New Magic The Gathering Core Set Comes To Mtg Arena

While Magic: The Gathering is one of the longest-running physical card games out there, its digital presence has grown big over the past few years. This is mostly centered on Magic The Gathering: Arena these days, which is finally playable on Mac. The core system of Magic: The Gathering translates very nicely to a digital medium, both in terms of visuals and gameplay. Nothing in the lands to mana to cards gameplay needs to be changed for the digital Arena, and it makes the time consuming minutia of the game nonexistent....

New Outriders Trailers Provide Details About Classes Locations Weapons And More

Square Enix continues to hype up the upcoming co-op sci-fi action game Outriders from People Can Fly, coming straight to Xbox Game Pass on release day. The game got two new trailers in case the recent demo across all platforms wasn’t enough to introduce Outriders’ key features to the audience. Outriders is a pretty simple co-op looter shooter (and not a live-service game), so it’s interesting how thoroughly the developers of Bulletstorm and Gears of War acquaint the players with its core gameplay mechanics and lore introduction....

New Pokemon Snap Is Proof That Gen 9 Is Going To Be Huge

I’ve said this a thousand times before, but any non-mainline Pokemon game is an experiment. It’s an experiment in form, in presentation, and usually in fundamental structure, and it’s designed to inform whatever generation is due to launch after it. The most recent example of this was the way in which Let’s Go Eevee & Pikachu had a clear influence on the production of Sword & Shield, introducing overworld sprites, non-exhaustive Legendary encounters, and loads more besides....

New World Is Amazon S Mmo Coming To Consoles

Well, according to New World‘s developers, the odds for a console/mobile port of New World are pretty much non-existent at the moment. In fact, it sounds like the New World team genuinely hasn’t even started to seriously consider the possibility of such ports. “[Consoles are] not something we’ve specced or considered yet,” said New World director Scot Lane in an interview with Eurogamer. “I love console development, I’ve made a lot of console games, [but] on this we’re pushing the graphics as far as we can....

Next Destiny Update Lock Exotics Changes To Crucible Ammo More

Throughout the course of Destiny’s short life span, Bungie has already released a fairly substantial series of updates. They’ve tweaked the way exotic weapons work, improved inventory management, and even made specific elements less time consuming. During that time, however, Destiny’s PvP multiplayer mode, the Crucible, has gone relatively unchanged. Sure, there have been a few balance tweaks here and there, but by and large the make-up of the multiplayer experience has remained the same....

No Xbox One Tv Talk At E3 Conference 3D Model Of Console

Microsoft execs were taken aback by the mixed reactions from the vocal online gaming community to the unveiling of the Xbox One. In flying down gaming press to announce the Xbox 360 successor, the presentation instead focused mostly on TV, a sports deal, a Halo TV series and only one new game (Quantum Break) - and that one didn’t even have gameplay shown. With the PS4 - still shrouded in mystery as well - having been announced by Sony months early with the proclamation that it’s designed purely for the gamer in mind, the buzz was shifting away from Microsoft....

Nos4A2 Season 2 Episode 7 Review Cripple Creek

This NOS4A2 review contains spoilers. NOS4A2 Season 2 Episode 7 In our recent interview with NOS4A2 showrunner Jami O’Brien, she addresses something very surprising. There are people online who have bought into the lies of Charlie Manx. He claims he’s saving children from bad situations, and there are people who say, “Yes, that sounds right,” and look no further than that. Hopefully, his actions in the second season are enough to put fire to those particular lies, but that doesn’t mean Manx isn’t still a character with more dimensions than first suspected....

Nvidia Cmp Explained

Nvidia has always sought to innovate with every generation of its increasingly powerful graphics cards, with newer and boundary-pushing features being added to new GPUs year after year. While most of these feature upgrades such as RTX support and DLSS 2.0 are done in a spirit to give gamers a boost in performance, these GPUs have proven to be useful in a lot of other applications as well. Cryptocurrency seems to be the talk of the hour recently, as miners can be found consistently scalping out a big chunk of available 3000 series GPUs to make more cash....

Onimusha Remaster Releases First Gameplay Trailer

Fans of the Onimusha franchise were pleasantly surprised back in August, when it was announced that the first entry in the series would be remastered early next year sporting HD visuals and other additions. Today, the forthcoming remaster, Onimusha Warlords, is showing off its new-and-improved in-engine graphics and combat mechanics in the first gameplay video.

Outriders Demo How To Turn Motion Blur Off

The release of new gaming technology always comes with unique features for developers to consider putting into their games. Sometimes new features are near-universally praised, like ray-tracing, but other times gamers look for ways to turn off new features that they feel negatively affect their gaming experience. One controversial feature in gaming is motion blur, which aims to accurately depict how human eyes visualize their surroundings while on the move. As gamers test out the new Outriders demo, some may want to turn off motion blur, and certain players have already figured it out....

Overwatch Cheater Shut Down By Jeff Kaplan

Whenever games reach out to players through online multiplayer, they always run the risk of finding untrustworthy players who are willing cheat to get ahead, and Overwatch has been no stranger to having to rein in cheaters. Some games take care of these players, like Call of Duty’s recent 70,000 player ban, but with titles that have been established over a longer time, each ban often comes from individual investigations of players....

Overwatch Teases New Rolling Character

A few days ago, Overwatch posted a strange clip on Twitter of an alleyway plastered with anti-Omnic propaganda. Some fans speculated that this clip was teasing a new map or event, but the team added a new twist to it that has now led many to believe it is actually a tease for the next playable hero, currently known only as Hero 28. In the updated clip, Overwatch fans can see a large rolling ball tumble through the alley....
