You rock, rock As I’ve mentioned in the past, one of my favorite things aboutZelda: Breath of the Wildis how much it can make me laugh just as often as it makes me gasp in awe. We’ve seen so many incredible videos, both intentional and unintentional, and this one is a nice cap to 2019 in the latter category. Reddit user CowardlyPat totally meant for this to happen, as he uses the good old “stasis smack” physics trick to move a pesky slab of rock out of the way to reach a cave with a Shrine in it....

I have Zero Time, though When Aksys games had announced theNonary Gamescompilationfor PS4, PC and Vita, I wondered why they left out the final game in the trilogy,Zero Time Dilemma. While it made sense on Vita and PC (seeing as how the third game was already available), PS4 didn’t have a port of the series closer. If that was your platform of choice, you had no way to finish the story....

Built for Google Daydream Standalone VR headsets that don’t require a PC, a phone, or a whole mess of wires are going to make virtual reality so much more approachable. Pricing is one thing, but there really is something to be said about ease of use and setup. Google is about to get into this “built-in” territory with Vive and Lenovo, both of which are working on VR devices for the company’sDaydream platform....

No doubt North America will receive the re-release within a similar time frame....

Stardew Valleyis available on a lot of different platforms, probably all of the ones you could imagine, including Android. While modded games might feel like something that’s reserved for PC players, there are actually a lot of mods that work on Android. It’s worth remembering that while there are mods that will work on the Android version ofStardew Valley, they can be a little unstable, as they’re often designed specifically for the PC version....

We at Destructoid cannot get enough ofBrütal Legend. Everything about this game is going to be so awesome! A new video for the gamewas released and it shows off the first 17 minutes of the game. All of this was coveredin our preview already, but this video also has Tim Schafer walking us through the entire thing, which makes it 100 times better. There’s just something about Tim Schafer that’s so … magical....

BitLifecan be a phenomenal way to pass the time. you’re able to live a life that you could realistically only dream about, follow any dreams that reality prevents you from chasing, or simply just… Live. Regardless of how high your hopes are for your virtual life, some things never change. Included in this is the fact that, once you reach the ripe old age of between 15 and 18 (depending on the location you chose), you’ll have the opportunity to take your driving test....

The French army will finally be playable They Shall Not Pass, the first expansion pack forBattlefield 1, will drop in March 2017. This is the one with the playable French army (an unfortunate omission from the base game), as well as more maps and weapons, as you’d expect. DICE isn’t showing the maps as they’ll appear in-game yet, but the studio does have some “concept exploration” images that can clue us in to what’s ahead....

Coming to the New 3DS in Japan Very recently I talked aboutwhen Konami used to be a good, powerhouse of a developer that pumped out hit after hit. Now they make Pachinko machines with those licenses, but many moons ago, they releasedThe Legend of the Mystical Ninja, the first localizedGoemongame, in the west. At that point I was pretty used to complex games (beating the first fewMega Mangames was a challenge — I remember calling the official counselor’s tip line about the Mecha Dragon in2!...

Tre-five-or Noah [Update:EA has confirmedto KotakuthatBattlefield Vwill not feature any loot boxes.] EA held a reveal event forBattlefield Vtoday and confirmed a whole lot of details. For one, the game will be returning to World War 2 and giving us the classic Axis vs Allies story we’ve seen a hundred times before. In addition to that,Battlefield Vwill have a campaign mode and co-op support, though I’m not entirely certain if co-op is a separate mode....

The best classic adventures you can have without going outside (and one honorary modern inclusion) Many claim that point & click adventures died on the last day of the previous century, but is that really true? Adventure games show signs of life with many fresh new releases every year, so perhaps it’s time to celebrate the genre’s glorious origins as well as the best current carriers of the torch. Honorable Mention: Return of the Obra Dinn (2018) WhileReturn of the Obra Dinnisn’t a classic point & click adventure from the olden days, it’s a game about pointing at and clicking stuff that became an instant classic....

Like you can name one that’s better E3 is here, it’s queer and we should all get used to the next few days of video game journalists shooting a load at every trailer and demo that publishers throw their way. It’s the point of origin for the many hype trains that will soon be leaving the station on a one-way trip to Success City, Failsville or Forgettable Falls. There is so much to anticipate out of these next three days and one of the games I am most looking forward to isSuper Mario Odyssey....

Having the best loadout possible is incredibly important inModern Warfare 3, and with the new JAK Atlas Conversion Kit, the AMR9 can be a true contender in theMW3meta. That’s why we’ve compiled the best loadout guide, including attachments, perks, equipment, and more. The AMR9 has never dominated the SMG meta inMW3, with the RAM-9 and Striker both higher in the pecking order. While it only boasts a 0.7% pick rate right now, theJAK Atlas Conversion Kitrelease may change that....
