This sweet little video shows mini planets that are based off video games. I was able to figure out most of them. How many do you know? Today we have a fantastic episode of Podtoid where Jonathan Holmes does most of the talking, a review ofFez,the DTOID Show,Crysis 3could be a thing, Peter Molyneux admits personal failure, PC gamers are mad about Dark Souls using GFWL, and all kinds of other treasures....
Yoshida wants coreFFfans to playFinal Fantasy XIVsolo Coming from someone who played through the majority of the main story quest (MSQ) solo, theFinal Fantasy XIVsolo experience is pretty great compared to most MMOs. But it could always get better, which is something Naoki “Yoshi P” Yoshida and his team are working on for the future. As part of laying out their plans for the “next 10 years of the game,”a portion of that blueprint involved making it more solo-friendly....
So you’re saying there’s a chance The Nintendo Switch is an absolute beast. Although crushing the Wii U isn’t exactly the most difficult challenge in the world over time, it did it in less than a year’s time since its launch. Now in 18 months of life it’s beaten out the Wii U’s total software sales. Going by data from the Japan-centric analytics Twitter account Game Data Library, the Switch is estimated to have surpassed the Wii U at this point in time....
Release dates for Devastation on PS3, PS4, and PC I’ll hand it to Infinity Ward for spicing things up by included the Predator inCall of Duty: Ghostswith itsDevastationDLC pack. More moves like that and the studio might just win over some of the fans who have moved on to prefer Treyarch’s work on the series. Now, you’ve already heard Chris’take onDevastation— it’s a good pick-up for existing fans — but when will it be out for non-Xbox gamers?...
PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch In case you haven’t heard yet,Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, a soft reboot of the franchise (but still taking place in the same universe as the 1995 original and 2005’sZathura), was released at the tail-end of 2017 and saw a massive amount of success at the box office. As in, nearly a billion dollars before a home release. A lot of the success can be pinned on the draw of Hollywood popcorn A-lister The Rock, but truth be told this fun little flick had a stellar supporting cast, including a refreshing performance by Jack Black after a string of middling children’s films....
Yesterday I posted a list of theten most awesome videogame wizards of all time. But, like anything in life, for everyawesome wizardthat stands by you, ice staff in hand, as you battle a chimera, there is anasshole wizardthat does nothing but throw fireballs at you as you try to climb a cliff to rescue a damsel in distress. Ugh. To be honest, I don’t like to use the word “asshole” a lot — it is rather harsh (although it is really fun to say)....
A wild demo build of Pokemon Gold/Silver has appeared Decades after its debut at Space World 1997, a playable demo version ofPokémon GoldandSilverhas surfaced online, and it’s a veritable treasure trove of unfinished or otherwise unused content. The most intriguing finds have got to be all the work-in-progress Pokémon. Some are familiar but slightly different from their final iterations, some are unused baby forms (like for Meowth and Doduo), and some are just good as heck but never made the cut for whatever reason....
And that’s the worst of the guitar controllers Fancy yourself quite theDark Soulsplayer? Bet you’re able to cruise right through that game, patiently parrying and rolling your way to victory after victory. Good for you. Now, do it with aRock Bandcontroller. It may seem unnecessarily frustrating, but someone on Twitch did just that. Streamer Bearzly re-mapped aRock Bandguitar to be mostly functional, and is making aseries of videosof him besting different parts of the game....
Naval battles and shooters unite Back in the days, we were treated to aPower Rangersspin-off calledMasked Rider. My memories of the show are its hero using a beam sword to slay his opponents, along with the creepy Furby-like mascot. While it wasn’t an amazing series, I heard good things about the source material,Kamen Rider Black RX. Also, the annoying furball wasn’t in the original program. In Japan, the series is part of an ongoing franchise, with the latest show,Kamen Rider Ex-Aid,revolving around video games and the medical field....
I didn’t even skip ahead It may not be a flawless run, but YouTube userNotEntirelySure‘s playthrough ofSuper Mario Bros.is a riot all the same. He cleared the game with the lowest possible score, 500 points, without the aid of save states or slowdown. That near-impossible jump under the row of coins. Those relentless Hammer Bros. This run is more difficult than the video might indicate, and it looks pretty damn challenging to begin with....
Bloomburrow has to be one of the most hyped sets Magic has had in a while, and players can see why. The art style is on point, the mechanics are fun and inventive, and it really feels like a plane of old with its own unique flair. With all that out there, it should be easy to understand that I, personally, have beenobsessingover this set. Foaming at the mouth, crazed for it, buying card after card....

Exclusive Brutal Legend and World of Warcraft volumes will be available as well As it does every year, comic and videogame art book publisher UDON Entertainment will be attending San Diego Comic-Con with a bunch of event-exclusive goodies in tow. Technically, all these books will be available elsewhere in standard editions, but if you want the privilege of spending out the nose for fancy covers, you’ll have to brave the sweaty SDCC crowds....
