More issues arise Recently we talked about some issues with Sony’s 2.0 PS4 firmware update, and certain users were experiencing lock-up problems. Now there’s a new issue that has been rather widespread: The system won’t boot from standby mode. Currently, a number of PS4 owners recommend not putting your console into standby mode, and instead turning it off completely. Sony has also recommended going to your settings menu in the power save section and turning “Supply Power to USB Ports while in standby” to “off....

Uncharted 2delivers what its devs called an “active cinematic experience.” “Active” represents player interaction, “cinematic” represents the “movie quality” they want their games to have, and “experience” represents the sum of all the game’s parts. At Naughty Dog, they’re all about creating an awesome story. They shape their games around it, with their goal being to get the player emotionally invested. The purpose of their GDC talk was to give other developers a look at how such a game is created....

Both iOS and Android Gwent: The Witcher Card Gameis chugging along nicely with new expansions (including Crimson Curse, the first major card expansion that’s adding 100 cards into the mix) and campaign content. It just came out officially after all in October of 2018 following a lengthy open beta process, so it stands to reason that CD Projekt Red is going to keep supporting it for a bit amid a relatively tumultuous and competitive digital card game space....

Zack Furniss on PS4! Colorful, sporty platformerHackyZackis heading to PS4 next month. Releasing on February 12 in the US and 13 in Europe, the game is a straight port of thePC and Switchgame with no new additions. It will still feature over 100 levels and have all manner of unlockable content. If you’re interested in how the game is, I didreview itback in 2017.

After a little waiting, we finally have a release date for the Nintendo console. Quidditch Championsreleases on Nintendo Switch on Jun 14, 2025.

I think it has its place in certain circumstances After posting myreview ofFinal Fantasy XIV‘s endgame content, a discussion erupted across the review itself and my social channels. Some of them really dugA Realm Reborn‘s old school use of the “Holy Trinity” mechanic, and some hated it, citingGuild Wars 2as the wave of the future. For those who don’t play MMOs, the Trinity is basically a system that forces players to adhere to certain class standards....

Whether you’re jumping back in now thatnew content’s been added toBaldur’s Gate 3, or if you’re a total newcomer starting from scratch, there’s no overstating the value of its multiplayer mode. How does it all work, though? Though it’s easy, we can help regardless! Unlike many other modern RPGs,Baldur’s Gate 3is built from the ground up to support co-op multiplayer gameplay every step of the way. This is, of course, partially becauseBaldur’s Gate 3is a classic party-based RPG, which means players will almost always travel in a group....

Like HoYoverse’s other hit gacha games,Zenless Zone Zerohas several tasks that players need to get into the habit of doing every time they play. One of these is getting combat buffs before battle. This is revealed fairly early in the game, but with all the shops to visit, it’s easy to forget how and where to grab combat buffs. The Waterfall Soup noodle shop on Sixth Street Thecity of New Eridu serves as the hub world ofZenless Zone Zero,and the Waterfall Soup noodle shop is located to the left of the video store where Belle and Wise work....

Lots to look at while we wait Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Editionis due “sometime in the second quarter of 2018” in the west (and a firm March 22 in Japan), which is incredibly nebulous for a port everyone would probably just hunker down and play right now. While we wait the official site just opened up, and a heap of new screens are available, showcasing the visual upgrades and some of the 3DS DLC that’s headed into the HD realm....

Rate My Xylophone? I was tempted to make the title “Fast RMXis the next best thing,” but it would actually be the next next best thing, after aWipeoutgame (shout-out to Team Harimau!). Successor to highly ratedFast Racing Neo, Fast RMXby German developer Shin’en (which for some reason I want to read as Shinra) is keeping the anti-gravity futuristic high-speed racing genre alive. 30 tracks and 15 ships are available for you and up to seven friends to race in 1080p 60fps....
