroduced the Data Center travel feature, allowing players to hop between Worlds and Data Centers within their region. Now, the FFXIV team is aiming to expand this to cross region travel, and you’ll be able to test it out soon. Since Data Center travel was introduced, Square Enix has been open about the concerns and limitations of its infrastructure. Just traveling between Data Centers proved difficult enough, as Yoshi-P has long offered transparency into the process and its challenges....
Get your level-ups in Xbox Game Pass is a great service, but every game is not going to be on it forever. Here is the Xbox Game Pass “leaving soon” listing, which just popped up in my Xbox app feed this morning:Sea Salt,Gris,Fishing Sim World Pro Tour,Final Fantasy XV(Windows Edition), andIndivisible. On Xbox consoles, the list is nearly the same, but with the “Royal Edition” ofFFXVsubbed out for the “Windows Edition....
