Switch, PS4 and PC are the announced platforms for now, but the release date is still up in the air....

Make a Dtoid car! Car personalization is coming back for Need for Speed Rivals! I didn’t even know this feature was removed at some point! As you can see, you can design your cars to look however you want. As for the cop cars though, you will unlock different versions of each car as making a hot pink cop car with heart shapes on it would be weird. Well, weird to Electronic Arts....

I mean…just… Nintendo of Europe just tweeted out the existence of a “Mega” Yarn Yoshi amiibo, which is set to launch in the region on November 27. Damnit. As a general rule,I’m done with hunting down amiibo. If one happens to cross my path or the ability to import on the cheap is there, I’m in. Heck, I recently imported Dr. Mario for $18 after learning that it was likely a Target exclusive — I’m not waiting in line in the morning anymore....

Also, multiplayer is 2v1 As we know,Doom Eternalis digital-only on Switch, andit’ll take up around 18GB of space at launch. But Bethesda has updated its Switch FAQ with a few more juicy tidbits.

Even more interestingly, across the continent it has been revealed that some 81% of parents actually game with their children, while the average age of gamers in the United Kingdom is 33....

Nomura is a master trickster Now thatFinal Fantasy VII Remakeis finally out, the team is starting to open up about what the future might bring, and the path that led to its eventual, delayed release. The key source of information these past few days has come from one giant tome: the new Ultimania book, which has been thankfully translatedby Twitter user aitaikimochi. Wealready learned about how future episodes could pan out, but now we have the goods on another bit of the tome that tells us what went into the thought process of adding “Remake” to the nomenclature of the project....

Fiscal responsibility! It’s no secret that game publishers hate using all that expensive paper and ink to makevideogame manuals. Manuals lost their color, reduced the page count, and eventually started disappearing altogether, leaving only the health & safety info as an insert. Now, eventhoseinserts are being cut down. Microsoft sent along bothFable: The JourneyandForza Horizonrecently, and I noticed that the traditional safety info — mandatory in games since creation began — is no longer provided as a separate sheet, but printed on the flip side of the game covers....
