With the 2019 NBA season over, that means that a new installment in the NBA 2K series is right around the corner. Every year the game sees a number of players go up in ratings due to their performance in the previous year, but what players earned the overall upgrade the most from last season? Whether they were playoff performers or emerging superstars, there’s a case to be made for a number of breakout players, but the list must be cut down to 10....

Apex Legends’ Season 6 is currently underway and with it has come some major changes to the game. Along with a new crafting system and a revamp of the armor system, Season 6 also saw the introduction of the game’s 14th legend, the quick-witted modder Rampart. Unfortunately, it seems that new glitch for Rampart has been found, and it could prove quite deadly for those she faces off against. This isn’t the first time that Rampart-related bug has been found since Apex Legends Season 6 has started....

Fortnite has managed to separate itself from its competition in the battle royale genre through unique game mechanics, events, and frequent updates. While some updates have had a mixed reception, a large amount of the work done in the game has helped separate it from a saturated battle royale market and a leak about a future update looks like a continuation of this practice. This leak confirms previous rumors, although it should be taken with a pinch of salt until developer Epic Games confirms the plans....

My Nintendo just added a new batch of rewards, and one of them brings an iconic piece of Super Smash Bros. to your home or office. Even those who casually follow Nintendo know the importance of a seemingly simple white letter with a red seal. We’ve watched for years as various titans of gaming received the invite (and were often faked out when a different character appeared to grab the letter at the last second)....

The year is somehow already almost over! To celebrate another passage around the sun, Netflix is putting its best foot forward with its list of new releases for December 2021. Netflix’s options of original series are quite vast and impressive this month. It starts early on with two finales: Lost in Space wraps up its story with a third and final season on Dec. 1 and is quickly followed by the last go-around for Spanish hit Money Heist....

If you’re a fan of Nier’s hauntingly beautiful music, then we’ve got good news for you. Nier Replicant ver 1.22474487139 and Nier Reincarnation are both getting official soundtracks released next month. We’ve known about Nier Replicant’s soundtrack for a while now.

It’ll also have an artistic cover and a booklet containing commentary from Okabe as well as producer Yosuke Saito, director Saki Ito, and creative director Yoko Taro....

Nightwolf is about to enter the fray of Mortal Kombat 11, and we have caught our first glimpse of his abilities in the gameplay reveal trailer that shows off an impressive toolkit that is sure to mix things up. Also known as Grey Cloud, Nightwolf debuted first in Mortal Kombat 3 as a Nicaraguan Native American shaman and historian. This is the character’s first appearance since Mortal Kombat: Armageddon in 2011, and he looks fantastic, so let’s dive into his abilities....

After nearly two weeks, it seems that Nintendo has finally fixed error code 2123-1502. The issue popped up just over ten days ago after firmware 12.0.3 arrived. When some players tried to download a new game or simply update a game that they already had installed, the error code 2123-1502 would pop up preventing them from completing their download. It seems that the solution has finally arrived. Nintendo Life reported several Switch users saying the issue is fixed on social media after Nintendo performed a server-side update on June 20....

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about how there’s no way in hell I’m going to unnecessarily splash cash on a Switch Pro if it doesn’t come with a hefty performance boost and controllers that actually, you know… work. Joy-Con drift is one of the most brazen examples of anti-consumer practices in the games industry, and the fact it has yet to be rectified is ridiculous. You’re telling me it’s unreasonable to hold off on forking over hard-earned money for a new, supposedly enhanced machine that still makes it so every menu I have to navigate is like a neverending slot machine?...

The people who have been buying annual subscriptions to Nintendo Switch Online since launch will soon need to pay again to continue the service, which means that Nintendo might soon add more retro games to the app to entice fans to re-up their subs. The question now is what console will be added to Nintendo Switch Online next? The Nintendo Switch Online service launched on September 18, 2018. A subscription for this service is required for playing games like Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Super Smash Bros....

Nvidia continues to flesh out its line of new RTX graphics cards as we head into 2021. It seems like the company is ramping its way downward, going from 3070 to 3060Ti, and soon the base 3060 will arrive on store shelves. That’s according to a new report from wccftech, which says that “some users have got their hands on the graphics card several weeks before launch,” along with some retailers offering pre-orders on their websites....

Sony and Microsoft’s upcoming consoles both promise the removal of loading screens, allowing players to jump back into the game faster than ever. Specifically, Sony revealed that the load times on PlayStation 5 would be 100x faster than they currently are on the PS4. While this may seem like a blessing at first glance, there are some downsides to the removal of the load screens that often accompany the load times....

If the Saints Row reboot didn’t quite do it for you and you’re still looking for a crime game to tide you over until the release of GTA 6…well, you’ve got quite a few options. You could even just dive into the world of GTA Online (if you dare). However, for my money (which, in this case, happens to be no money) 2002’s Mafia is still one of your best options....

Zombie games are a dime a dozen in the industry, but there rarely seems to be games about dinosaurs, with one notable exception being Dino Crisis. Simply put, there is a disturbing lack of dinosaur games available on current gaming platforms. A new developer known as Studio Wildcard has recognized this fallacy, and they are striving to correct it. Introducing ARK: Survival Evolved, a game that looks to be the dinosaur game to end all dinosaur games....

Outriders is a shooter game developed by People Can Fly and published by Square Enix. The game garnered massive attention when a demo was released a month before launch, which garnered over 2 million players. A lot of people had high expectations for the game, and for the most part, those expectations were met, save for the game’s bountiful issues, bugs, and server complications. Regardless of that, though, a lot of players still managed to enjoy the game and saw it through to the end....

It hasn’t even been a month since Blizzard released the newest Overwatch map, Junkertown. And yet players are already desperate to play in another new location, with one fan even going as far as to design the map himself, complete with its very own teaser trailer. ‘Cairo’ is a design for a new Overwatch map created by an artist named Joshua Llorente. Put together using 3DS Max, Unreal Engine 4, Substance Painter and Photoshop, the Egyptian-set map looks like the perfect playground for Overwatch players to battle in....
