Available December 11th TheMega Mancomic keeps on chugging, and now, the “Curse of Ra Moon” arc is coming to a close in issue #32. This time, Dr. Wily stands with Mega Man as they battle the titular Ra Moon together — something that rarely happens in anyMega Manrelated lore. Archie Comics have given us some sample pages of the upcoming issue, so feel free to browse the gallery below! Personally, I just can’t wait until February, whentheMega Man Xsub-seriesstarts as part of issue #34....

I hope this list doesn’t start a Brawl Three years ago, just before the monumental launch ofSuper Smash Bros. Ultimatefor Nintendo Switch, I gave myself the thankless task of trying torank every fighter based on the game they originated from. It was not easy. In fact, it was a very dumb decision for me to make. Not only were there 59 different games I had to sort through, but I’m pretty sure half of them were justPokémonandFire Emblemtitles, and who can honestly tell the difference between the games in those franchises?...

Mutant needs its blanky? The Forestis a game where you’ll wear armour made out of lizards you’ve beaten to death while friendly cannibals leave piles of dead rabbits in your camp because they think you might be hungry. It’s been in Early Access for quite a while now, and developer Endnight Games has released the patch notes for its huge update to the game. The biggest addition is that the playable map has been made bigger, with new areas added....

Black, white, blue, and now red I feel sorry for anyone who’s out there amassing a multi-colored array of Xbox controllers – they just don’t stop coming. The gamepad’s latest colorway, Pulse Red, is a vibrant red-and-white combo. The Pulse Red controller will be available on July 07, 2025, for $64.99 in “most Xbox markets” and tomorrow, January 12, in China. It’s compatible with your Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, or mobile device....

So,that countdownSquare Enix had everybody pumped for? The one that could have been for a sequel or something similar? Turns out Square Enix was actually getting us pumped for an iOS port. Prepare to rage! Or maybe not. There are hints that this isn’t the onlyTWEWYannouncement cooking in the pot. Fingers crossed that this is a bridge to something even cooler. Just don’t hopetoohigh. The news broke early, ahead of the countdown’s end, thanks to agame soundtrack listingon Square Enix’s online store....

‘Halo Needler controller’ is perfection Halo Infiniteis just around the corner, and I feel like I need to celebrate the occasion with some sort of updated hardware. While this fan-made creation is a little out of my price range, theHaloNeedler controller would suit that need perfectly. Custom made by artist POPeART, it’s of the Series S/X variety for extra flair, and has a great purple/chrome color scheme with blue face buttons/Xbox guide button glow....

Daredevil: Born Againreintroduces Marvel Cinematic Universe fans to Matt Murdock and his refreshingly grounded approach to justice. With all the multiversal madness the MCU’s been peddling the last few years, it’s easy to forget that Matt once led a superhero team dedicated to keeping New York’s streets safe. Born Againbrings a facet of the MCU that was hung out to dry over half a decade ago back into the fold. As a result, storylines and characters that went into stasis with it might also step out of the shadows and become relevant again....

His name is Shawn Bowers and he is creatingthe most important artwork of a generationby drawing the classic Pokemon you know and love, but if they were also Garfields. Here’s the thing: I loveGarfieldas much as Garfield loves lasagna and hates Mondayscombined. As a kid I readGarfieldall the time. They started collecting the strips in these weird, rectangular books, and I started buying those....

I’ve been gaming since the Atari 2600, so I’ve touched quite a few controllers in my time. I remember the long nights ofMario Partywhere the Nintendo 64 controller etched atemporary scar into my hand, and the lengthy battles of getting the cord to rest just right on the Dreamcast controller’s top notch. But even after watching the DualShock 4 grow up and evolve over time, and the “big boy” controllers on the original Xbox get smaller and smaller, I think I have a current favorite in the Wii U GamePad....

Get wacky Before big publishers sought to buy up every license known to man, there was an influx of amazing alternative sports games.Mariohas somewhat kept that torch alive with arcade-like influences over the framework of real sports, but there are decidedly lessNFL Blitz‘s andNBA Jam‘s in the world. These games don’t get enough credit: without them, I probably wouldn’t have learned the basics of many sports, which is knowledge that is still relevant to this day....

Three good gets! Team17 had a trio of announcements for the Nintendo Switch today, and although they’re all ports, it’s nice to hear them confirmed all the same. The big one isYooka-Laylee— although we knew that Playtonic Games was toying with the idea of bringing it to the Switch after canceling the Wii U edition, we have an official confirmation from Nintendo that it’s coming this year. The multiplayer-centricOvercookedis hitting the platform too, with a special edition moniker in tow, followed byThe Escapists 2....

With the festive season upon us it’s time for MMOs to tempt us into ignoring our families and celebrations in favor of new content and Christmas trinkets.DC Universe Onlinehas perfectly captured the holiday spirit with it’s latest update, Season’s Greetings. Larfleeze, the greedy and hideous leader of the Orange Lanterns, has stolen Christmas presents, most likely in an effort to become the Grinch of the DC Universe. Hal Jordan and Sinestro have tasked heroes and villains with getting the presents from Larfleeze and his orange constructs....
