As always, I want to go try it immediately EveryZelda: Breath of the Wildplayer remembers the Ancient Furnace bits. You’re tasked with delivering a blue flame from a specific point to two tech labs at various points in the story, and the game recommends that you use a torch. Of course there are ways around this, including this really funBreath of the Wildtrick shotfrom freetable. Described as a “big brain moment,” they simply line up an arrow with the blue flame, then let it rip all the way to the tech lab....

The episodes weresupposed to be released in six-week increments, but due to unforeseen circumstances the second episode missed its mark, and was delayed,despite the developer claiming the contrary.

Marvel Rivals‘ new update gave Captain America and Luna Snow some fantastic new costumes, but it also snuck in some bug fixes that ironed out a few hero-specific glitches. Among these was a fix to a pair of crippling issues plaguing everyone’s goopy alien antihero, Venom. Marvel Rivals’ new patch fixes crippling glitches affecting Venom Since launch, Venom has sat comfortablyat or near the top ofMarvel Rivals‘ meta, and as a Venom main, I agree with the consensus on this one....

Set Phasers to “Stunning Discounts” Remember when GOG was called “Good Old Games”? When the fine folks at CD Projekt were more concerned about getting classic games like, er..NOXto contemporary players at low prices, rather thanselling brand new gamesandlaunching alternatives to Steam? I remember (as does Pepperidge Farm), and from the looks of their latest release, GOG remembers, too. Thanks to a deal with CBS, they’ve just released three classicStar Trektitles to the service, namely the point-and-click adventure gamesStar Trek 25th AnniversaryandStar Trek: Judgment Rites, as well as the space simStar Trek: Starfleet Academy....

The embedded video quickly overviews what this Xbox 360-exclusive multiplayer beta will include: namely, the Hotspot mode with the Sarajevo Stadium map in Bosnia....

PH = 7 Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdomis a “spiritual successor” to theWonder Boyfranchise. It’s a cute platformer where you can switch between animal transformations as the situation demands. You can butt-stomp enemies. It’s set for release this year, and will be coming to consoles and PC. These are objective facts, as they relate to the video gameMonster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom, which I saw at PAX South....

It’s been almost seven months sinceMother 3hit Japan, and there has been virtually no mentioning of it by Nintendo of America — not even a “we’ll never release that, stupid!” from Reggie “The Fetid Earthsplitter” Fils-Aime. Though there aresomewho will never forget nor forgive such a transgression, no amount of petitioning or e-rioting is likely to bring aboutMother 3’sEnglish localization. The window for GBA releases is closing quickly;Final Fantasy VI Advanceis probably destined to be the last high-profile GBA title released stateside....

While this might’ve been a laughable prospect years ago, in the middle ofSkyrim‘s heyday,Bethesda’s paid Creations mods are now the go-to optionfor many players. At least, this is the case withStarfield, and the resident third-party modding website Nexus Mods is responding accordingly at last. More specifically,Nexus Mods’ latest policy updateincludes a proper clarification of how the company feels about paid mods approved by publishers/developers. It sounds fairly innocuous and sensible in general, to be fair, but there are a few tidbits that could bring about problems later down the line....
